There's money there no doubt. One high grade can swing value immensely, but all that takes additional expense and vetting the cards worth grading. I'd say the collection is probably worth around 25-30k, 12-15k short sell, but if you took the time to grade vintage $100+ mints or better you could squeeze 35-45k out of everything
@@AnuddaGoy I mean, who wouldn't want to feel or be able to look back and say "holy, they went above and beyond for me." This dude doesn't just have that, his family also stored his stuff for 25 years and gave it back to him! Who wouldn't be jealous of that? Or want it? You must be as spoiled as he was. 😂
Oh, I just forgot I had 7 large picnic tables worth of pokemon cards and pokemon related stuff. This exact scenario happens to me all the time. How you forget you opened all them packs as a kid? 😂
This is a amazing collection, Leonhart needs to get a hands free camera the way he was handling some of the items gave me wild amounts of anxiety for something that isn’t even mine 😂
I was born in 97 so didn't really experience the first wave of pokemon craziness, the only thing I can say is good lord, they made a LOT of merch back then. I can't even comprehend it
Agreed. Very happy he was able to film this. I also love the guy was a player as a kid and didn’t just collect. Those stories are always great to hear.
what a crazy nostalgia trip. I recognized having so many of these items. every time you looked at something knew i found myself saying oo i had that no way!
Oh, what a nostalgia trip. I remember having those cards…unfortunately I threw all my base unlimited cards away and gym leader, team rocket sets when we moved. My parents was complaining that it’s taking up space. Oh well, thanks for sharing what an amazing nostalgia trip.
@Matches-Malone same here, but I didn't throw them away. They got mistaken for trash, and my brother threw them out. By the time I found out it, a long time had passed. So I couldn't do or say much about it.
Also, the metal coins were part of a game that was made where they would spin and whatever it lands on that was in the direction of the other coin was what happened for your action. I used to have a bunch of those. I just can't remember how the spinning worked for it, if it was with fingers or a spinner of sorts
Awesome video and thanks for recording this. These type of collections (not just Pokémon) are becoming harder and harder to find. Love the stories behind him playing at the bookstore and in the league. Id imagine this would be hard for him to sell as it seems a good chunk of his life for a few years was Pokémon. Hopefully he kept the checklist he was making with his mom as that is priceless.
Lucky. I traded some mechanical pencils, pens, and erasers for digimon figures, then traded those for a machop card and a ponyta. Then i traded other stuff for more cards and had ro keep trading. I wish i grew up a bit more wealthier.
I swear that's all that matters to you is money! That whole collection is Phenomenal! And those Topps Chrome Cards etc aren't Cheap! Especially The Chrome ones!
Bro that Pokemon Master Trainer DX I would love to come across it again. It was my absolute favorite board game as a kid but I lost my old one. Such a great collection!
man that’s an amazing collection. i would keep it all if that were mine. i wish i had all my cards from back in the day i had full sets of base 1st edition all the way through skyridge as well
Amazing collection, those are great Pokémon items, I have a lot of those items when Pokémon started. I try to buy everything, but at some time, I have to be selective because there are too many things haha
I still have all my old pokemon cards from when i was a kid, my pokemon items are the one thing i have left from my childhood and i've been super protective of them since i plan on keeping them and continuing to add to my collection. My collection of older cards are nowhere near as extensive as this though. I'd get a few pack for my birthday or Christmas or on special occasions but that was it. this would have been my childhood dream. I feel like this collection belongs in some kind of exbit on display.
I'm surprised he didn't wind up getting one of the error Electrodes from Jungle, where WotC used Base set art on the non-holo. I have (or had, more likely) one of those, and I remember them being pretty sought after, even back then.
The metal coins were another game, my brother had two sets (I think I have them in a box now) but you would spin them and wherever they landed towards each other would be the damage they do to each other
some saying he got ripped off. but for 10k if he is decided on just selling it, i think its good. Not everyone has the time to go the extra mile on selling each individual piece for a better price. from what I can see his place, the way he speaks, he looks like a busy man. It's like "the barn find" of car culture where they bought rare exotic cars for a price of an old beat up civic.
One thing I miss is pokemon stuffed toys with candy inside. I miss that candy cause it was my favorite the texture of that candy was great but don't have that anymore
I remember seeing alot of this when I was a kid, we had some figures, a pokedex, and some of the burger king stuff! we didn't get into cards until closer to the 2000s eras, but once in a while we found older packs like fossil and rocket at secondhand stores.
I hate that I had a collection like this as a kid but in my teens i learned my mom "lost" the storage unit that had my entire collection of pokemon and yugioh
This is so cool. I sold my whole collection about 15 years ago. ( Not close to this, but had some good cards) for 30 bucks and I think about it ever day. I wish I would have kept them.
We moved, had a yard sale, and my parents threw all the cards away......thats what happened to my collection. My parents told us some guy bought all our cards for $50 and my bro and I split the $50. Then told us many years later that isnt what happened, they threw them away

