Your kindness does NOT GO UNNOTICED! you will be blessed 10fold when you least expect it, bless you for being a amazing vendor

[@ericofficially]

Idk shit about pokemon cards, nor do i normally watch this content, but man i love the energy. I came from watching the shorts and now just watching the longer content. Keep doing what you doing and bringing the energy you got.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks so much for watching and subbing!

[@HenkZ-po4fw]

I'm in exactly the same boat.. This is awesome

[@beforeiforgetballo]

Same here

[@NinoVincentArmecin]

Same here man. For some reason I find myself watching this stuff even if I'm not into these cards.

[@scotx1307]

Same. You remind me of my old comic dealer at the flea market, same vibes. Always helping the kids and undercutting his own prices to make deals, just to make people happy. That's why hobbies like this are great. Keep up the good work man.

[@eliasgustavsson9296]

For being such a small channel you are doing an amazing job! You really have a way with people and it’s really fun to watch 😄

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much!!

[@pao7417]

I agree. It’s a breathe of fresh air really.

[@bionicmuslum]

It makes me so happy seeing him give cards to the kids you know those kids are going to remember that for a long time

[@SleepySnorlax13]

Of course I find you and start being a subscriber after you leave my local area

[@mirnajaf438]

Small channel naaah...BIG heart yaaah!

[@Als_Attic989]

Came for the cards stayed for you. Contagious energy. Keep doing what you do for the kids.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much!

[@xxwh1tenutsxx371]

this man is like ash in real life,looking to help others and bring joy and smiles to their faces.

[@CloudBrickStudios]

I love these ones. Just so many people, yet you treat them with respect and sacrifice any card to make their day 🙏

[@CoopsCollection]

I had a BLAST at the Tidewater Card Show in Midlothian / Richmond, Virginia. I hope you enjoy this vendor POV. It's long at almost 2 hours but I had so many amazing interactions with people I didn't want to cut folks out! I'll be making more KZbin shorts from this event as more easily digestible content so you don't have to commit so much time to watching my videos. Thank you again for all the support!

[@holden8698]

i’ve been addicted to these vendor vids for like a week now and yours are just a completely different vibe. Great people person and just seem like a great guy in general

[@CoopsCollection]

I appreciate that! I haven't been sure how long or short to make them but i've had such good interactions with people I just want to share them all!

[@willjohnson5843]

​@CoopsCollection Hey bro, definitely keep these vids long. I love putting them on and just watching to chill

[@MrDigitalWorks]

No way two hours passed that quickly! ... I'm absolutely not into Pokemon but this was joyful to watch! Also kind of relaxing. Keep it up! Greets from Austria

[@CoopsCollection]

Wow, thank you so much for watching!

[@HenkZ-po4fw]

It's so unfortunate this is just your 2nd POV. I want to binge this whilst working. It's soo relaxing and good to know people can be so friendly towards eachother.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks so much for watching! I’m definitely going to keep going to as many shows as I can

[@00alexalexalex]

just started watching your stuff, i typically stick to watching hockey card collectors but when i was a kid i watched so many pokémon card collecting videos. i absolutely love your energy, you’re so nice and friendly and your interactions with kids is what makes me appreciate you so much more.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much for the kind message!

[@00alexalexalex]

@@CoopsCollection thank YOU for being a wonderful human! i'll absolutely be watching much more of you!

[@Prettynpnk28]

Always love seeing you interact with people. So kind and friendly. I don’t even know anything about cards.

[@jacobgill3661]

58:05 The little girl in the corner just appearing and staring at the camera was so funny

[@CoopsCollection]

Yes! I need to make a short video with her in it

[@vzovibes2328]

She death stared the camera for like a minute straight no blinking lmao

[@GigiScorcia]

A potential meme

[@Osurne]

Im glad someone timestamped it. I couldnt help but giggle at it

[@Angelwrites]

hahaha

[@CrashNTheBoys2002]

I love these long videos, even if you don’t make a sell or anything. Your interactions with fellow enthusiasts is such a joy, nothing more enjoyable than just having a conversation with someone that loves the same things as you.

