The look on her face... she doesn't even care about the money, she knows she has an entire marriage of "I told you so's" waiting at home.
I don't think so. Notice how she never referred to her husband in the present tense?
That man is dead.
@@FerroMancer
Whoooooooooooooosh
@@supremeleaderarmy9164 Is that the sound of your friends running away?
@@FerroMancer *past tense. I noticed that as well, and wondered if it was death or divorce.
Edited to add: There is also the possibility that he wants them appraised because he used to play, but hasn't for years, and he sent her instead of going himself for some other reason.
Hes obviously gone. You think he would just drop the hobby after getting all those cards together?
I feel like he sent his wife in with these cards to prove that MtG is valuable aspect of his life lol
Sounds like he doesn't play anymore... if he did there is NO WAY those cards would be sitting unsleeved in ultra pro pages.
@@darkstar949 IIRC, Black Lotus was $4000 around the time of Urza block.
@@IanDunbar1 no way it was that much. I don't think they were even graded until 2002. You could pick up an unlimited lotus for around $550 in 04
@@kenjames91680 Ah, my memory must be adding a zero then.
@@IanDunbar1 in 2003-04 ish I could have picked up a complete set power of 9 unlimited for $2000. (Ever wish you could go back in time?)
I almost had a heart attack from seeing a Black Lotus in a normal binder page.
Un sleeved. Three ring binder. Idiot wife. Huuuuge I told you so waiting for her when she gets home
And thinking about her potentially carrying the binder around upside down and a card falls out. ☠
At least it isn't on the ring side where it can get a crease.
Seriously man not even double sleeved.
I don't trust myself to take the cards out, I don't have that kinda money.
I love how the guy who owns this binder clearly knows how valuable they all are based on how they are organized, especially with that Black Lotus literally right next to the Mox Emerald
i know a bit about them, but is the emerald really rarer than the other four gems? i wonder why. i thought those 5 were equally rare?
if he did, he would have had it graded, not in a binder that can add wear to it.
Even when he bought them or obtained them in the 90s he would have known that those two were the most rare without having any other indication of their future worth
He put the Power 9 all on the same page right in front. He had a plan.
The mox emerald is the second-least expensive of the moxen tho... Sapphire, Jet, and Ruby are all worth more, in that specific order. The only one that falls shorter than Emerald is the Pearl.
I'm officially old. MTG cards on the Antiques Roadshow. Time to enter Green Grove Retirement Community.
Gay Rambo Don’t go there, I hear it’s wired for sound
Grove away
Pokemons next, for me 🤔 man where does time go
Just don't be ABUSIVEE to the STAFFFFF.
Yep, we are officially old.
My Alpha and Beta sets will remain where they are though, not ready to sell my retirement fund just yet.
That is the energy of a woman who was absolutely slam dunked on being wrong in an argument with her nerd husband. She becomes more uncomfortable the more money she’s told the cards are worth lol.
Just got posterized... BOOM SHACKALAKA!!!
Don’t think she quite believes it (the values he quotes)
Not sure I do too
@@neetknight9954 As always with vintage cards, buyers drive the value. If you don't believe him, just look at what they're selling for. Spoiler: his estimation is accurate.
“Oh ok honey so these cards are just worthless junk? Why don’t you take them to antiques roadshow and let me know what they’re worth.”
@@neetknight9954 I mean...the Power Nine are absolutely worth tens of thousands of dollars. Just check out a few listings on eBay...

And people absolutely pay those prices for them.
Lady: "I don't know a couple of hundred dollars"
Black lotus: "Am I a joke to you?"
Takes out wallet. Here’s $500 I’ll take them off your hands xD
@@LiLIrishSoutherner I know right?
I remember back when I was heavy into Magic in the early 2000s the Black Lotus was only 10 years old then and was already worth $300-$500 in some settings. If only I had dropped the cash to get a power 9 at that time (sigh). Would have cost a couple thousand.
Yes. The black lotus is a joke to her.
