I Spent $200 on Retail MTG - Will I Make It Back?

Purchase majority from various Walmart locations but also snuck in a buy from Meijers retail. I didn't think this was the smartest thing to do with $200 but many of us have made similar decisions. The question is, how dumb was this decision or am I a genius!?

The amount of packaging for one booster is astonishing

[@brackkirchner3604]

When the collector packs were the same size as draft packs we'd get the target to sell them to us for draft pack prices. Cause "how much for one pack??? It said 4.95" and they'd be like "that make perfect sense" we knew that wouldn't last

[@aspicyasian9387]

Vorinclex brings the value single handedly doubling. As he do

[@lodevdb4179]

That macho man intro was the cream of the crop brother

[@slysi84]

Turn 3 kills in standard. I'd say the power level is doing okay in standard. Its the only format I play tbh. Love ya Joey!! The content has been fire lately, defo noticed the extra effort you are putting in to your content. Really appreciate it man. Have a hug from the UK!!! Skadoosh!!!

[@VaultedLLC]

I wish I could like all your videos, and triple like all your videos where you price cards. (Battles with cards priced (common uncommon over a dollar ect) I cant remember how many subs you had when I joined but glad youre doing it full time!

[@zackyounger603]

That Vorinclex made my day for you, man! The Ikoria commander deck is decent, too. The rest, though, was tough to watch lol.

[@ArrayChunkie]

I would love to see you open old collections - I know financially it's not the best, but it would be great to see if there are any gems out there lurking in collections

[@clelvis225]

there are, without a doubt.... 10 years ago it was easy pickings....nowadays, it's getting harder and harder....

[@obadijahparks]

Killer cosplay. On scute swarm level cards. Imagine getting extra of them randomly popping off from the beginning. I might need to buy a play set of this card for my lotus cobra/scute swarm deck.

[@benjira]

New to your channel. Haven't kept up with these new sets. But your references and voices. Shout out 90's. You're better then the art.

[@ericwinter3891]

i have been noticing more variety and an overall better attitude, appreciate you gem

[@chelseailoveuu]

if you haven't watched EVERY macho man interview you are missing out lol. The cream always rises to the top

[@tattedmedic]

Tip: If you’re *only* looking for value, only buy SET Boosters, not Draft Boosters. If you’re itching to crack open any packs, lower your expectations as Draft Boosters are meant to just play Draft.

[@fsasguy87]

This comment should be top of the list!! Set boosters are pretty much watered down Double Masters, but with 1/3 of the price and 1/3 of the chance. Set boosters are the way to go! I only buy draft boosters for the older expansions where set boosters weren’t available.

[@MtgLonestar]

Gotta love guy's like Joey, cleaning the shelves of all the Walmarts within 50 miles to make money on KZbin, enjoy!

[@medicine2202]

Dude I'm telling you that your content is great !!! I'm always excited to see a new vid from you.

[@JoeyMossBBG]

[@salvadorlopez5961]

I enjoyed watching this too much. You’re comments had me rolling. 😂

[@JoeyMossBBG]

Thx Salvador

[@lukebobb]

I have definitely been enjoying your videos lately man.

[@Brian-DragonFire]

I remember when Black Hole Sun won best rock song. Then at a high school dance I was dancing with my soon to be girlfriend all night only for her to go to the rest room BHS started playing and in shock I saw the dance floor slow dancing to it. Then some chick grabbed me and started slow dancing with me I was like a deer in headlights. Still to this day it Wired’s me out😄 keep up the great videos Loving them.

[@sonsysy4195]

All that packaging just for one booster pack??? So much waste

[@brianfalker7467]

I know I couldn't believe an entire box for one pack. That box could holds 6 ez.

[@SparePartsBud]

Moss Man Randy Savage over here.

[@anthonycobb4867]

Chainer was the commander of my favorite built edh deck

[@PawzBrownMTG]

Ouch, that's some rough openings but fun to watch so we don't have to spend our money.

[@andreamanzella4129]

Tha's bad bad luck, man... the video was cool, though! Love watching openings! Thanks for the effort putted in those, Joy!

[@Vapor454]

Modern is huge in San Antonio TX You can play Modern 6 days out of the week here.

[@kekklerod]

Definitely noticing the improvement in content! Keep the unboxing up!