[@CoopsCollection]

It really is a ton of fun to be able to interact with other people who enjoy the collecting hobby. If I sell a few things great, if not, no better way to spend an afternoon

[@robzza_official]

I don't even colect or watch pokemon that much but this guy is the best on the world for giving cards to kids it definitely means a lot to them

[@melsyoutube]

i can’t believe i’ve gone from never watching/playing pokémon, to discovering your shorts, to now watching 2 hour videos of you selling/trading these cards lmao. that’s the power of a good personality!

[@winxster.]

Who knew that a kid whose just looking to complete his Celebrations Cards will become a legendary moment. Wyatt is the prince of the Coopa Troopas! ♥ You're the man Coop!

[@clevelandtileyedie3310]

The pure joy you put on these kid’s faces.. you are a genuine good hearted human. Im having a son in literaly 5 days and I could only pray people like you could make his day like you make theirs 🤘🏽

[@larewoods8938]

I love how good you are with the kids! I'm a crossing guard at my towns elementary school, and started collecting Pokémon cards because it was big with them, and I normally either trade or just give them cards that they want. Their smiles are payment enough for me. I even give them Pokémon packs at the end of term for each A they bring me as an extra incentive to do good in school.

[@OhioWanderer]

Super glad KZbin suggested you to me. Your positivity and love of tcg stuff is going to really inspire those younger people you interact with. I'm excited to dig into all of your content and see more stuff in the future!

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much for checking out my videos!

[@Kyle_R_Wolfe]

that girl just looking right at the camera for 2 or three minutes was great. lol

[@CoopsCollection]

She was so funny! Noticed the camera and then stared it straight down haha

[@Haminator]

then the excitement in her eyes after getting the card was priceless!

[@psykho26]

She looked right thru my soul .

[@peepopalaber]

Found you through the short, you are a great person, really fun to watch your vendor POV. I hope to come next year to the US to buy some slabs, maybe we see us. Much love from germany!

[@CoopsCollection]

I hope so too! Danke!

[@birdtarmac]

That last one, the look on the kid's face... That was incredible. I felt the same way he did, when Coop said he'd give him both of the cards.

[@pokedaddycards]

Man when you gave away that Sylveon it brought a tear to my eye. Subscribed

[@madflanker]

I was playing this video in the background while I was opening packs, and ended up watching the whole 1hr and 49 minutes of footage. I really respect the way you handle yourself, and admire your kindness and generousity to people, especially little kids. Instantly made a subscriber and supporter out of me! Wishing you the very best in your endeavours!

[@samuelwoodell4328]

Followed seeing you be so kind to kids. Great work!

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you!

[@CostcoFries]

Man again Coop! You’re one of the best people I’ve seen in this community. You’re the reason why I love the community and how Pokemon should be enjoyed by everyone. Just how you’re as a person, interacting with people. You’re in it more to chat and have a good time is awesome. I’m from Canada but one day I’ll definitely visit you my man! 😄

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks so much for your kind message! I appreciate you watching and taking the time to leave a comment

[@kna_8910]

That final deal was pure heart. Prevented the kid from a tough choice and took the loss money wise in the deal

[@CoopsCollection]

I gotta respect a guy who has good taste in art! Both those cards are awesome

[@carlbenfield2971]

I've never bought or owned any cards but you popped up on my feed and i have to say that you and all the people in this community are all awesome people.

[@nickislam2940]

My 6 year old autistic son found your channel and absolutely loves it. And now I'm hooked on watching and I don't know anything about Pokemon lol

[@Nako3]

I would love to just stand there and admire all the cards!

[@ashwinmenon6433]

I am not a Pokémon fan, nor am I a card collector, nor do I like watching baseball, have never watched hockey, but daaamn. These wholesome interactions got me binging this whole channel 😂 Look at the Pokémon fan dads all happy for their budding Pokémon fan kids! I think for at least the next half an hour I am going to involuntarily be super nice to people because of how much I’ve been watching your niceness to people, Coop. 😂

[@ella-minnow-pea4568]

Hey, saw your reels on FB, the way you interact with collectors is relaxing, greetings from the Philippines

[@CoopsCollection]

Hey, thanks!