@@blackswanmtg I always dreamed of running into someone like her. Having all these old expensive cards and not knowing what she had. Being able to pick them up cheap. Sigh
He is so excited. I don't blame him. I know nothing about magic cards, but when you love something it's a great feeling sharing it.
She was totally giving him that “u need to calm down” look, then that 75-100K price tag came slamming down on the table. Hahahahaha!
You have the absolute best read on this situation. It is truly great to see someone's bliss in this way. Knowing something about this game and the cards I would have had trouble not bursting in to tears talking to her about them.
I want to see the lead-up to the beginning of the video. If I was an appraiser and someone opened that page up in front of me, I'd definitely need a minute. Especially on camera haha.
I used to run a card shop. Ive seen a notebook like this before. It never gets old. I'm in awe every time I lay eyes on a collection like this.
I highly doubt this is real. It makes no sense a set collector would have them in the binder like this. I can maybe see all the power 9 together (though usually you would have the 3 blue spells on a different page then the artifacts, since you sort by color), but why are the basic lands on the other side ? Why is there one single dual land among them ? You would either sort by alphabet or have duals together and basics together. On the other hand if you just wanna show the crown jewels, and hence have the volcanic island on the other page, why have the basics there ? This makes no sense.
@@terryfeynman They might have only owned one of the duals. Those basics are in alphabetical order by the way, so it's possible the binder went Power 9 -> lands -> color wheel, or some other thing. Also, Antiques Roadshow is on PBS, not the History Channel, they don't DO fakes. FWIW, I think the fact that those cards aren't double-sleeved is pretty good indication that she's telling the truth. I feel like if someone knew enough to get high quality fakes in this day and age, they'd know enough to make it look like they were taking effort to protect said cards, not store them in loose pages stored in a binder you got for $6 at Office Max.
@@ccggenius I believe you are right. Plus there was clearly another page before the power 9s, probably in a pathetic attempt to protect those cards, assuming the truth was told and they have been sitting in a box for the last 25+ years. o>O
Honestly if he really cracked those from packs they might have gotten bindered in the 90s and left that way since then. Back then we absolutely kept sets in binders. People who transitioned over from baseball cards might not be super organized and would have a binder that looked like this, just artifacts together, lands together, valuable/trade bait cards together etc. and not really organized any deeper than that.
People knew what the power 9 was but that whole page would have been worth like $100 back then. I didn't start until revised and even that late I remember seeing moxes in shop cases for $20-30 each. I know people who kept all the duals and everything in binders, and when they got multiples they'd keep playsets all in one pocket together. This power 9 page wouldn't have been a real big deal. We all thought they were going to end up like baseball cards or pogs or beanie babies in the long run so it was just having fun for however long it lasted.
But yeah this binder absolutely rings true to me. Even the wear on the cards is legitimate play wear, somebody shuffled these up and played a hundred games with them. Counterfeiters don't do that.
Also there's 10 dual lands and 9 pockets per page. If you have all 10 you always have 1 left over that you have to just stick somewhere or give it its own page or something. Volcanic island is the last one alphabetically so was a common choice to be the odd one out.
I'd guess he had dual lands up front to protect the power 9 because duals were like $4-5, or maybe just put them there so people wanting to trade would see them first because they were highly traded. Then power 9, then had one dual left over and instead of wasting the page just started up the rest of the other lands in the set.
My grandma called me telling me how I need to check the value of my magic cards because she saw this this morning lol. She also told me shell keep an eye out for the flea markets lol
Good grandma.
Thank you grandma.
Magic grandma ♥
Blessings upon your grandmother. I gave my collection to my cousins dad whom sold em for peanutsl ike the dumbass he was, thinking he would give them to the kids as I wanted. I finally got a quarter of the old cards I had and some others in the last 10 years...and I still cannot afford unlimited shocks let alone power 9's lol IT HAPPENED! That weird stoned hippie in the card shop in 1994 was right after just one year of mtg being out.
I find good stuff there sometimes
Lady: idk a couple hundred dollars?