[@JoeyMossBBG]

Ty Shaggy

[@totallynotmyles69]

joey I really hope you pull something special!

[@zacharyyoungblood5634]

I find it oddly satisfying watching you open packs. I also watch your videos on 1.5x speed. I feel like you talk slow 😅🤣

[@JoeyMossBBG]

Interesting!

[@zacharyyoungblood5634]

@@JoeyMossBBG I watch 90% of all my KZbin videos that way. None the less I love your content

[@foramoreperfectamerica8490]

Also starting with MOM, Draft Packs will have 2 rares or mythics per pack.

[@jordanhooper-ic3vb]

videos are good as always. good pulls funny jokes.

[@matthewgouley7172]

When it comes to your videos, for me they are always kinda fun to watch. Also when it comes to opening packs it's all just a gamble, for me the big question as a modern player I always ask myself why do I try to open the packs to get the cards I want when there are some powerful cards in previous sets that go for a lot lower in price? Yeah when it comes to the price guide for cards I find it all kinda weird, it could be the same card but at different prices for the sets. Or the card store doesn't buy the cards for the price might drop but they want you to buy the card while it's at a higher price. When it comes to commander yeah card store really push it, I don't play there is nothing on the game that I enjoy. The guys still were like come on got to try it nope peer pressure does not affect me. On the opening packs, I don't know how it happens but prerelease kits I do so well, I sold some cards got a little more than I thought and the card store did card for card kinda deal which got me more which I was happy about so I got two prerelease kits, in one kit got a mondrake a hive that artifact creature a Tyvar Kaya which I was kinda happy about, for the other one pulled one mondrake the rest was eh. So never really know how the pack opening will go. If I was to sell the cards back would I get my money back, that's when the player part and collector part come into play. How many cards actually hold their value after the reprints or how they get graded or by who which card store you sell them to. The price part is kinda weird. Anyways enjoyed the opening of the packs have fun.

[@poodlenoodlesoup1]

"I like that word 'crescendo') Crescendo:: "to get louder"

[@dylanrappana8034]

I had a "promo card" literally be a double faced card marker

[@foramoreperfectamerica8490]

We do not play Standard at my LGS. We do draft at FNM, we play Commander when we're just hanging out, and Pioneer on Saturdays(usually the turnout is pretty good for pioneer given the small size of my area)

[@shawnosnap3462]

Gotta make sure to support your local Walmart ;)

[@emptybookdan]

Great video - thanks for all the openings recently.

[@pnwlassen5655]

Joey, I really hope you pull somethin special...... If I start watching a video I always finish it. Even if the video is long and boring (not talking about your videos I'm talkin about some of the 1-2 hour videos)

[@josephpaine5423]

The videos have been great lately! Thanks for the content! :D

[@jasonsutherland3496]

Oh yeah Hogan. I'm gonna call Ricky the dragon steamboat and we're gonna team up on you ohhhyeeeaaaahhhh. WELL YOU KNOW MEAN JEAN, I TELL YA BROTHER.

[@BenjaminsDebt]

Loving the videos, its noticed the effort 😂

[@JoeyMossBBG]

Glad you like them!

[@MaLordWotan]

Wish my Walmart stocked more than..... LoTR collector packs. That sold out within 20min of hitting the shelf lol. And they were priced over TCG so idk what is happening.

[@user-rj8ur3xl9j]

I bought a box of SoC, Neon Dynasty & Phyrexia AWBO was my best with 10 mythics, previous had 8 and previous before had 8. Fun pulls but nothing earth shattering.

[@imkizuki]

That's one of the main reasons I quit playing standard personally, a lot of keeping up with cards and spending all this money on them just to play maybe once every FNM.

[@joem3009]

That is too much packaging for one crappy collector pack 😂

[@NonComics]

I’ve also bought a lot of cards from Walmart not gonna lie. I’ve got some awesome pulls.

[@aquickchatwith...245]

Meijer usually has quite a few commander cubes here recently

[@Rychlloyd21]

Good luck may the pack gods be on your side

[@redwoolsocks]

Few times I've heard you mention over printing. I don't think there is such a thing. Print the crap out of these cards!! They should all be available for everyone to pick up instead of cardboard costing $20+ for 1 card.

