The Revenge of Card Shop Life Episode #8 = Lost all my Money in Dragon Ball Z

[@riotxcore6108]

as a friend of a owner who had break ins, get some of those sliding metal bars to cover the windows and doors while you are closed now that you are storing product in the location.

[@testthewest123]

Who is actually losing? The guy that gets robbed 1000 DragonballZ boosters, or the thief?

[@fromtheh3158]

Matt Harding If anyone were to rob Rudy of cardstock it would be the chodes who watch this channel.

I can personally say that the retractable metal bars have saved the shop I worked in twice from theft.

[@Backiinthegame]

BUILD THE WALL!!!!! kidding.

[@miltonwaddams1904]

lmao yeah hes in jacksonville its probably one of the best investments he got put his money in

[@FIREKING001]

I dont like magic but since I stumbled upon Rudy I cant stop watching he's such a entertaining dude Cx

[@AswollAlpaca]

a weaboo who doesn't like magic. go figure XD

[@Noatification]

Same; all I know about MTG is that a black lotus is money...maybe it's his voice???

[@HateKillDestroy87]

rekClap

[@gigglegiggles3189]

Don't know a thing about it but it so kewl

[@b.c.7741]

Magic doesn't like you either

[@Plowzan]

RUDY, you should host occasional tournaments for "failed" TCG games! It would be hilarious to see people learn crappy games for the chance to win sweet prizes!

[@ImDoneItsOver]

I would not say dead games are crappy but I like the rest of what you said :)

[@alopz89]

Tommy Triplett yeah..they just not enough promotion

[@trevorkoch8639]

We dont need that air intake, fuck it shove the pokemon up there

[@DecayedPony]

*opens air vent, pokemon card packs begin flooding the floor*

[@vatothabeast]

Glad you took our advice on not using the drywall achors. I've installed plenty of slat panels, and i feel your pain, hopefully you had help.

[@Kurufinwe_Fayanaro]

So relieved

[@Arghore]

Well, to some extend it would have made a nice drama-lama video if say 3 to 4 months in a whole section came tumbling down ... but yeah, overal i'm glad he did too ^^

[@vaevictus4637]

I'm totally going to this card shop when I finally get back to my home state. Good 'ol Florida!

[@pawpatrolnews]

Rudy's a wizard- he's thinking about sanitizing before 2020!

[@geozop]

Dragonball packs can be the secret insignia to get into the underground Magic club

[@bkdavebk]

You asked what songs you should play on that radio? Here you go, here's a playlist to get started: "Little Timmy" - Time "Pound Town" - Breed "Hosedown" - Mumbo-Jumbo "Green Screen" - Broads "Summer 69" - El Floppy Tacos

[@BugattiGriefers]

Rudy, the card shop i goes to used long wooden poles that fit in the space between the sliding back door and the sidewall of the glass display cases. It prevents someone from slowly sliding the door open from the top with their fingers and snatching some goods, downside you need to bend over each time to pick up and put the pole back in.

[@Barl3000]

I don't even play Magic anymore, but I still find these videos really facinating. It is a rather unique perspective on the whole hobby.

[@AB-ke2lw]

Is it just me or is the shelves warped? They look like they are higher in the middle and lower in the sides.

[@pvherrig]

I noticed the same thing; sorta missing the sleek look of long straight shelves from one end of the store to the other. Hopefully the addition of product on the shelves will mask the warping.

[@AB-ke2lw]

Actually, yeah that makes sense.

[@YamiadraDJ]

This is coming along great. But I feel a sense of impending doom with the shop getting closer and closer to opening. Like something really bad is gonna happen. Like, what if it's so successful Rudy actually has to work?

[@AffinityforMTG]

Rudy, do you plan on selling board games? Because there is one called Taco Takeover and you need to stock 1,000+ of them.

[@kalebmantegani5922]

Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra would be perfect music to listen to as creepy Rudy slides me a Dragon's Maze booster on the DL, we all know how hard it is to find those nowadays

[@Herpkid56]

10:10 That old Pokemon Southern Islands post card. I remember I got that binder for my birthday in 1st grade. Good days :D

[@ryan6865]

Put some sticky LED lights under the shelves to highlight boxes you want to sell packs of!