Every Mtg player ever: deal🤝

Hey, I'm really excited for whatever you've got coming up next. Take your time on it. You do incredible work.
My buddy just linked this to me and then I see a Rhystic Studies comment.
Amazing.
I dont even play but learnt how valuable the Black Lotus is from your vid.
Dude is wearing Bape on Antiques Roadshow lmaooo
It's vintage fam 😂

Wearing BAPE, Hyped TF out over Magic cards, on Antique Roadshow. This is the content that hits 3 Generations in 1 video.
"Bape?" Is that the fat version of "Rape?"
@Jordan look up bapesta shoes theyre good looking
"Couple hundred....." lolololololol. I saw that page of power 9 and grew a big smile. I knew she had no clue.
I know I bet it took everything in that guy to not be like IL give you a thousand for all of them
@MyGun4hire i dont think so, if the owner of those cards knew the current value of them, they would def. not still be in that binder. i remember in 1995 the mox set was a couple hundred bucks at my local shop and i was like no way, who would pay that... if i only knew
@@corrob Sounds about right. In 1995 I saw the moxes and lotus and each was individually no more than 30-50. Times like this...wish I had a time machine lol
And by "smile" you mean boner.
I woulda been like, “I’m gonna grant you a once in a life time offer of $1500 for the whole set.”

@@wafflegamer2647 Yes, not being negative but it was all past tense and not a hint of "he'll be happy to hear...". Plus, if you look at her surprised smiles and responses, there is a slight sense of sadness.
I guess he doesn't want to see his cards being sold. It seems like those were important for him given how much care he had for the cards.
When she said "a few hundred bucks?", I think I heard all of us laugh at the same time.
That's the cue for your "Yeah, let me buy those..." xD
Literally went, "Uhhhh. M'am."
I reached for my cheque book.
I actually teared up a little, lmao.
This guy knows his MTG, love it.
Yes, or he's an exceptionally good script reader.
@Jagar Tharn Uhhh, ever played cEDH?
Jagar Tharn you have never played against atog
He does not know magic that well. He makes the claim that there are no dual lands in alpha. Not true. Duals were printed from Alpha through revised.
@@ook222 Volcanic Island wasn't in alpha, the rest were though.
I played MTG wayback in the mid-90s, not sure if its the 4th ed. And these cards particularly the Black Lotus are just myths or legends for the players. Seeing all these cards in one setting is unbelievable. You can tell the host is quite excited too!!!
A friend of mine has several black lotus cards. He told me they are valuable but I didnt know how valuable
@@VenEm a lot. the ones in this vid are not even the most expensive. the Alpha set is. also graded lotus can be worth more than all the cards in this video.
you probably, like me, played with the revised white border cards.
Google Oldschool magic 93/94 and look at our deck pics . I have about 400 real life friends and all of us come packing black lotus and the other power 9. Want to play for ante ??
Lies
It's so bizarre to finally be able to listen to an expert at antiques roadshow and say "yep, this guy knows his stuff".
This is the binder we all thought we would have when playing with trading cards.
anyone who plays with trading cards deserves to get beaten up, including sports cards
@@ongobongo8333 wow what a badass, im sure you are well adjusted and your parents didnt beat you and the reason you jump to violence is not because you have been scared by those events.

She should've went to the evil investor with the floppy taco. This would be a great addition to his collection.
Ronnie Bulaong alpha investments reference haha
He would have told her that those cards were junk and they would end up COSTING her to get rid of them...
no. he's gonna rip her off.
RUDY!!! From alpha investments here and today. And so on
"How much do you think these are worth?" "Couple hundred dollars?" "I'll give you $250 for the set, and that's risky for me."
He either knew his stuff really well before hand, or is researchers did a top notch job of collating the info and writing the script. Either way, great delivery and very accurate presentation. Incredible collection.
The way he was getting excited, I feel he is a huge fan of the game
these shows are always scripted out, the person brings in the stuff off camera and then they do some prep work before cameras ever turn on
Somewhat. I'd argue what he said is pretty common knowledge but I could be wrong. I've played the game for 20 years so I have no idea if new players know that stuff or not - even though it seems like it's common knowledge.