[@Jcostner]

Thanks for uploading new content. I really enjoy watching you interact. Can’t wait to see this full video ❤

[@louisstark4364]

I haven’t collected Pokémon cards since I was a kid, I stumbled across this channel on Insta. I have to say this is the most wholesome group of people I have ever seen! Nobody judges each-other, you all just love the hobby and appreciate each other. I wish there was more of this in the Uk, tempted to start buy cards myself 😂 love it everyone stay awesome 👏🏼

[@asuramp3]

Hey Coop! I just wanted to say as a former Pokémon card collector and youngling myself, I really admire how great and gentle you are with the younger audience. The way you are so informative, supportive, and helpful really warms my heart and this is the type of content I like watching, even if I’m not active in collecting anymore. The gestures you do and give really makes my day, and I know that you’re making their day as well. I grew up as a kid that didn’t really understand collecting that much, but I always had my Dad to confide in who was always on the lookout for good card deals whenever he might’ve come across one. The way you treat everyone really brings back memories of that honestly, and I just know that you’re going to make these kids look up to their time collecting in such a high regard as they age. Either way, your content has actually inspired me to want to get into Pokémon collecting again, do you-or anyone for that matter-have any advice on where to start? I have heard rumours about the packs as of late not being that good, so what are some things I could purchase or look into that would provide good success? Thank you so much for making my day!

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a positive comment!

[@vamountainman2512]

As only a VERY small scale, amateur collector, I would recommend doing alot of research on what product is available and do what brings you the most joy. Think about your ultimate goal. Do you want sealed product for shelving or opening? Do you want loose or graded cards? Do you seek set completion or do you simply wish to collect the art and characters you enjoy most? You can save LOADS of money by just buying singles of art you enjoy as opposed to opening product and hoping for something you enjoy or of value. Hope my rambling helps 😅

[@kingpofficial]

The dad and son hanging out, just collecting and enjoying the hobby made my heart so warm. Felt like two kids🫶🏻

[@bigbearswoodyard]

I'm going to have to come see you at a card show soon! I'm about 2 hours away in Chesapeake. 😊

[@CoopsCollection]

Can't wait! I actually lived in Chesapeake when I was a kid!

[@eddiedrummond9986]

58:07 shoutout to this girls commitment to the staredown 😂

[@blkbirdrook]

Not a collector but subbed to your channel. Enjoyed watching you interact with your customers and love how you make them the most important person in the room. Charisma and genuine. Thanks for the vid.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks for watching and subbing!

[@BlueDaemonful]

20:00 is so telling of how wholesome Coop is. He doesn't do this to squeeze a buck and dime out of a trade from some unsuspecting kid. He does it out of the love of the hobby and to be social. Mad respect. I've really been considering getting back into Pokemon especially Scarlet and Violet 151 for nostalgia xD

[@Jurr0130]

Such great vibes in these vendor POV videos. Keep up the great work Coop! 🤘

[@kathyb395]

Over the last few days i have seen a bunch of your shorts. I just wanted to say thanks for making those kids day. They will remember what you did for them for years to come.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you!

[@arveanas]

I barely know anything about Pokemon and haven't watched any shows or played any of the games but I came across a KZbin short of yours with the little kid who came back to tell you he completed their collection. Loved your energy. ❤

[@Femme_Elf]

I love hearing his voice change when he starts talking to a kid. You can tell that he's really kind. And the way he smiles when he can give a kid a card they're looking for for free, it's so clear he really cares and is genuinely getting joy from making people happy. Keep doing what you do man, you're putting happiness into the world.

[@skandleus7266]

Man, this video has it all. Love your energy, love the honesty, love the realness of it all! Glad you came up in the shorts algorithm, was an instant sub. Please keep doing this!

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much! I’m glad I popped up on your feed

[@chiking7071]

man i cant believe i watched through the whole video. dude you are so wholesome, we need more welcoming people like you in our hobby! keep it up

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much for watching the whole thing!

[@janmaglipon9954]

Refreshing to see not just about making deals and money. You can really feel this guy loves the hobby

[@Archean]

I saw a video on Reddit and came here. Subbed straight away. You are a rare person in this kind of hobby that is in it for the love of it.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you for subbing and for your kind words!

[@helpingphriendly]

i logged in to youtube just to say how awesome you are. i go to card shows to just chat with people who enjoy the hobby. Karma will catch up with you! you're a nice person and passionate about what you love.

[@CoopsCollection]

Wow, thank you!