[@marciano315]

Pretty sure the Recall will get stolen by someone thinking it's real lol 10:35

[@TastySnackies]

floppy dragonballz

[@paulfrankenii7986]

The balls are inert

[@MaulerMyers]

to everyone talking about the warped plastic shelves. once product is on them they will flatten and you won't notice it. plastic is pretty malleable and it will be fine once loaded

[@nit2winit11]

the trapping of the odor comes from the card board it naturally absorbs moisture and scents and it also has a funky smell from its travels before getting to you cardboard boxs and cards tend to trap a lot of smells from the air. could of been a guy that came in to the shop a month ago smelling like cheese + balls well that now is apart of your shop lol just how it is.

[@Backiinthegame]

Your store's better equipped than some of the schools I've went to In Norcal.

[@dcshoes841]

The store is starting to really look great man. I hope this venture works out well for you, brother.

[@potatosplace6674]

If you ever do this again, look into metal re-enforced slat-wall, I run 12 stores and we used to use your style and over time they get broken by the brackets. Now we only use the ones lined with metal and no further issues. Nice looking store tho!

[@feminine_desires]

22 years old and I listen to Frank Sinatra! And all the others like Louis Armstrong, Buddy Rich, Ella Fitzgerald, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Gene Kupra, Duke Ellington, Benny Goodman and Bing Crosby. Then I've got the more modern approach in Caravan Palace, Swing Republic, Tape Five, Soil & "Pimp" Sessions, Swing Ninjas, The Seatbelts, Jamie Berry, Parov Stelar, Kitten & the Hip, DelaDap, Cat Sister's Swing and Alice Francis. I'm full of Jazz and Swing, all in lossless quality~

[@k3vbomb]

This is amazing to watch the growth of your idea come to life! It is not a mess and keep us posted. Also do some pokemon for patreons and I may think about it ;P

[@DM-jh5rs]

It's a shame too, because Dragonball Z was an awesome CCG back in the early 2000s. I fondly remember playing in tournaments and trying to deck myself to get all the dragonballs in my namekian deck. It never worked.

[@LakeVermilionDreams]

Love me some Rat Pack! But surprisingly, my favorite card shop music has been soundtracks, either fantasy movie tracks for atmosphere playing magic, or my favorite, the Inception soundtrack that is almost a subconscious feeling of spacey craziness!

[@ThePaisteTrout477]

Rudy, I used to own a card shop and a big discussion I heard amongst my dwellers was whether or not a store allowed customer-to-customer cash exchanges in the store. They mentioned many shops in the SoCal area were split on their trade/buy/sell rules inside of the place of business. The lesson I personally gathered from all that was the customer will be driven out of the store just because of the stores rules. Therefor let them make some money doing deals in the shop, then keep them in there to spend it and give it back to you. I understand the volume of the store's merchandise will dramatically influence this decision, you don't want Timmy selling all his stolen desirable cards for $2 less then you, in front of a case full of them. Would love for you to shine some light and your opinion on this. Have a great one bud! - Nick

[@adam6727]

those are the kind of chairs that always break along the sides where the plastic meets the metal framework towards the front of the tushie section.

[@tobyklase7478]

Bobby Darrin, Louie Armstrong, The Scatman, Miles Davis, Tony Bennet, Michael Buble, Michael Bolton. Jazz is good and nice job on the store!

[@iJizzmyPants69]

We all know the card smell shop is from the people!!! Please shower before you come!!

[@fastcornbread]

I totally support the notion to play Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin 24/7. Most card shops are awkwardly quiet on weekdays, so the music would be a nice bonus for customers. Not to mention if you add classy music, it would really enhance the atmosphere and give off a vibe of higher quality all around.

[@FolloweroftheBlind]

Rat pack in a card shop, the ink spots in a card shop, and possibly even some older stuff Rudy gotta have it

[@Vi3tHoneyX]

I really wish I could come over just to reorganize the fan mail wall. It's too unorganized and uses the space so inefficiently! Ahhhhh

[@aaronspokemon1133]

Yes Frank. anything but new b.s.. It's your shop set that theme. Can't wait to see it complete. It's coming alone really good. hard work but looks fun

[@jennifer9084]

This is looking really cool. Now I have to patiently wait for the next video

[@xxxftcxxx]

Nah, im 28, riding in the car with my mom she used to have on all the oldies stations....so im damned to know every popular song from the 60s-80s

[@cscbeef]

MEP Engineer here chiming in. I am unfamiliar with your local laws and I could not your ceiling well enough to know if there are sprinkler heads(it doesnt look like you have any). That would mean storing stuff that close to the ceiling is not recommended, especially over a return grille. Store is looking great!

