That 70’s show camera work.
I was about to say the same thing 😂
Edwin: Elon has this car...that runs on water maaann!!
omg yes!
Did you know the government is working on a car that runs on water?
IT RUNS ON WATER, MAN!
Irrelevant. The oil companies will buy the patent then bury it.
I'm here for the Balls
skadoosh!
Ball Boy Gaming everybody
Skadoosh!
@@EdwintheMagicEngineer Hey Edwin!
Go do some drugs you scammer
pokemon is about the collection, as a video game, an anime and tcg. Pikachu as a card is special and collectible, a special version of Pikachu is a special collectible. mtg doesn't have that distinguishing collectability. a new set is printed and there's no attachment to a new mythic or higher rarity cards.
What did you think of the new Pikachu card they just revealed? (The SAR from Supercharged Breaker).
@@monkey39128 tbh I know nothing about Pokemon cards.
@@twoferone5729 Ohh ok. Sorry just assumed because of the profile picture. 😂
@@monkey39128 Im a 1992 baby so I've been playing rby/gsc since childhood. imI LOVE pokemon!
The recent series of videos, in your house, with all these great minds… is absolutely fantastic; Eye opening to be honest. I’ve been watching you since pre-demic, you have been and are my source for magic and have helped me get into the investment side of magic.
I appriciate your knowledge and seeing what you can achieve if you do it correctly financially. I get that insight seeing the art on the walls of your house… maybe someday you’ll do a house tour (and cost of the pieces :D)? But truly, I underestimated how well off I could be if I listened to your advice. You've clearly made it Rudy! And! AND!!! you charge nothing for your advice. It’s amazing.
Rudy hated the Dragonite EX boxes 7 years ago but boy are they expensive now!
Loving the That 70s Show 360 camera conversations more plz 🎉
I see Rudy smiling. I start smiling.
Better than the 90's show 😂
Yeeee..... That will be a crash and burn for sure.
It got awkward with some of the girl RP fantasy and sexual talk considering the age of the characters.... And everything that's come up with Danny and now Ashton
Always enjoy when the crew comes together
Good to see the whole gang together!
I can't believe you release this before I go out for the night.
Better little Saints than an Earth filled with little Rudys!
20:04
"...you're not in these spaces."
"You are in _the_ basement sir."
lol
Too much socializing going on lately Rudy. One may even think you dont live in a basement and have actual friends

If a company grades a card or case, or comic as authentic. They absolutely should be liable for the value of the item if it is proven to be fake.
This is a good series Rudy keep
It up
Giving that 70s show vibe, pretty cool
The earth is flat - Ask the engineer - 0.014 degrees per mile is well within tolerance of flat.
I still want to hear a long form discussion with Edwin and Rudy on the economy and investing!
There is a bit coming up but it’s hard to keep Rudy on topic with these videos
WOOOOO MORE BASEMENT CONFESSIONS LETS GO BABYYYYY
We need some Metapoo investing videos🔥
Dude's adams apple has its own universe
Great content for all the community's of Pokemon , magic and other board games.
I personally hate graded older mtg cards because I have to crack the case to play with them. It’s really f in annoying.
Hey CONGRATULATIONS on the unlimited duals!!!
That 70’s show rotation… I see you, Rudy aka Cheech 😂
1 second in and I though Rudy shaved his head, like he had a Brittany Spears mental break down.
Lmao😂
This is definitely the series to keep
The reason people grade Pokemon more than magic is because more people play magic than Pokemon and there are more collectors in Pokemon than magic.
Pass the Jeweled Bluntus
It’s simple, Pokémon is on a whole different level then MTG cuz of the original games & millions of kids who grew up with it
Now they can buy art style cards of those now
I love this “that 70 show” format. But, where is the weed 👀?
Love the Craig furgeson reference
that house looks like an airbnb
Food for thought. Serialized magic cards have been reprinted. Chromatic lanterns was serialized in both brothers war and ravnica remastered. So we know they can be reprinted same as any other non reserve list cards
This is a great set up for you! I enjoyed this video because you are talking to other people who share your common passion! =)
Basement Confessions: Inflation, Taco, Balls, Commander
Clicked for the infectious smile, stayed for balls
"I heard the earth is flat" out of left field hahahahha
I'm enjoying the That 70's Show vibe I'm getting from this video. You guys don't need to be high to be funny either.