I find it interesting that they didn't mention the reason why Volcanic Island was not in Alpha was a printing error. You also get fun stuff like Cyclopean Tomb not having a mana cost in Alpha as well.
Antiques Roadshow has experts in dozens of areas. This was probably their trading card expert.
One error I caught was that he said the point is to bring your opponents life points to 0. Actually, the point is to win the game and several mill players would say life total its irrelevant.
As an ex-Magic player, just looking at that first binder page with the entire Power Nine on it made my eyes glaze over with lust...
I’ve played magic in the 90s and I’ve never seen a full set of power 9. Seeing at 9 at one time is like you’re at a museum. You’re gonna have to go to a convention to see a full power 9. You can go to all the card shops in your city and won’t even see all power 9 in one spot let alone a lotus. The lotus card is so beautiful, I’ve seen the black lotus one time in my life when I was playing this game in my younger years and that card is like a piece of art.
Had a smile watching the video - as soon as I saw the Power 9, I knew this lady was about to get some extremely good news! Always a joy to see the vintage cards.
“Best culmination of magic cards in one setting”
Rudy from alphainvestments: hold my floppy taco
Hah. To me its just too spread out perfectly and placed to be a legit "not for tv" segment.
I knew I would find a Rudy reference in here. :D
Video seemed to be 5 minutes 19 seconds too short for talking about magic
@@AlphaCitizen Rudy detected
guys, when you buy cards, get the whole set, put it in a binder and pull it out 20 years later. you wife will love it
thats what I have been doing since 2010
Don’t put them in binders individual sleeve and top loaders is the only way to go.
@@VinL82 pro tip
Yeah...no current MTG set produced in the last 10 - 15 years will ever come anywhere near as valuable as those Beta cards. A complete set of cards produced in the 2010s might be worth a few thousand dollars in the 2030s or 2040s, but that's about it. Trying to hoard things like this, expecting them to become valuable in 30 years because the originals did is like people starting to "collect" comic books in the 1990s because they saw the amount of money people were paying for things like _Amazing Fantasy #15,_ or _Detective Comics #27._
@@frocat5163 Maybe. But if it does, guess who will be laughing.
I don't think she believes him... It's kind of funny actually.
She definitely doesn’t believe him😂😂 skepticism all over her face.. I just don’t think she can comprehend that someone would actually buy a card with ink on it for $15,000. Females will never understand 😂
@@JohnFKennedy420 That's kinda sexist. In my local group we have some girls who play just as enthusiastically as the guys.
@@FallenPhoenix72 Never underestimate the power of misogyny.
It's pretty sad, that comment was fine until they decided to throw out a dehumanizing sexist claim.
Of course, she believes him, she just knows how much it is worth already so her reaction is underwhelming. You think this woman's husband hasn't already calculated its worth?
@@sirdigbychickencaesar9482 real answer right here
Host is so passionate about his work :) he truly loves his job ;)
An appraiser on AR? Looking at objects you're passionate about all day? Not a bad gig!
Amazing! 100K value for the ungraded complete Beta set is spot-on (currently).
Hi Tim!
I think it's a bit low for the condition of that set :)
this was probably filmed back when this set was originally worth that much before they spiked in value and it's only just not being put on youtube.
And if you look closely its a complete PLAYSET !! of EACH!!
al dorn uh, no?
@@aladorngm no it is not, you can simply see the cards on the other page of the binder.
What a fun and exciting appraisal. My daughter knew Christopher Rush a couple of years before his passing. She said he was a very nice person. He even made original artwork for her that he signed.
She was banging him xD
Dude, that artwork is probably worth so much now. Obviously I’m sure she’d still like to keep it, but I’d get it appraised for insurance
@@samwilson188 Yeah, it'd be neat to know. I think it's all signed, too.
She looks disgusted lol. Shes been telling him to throw them out for years.
My heart stopped when I saw that black-border Black Lotus.