*Thank you Will for taking us through some amazing memories!*
He had just a tiny amount of cards😂.... wow though!
second reply leonhart :)
It's like going to a friend's house to see his collection. My favorite pokemon is Ivysaur.
Reminds me of the good days. Not a care in the world just trying to catch em all!
Wow I remember winning that pokemon wallet in the arcades at circus circus in Reno when I was younger
If he sold this for 10,000. He got ripped off really bad.
Don't you think he'll think first before he sells at that amount?
@@Adept4Adeptpeople don’t think
Collection is prob worth well over 100k
He clearly doesn’t need the money

oh he was WEALTHY as a child
You are jealous
@@AnuddaGoyof course lol, who wouldn’t be

Did you mean WILL THY?
@@AnuddaGoy the word you’re looking for is envious, which, along with jealousy, is a perfectly normal and valid feeling 👍
Lowballing his cards that holo zard is not approx 100$ 😂
Bro he always be judging other peoples cards saying oh not bad but I have blah blah lmao. Like dude relax
right i wish any of these prices were accurate haha
The winner here are the parents, those parents are awesome and hope this dude knows that.
Only 10.000????😂no way
Oh, I just forgot I had 7 large picnic tables worth of pokemon cards and pokemon related stuff. This exact scenario happens to me all the time. How you forget you opened all them packs as a kid? 😂

This is literally a Pokemon museum. Imagine the collection room you could build around this stuff. Great trip down memory lane
I was born in 97 so didn't really experience the first wave of pokemon craziness, the only thing I can say is good lord, they made a LOT of merch back then. I can't even comprehend it
Not everything is super liquid, but the value must be well over $10k
"found"? He grew up a diehard pokemon kid who had a huge AF collection.
I don’t think he got ripped off value wise at all but his own nostalgia from collecting with his mom. I couldn’t have done it for 1.4 million
Yeah seems like such a huge part of his childhood just sold. I wouldn't sell it personally either.
In the same situation I’d keep it till I die. Wouldn’t care if value went to 0.
Bar far one of the best videos of an actual childhood collection... INCREDIBLE! The memories returned... thank you!
Agreed. Very happy he was able to film this. I also love the guy was a player as a kid and didn’t just collect. Those stories are always great to hear.
Mom should have been here for this video, could’ve answered a lot of questions, would have been a cool perspective!
Your work on this is so clear!
what a crazy nostalgia trip. I recognized having so many of these items. every time you looked at something knew i found myself saying oo i had that no way!
That dark machamp card is just awesome man
Bro ripped him off for a vid haha 😂😂😂😂😂

He found out about this in church? I was banned from Pokemon as a kid because of church😂
Church in 2024 is not the same as in 2000.

For real

What a great video! I absolutely loved the pictures at the end! I wish I still had all my cards from when I was a kid.
oh my goodness I'm just smiling throughout this entire video! I loved his collection!
17:48 i think its for game cube! this is sooo nostalgic!
@Leonhart
Wow you robbed him smh
This was honestly one of the best collections I've ever seen from a kid! That is just wild. A true Pokefan. I'm oozing nostalgia! 😅
Bro that Pokemon Master Trainer DX I would love to come across it again. It was my absolute favorite board game as a kid but I lost my old one. Such a great collection!
the crazy thing is how MINT all the boxes are not just how clean the cards are
The TCG CD-ROM!! I still have mine too~
Good on that guy being able to keep all his stuff in good condition. I hope you gave him a fair price
No he low balled him bad
@@chipsdubbo5.5610k seems like an absolute steal for leonhart
@@imaflocker5885 yeah it definitely is, leonhart got a very good deal especially considering it is all in very good condition.
This was so fun to watch! Thanks for sharing!! I enjoyed seeing all the nostalgia.
man that’s an amazing collection. i would keep it all if that were mine. i wish i had all my cards from back in the day i had full sets of base 1st edition all the way through skyridge as well
Will is a REAL G! This is a Fantastic video so far!
Amazing collection, those are great Pokémon items, I have a lot of those items when Pokémon started. I try to buy everything, but at some time, I have to be selective because there are too many things haha
@leonhart is giving me Antiques Roadshow vibes and I love it
Really wish there wasn’t such a loud dinging sound lol
i swear.... lmaooo
What made this video way better was leonhart knowledge on the sets and etc😮😮
I still have all my old pokemon cards from when i was a kid, my pokemon items are the one thing i have left from my childhood and i've been super protective of them since i plan on keeping them and continuing to add to my collection.