Hello
10:24 😂😅 LMFAO ❤❤❤
Dont change Rudy
Wonky camera work and 4 dudes in Alpha Investments t-shirts discussing cardboard. What more can you ask for?😂
So I have an epic cube that me and my friends created with our “bulk” at the time and it’s monotonous now. And we never look in it…
Folks Welcom back!!!
Rudy you gotta be in on PC Surging Sparks ETBS!!! That Magneton is soooo firreeeeeee, pick some up fella
I’m gonna start a Folks! grading company
Rudy you sick s.o.b. count me in !
hearing these guys shout out ShinyVert is kinda crazy lol
that moment when you realize this video was not filmed today and btc is not actually at 65k :(
It was filmed Thursday the 26th of October 2024
I loved every moment of this vid. Thanks for the laughs.
i thnk rudy was thinking of the $7 craving box from taco bell, it good deal but yeah used to been like $5. good times
Is that baby oil in the background?
dont tell me Rudy has been to a Diddy party, pls dont 😭😭😭
Attack on Titan, and Is it Wrong to try to pick up Grils in a Dungeon? Seen these as sets and searched for each series. After watching both. They are extremely additive by the way. Then realized how beautiful weiss tcg is. Started buying product from both series. If you have not watched any of these shows, please do. Will not be disappointed.
24:00 no. look at ravnica remastered...can buy serialized for 35 EUR (40 bucks) all the graphs went down since day one
I just come here for the, “Folks!”
funny how the the least wealthiest person in the room looks the most respectful and well groomed! By the way Rudy, if you don't get a new $15 haircut for a few days you could almost pull off a Giorgio A. Tsoukalos impression with the hollow earth aliens stuff! 69'th comment by the way!
I've been a comic collector for years. Cgc is where the money is at for a flip, but for pc items, i prefer cbcs because they grade harder. However, I like my magic cards raw and double sleeved 😂. I play with them and dont even care about the grade. I've been collecting magic since 94 and gotten in and out 3 times over the 30 years. I'm back in and only play commander. I don't mind buying reserved list cards at heavy play and keep the savings to buy more. New modern cards I will not spend over 100 on.
Buddy Christ!!! ❤❤❤
Pokemon results in too much bulk. Do people just throw it away?
The failure of magic is that they released a collector addition where pulling the best card is a 1 in 10 box situation. An alt rare in pokemon is a 1 of 100 boxes opened and there is no way to cheat it with a collector box.
pokemon is graded because people value the collectors value over the playing value. Magic isn’t graded because people value them as “game pieces” rather than collectible pieces.
It seems very rare that a magic card is expensive based purely off of art, whereas this is common with things like pokemon or one piece.
YESS!!! More balls for us all!
final fantasy is going to be insane if they do tifa or tydus
Which Marvel set are you guys talking about... topps?
Balls.
Loved episode 420
when does this marvel set release? how many pallets can i preorder?
Japanese anime.....and ...melons?
"Bouncing on top as she should do" *side eyes* "amen" 😂😂😂😂😂😂guys!!!!! Wtf!!!! Chil! 😂😂😂😂😂 god i love these video they are pure gold! Thank you!!!!
The primary focus of Magic is to play the game, and collecting is secondary. The primary focus of pokemon is to collect cards and playing the game is the secondary focus. That's why people want to grade pokemon, people are gonna wanna collect those slabs. Nowhere near the demand for Magic slabs.
It’s actually a really fun bet I love them both marvel and final fantasy, I’d want to say marvel on volume but final fantasy, gamers, passionate. Look forward to seeing
Most Pokemon value is derived from it being collectible. Most Magic value is derived from it being playable. Yugioh is similar to Magic in that manner.
!!I recently sold some of my long-term position and currently sitting on about 250k, do you think Nvidia is a good buy right now or I have I missed out on a crucial buy period, any good stock recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated
As a beginner investor, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable.
Ruth Ann Tsakonas is my trade analyst, she has guided me to identify key market trends, pinpointed strategic entry points, and provided risk assessments, ensuring my trades decisions align with market dynamics for optimal returns.
I managed to grow a nest egg of around 120k to over a Million. I'm especially grateful to Adviser Ruth Ann Tsakonas, for her expertise and exposure to different areas of the market.