[@ernieb9948]

Old Blue Eyes and the Rat Pack should be mandatory listening. Play it at your store just so the kids can be introduced to it.

[@muchoaustin]

Thanks goodness, it had been over 22 hours since the last vid. I was about to go do something productive.

[@brasky89]

You, are going to regret those chairs once they start breaking.

[@millertimeivy]

I just got married in April and all we played during the cocktail hour was Sinatra, Dean, and Sammy. Nothing like them in today's music.

[@Mmashu]

Rudy, if you got room to turn your black displays in front of the counter 90 degrees, you get a better view of what's going on a the playing tables, which you might want.

[@Prattical]

Rudy flies me to the moon Lets me play in his Magic Shop

[@adiennika24]

paint the inside of the cases black and add white LEDs it makes any product pop

[@DominoCricket]

I got my Sinatra records from my Grandfather when he passed Nice and Easy is my favorite album

[@chrisr.2410]

Got a hot plate full of Bacon Mac & Cheese and a new episode of Rudy's Card Shop Life. Life is good.

[@ccmwhite16]

Are you going to do a video of your amonkhet opening summaries like you used to do pre-kaladesh. Even just seeing what invocations and foils you opened would be sweet

[@jimmyfisher3407]

He stopped doing the mass openings due to the lottery cards and will wait until they get rid of the lottery cards

[@ccmwhite16]

He just said in the video he opened a bunch of Amonkhet

[@jimmyfisher3407]

Colton White He might have been talking about the openings for patrons that he has been doing

[@Frycusthe3rd]

You need to play Santana through the card shop. Santana loves your favourite planeswalker. The black magic woman liliana

[@Citizen_J]

I still have some of my DBZ TCG cards. also, to clean those chairs use a water pressure hose. as an ex school janitor, I'm telling you it works

[@marshio1533]

I live like 1 hour away from your shop, I'm going to stop by. Lol Florida usually sucks, but we have Rudy.

[@Kris-il2ls]

Loving the cardshop life videos. Looking for more practical information / Tips about opening and operating a cardshop/store please and thank you. Love you long time.

[@kris-ng8me]

im a senior in highschool and i still know them and listen to them so...id love that in a card shop

As for those chairs, they look nice, but very large people totally destroy them. Our store went through those like crazy. When people twist and lean back on them they don't hold up very well.

[@AlkQubit]

Hey Rudy! We’re in Miami and are thinking about driving up some day to visit the store but we can’t find a listing.

[@Kunx990]

You can play that fairly unknown Billy Joel song, "Scenes from an Itlian Card Shop"

[@rwxstudio7173]

Might want to get some cork board to pin the fan mail stuff to there, Rudy. Otherwise those walls will look like a game of blind man's darts later.

[@scottmwyman]

"can you see how shiny and polished that is".....that's what she said.

[@jeffgst4]

Was hoping you'd show your outside sign! Last video you said they were coming out to do it that day so I figured it would be done by this video.

[@Sixfools]

You should run Chaos Drafts with all that older product. Makes buying older boosters a lot of fun

[@SnoopPogg]

As much as I would love to see the card shop, I don't think I'll be able to come by, I'm in Seattle. It looks great though and I definitely support the idea of playing Sinatra! Good luck with the rest of the project!

[@DLyons]

It's sweet how much you love your audience. :)

[@ebush279]

i really like the intro with the innvocation every episode keep up the good work brah hope you make some dope moneys

[@tonynittoli4792]

Good for you man. I wish I had the balls to leave my lousy 9-5 to follow my dreams. It's cool to see you doing something you love.

[@StealthNinja4577]

I've wanted a Gaea's Cradle since I first got into magic. I was a broke college student and they costed 120 bucks. Now that I could spend 120 the Legendary Rule change pumped up the price to 250 and I just can't trust that I'm gonna get a real Cradle.

