I Bought a Suspicious $1,000 Pokemon Cards Mystery Box

Ebay is the spot to go for Pokemon cards mystery boxes. They have the biggest selection of Pokemon cards and much more. What happens when I buy a Pokemon cards mystery box from a random Ebay seller?

*The $20 ultra rares walking in* : "Hi how are you? I know I'm co-" *The gold star Gyarados* : "Step aside mate"

[@GlassEater420]

The whitening and print line... you can tell that card's been sitting in his shop forever so he chucked it in as the "big hitter" item.

[@Shaggy_Memes]

@@GlassEater420 True I guess but you can't really complain about a gold star. At least I wouldn't. For someone like me who can't even afford regular modern day packs, I'd never complain if I got any of the cards in the custom packs. I'm just saying that the gold star was extremely surprising lol

[@jacksondavenport9296]

hey.... mind if i sit down? i wont be long XD

[@akueret]

The gold star definitely helped bring the box back, also those tropical sets. For a video? Worth it. For a normal person? I'd like them to sweeten the deal a little bit more.

[@smoochboy5721]

i agree. maybe more older sealed stuff

[@CombatSloth]

Honestly though that's not a terrible deal for your slightly above average collector, but I'd be pressed never to buy these unless you're expecting to lose money. I'd never let some random decide what goes into my $1000. Just feels like you could be cheated very hard very easily.

[@joeh858]

They made 10% on the box, U can't expect them to lose money on every box

[@chickenksi2464]

@@joeh858 usually they would find all the items at better prices, e.g he put $900 worth of items, but probably paid like $750/$800 for the items, maybe less or more. But that’s why rev was saying he’d like to see more than $1000 worth of items

[@konastuff603]

Exactly. Poke rev priced those celebrations products high. Makes you think with the current market. If someone kept tons of sealed products and just bought bangers as singles they could make a 1k mystery box with a few $3 vintage booster packs.

[@brainfart5417]

For a mystery box that was pretty good. Given the 1k price tag I had high hopes and it delivered. It had new, it had vintage, it had a toy and things you've never owned and I've never seen. Gives a great variety for anybody in pokemon that can afford it. Unfortunately for me I never will be able to.

[@rebeccae288]

While I would never purchase these myself, I really enjoy watching these mystery box openings!

[@louisekim3833]

indeed mystery box really feel fishy, I bought a few mystery box in japan itself and is all junk which cost around 150 to 300 dollar each . After that I never purchase anymore mystery box.

[@3G00dboys41]

Same

[@neilgoldberg7807]

Same

[@gamingghostxd3965]

It’s like watching people play slots, u watch them do it so you don’t do it lol

[@fishingbob8374]

He’s most likely getting these from someone he knows, they send him good boxes, then everyone else gets burned. Careful.

[@PokeHunter13]

Best series on KZbin: PokeRev opening sus mystery boxes he bought of EBay!

[@Casperlewis]

pooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppppp

[@brandonshehow]

You should have opened the ETB also. Loved seeing the gold star Gyarados. Hoping to pull the Rayquaza for my self one day.

[@0mike.caulfield0]

I was also confused why he didn’t open it up.

[@riggsvsoliver]

Yea I agree I was kinda surprised he didn’t open it

[@micahturner8297]

Leonhart has been hunting for the hyper rare Leon for forever now..…and you just got one in a mystery box. Lol 😂

[@JD-oe8lk]

These are some of my favorite videos in your series. This was a great one with some decent pulls. Maybe order 2 from a company one under PokeRev and one under your personal one. Thanks for all the amazing content.

[@joemueller1960]

Same mystery box videos are they best

[@kgunz4282]

Mystery box openings are some of my favorite to watch when it goes good.

[@davidl1670]

Love these types of videos. Can you possibly do one on booster boxes bought on Amazon? The reviews are always super mixed and collectors tell you to not buy from them. Definitive answer may be helpful especially with holidays coming up

[@DC-wg9rx]

These videos are by far my favorite content you put out. It is awesome to see something opened I couldn't afford to take the risk on.

[@richardlowman6918]

Same here. I don't understand why some people said he is wrostest annoying.. He is good guy and wanted helped us what stuffs to buy and not buy. Yes, i am deaf. I watched videos with Subtitles on.

[@Greatglenfiddich99]

I don’t think it’s worth the gamble for most, but I will say that no matter who you are, as a Pokémon card collector - that gold star gyarados would make ANY person excited to find inside. Thanks again for a really fun video to watch, looking forward to another mystery box opening!