[@KrisPSouls9258]

You had a few awesome pulls bud. I hope I pull that Vorinclex foil I like the art on those concept cards whatever they are called. Yeah you don't want that just send it to me. It's only worth about a dollar. 😂 Hope you have a awesome day. 🤘 and yeah that foil at the end that's new for sure.

[@ChrisPittman-dz3ct]

Walmart and Target aren't the ones stocking the shelves with cards, and they aren't the ones who makes the profit

[@stephenbarnett5533]

Love yourself man keep up a great work

[@JoeyMossBBG]

Thanks! Will do!

[@nothiiiiiiiing]

130$ for 2 Collector boxes?

[@shorgoth]

I bought a box of dominaria remastered.... all I got is a few incubators... didn't make 80$ back on my 420$ (Canadian money)

[@GhostlyGhost333]

I tried looking for some all will be one earlier today. Completely sold out at the Walmart I went to. I asked an employee and he said two guys came earlier in the week and bought all they had of the set. They did have a couple dominaria remastered, so that was nice I suppose.

[@jl5177]

Man i stopped playing standard yeaaaars ago lol, painful unboxings bro 😢

[@dollors1]

I play MTG Arena standard casually and I think Phyrexia is an unfun set to play and play against.

[@kendarsin]

I just got done opening the same exact trash omega dominaria collector pack. Its like a gut punch. Atleast I only opened one. 🙂

[@jinxsiemcdeath6250]

Order the new Magicfest bundle for $269 and see if you can make the cost back with the BRO, ONE and Mystery boxes

[@darrengiles3883]

Wizards, the masters of wasteful packaging. When will they learn.

[@olsgtchewie6913]

When everything is special, nothing is….sadly

[@vajazzlerthis]

They put them in those big boxes to prevent theft 😂

[@alexdoran527]

MACHO MAN BADBOYGAMING SAYS THE CREAM OF THE CROP IS EVOLVING WILDS OOOOOH YEEEEAH

[@CompleatedMagic]

I bought the big Phyrexian collector booster box. What a bunch of garbage… low low pulls. I don’t think it even cleared $40.

[@citizentuck]

The two collectors boxes where not $200 the two alone?

[@pokemontvunlimited7246]

Dominaria Remastered has been really rude to me.

[@aka_rook]

Let's do this!

[@BobbyVans-hf8mq]

Unfinity is the biggest waste of money especially retail packs I literally opened hundreds of packs chasing them shock lands only to get one extended art breeding pool

[@pnwlassen5655]

The commander looked like it was cut weird at the top right Was it a miss cut card?

[@MattHarb]

How much are those Commander cubes? Never seen them before

[@chriskamienski5356]

Isnt urabrask forge like over 10 bucks not .25cents

[@KyXnline]

0:26 I'm placing my bet right now that he nets $25-30 from the cards he opens

[@KyXnline]

You did much better than I thought, so W c: MUCH BETTER DAMN

[@syndieouellet2763]

I strangely got way better pulls from ONE draft, then set booster.

[@wut3358]

RIP Macho Man

[@jordanhooper-ic3vb]

alright everything I watch the Walmart videos they make me want to go and buy my own stuff

[@ivarcollison5965]

Joey I really hope you pull something special out of that .....

[@davidcavanaugh938]

Can you get shock lands in the Unfinity draft boosters ? I thought it was only collector packs ?? Any one open any in a draft pack/box ? Thanks for the info

[@ericnelson3322]

My Wallmart is no longer stocking MTG.

[@Ryguy0707]

I just don't think draft boosters have any real value😂

[@natewalker6887]

Sometimes you win. Most times you lose lol

[@armageddon28]

I feel like trolling you with a certain "S* word in reference to that Vorinclex pull but i won't this time. Instead I'll just say congrats and call it a day

Don't hate on my boy venerated rotpriest lmao I don't want what happened to my boy field of the dead to happen to him

[@vajazzlerthis]

Nobody can afford to keep up with standard

[@MTGAttitude]

Vorinclex is legit

[@nathanh1285]

You got hosed.

[@zeichen95]

Card single prices dropping is one major risk in buying these random retail packs.

[@MrTrozzo91]

Standard is dead in paper because of arena. The current standard format is actually pretty great and well balanced. The issue on price isnt power, it's the amount of printing and the fact that every card basically has a prettier version.

[@jambobbyb124]

You will not..

[@sdoren_9074]

This reminds me of a more interesting mtglion "opening" lmfao skadoosh