[@sarahhenderson1714]

I grew up loving Pokémon and watching the show all the time. I got a couple cards when I was little but never got into collecting or playing the game. Your video came up as a reel and I genuinely love watching your long videos. Such nostalgia and so much to learn. Your energy and personality is genuine and contagious. Thank you for being you and I look forward to watching all your content.

[@lostpokejay]

the pokemon community and giving back to the kids is so fricken awesome!!! great videos man!!! keep it up

[@WuntaykTimmy1]

Again, my appreciation for life grows every time I watch your videos 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿

[@robbo508]

Omg , not being a collector or knowing anything about these cards, just love the interactions with people and how generous you are coop, subscribed straight away !

[@eneeaflutur4096]

The old lady was so sweet and genuine, please share if she ever see something from her collection

[@RyanO11088]

Don’t skip ads with this dude even though i know nothing about pokemon but the real interactions makes me happy

[@Hutchymum]

Love the energy, not ripping people off and generosity with the kids and making them happy...im old, was never allowed to collect things...really wanting to collect pokemon cards now since I've been playing pokemon go on my phone...just don't know where to start and how

[@frankiejones3846]

Know nothing about Pokémon. But you're a great guy. You will be blessed beyond belief for being such a caring, generous person. Keep it up

[@NeytAkyide]

really nice of you gifting to the kids some cards and talk to the people, is somehow relaxing to watch while drawing, also i would see the cards you got, maybe u can show us what card you start of youre vendor both at beging of a show, looks like u got some cool cards, also intresting the dragonball ones u told

[@CoopsCollection]

So I actually had recorded a little intro with showing the cards in the cases but the video got messed up. I’ll make sure to include it in the next one!

[@flyl3af.mp4]

Youre such a cool vendor, as someone whos loved pokemon and ookemon cards for a while but still learning, youd make me feel so safe at your station

[@sahilgusain9268]

I'm saying this whenever I meet coop I'll give him a hug bro he is the sweetest person I've ever seen. I'm just amazed by your nature bro❤❤❤ keep up the good work

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you so much for such a kind comment!

[@jellygoontv]

I can't get enough of this... I don't even care about pokemon.. but you so nice to kids I love it

[@CheckitMedia]

Like the energy and the overall video and audio. The interactions are gold. @Coop, i wish i could share my collection with you. I also collect what i like and i have a few sweet binders full.

[@Rkylim83]

Become your fan after seeing how nice you are to people at the card show even though I am not a Pokémon collector. You earned a new subscriber 👍🏻

[@bockscar]

Great to see someone make an effort to help the next generation of collectors get started! Just subscribed!

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks for the sub!

[@AndyLuckers]

1:34:23 'you liked dragonite' - 'good memory!' He says, whilst wearing a shirt with the biggest dragonite I've ever seen on it. 😁

[@chasemarquez7620]

idk how these vendor videos started popping up for me but man youre gna get me addicted to this hobby lmao brings back so many memories! if only i still had all my binders from 12 years ago

[@StumbIingforward]

Good to see that being a good person is still considered super cool and deserving of respect by at least some people out there. This is so awesome. Didn’t think I could get this much out of watching a guy be a vendor at a card show. Also, you’ve now introduced me to those darn DBZ cards. I know nothing about them, or any DBZ cards for that matter. But after looking some up, I know one thing, the most important thing. They look damn cool lol. Already have some on my list I’ll definitely be getting, eventually.. but man are they sweet. I don’t know how “regular” DBZ cards look but I get the feeling they for the most part don’t look as awesome as those. Great stuff man

[@KevinC1990]

Honestly.. i watched a short video when you gifted a young fan a free card.. instantly subscribed.. im a pokemon fan but dont collect.. but youre a pure hearted man.. keep it up

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks so much for subbing!

[@holydashi]

KZbin algorithm somehow is giving me your shorts of your conventions transactions and its nice watching you make many kids have a great time.

[@notreallylily]

so wholesome Idk nothing about pokemon cards but I watched till the end - SMILING THE WHOLE TIME! Ahhh I just love this

[@CoopsCollection]

Thank you for watching!

[@Ti7Vk3y]

"Egyptian Mew" lmao. That brings back memories. 😁

[@neversuperfennecwarrior9486]

Sport card collectors, Pokémon card collectors, all card collectors, we are just all a bunch of geek in our own way, and it’s awesome!

