      either the whole story was made up and "the guru" resealed the packs and said he got them from someone else, or he bait and switched the legit cards for the fake ones and still has the original set. either way hes a scummy pos.

      Exactly lol it just didnt happen.. The best you will find is someone who literally opened them and put them straight in a good binder or in hard cases.. Other then that all of the 1st edition boxes are owned by serious collectors and either sold to people like Logan to open or they just sit on them to increase value.

    I like how, during the “Guru’s” explanation, he sounded completely guilty. “I did the peek test, and everything looked legit.” Past tense. They hadn’t even called him out yet, and he’s already pleading his case.
    And if there was a “money back guarantee” or whatever, then why did he claim later to be out money? Did the “guarantee” fall through?

    22:21 I cringed a little inside watching him drop it, but you know, it happens. The cards are kind of small, very understandable that they could get dropped. At least it’s a very short distance. It’s probably ok, but definitely not ideal. I’m sure he understands how careful he needs to handle these cards, and he’s not going to make that mistake again.
    *drags the card across the table*
    I legit dropped my jaw when I saw that. I could not believe they would do something like that. Not to mention they’re handling these cards bare handed. The oils on their fingertips are going to ruin the value of those cards.

      bruh, don't forget that he need to fuckin' hit the card with the table in order to put it to the plastic(?)

      Literally no one handles cards with gloves, in fact amateur card handlers use gloves because you can damage the card easier with gloves on. Pressure control is easier with bare hands and you can snag the glove on it.

      I'm soo glad I followed this rabbit hole from the cryptozoo thing I was absolutely cackling at that part. I wouldn't scrape my $1 Cinderace V on the table like that.

      Im not even really collecting cards. I buy maybe three times a year some Yu-Gi-Oh cards, depends on the product, if its interest me.
      It hurted so much seeing this card gets dragged over the table.

    I clicked this video on accident, and since Pokémon has never appealed to me, I found it interesting the price people pay for these cards and the lengths to which they will go to scam others.
    Good video

      Facts they didn't know it was a scam yet until he mentioned that and that made Leon suspicious right of the bat especially if it was kept in a safe for 20 years