[@jc0609]

Thanks for the video. As the other viewers have already said, I really enjoy these type of mystery box openings.

[@theubertrading]

Honestly this wasn't too bad at all! While the value didn't quite add up to $1,000, there was a lot of variety and some pretty cool vintage products. In the seller's defense as well it seems like they may have priced out a lot of the items when they were at a bit of a higher value.

[@psychedelicpsycho]

You can’t really expect too pull over $1000 worth of stuff. The seller has to pay for shipping and product I mean he can’t lose money or he’ll not be doing mystery boxes for very long. That was a good box for sure!

[@codplayer1978]

Exactly, sure the seller probably gets decent bulk prices so he has a margin to play with, but honestly getting different sort of stuff, and over 90% of the value in raw products, one of the better mystery boxes I've seen.

[@TedBarton91]

Right? By definition you’re not gonna get your moneys worth surely? You can’t expect to

[@Toulippy]

FINALY THE MYSTERY BOXES ARE BACKKK

[@EmoriRos]

they fake doe, he is sponsored by that person

[@Scotlandontop657]

Hey toulippy do u know pokemasterpook

[@Anonymous-pw5kr]

I SO love when you do these! Sometimes I wanna get some then I watch these and it either pushes me to get one or I run in the other direction lol thank you for doing these ! 👊💪

[@Takar100]

I think the value to get to 1,000 is what they were writing on the back. Where you had cards at $15, they showed as $20 or something more. So, maybe they used a different source for their prices. Still seemed like a lot of good stuff though.

[@lefthandedghost]

Can't wait to see you Gyarados all slabbed up Rev, congrats on the huge hit. Beautiful card in any condition (except maybe dented lol)

[@dalefails]

You reading the description and going OTT on the capital letters tickled me. Love it.

[@poketaylor3216]

Awe man so many mystery boxes haha. I have yet to find a good one but I did order a mystery box for my channel that I'll be opening in a few weeks. Fingers crossed!

[@williamcesco7594]

That gold star Gyarados. Might be the sickest card i ever seen

[@omarsandoval6217]

This was awesome! They included a nice variety and almost delivered on the value. A++ video!!

[@clucknorris1851]

The mystery box videos are my favorite!

[@collectorjesse4291]

Love these videos in particular Rev. It’s always fun to see you open these and the hype when you got the gold star gyarados, made this whole video worth it to me! Always fun when you’re opening up mystery boxes. Ever thought of doing something like unlisted leaf where you pay like 10k to TCA gaming for a random mystery box? Just an idea. Always fun Rev, keep up the awesome vids!

[@kaan7474]

Mystery box videos are a bit RISKY but TOOOO FUN TO WATCH

[@RocSandy]

9:09 bruh moment....They even knew he loved gyarados

[@DexMingSi]

your channel and content is great. very entertaining. this is the first day i watched your vids and i already finished 3 videos lul. will hit the subscribe button for sure. thank you

[@yoyoyogaang]

I love the mystery box videos!!

[@SlothLord.]

He said Pokémon mystery box you won’t forget even though it says you won’t regret 0:30 lol 😂

[@farleym4486]

Yes definitely get the Gyarados graded!!

[@bulbamon3567]

Awesome vid as always, me brudda! That Gyarados is boss!

[@RocSandy]

Rev remember the good ol days? 4:46 Hop Hop Hop Untill ya Drop drop drop? 😆

[@00xman__14]

Keep up the amazing content been watching for since 100k ❤️

[@maxxskyful]

Nice Video, allways symphatic dude 👊 Love it

[@billclues5406]

Mystery boxes are a great way to get rid of bulk amount of semi rare cards at a lil above retail. Smart selling trick tbh

[@cris5244]

Yea but you usually put above value to get repeat customers. Once I saw the prices on the cards I knew he wasn't going to get his 1k back.

[@billclues5406]

@@cris5244 I'm pretty sure they valued the celebrations etb and chu box way over msrp, which for them added up to 1k. But we all know in reality they are not worth the scalper prices. Your right they should put over the 1k value for repeats.