I assume you don't have the memory of roughly shuffling these cards on pizza grease covered tables then just throwing an elastic around the deck and tossing it in a backpack to scrounge up 3 bucks so you can maybe if you're lucky get a Shivan Dragon and not some stupid artifact mana trash.
Further more throwing away all the alpha cards you havw because its cheating to play with weird cut cards,
I don't even play MTG, and I freaked out when I saw the Black Lotus.
Holy crap, I’m old - when MTG that you played in your teens and 20s is on “Antiques Roadshow”, you know life is now over. 😂
Also, the guy really knows his stuff! I was impressed.
This guy is the best expert I've ever watched. "Power nine baby, unbelievable" 😆
I really cant believe how you would put these cards in a simple binder..... my heart almost stopped
I'm very glad the Roadshow individual gave such an eloquent description of the cards in the binder, particularly the Power 9, to help give an apt description of why they're so valuable and sought after. Expected cringe, got actually nice content that, had I not known of the Power 9 and the ABU print runs already, would've been very informative!
He actually had mistakes in there, for example unlimited was despite it´s name anything but unlimited. It is estimated we have about 3-3.5 k of each beta rare and about 17.5k of each unlimited one. So there is only about 6 times as many unlimited cards as there is beta cards.
Also the way the cards are sorted in the binder makes me highly suspicious this was done to present them for the show. No set collector would sort his cards that way, it makes no sense.
@@terryfeynman oh sure, I was certain the unlimited info was overstated as well.
And yeah, they may have, but frankly, who cares if they did reorganize the cards?
Sometimes, just pausing and miming that your head is exploding is the best way to get across the import of what you're about to say 😂😂
This was explained so wonderfully well great job Travis!
As a TCG collector even looking at this cards in real life is an experience for itself. I got to look at a black lotua in bad condition at a shop in tokio and was just so happy
Hubby is frantically searching his folder!
FINALLLLLLYYYYYYYYY , A real antique roadshow proves that Magic is king in tcg with those power 9 being $50-$75K
This was super awesome - holy cow!!!
My parents saw this and were like "do you still have your Magic cards?" as if I didn't know that I started playing during Revised and don't have any power 9 cards...
Revised dual lands are still worth a decent amount, especially considering you could buy them for $5 back in the day.
I feel your pain. I also started during Revised and only played through Ice Age / Alliances.
@@frocat5163 Those are still awesome cards. They would be really fun to cube draft.
Could be worse, I had most of the Alpha cards, a set of Beta a bunch of loose beta and almost a full set of Unlimited along with a fair amount of Arabian Nights, Antiquities and Legends that I sold for 850$ in 1995. Oopps
What up, fellow “started in Revised” buddy
What I love about this is how you can see the guy (Travis) is actually an MTG fan who knows what he's talking about. I usually cringe when I see "experts" talk about mtg having no clue what they're talking about. This guy is a real one.
What I really love about antiques appraisers in general is just how knowledgeable they are! I honestly believe that appraisers have some of the best memories among people. They recall so much information so fast.
I bet he is their geek culture guy.
He explained the concept and basic rules of the game incredibly well.
Let me know when this woman has a yard sale. She'll probably be selling off her husband's first edition Spidermans and 24k gold bars for ten bucks a pop.
Not after this she won't lol.
Well, no. That's why she went to a professional grader and not to a yard sale. you're just mad.
Are first edition Spidermans worth anything though? I mean I've got 3 sitting in a bookcase and last time I checked I was only offered like $15 for them.
You wouldn't be honest and tell her what she actually has?
I know next to nothing about MTG, but I recognized the Black Lotus right away and buckled in for the ride
Seeing the mox's, ancestral recall, time walk and black lotus sent me over the top. Jesus I was drooling over this
Makes me pissed I sold my whole weather light set 15 years ago

husband was like: you think its all junk, then take it to antique roadshow
100% what happened
@@supernoodles908 No, he is dead. She only talks about him in the past tense, doesn't make any mention of telling him about the cards or confronting/congratulating him. How dense are you people? Why would he tell his wife to take the power 9 to the road show? If he did send her on some kind of errand like that she would have mentioned it.
