The Reality Of Selling At My $1,000,000 Pokemon Card Shop (POV EDITION)

[@PokeDean]

Thank you to everyone who came my shop! Leave a thumbs up and comment if you want to see more of this style of video on my channel :)

[@Br4nd0n94]

Most people these days don’t pay attention to kids and their questions but the way you include them in all conversations and genuinely build friendships with them is special

[@PokeDean]

Thank you, I appreciate that 🙌🏽

[@DuckSmokezQuack]

Gotta engage with kids

[@jkcoolxx]

I was thinking the same thing myself! Fair play man respect 🤙🏻

[@CAeuJohno123]

Man i used to watch sneaker shops do vids like this. Buy, sell, spotting fakes etc... so relaxing to watch... dunno why you arent putting out these types of videos regularly... plus, nobody else is doing this in the pokemon scene right now. Love this type of content man keep it up!

[@PokeDean]

Thanks man! There are some of these videos going around so wanted to try myself! Glad you enjoyed and will be doing more 🙌🏽

[@tonynguyen8133]

The fake cards break my heart. What a way to get kids to hate the hobby T-T. Thank you for teaching them the difference between real and fake

[@PokeDean]

Its been around since I was a kid, its so hard telling a kid there favourite card is fake :(

[@EyeballPaulLive]

You guys should be very proud of that shop, looking amazing ! wish i lived closer

The way you are paying attention to the kids will give them an experience that will stay with them for a lifetime. I still remember me as a kid going to the local card store being such a strong memory of my childhood. Thank you for giving kids the opportunity to experience what I did as a child.

[@PokeDean]

Really appreciate this comment, I agree!

[@krisuzzz3734]

What a great video! You seem like a very genuine and humble person. I would love to visit the UK (I live in Finland), perhaps one day I will and will pay a visit to your shop in case it is still up and running once I am able to visit the UK! Keep it up, this kind of videos are fun to watch.

Thank you for the kind words 🙌🏽 yea please do!

Obviously it takes a ton of hard work and effort to get to this point but this job looks like the dream. Just getting to interact with people and help them complete their collections. Fun to watch!