[@813qwertyuiop]

Very rarely do I subscribe but your kindness forced my hand

[@diseaseburden4962]

Love how you treat your customers :) Some great people at these shows!

[@lscizml]

obviously its cool what you do for the children, but I just cant help but think about the parents. all a (good) parent wants to do is help their child create a memory. and you definitely are a key component to something like that. I'm 32 and my father will still bring up cool things that happened at expos when I was 10.

[@markstheebomb]

I’m here for the interactions. I know very little about Pokémon. I had to subscribe just because you seem like a genuine person with an awesome attitude. Cheers mate.

[@CoopsCollection]

I appreciate that!

[@noo3iesrues121]

Yo just started watching your channel and you are such an amazing person man! Giving free cards to kids is definitely something I don’t see everyday. Keep up the work dude !

[@drip1orddior]

coop man i know you hear this all the time but thank you bro, not really sure how to explain it but your videos really help me maintain a positive outlook on life. never stop being you broski

[@mariexx__]

I discovered your channel some days ago ! I absolutely love this type of videos, please do more ! I’ll binge watch the others 🤭

[@AKBoarder22]

I have no interest in pokemon. But i am a big fan of small talk and having cheerful conversations with stranger. This video is very pleasing to see kind human interactions. I also am a big fan of seeing fathers supporting their kids in their interests. Great stuff 👍

[@erwincandelaria5438]

Love the cute girl doing the staring at the camera. I'm not into Pokemon as I played MtG way back 90s and early 2000s, but surely I became a fan of Coop. How I wish we had someone like you in the MtG community.

[@APlayToRemember]

Just watched this entire video and the last deal at the end had me smiling like a kid again, thank you for keeping this hobby the way it was always meant to be

[@mac22122003]

I only collect sports cards but the way you make the kids just light up in your shorts I had to come Sub Keep it up man

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks so much! I'm slowly learning a little more about sports cards at these shows as pokemon is definitely the minority when it comes to vendors, at least at this local card show

[@98802ohhey]

20:20 and they did pop up in a video! Love the wholesome content.

[@captainstabbin4172]

I came across one of your shorts and I really enjoy the vendor pov its really neat and your a very generous fella you've earned a subscriber!

[@johnramirez8603]

I know absolutely nothing about what you are doing but I have watched every second of content you have. Pure genuine energy and what the world needs more of. Coooooooooooooop

[@cyphlee4874]

i dont even watch pokemon or collect. But ive been living vicariously through you. brother, you are just a really good person.

[@highcommander2007]

58:50 the cute lil girl doing the staring contest with the camera cracks me up lolol

[@mariefelipe]

This youtube account should get more views and subscribers. Your energy and dedication is just superb!!

[@tauau3571]

I don't collect any of the cards and only casually play the games, but still watched thru the whole video. Something so calming about these. I'm crocheting a lopunny hat for my best friend who's special interest is all things pokemon while watching.

[@sukai121]

I don’t collect or play Pokémon anymore (I did when I was a younger girl 😅) but I love watching your videos and shorts! I have no idea half the words that are spoken but I love having your videos in the background while I’m playing video games! Thank you for making hundreds of thousands peoples day better Coop! 😄😄😄

[@SithEnthusiast12]

Subbed to you last night man and eagerly await more of these, ur so chill & down to Earth w/ ppl!🔥

[@Friend4lifeyolo]

I can see the knowledge and history u have and know- a genuine nice guy! Love how y great kids and interact with them and adults as well. Keep up the great work. Love the vids…

[@acesbi]

Sue's transactions are always direct to the point. 🙂 She's easy to interact with.

[@Caleldir]

ive completely lost myself in this vid. im gonna be watching more of these for quite a while. thanks for the content brother.

[@CoopsCollection]

Thanks for watching!

[@Jeffdangit]

Love your videos! The child staring at the camera 58:45 though😅

[@jacobv8447]

I love your videos, my guy. Happy to see a kind human being popping off. Well deserved. Also, the kid in the corner of the screen staring and not breaking was comedic gold 😂

[@BenoitFarcy]

Seen 2-3 sports you did, never been interested into pokemon cards, yet I'm here watching you talking pokemon cards with people for 2 hours 😂 good job on your channel and the way you treat people ! 👏
