We need to mass report this company to Walmart and Walgreens and even the Better Business Bureau. Also get a petition with crazy amount of signatures also. Let's make it happen and stop these scammers! They been getting away with it for years and needs to stop!

[@ShadowRobolox]

I know It is so annoying

[@mikecantin7760]

You clearly don’t know how numbers work. 1 in 10 ***on average***

[@SomeMoms]

I totally agree.

[@Espresso-Coffee-11]

i also agree

[@craigmeighan9974]

@@mikecantin7760 or you clearly haven’t seen Rev’s other videos from the same company, where they always have nothing in. Of course there is a chance of not getting a pull, but I swear he’s opened upwards of 100 packs from this company at 1:10 odds, and not pulled anything! 😩 Others online saying the same too!

[@Pauljepper70]

This Company never fails to disappoint

Not the hero we deserved, but the hero we needed

These packs always look so tempting. Thanks for doing this!

I’m so glad that you’re willing to open these so we don’t have too!

[@courtneykelley516]

I like how you did their mystery packs right along side yours, perfect chance description along side of" look for chase packs!!" Which could be chilling reign

[@calebconger781]

Love and appreciate how you always put in the extra effort for the benefit of the community 💛

[@Sh1noe]

Thanks for the live premiere. Also thanks for showing off this product to protect consumers.

[@Noobilus]

Man apreciate that you risk your money to protect us from being scamed

[@msbrooke0330]

My 6 year old son is just getting into Pokémon and it’s something we have bonded over (all the nostalgic feels for me). Glad you posted this video; I will be passing these up when I buy him some more cards. His favorites currently are the Lost Origin cards.

[@infktiousvenom1061]

Glad you saw this before buying him cards. Wish I saw this beforehand. Wasted 40 bucks on 16 dollars worth of packs....and just like the video. Not a single hit in any of the packs.... I believe they reseal the packs with a machine

[@AmericanPoliceCams]

Rev you haven't learned your lesson on these mystery boxes lol. But at least you're showing us not to buy and we appreciate that so much.

[@SweepRS]

thanks for always keeping these new releases transparent for us

[@financiallytrained]

Pokémon (and Nintendo) have always been about keeping their product and brand protected, so they should go after MJ Holdings for the scams they put out there. Thanks Rev for looking out for us!

[@emanuelabor]

Thank you PokeRev, your loss and educational influence on these packs have saved so much money for your viewers and that’s the biggest gain for your community at the end, thank you!

[@courtneykelley516]

Dude thanks for all you do for the community

[@samiskindacool2599]

The fact that you will go out of your way and spend money to protect us from scams really goes to show you loyalty to your fans!

[@kowabummer]

Thanks for taking the hit for us on this one 😂 can’t believe they can get away with this kinda thing

[@AnimeNerd3294]

Walgreens was never a store to trust with trading cards lol, this video explains that on a whole nother level

[@paradox818]

Mystery packs are always a crazy gamble!

[@I_have_no_name_yet]

Do you think they weigh the packs so that you get all the bad packs

[@ferrisfinds]

These remind me of the mystery packs at the dollar stores. Complete scams, but every time I see a new one I always need to buy one because I low-key have a gambling problem. 😂😭

[@justcallmecraycray7671]

Lol I felt that 😂😂

[@tommyhung5595]

ahhh i guess have the same problem woth pokemon cards

[@ixykix]

Such a shame, my 8yr old always wants mystery packs but I keep saying no to her. We made a Pokémon tcg mystery box for her birthday ourselves so we knew she’d love what was inside. These store packs disappointed so many kids (and adults!)

[@tobiasmuller8473]

Thank you for always exposing those scams!

[@sonofabirch1989]

My word, the content has been flowwwwinnggg from ya, Rev! Thank you for being our teacher/guinea pig for these 'mystery' packs. Definitely steering clear of em.

[@envy1035]

Rev is always out there looking out for us! Keep up the good work!

[@plytee]

Fantastic Video PokeRev, it was an honor to have a chance to witness these companies scamming us and you here protecting us from them. Thank you for always being there for us and always making us smile!❤

[@clementeprado277]

thanks for keeping the pokémon community up to date with everything pokemon going on 👍

[@marcusmccarty7287]

I’ll never be desperate enough to buy something from mj holding companies 😭

Who even is MJ?