[@isaacgibbs5832]

Hey Rudy, when you're all setup could you do like a run down of what everything cost you? It would be great for those of us who are trying to start a card shoppe.

[@typical_doza]

The place is looking pretty good so far, keep up the good work Rudy.

[@MaiibuKen]

This makes me want to move down to Florida so I can snag a job at Rudy's shop

[@noonenothing2665]

Definitly can tell on the back, and frank would be awesome to play while you play some games lol

[@iansonofshrimp6095]

id be interested in a friday night nerd fight where we all take our shirts off and throw hands

[@Lycandros]

Don't forget Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Julie London, Roy Brown, Fred Astaire, Perry Como, Nat King Cole, and Patti Page

[@michaellee7371]

Rudy!!!! recently received some counterfit Dark confidants from ebay. ill send you one what is the address? plz show it on a video so more people don't get hosed

[@vanitasfivenine6533]

Frank? Chairman of the Board? He's got some nice chill tunes.

[@clauderodrigue6461]

Glad you took the advice on the wall anchors

[@Menarus]

Literally just told someone today that I'd love to get more of the old score DBZ cards. I am crushed, lol.

[@PBCollects]

funny you'd say Billy Dean and Frank Sinatra, a while ago when I started collecting vinyl my parents had 2 records from them.

[@WeskersPlayhouse]

The person who managed my last LGS was a clean freak so the smells were only an issue on packed FNMs and Pre release. Also, some idiot(s) were pissing all over in the bathroom so we ended up having to have to get a key from him if we needed to go D:

[@docplum]

The amount of DBZ packs it.....it.....IT'S OVER 9000!

[@MojoVince]

I don't know about the chairs, i'd have choose something with cooling holes because sweat is the real ennemy and this kind of chairs make you sweat just by watching that full black lether seat.

[@StrikerELF]

can you provide links on where you bought your tables, chairs, cabinets, walls etc? The black tables and chairs are such a sexy color. Also can't wait for the official launch!.Thank you! :)

[@professormobius]

Sinatra and Martin = total class act Rudy.

[@craigharrison1274]

Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra? Hell yes! Play all the crooners!

[@dukeofpoop954]

haha Rudy show us the holes where the panel came off and ripped the sheetrock anchors out

[@cji3516]

Good day, I would like to hear your opinion on wizards "oops we missed the cat" emergency ban announcement two days after an official ban update. Does this inspire consumer confidence and future investments ?

[@DecayedPony]

0:18 dunno why that made me happy, I was thinkin' "where's the box going to be, in the dbz cards?!" and it was!

[@RivianTramp]

Putting the Pokemon that close to the AC vent will damage the foils if you kick on the heater.

[@lupusk9productions]

don't let anyone reach around that corner wall by that shelving with the pokemon stuff on it by the back glass case.

[@derekroberts5931]

Nice explanation of wall and shelves.

[@diehappy125]

Card shop looks great! love the fan wall!

[@mjollyakaweedwhat]

It's really looking nice in there. A lot nicer than some famous youtuber's stores.... :) Lemme get some of those DBZ packs

[@TheOriginal009]

Rudy, the question that we all want to know is...where are the MagiNation CCG packs at?

[@free-mtg-stuff406]

Rudy's favorite song. MY WAY!

[@eddiesobolewski9526]

I'd totally listen to some Sinatra while I play Magic.

[@clownkingdon]

What is your stance on boardgames considering that we are in the "golden age of boardgameing"?? Are you planing on having/selling boardgames or catering to the boardgame community at all?

[@deadkid2012]

it's crazy seeing these videos now 2020. all the work to set this up and it's not even open now and you said it may not be opened again.

[@madgermandoger7457]

10:50 new secret lair looks sick

[@TroutCreative]

Rudy, order a quaternary ammonia dispenser from the restaurant supply store and put it in the bathroom. Teach your employees how to use it so they can wipe down all the tables and chairs everyday. #BlackChairsSoClassy #SanitaryTacos #WillBusTablesForBoosters #QuatTestStrips

[@rajvinder89]

Rudy if you're recording on your phone know that they have a hard time keeping focus/white balance in changing lighting conditions. Maybe its time to upgrade to a DSLR setup?