[@GnobTV]

i think its a good box if you dont expect to get the full 1000$ out of it. but thats the point of mystery boxes for me its just the fun and the gamble what it makes so nice to buy them.. ofc i mean the the most cards are just a bit beat up on the back or on the holo foil but the thats okay

[@connorstewart9076]

Garydos so sweet man very jealous! Wish I had enough for that exact card awesome man! Your an awesome streamer as well great job been working 7 days a week but trying to watch all your videos!!!:)

[@KleberLeaf]

I dunno, I mean, as someone who sells mystery packs myself, it doesn’t make sense from a business perspective to sell boxes worth more than what they’re paid for. Even if I get people at 10-20% below what they paid, I still think that’s a good deal because I have a lot of singles sleeves worth $50+ that have a fair chance of going into the packs but I HAVE to make some packs worth a little less in order to make a profit. PLUS, these mystery boxes that do hit that 10-20% less than what you paid are still WAY better than buying an evolving skies booster box ($300+ as of this comment) and pulling less than $100 in value, if that. It’s not really fair to expect $1000 in value from a mystery seller when you CAN and DO turn around and buy booster boxes from Pokémon company, KNOWING that the odds are 100% not in your favor. Anyone who opens Pokémon cards knows that they’re not going to reach what they paid for them when buying ETBs, Boosters, etc…

[@mr55771]

If you noticed every single one of those loose cards had an issue whether it being oc, played ect even the gold star and a huge print line going through the middle no way worth the money. Looks like the cards were rejects from the sub pile

[@richardharden6811]

I think they did really well on the loose cards they should of put a bunch of loose packs or one more etb and would of been perfect

[@Davidlyv1]

Grade the gold star. You got so happy pulling it, and for that enjoyment alone, I would say it is worth it. Preaching, collect what you enjoy, so grade it - regardless of the grade :)

[@jzm12]

I freaking love this video so much and your reaction is just my favorite part of the whole video

[@BigSal92]

Grade that gyrados its one of the best cards I've ever seen first time I've seen it myself I'm glad it was here in your channel The Legend Poke Rev💯💯💯

[@mr55771]

bet it won't even get an 8.. It had a HUGE print line going through the middle

[@Mishishere]

The Holon Gyarados alone would have done it for me. It’s one of my lifelong chase cards.

[@SpritzArchive]

I watched your videos in the hospital with a broken arm, thank you so much for cheering me up!

[@jacobjirak6571]

I can tell the joy you had opening it. So i say yea. You also have to know you wont make ya money back. Some do some dont. It has to balance out. That why it a risk.

[@ballenbak.]

Love the mystery box content!!:)

[@beluga4301]

Honestly, I got the same exact necrozma V full art and it has the same issues on the top, so it may just be a printing problem.

[@donoella235]

I'm just in love with that Shiny Gyarados card. Definitely grade it!!! If it turns bad and you don't want to keep it, I would like to know what you are asking for it. Would love to have this in my collection.

[@GreenSteveS]

I usually don't comment much but I try leaving a like always, but this time I gotta say wow what a video. I've been at this poketuber stuff for about 2 months and I've enjoyed watching your stuff. I hope one day we can work together! Would be awesome, but man again what a video. Such awesome stuff! 🔥🔥🔥

[@Vincent_and_Hailey]

4:42 now you make me think of my missing hop😞

[@thegeeeeeeeeee]

Very cool garydos, I never seen that before. I don’t collect and even I want that card

[@DislodgedTKO]

Wow the gold star was actually pretty rad to throw in

[@Ben-nx4vd]

I love the mystery box videos!!!!

[@seansadler1604]

No risk no reward, love these kind of videos and the excitement you show in opening these. You can really tell how much you love what you do.

[@lymphao1335]

These unboxing videos are very satisfying

[@RocSandy]

Guaranteed GREAT!.... value MYSTERY! .....boxes. With SEALLLED!......Products .......and....MUCH MUCH MORE!...😂

[@aymenelomari7325]

Elite trainer boxes packs hidden fates shining fates ps5 booster boxes pc and much much moreeee😂

[@happymike420]

That gyarados is siiiiiiiiick! Imma have to hunt that single down myself..

[@chipzpokerips9131]

That was a dope box!!

[@kingturk]

10:55 why does the lapras reverse legend maker have the mark on the left? i thought it was always on the right side?

[@BlackRedMilkTea]

Lol the celebrations logo on the mew at 14:13 mark is iffy

[@John-2521]

I really love your vids please never stop!