Nah he spends 500 on a video and makes 5k

[@MistrkyleGaming]

Ive always been interested in opening mystery packs. Appreciate you reviewing these for potential buyers!

[@zeadux2095]

The fact that these are $9 makes me laugh so hard 🤣

[@kyles0991]

Appreciate you doing this in bulk so others don't do the same. You rock dude!

[@dr.wackymole3996]

I opened 6 of these mystery packs at a Lake Tahoe Cvs and got 2 fusion strike, 3 chilling reign and 1 black and white Plasma blast pack. I was shocked with the black and white pack. And I kept that pack sealed.

[@BigFootFan64]

Thanks for trying these and not just letting us go out and get it

[@eduralia]

Thank you for always showing us what’s in these mystery packs so we know where to put our money. Super appreciated! I wouldn’t be surprised if they weighed the packs too.

[@fireguy1171]

Everyone should be thankful for having companies like iconic giving decent products and rates.

[@andyjohnson8558]

I've walked by these a few times this week, keep passing them up. Don't know how long I'll resist.

[@mscharmz]

Thanks to you I never buy non pokemon products, and I always look for these off-brand companies.

[@arctic_puffin]

Nice video about spreading awareness of these walgreens scams. Thanks for letting everyone know!

[@dangoffard7751]

Even though the mystery packs weren't that good, it's still fun watching and hoping you pull a vintage pack.

[@olicapone]

All these mystery items are terrible and give Pokémon cards a bad name but Rev you are a hero for doing this to raise awareness for the community!!

[@kalikali28]

My husband was able to pull the full art Shining Charizard Vmax out of a random box that had shining fates in it! Love your content!

[@PokeDanBlam]

I agree, my expectations were kinda low but who can resist the Mystery Pack?!

[@JennR87]

Mystery packs make me slightly nervous but a bit excited

[@danielgrebert7730]

The Pokémon company should be stopping these sort of products from hitting the shelf, or getting them removed shortly after the do. Giving them a bad name. Let’s buy the cheapest pack we can and put them inside new package and charge 10x more Completely unfair for the community. Thanks for the heads up Rev!

[@hudsonchen944]

Thanks for making me aware to never trust this company, love your content!!!

[@HyperNexusYT]

Thanks for showcasing these packs, maybe not the WORST thing ever you could buy if you find them in the store, but $20 per online is insane!

[@Blazewolfs]

Mystery boxes have such a draw to them. Thanks for taking the blows Rev!

[@InfernalWisp]

I didn’t expect anything lol. They should put “1 in 5x10^90 chance of a vintage pack”

[@taxpacks9535]

Okay, you have to buy these from the store retailer. If you buy these online, the seller weighs the product. I have bought a total of 37 and have pulled 5 vintage packs. Diamond and pearl, and older.

[@kodycarroll7254]

I always appreciate you taking the bullet rev I just wish it wasn’t as often as it is

[@PA551ON]

And the kids probably don't complain about this either. They think they were either just unlucky or they legitimately get excited for the reverse foil cause they dont know there's better pulls.

[@darknessscythe1]

I got one of those at Walgreens about a year ago and realized they mostly just repacked commons from old sets.

[@ChileMoore]

Thanks for taking the hit for us Rev, hopefully less people get scammed by this company!

[@PokeMom228]

I've never seen these packs around my city before. These are cool

[@williamlewis5868]

I saw these in store today and I was so tempted to buy them - Thanks for exposing them!

[@SW-hd8dt]

Thanks for investigating these, Rev! Great vid as always. Jealous of the Pokecave!

[@bendyer9893]

I've seen/heard anecdotal stories of people getting vintage packs from these, but the few times I have given into the temptation and bought them I've gotten absolutely nothing worthwhile out of them.

[@infktiousvenom1061]

Most people that post stories of getting a "vintage" pack simply grab an old pack from their collection, throw it in & film themselves opening the mystery box with their pack inside to make it "look" like they scored. Which basically hurts the community because it gives false hope you might get one, but a cheap company like Mj holding will not throw a $300 pack inside a $10 mystery pack...