My dad found all kinds of comic books, and ive seen some magic ads on the back of the comics, and most of the ones that are there are around the 90s. I knew that magic the gathering was getting hot, but i never knew they were 100k for a complete 2nd set hot

I just stumbled on this video. I have 4 black lotus 1993 issue. We're going to have a very Merry Christmas this year.
First antiques roadshow scene ever where I immediately knew the value and that the guest would be absolutely blown away. I've only got 1 black deck remaining from that era but there is some spendy stuff in there.
The ONLY episode I've ever seen featuring Bape.
It was the only guy they could find who knew mtg
I love that you can see the shock and regret on her face from calling these things stupid for so many years
This never gets old.
l would actually love if people brought in more "modern" rarities such as these Magic cards from the 90s, this was a breath of fresh air
The appraiser was so enthusiastic, you could tell he was wildly excited
I enjoy how his voice jumps a bit at the end when he's like "it's ACTUALLY ridiculous." Like that was his first reaction, and he had hold it in while explaining things, and now he can let out the true "well the main thing you should know is this collection is CRAZY" haha.
Oh how a few days can change everything.
My question is did her husband pass, is this some revenge selling of his stuff after a divorce? He obviously knew what the cards were worth since he had the power nine all on one page of the binder.
I think she is just one of those typical women that undervalue their menfolk and their hobbies and lives, and she finally went to ARS and got a wonderful taste of reality. I really hope he did not pass, because she has no idea what those could be worth with slabbing. I wanted to die at her unawareness.
That's my wife with my comics until she learned how much they're worth
Most likely he died and she's trying to sell off some of his stuff to pay for the funeral expenses. Maybe cover any outstanding debts that have been passed into her. Everyone is so quick to be hateful here but I can see none of you know what it's like to live in the real world.
And now you are quick to hating too
He committed suicide from all the nagging she gave him about collecting toys, cards and comics.
Shittiest part is that it's no longer the "kids" college fund, it's "a kid's."

@@RikelWirkkunen Maybe fourty years ago it would have been enough, but $100,000 is not even remotely enough now.

@@shaunmcisaac782 personally for me, I'd probably just hunker down, take fewer classes per year while working a job to keep up with the costs, and graduate later

If you don’t think Rudy has had the biggest influence on magic in the past 4 years. Just look how many Taco comments there are
He is well spoken. He knows his stuff.
I started shaking when they showed those first 2 pages. A lot of the power seems to be in great condition, 2 of the moxes look like they've never been played, the Lotus is great. And everything is there. Amazing collection. Today that would be worth a lot more.
This dude is definitely the same kid from The Toy Hunter that gets brought on in season 2. Nice to see him in Antiques Roadshow and doing well!! Good for you, Travis!
Ok so it’s funny, I was talking with my brother about getting into magic the gathering last night, while playing some other cards (lcr and skip-o. What’s funny is right after talking about mtg this came on while my grandfather was flipping through the channels 😂
Just do it! It is just a great game! Today better than ever. Find the next local game store on the magic website and they should be able to give you 2 free 30 card decks and if they have time show you how to play. There are also regular events called Magic Open House, where people like you are welcomed to come into the store and be trained how to play with other newcomers.
In times of Corona you can also by a spellslingers kit to learn it step by step on your own with your brother. Also the Planeswalker decks could be purchased as the next step.
@@FANBOY41 Are stores not shut down where you live? Game stores are the definition of non-essential, and this has all been a pretty big deal in the community at large because most game stores don't have the financial resources to survive being shut down for a month.
@@FANBOY41 I agree it's a great game, but not so sure it's better than ever. Standard has been a mess the last 4 years or so much they have to ban due to power creep - since you wrote this there's been four sets in a row they messed up and had to ban or errata (oko, cat oven, once upon a time, uro, the entire companion mechanic and now omnath). Hasbro unfortunately seems to care more about profits than the long-term implications of pushing card power levels to high and players dropping off.