Glad someone else’s favourite as a kid was Charmeleon, the looks I get when I say the same thing 😅
This is everyone’s grail at a yard sale/ estate sale etc. Someone clearing out you know “just some old things” 😅 Can’t wait to see if you made a deal
13:03 awww...that's so freaking Sick and Wholesome🥺😇😇❤
I was gym leader at toys r us in Massachusetts. That was super fun! cool to see the badges and books again!
I'm surprised he didn't wind up getting one of the error Electrodes from Jungle, where WotC used Base set art on the non-holo. I have (or had, more likely) one of those, and I remember them being pretty sought after, even back then.
Damn they were rich. That's a lot of stuff to "lose"
I had a master set for base set 1st edition. I am sure my parents sold it at a yard sale for a few bucks
Brooo that is so sad you can get a first edition charizard
The metal coins were another game, my brother had two sets (I think I have them in a box now) but you would spin them and wherever they landed towards each other would be the damage they do to each other

Wow, what an amazing collection. It's always surprising when these guys don't just grade and slab most of them instead.
this is closer to 20k easily. If he sold everything for 10k that's pretty brutal. I'd take it all right now for 15k
More like 50-100k cards were pre Munch nm or better sealed shit dude got ripped off
I was poor as a kid. It's interesting to see how good others have it when I was 10...
God I hurts seeing all those cards raw dogged without penny sleeves
That's a really cool collection, God dang. I hope he got the money worth tho
Cuts the video before he reveals how much he scalps him for 😂
Great collection! The vhs really do it for me!
those metal coins at 16:00 are battle coins. i have a few :D
I had so much of that growing up. This was a great video to watch
One thing I miss is pokemon stuffed toys with candy inside. I miss that candy cause it was my favorite the texture of that candy was great but don't have that anymore
Wow…he even left some of the prices on his cards?
You are the most unique pokemon channel I've ever seen.

I hate that I had a collection like this as a kid but in my teens i learned my mom "lost" the storage unit that had my entire collection of pokemon and yugioh
I didnt have much but sold my lot at the flee market for like 50$ LOL
Lovely collection. But definitely didn't sleeve them as a kid & made him do it for the video. Still love to see the nostalgia though
This is so cool. I sold my whole collection about 15 years ago. ( Not close to this, but had some good cards) for 30 bucks and I think about it ever day. I wish I would have kept them.
You can always buy your favorites now!
Totally awesome video man 😎!
We moved, had a yard sale, and my parents threw all the cards away......thats what happened to my collection. My parents told us some guy bought all our cards for $50 and my bro and I split the $50.
Then told us many years later that isnt what happened, they threw them away
i’d do anything for that neo umbreon it’s so clean
Most of that stuff is in good condition, $10,000 wasnt a fair price
Epic collection got any snorlax im putting together a collection of them
This guy sent one card in to be graded and made his money back
This is just really amazing as it is so great seeing this old collection.
If Rare Candy is showing a Japanese Alakazam as $51.00 then there is a problem with your app.
Almost 2 million subscribers 😄
Wasn't able to afford these when I was a child 🎉but now is the time
Dope, however, I heard him say he kept the game boy in his personal collection, can we get a tour of that?
Bro likes Charmeleon, one of my faves.
The Golbat plush looks awesome T_T
W parents and grandparents for real.
he didn't have any legendary collection or E-readers? I kept waiting for reverse legendary charizard
Poor dude probably got low balled so hard.
damn no legendary collection im surprised with all these hits.
TALK ABOUT RIPPING SOMEONE OFF THEN TELLING THE WORLD! WOW
Anybody else thinking all these cards are severely under valued
Ive had all of these VHS cassets episodes as a kid. I think there were 8 of them
this is actually beautiful to see
19:32 dragon ball spotted
All those items should be in a Pokemon Museum
4:51 anyone else notice the 1 random reverse that’s not a base set card I think it’s an altaria
I had the same Charmeleon costume!
Ponyta in a sleeve but holos not is insane 😂
NO way it's worth over 10G!
leonhart..lmaoooooooo laughing stock of the Pokemon community
Thanks, Will!
This is awesome !!