[@JOEPISCOOL]

Thank you for exposing these companies, imagine if you’re a little kid and buying this with all your money.

[@asapbuggz]

Since I don't have any good places where I am. An my son loves pokemon. Walgreens is my best resort for packs. 🥺 Plus it racks up my points for Walgreens. Lol. He loves any type of pokemon card. Especially the shinys . Great contact man. 💯

[@immiediggspkmn9633]

I don't think I'd buy any mystery boxes or packs now without you saying they are good first!

[@ntrib]

These mystery packs are always intriguing, but usually a let down

[@Frosty2014]

Thank you so much for sharing and watching out for the community!!! God bless!!

[@garethpowell9665]

This really helps Rev, I have fallen a few times over the years. Great info as usual.

[@jtipping93]

Glad you make us in the community aware of scamming like this

[@Animejeff]

I am so sorry you had to endure that complete trash. Fair play to you for warning us of their deceit. Pokémon inc should look into their dealings with companies like this as it can and will damage reputations.

[@notrinz8707]

Packs weren’t a w, I wouldn’t buy them but good video over all! 😊

[@Zaphirod]

Appreciate you saving so many from getting scammed with all the third-party vendors.

[@Dragon13ringer]

Feel that mystery packs only are good if you buy it from people that custom made them, not from the big store companies. Good you checked for people 🤙🤙

[@micheller2139]

I didn’t even think that people don’t blame the companies but just the stores, that’s a huge flaw in business…

[@maverick9194]

I wish they would make these better. I'd love for companies to do something like this but with real vintage packs.

[@justinmangiacasale2794]

The reverse holo’s were fire in these

[@jibrilmohamed9199]

These packs are never worth it when they arent from the actual pokemon company. Thank you for checking them out for us!!!

[@kimstoll9261]

These videos are always so cool.I love how you test stuff for us and tell us if they are ripoffs.

[@robinzeddies1049]

Dude, thanks for opening this stuff too 🙏 Great Community work Bro 👊🏼

[@Zia_Rob]

So glad I came across your channel awhile back, otherwise I never would have known to avoid anything from MJ Holding Co.

[@blands0019]

You stay uploading the best videos/content for us all to enjoy man!!! Unfortunately all these mystery packs typically suck and aren't usually worth what they cost. The expensive mystery packs you did a video on that was like $150 a pack or a box was pretty swesome and you had some good pulls there but these were junk Unfortunately!!

[@bryangar33]

Still smashing that like button! Thanks for taking the tab on this so we don’t have too

[@mike93610]

i wouldnt doubt mj holdings would weigh the boosters, keep heavy ones and sell the light ones for 10$

[@tomhector1165]

Thinking this is gonna be some BS. Rev saves the day again for the pokemon community. What a guy! 😎

[@RandumbNess13]

I've pulled the Charizard VMAX twice in the last two weeks on Shining Fates. I couldn't believe it!

[@phoebehopper3905]

Our hero for exposing them 🙌🏼

[@JesseGray-ce6fi]

They actually do have vintage packs as many people got them like KZbinrs, it’s just hard

[@buzzpeep8695]

They just put the first edition pack on the packaging to lure people into buying them

[@Ultra_777_]

It’s pretty good but it seems that it’s hard to get the old school cards

[@cryptolyp]

I just love every "official" mystery box.

[@madelinehessling1091]

I always skip these mystery boxes, except the PokeRev packs of course!

[@ezrawinget8109]

Oh gosh that was not good. Thanks for checking these out for us Rev! It really helps us to be able to watch your videos instead of finding out ourselves. You da man🤙

[@OGPokemann]

It’s crazy to me that not only are the foil cards bad but then the pull rates from the packs are also so bad

[@donaldturner3526]

Thank you Rev for doing these types of videos to potentially save new collectors and old collectors alike from being scammed and Lossing hard earned money.. much blessings to you and all the viewers here.. love the content keep up the amazing work..

[@logantitchener6482]

Thanks for doing this! I'm always SO tempted to buy those 😩

I’m glad you opened these so we don’t have too!