[@knudmller2528]

Pretty cool box!! more of that content

[@RelicGh0st]

What brand do you use to sleeve or inner penny sleeve and hard protector? Looking into what I should get

[@bryanboutillette9606]

This was a pretty good one for once!! Grade that Rev! Id say 7/8 through PSA

[@sanane66543]

has printline errors so id say 6

[@andrewmahabir589]

that's a played card we're talking a 6 yeah at most tbh

[@DynamaxDragonite]

Definitely not a 7 or 8 lol 5/6.

[@LiaoCards]

Lol 7/8. It has print lines. A lot of whitening on back. And how are people missing the big crease on the Holo

[@rennoca5879]

Bottom left corner is creased, and much more problems, probably a psa 4-5

[@jbond2848]

Great editing on this video, top tier👍🏻 also always love any content like this where you showcase random purchases you made.

[@everythingcollectibles]

Rev, the older WOTC Cards were printed with darker backs. The newer modern cards all have light backs, so that is not a faded card.

[@turtsmate3525]

Let’s go Rev! So close to getting your moneys worth - I dropped my phone when you pulled the gyarados gold star!

[@teox4102]

I have to say you have to make more videos like this 👍🏻

[@jacobbiggerstaff1876]

Awesome box, awesome video. 1 question, could you send 1 of those extra mews from celebrations my way? Ha ha. Can’t seem to pull the little guy.

[@errorjoe404pogo9]

These mystery box videos are my favorite

[@robertlee9602]

Not bad, that gold star certainly helped.

[@KuroHekireki]

Don't think the seller was trying to shoot for under a thousand, but rather where he got his prices from were different from where you got your prices from. Regardless, awesome video!! Always love watching your excitement through these openings!

[@clucknorris1851]

The gold star gyarados made the box worth it! Especially once the card is graded.

[@NotSoSlowbro]

Interesting box! I enjoyed it. Great selection.

[@zacktrammel614]

You crack me up with these random people in the thumbnails

[@raheem1514]

You have the most fun mystery box content. I just watched your old vids now I got this to watch. Thanks bro @PokeRev

[@enigmas4017]

And Here I am and I can’t even find a celebrations product to help my collection 😂😂 love the vids

[@Soopro88]

I think it was ok. Dude made some money while still giving out value and something that clearly made an impact

[@obi8164]

That was a pretty good mystery box

[@918dbsguy]

Dang I lost it when I saw that gold 🌟 shiny gary so good

[@tonyleblanc4988]

It seemed pretty worth it! for sure could have been worse

[@abelacosta7200]

Not worth it. You gotta at least break even. That Gyarados tho!!! That was a beautiful 😻 card! Gyarados is my 2nd 🥈 favorite Pokémon! You should definitely get that bad boy graded.

[@bartoszrychlik9410]

Great cards Rev and the gold star is cool

[@Teofiletheawesome]

These are my favorite types of videos

[@OGnumeronada]

I love how he calls pikachu chonkachu! Hahaha

[@rastiancms6674]

Bro everytime when you post a video am so hyped 👍

[@alfredwalker825]

I absolutely love the picture for this video. That creepy suspicious look 👀

[@farfetchd3889]

Such a fun video and that was actually a pretty good return

[@Trevih]

They legit just got a purchase order and went through their collection throwing in stuff until they met a specific value. Its not like they prepacked these and one has more chance at a bigger hit than another.

[@chartedlife]

Gets scammed.. "man I could have really gotten scammed there!" 😂

[@datnatikid]

well worth it. the experience. and that gold gyardos

[@vanessadunne9946]

I can't believe you've pulled such a rare card

[@annmarie6675]

Not terrible. The condition of the cards isn't the best though. The gold star card was cool to see.

[@bryandehoon9304]

More mystery opening!!!🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@Ghlowy]

Remember pulling the gold star gyrados and a bunch of rare cards from this era. Had them stolen from by friend at the time… he still lives in the same house today from what I hear and I always wonder if he still has them :/

[@terryquashnock2057]

Gold star Gyarados was sick pull and yes grade it!

[@Mr-Divine]

91.2% for ebay is actually pretty terrible and I'd never buy from someone with that low feedback

[@RaulDawg22]

Salamance vmax rainbow had 90° corners on the card when he took it out of its card saver. The camera cuts to what looks to be the back of the same card but yet the corners are now radiused and rounded. Trying to understand why he would switch the cards. What's the point? Go to 5:07 and look at the corners of the card for yourself. Corners change shortly after.
