That might just be an idea for one of your weekend events - some kind of Pokémon TCG education/valuation crash course. Might be a good way to educate multiple customers at once, and answer any questions they have in one fell swoop. I have no doubt that y'all could come up with some way to make it as entertaining as it is informative! 👍🏻

(As an active MTG player) Please be careful about buying too much MTG! Singles can be really difficult to offload as they release sets and reprint constantly which is why you're getting lots of bulk more often, as a lot of places won't even take them. I'm super happy they're working for you right now and hope they continue to!! I just don't want to see you stuck with a 20,000 card trade-in for the next decade LOL :) (Forgot to add: Check your more valuable cards from time to time as cards are banned from competitive frequently or are reprinted and massively plummet in value, it's a very touchy card game to get into so I would be super duper careful about what you buy. :) )

Long time ago I was buying collections of cards like crazy. I had people come to me after they went to another place and I was able to buy multiple collections because the first guy was offering so little and was apparently rude haha. But I totally get you where people think they have the most expensive stuff. I've seen that a lot. Great videos man! Keep up the great work!

it's probably pretty easy to be the rude guy. I have to center myself sometimes before i respond to people saying what they think things are worth, haha. But yeah, we get a lot further being kind and considerate. Thanks for watchign!!

I recently just got back into Pokemon card collecting. Started with them as a kid, then moved to Yu-Gi-Oh!, then Magic the Gathering. I recently found a tremendous love for card shows and vendor/buyer POVs from card shows. $10 for 1000 bulk is pretty standard pricing, I think, from what I can tell. Some people pay a little more for bulk ex cards, reverse foils, regular holos, full arts, etc. I hope you focus a little more on the card aspect of your shop in future videos. :)

I also regret not getting quality things instead of going for cheap.Excercise equipment for me is a real stopping gap if you go cheap.Logan Paul is a Pokemon collector and made me look at my old cards but any collectible thing I have didn't skyrocket in value because it wasn't exclusive enough.

I work at a shop where that's my main job. I know exactly what you are talking about. It is rough man, it is a daily challenge. Whether it's pokemon, Magic, or Yugioh, there are so many issues when buying. Especially young kids with their collection. I hate having to explain to kids. I feel your frustration man.

@@controlfreakz2246 yeah, the little kids make me feel the worst. Temu has these kids loaded down with fakes. One kid - probably the worst to my memory - all the kids at school had knowingly traded him their fakes for his good stuff. Heart breaking.

Restrict trade ins to full arts, exs, art rares, secret rares so you arent going through someines bulk
@DuckDuckBlue3 ай бұрын
@@RyRy69420 so, we make our own packs and sell them for a couple bucks, and it does really well for us. It’s been difficult thus far to get enough bulk to keep those stocked. So bulk is not a problem.

When were fake pokemon cards first made? My ex is around your age and still has ever single card he had as a kid in a binder.
@DuckDuckBlue3 ай бұрын
I don’t know that answer for sure. But I do know fakes have been crazier than ever with Temu and stuff like that. Also, pokemon in general being at an all time high, only makes it worse! I’ve even heard of the odd fake pack ending up in Walmart lately.

I do have a question, I don’t know if I’m overally paranoid or reasonably concern but for your front windows do yall have any anti-robber thing like I see a lot of stores have those big mental fences things that stop intruders. I say this because I remember your old old shop got broken into and that was just freakin’ awful and I’d hate to see it happen again. If that happen to me I’d be paranoid about massive front window exposed like that. Just my two cents Have a wonderful day yall 😊