Arena's probably the best thing for new players to get into it- pandemic aside as it's cheaper to get a half-way competetive deck and it handles the rules so new players don't get so confused. But playing in person with a good group is the best for sure
it came up in your feed because your tech is SPYING ON YOU!!!
Poor dude is going to have his cards sold
You can't actually play them and I can't imagine a normal person would want to go against the Power 9 in casual play. Might as well make that paper.
@@AllfatherBlack they have actually increased in value as a collectible in recent years as well as I think there is still one format.
@@AllfatherBlack I mean, I play ancestral in highlander, p9 has a decent amount of demand for niche formats.
Jacob - your words disgust me
I sense that he died from the way she talks and responds with never a full smile.
And on page 20 there's a big fat "I told you so" dedicated to her at the end there, in mint condition as well.
I like the genuine enthousiasm of the appraiser.
Man this it they lady who would of sold these cards at a. Garage sale for like 20 bucks
This guy is a new guy but I'm obsessed. He is so fun!
My god, what a beautiful set.
OMG black lotus right on the top left. My heart just about stopped.
This set literally might be worth pushing a million dollars if the grading goes good these days.
A million? No , a hundred thousand is more realistic
@@Zerospawnn Nah. A good Black Lotus alone is worth more than $100K lol.
@@Skellist you're still relying on the remaining cards to cover 900k, thats a huge ask. The rest of the power might bring you up another 200k if you're lucky, no shot the rest get you there.
@@Zerospawnn a grade 10 black lotus sold for half a million in january
@@Zerospawnn Nope. Realistically that black lotus alone-well graded- would get over $300k+ at auction alone. One sold last year for $500k but they consistently get around $300k at auction.
His beard looks like it's drawn on
I was just thinking how cartoonish just how solidly filled in it is
I mean this is a cartoon show
Seneca Crane
Looks like?
It’s all I could look at. Epic facial hair
Thank you for the video
That's really insane for some ink and a card stock!
A foil 1st edition grade 10 charizard sold for $250k within the last year
True. Remember that many expensive paintings are just paint on canvas.
It's just scarcity. These cards can never be reprinted, and there are only so many in existence. The price is simply whatever the richest interested party is willing to pay. It only takes one fan with an 8 figure bank balance and bingo, $100k is really not a big thing at that level.
@@Redskies453I agree with the scarcity and the subjectiveness of the value. However, I think these cards can be reprinted but obviously the first cards would have some valuable traits compared to their reprints such as their originality and physical features that only those cards would possess. The reprints would have value as well; just not as much. Take holographic "Charizard" cards for example from Pokemon TCG base set and "XY Evolutions" set. The reprint from "XY Evolutions" has considerable value given the right condition and print (google shopping). Will they be reprinted is unknown. Thank you for taking the time to read.
@@garcia-buckner7702 There is a legal issue with reprinting some cards. The publisher has stated that they will not reprint any of the cards on their "reserved list" and there is a legal argument with precedent that this constitutes a passive contract with current owners of the cards to protect the value of the cards. If they were to reprint those specific cards they may be liable to compensate collectors for the loss in value.
when she said "a couple hundred bucks" i literally laughed out loud
I felt like dying...*sighs * All these young women saying they are gamers and into tcg nowadays, yet many of them are about the same age as this lady. WTF?! lol
That was my exact reaction. I saw the power nine and though "Jesus. thats 5 figures there for sure" and she said 'a coulple hundred.." lulz.
Anyone who owns these cards knows how valuable they are... this guy must really trust his wife.
Jayce from Arcane has an amazing hobby.
I got in on Magic the Gathering when it first came out. Had quite a few Alphas and like 2 sets of the Betas. Sold it like 3 years later for 7000 dollars. Bought a car and bought a computer which led to a career in IT. Pretty good investment in my opinion.
Congrats. You did a ton with that 7K.

That is one fine collection of luxury cardboard!
Can remember one of my old friends who played magic with duallands. Sleeveless. Those were the days!
