  • Yes, we always see people saying it, influencers get better shirts, companies favour them etc… but DO THEY? Well, in todays video we’re putting that to the test with SIX mystery boxes. Who gets the better shirts? The influencer or the consumer? Let’s find out!

    Used to do a monthly mystery shirt box. Got a load of weird teams. Got a lot of Macron. Eventually found out that all shirts were £20 on CFS compared to the £34.99 I was paying and realised I was getting ripped off.

    Honestly, I think out of these the result is inconclusive at least for the way you did it. That's 4 decent shirts, but even the best shirt (the Milan shirt) has the wrong print style on the back which knocks it down (especially if you're sending to someone who has a following could notice). It wasn't a ridiculous difference between the two. The last two I'd say are similar levels.
    I think it would be completely different if the company came to you for advertisement instead of this way around.

    • @casualfootballshirts7921
      @casualfootballshirts7921 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      The Milan one was initially for sale on my site at £39.99 due to the wrong print. I always look for a shirt that I would be happy to get for £34.99 to put in the vintage mystery boxes.

    I've found reaching out to others in the collecting community to buy a shirt for me based on a set of criteria is far more exciting - you know they will spend the money in a good way and generally means you can retain a little bit of control over what you get. It's also fun for them!

  • @UnknownSpectre5
    @UnknownSpectre5 2 ปีที่แล้ว +323

    Honestly, this was an interesting experiment. The shirts received (aside from the first ones... DANG CROOK) were great. And to answer that, honestly I would not be mad at all if I got the Spain 04 kit in a mystery box (then again I don't have a kit to my name lmao).

    To be fair I would take the Spain 04 over the AC Milan shirt, however, the AC Milan is a bit better look-wise. I would definitely say that both are good pulls. The Germany shirt is pretty sick and the Palermo one looks better. All of the 4 kits are very good in my opinion tho, some neat pulls.

  • @adriangeremia
    @adriangeremia 2 ปีที่แล้ว +13

    I think the two sellers (that isn’t a crook) are definitely doing a very good job, normally you’d get some lower league shirt from CFS for so cheap but they’ve done quite well. I think I’d personally buy one box just for the sake of it (from someone that isn’t a fraud), but it’s not something I’d be looking to make money on, nor get a specific shirt. Fantastic video once again, cannot wait to see what’s next in store 🙌

    Honestly considering 2004 might have been the first year that Spain was out of the banter era a bit (they were in the same group as Greece and Portugal who ended up being the final and in 2006 Spain thrashed their group and got pretty damn unfortunate to have to play against France, of course 2002 Spain was also really unlucky) I think the Spain kit is actually really cool

    For sneaker mystery boxes the typical thing now is if they send you 10 pairs of sneakers, there will be 1 really good pair you might want, but can be hard to sell be cause the expensive stuff has fewer buyers and 9 pairs of crap that technically put the value over what you paid, but almost nobody will want to buy.
    So the listed value might be fine on paper but it's just a way for them to get rid of stuff they couldn't sell otherwise.

    Ellis please do this experiment on Football Shirt companies, instead of Ebay listings. I feel like the companies with higher reputations and influencers tied to their companies have more to gain from sending you nicer shirts, and more to lose when comparing them to Mikey, who will probably just get shirts from the CFS sale section. I think that would be more telling than just doing individual Ebay sellers