I don't really blame people who panic. Lack of
information can be a big hurdle. I've been
making more than $100k passively by just
investing through an advisor, and I don't have
to do much work. Inflation or no inflation, my
finances remain secure. So I really don't blame
people who panic.
Without a doubt! Ruth Ann Tsakonas is a trader who goes above and beyond. she has an exceptional skill for analyzing market movements and spotting profitable opportunities. Her strategies are meticulously crafted based on thorough research and years of practical experience.
nice!! once you hit a big milestone, the next comes easier. How can i reach her, if you don't mind me asking?
I have 69 reasons why I love Rudy!!!😂
Which modern Magic is doing well besides Fallout? I wanted to start adding Magic boxes to my holds but all the charts look atrocious.
Florida dads get pushed to the basement by their wives due to their obsession with cardboard investments
What bull market? Negative EV on boxes approximately at distro on eBay.
Dude who is buying cards for his daughter has no idea why people slab pokemon cards.
It's not the kids doing the grading or the parents doing the grading. It's the older collectors and speculators doing this. The reason why these are graded is because Pokemon is FIRST AND FOREMOST a COLLECTABLE. The amount of people who only collect dwarf the number of people who play the game. So the value of pokemon cards is derived from its collectability/rarity.
The reason this is not a thing with MTG cards is because their value is derived from PLAYABILITY. MTG has always been a game people played first and very few collected. Even with collector boosters, most people are not collecting MTG. People buy the "bling" versions to "pimp out" their decks.
That’s exactly what my point was
I was into Final Fantasy 1 on NES.
OK that’s the point you’re missing, they’re not authenticating if it’s real, they’re not even valuing the card. They’re only telling you in their opinion if the card looks nice or not. End of story. If it’s real, and how much it costs is up to you and the market. These companies owe you nothing. You’re the one putting your faith in a plastic slab. that’s it. that’s why I never use them and all my cards are raw, and I will charge market price as I please 🤷🏻♂️
Time to invest in Lorcana?
Magics a players game pokemons a collectors game
Rudy you really need to have a Pokémon collector who actually knows what they’re talking about come on the channel. I’d recommend Alex from nostalgia nomics. Hearing these guys talk about how “the demographic of people grading Pokémon cards is parents for their young children,” is painful to the ears.
Reminds me of taxi cab confessions
Want to do a magic deal with most wanted man on the planet
It’s because most people play mtg. Most people buying Pokémon don’t play. You can’t play with a slabbed card
Graders will never BE FORCED to pay for a counterfeit card. Because at no point do they own the merchandise in question. The service they provide is an opinion in writing. If the market doesn't value their opinion then they don't have a business.
Yeah that was my point. Graders should be willing to refund grading and shipping costs, but not get involved with market prices of cards. Unless they charged a LOT more for that risk
Beckett is like 4th on the graded card power rankings.
For Final Fantasy, there's a big issue.
On one hand, you have the "classics", from 1 to let's say 7 or 8, then Square Enix did the X and upward with a success and an interest for the games in decline. So much so that they did the 7 Remake.
I'm a year or two older than Rudy, and I am still a huge fan of FF7. I even bought most of my PS because of FF, until the XIII, which was garbage and then I stopped. It's hard to guess how younger gamers feel about this serie.
For Marvel, although the MCU is in the dumps right now, you still have a HUGE following WORLDWIDE.
The question of value will most likely be a question of print-run. Either Hasbro overdoes it for either one or both, and it'll fail either way, or they do it right, and then I'll bet on FF due to a higher scarcity stemmed from a relatively smaller fanbase.
However, there's so many ways for Hasbro to fail miserably that no one can really tell at this point.
Do you think Rudy asked them to wear his branded shirt for this video?
Does the trump tariff affect my Japanese tcgs?
All the Japanese stuff is cheaper now due to yen crash. That hurts their value much more than tariffs
Giggity
People play MTG, people collect Pokemon. That’s the reason people don’t grade new mtg cards.
I thought Rudy got a buzzcut at start of the video
Here's my take... WotC is going to underestimate FF and overestimate Marvel, and print runs are going to reflect imo.
Where's the basement Rudy?
VInce Masuka is the GOAT
