Also, I am planning to go live at 5:00pm EST tomorrow here on YT. I’ll either rip my high end basketball boombox (if it arrives on time) or a box of Chinese New Year Revolution Basketball. Hope you guys can make it!
Got it! Thanks!
Wow would love to see cny revo!!
Packman question.... are the boom boxes just out of stock now? Cause it won’t let me buy one
Not sure it may come back in with different packs
Thank you packman I don't know much about cards thank you
A lot of people need to see this. Including myself.
Hope this helped!
Sammmme
I agree
Yes they do. People waste a lot of money on junk lol
do you know where i can see the price of these cards? like is there a website or app where i can see all the value of these cards?
You should do a room tour / show us all your cards
I have too many lol
Packman We knew you have too many rooms lol
Pack man you should do a card collection
Packman just do it please 💀😂
You should do a review of your best cards
I’ve been in the hobby since like 2nd and 3rd grade but I never new what I was looking for. This will really help in the future. Thank your very much and your channel is great.
Thank you so much for this video, you literally covered everything I was trying to figure out search by search you really summed it all up.
I will be watching this over & over to retain the knowledge & information you went over.
Thank you
No problem! Glad I can help!
I've been out of the hobby for 26 years and just needed a catch-up video to get up to speed with the latest in cards. This video was perfect for me since I knew the basics and got to know the current ways to learn about my card options and pricing research. Thanks!
Np! Glad I could help and welcome back!
Great video! Im new to this hobby after finding some old cards I had when i was younger... and I’ve been watching a bunch of your vids to try to get a better grip of the hobby so this video was perfect for me thank you!
Thanks! Glad I could help!
I’m new to the hobby and I’m happy that your channel exists. I can finally do box breaks here in the Philippines. Keep it up fellow TH-camr!
Thanks a lot! Good luck and enjoy the hobby!
Currently into collecting Pokémon again, as I did as a child but I also happen to be a sports fanatic who would love to get into this hobby as well. Very informative and I look forward to using some of the information to help me along my journey. Thank you, Packman!
Awesome to hear! Glad the vid was helpful and thanks for watching!
this was definitely a much needed video because i know a ton of people, including myself, that started collecting again once the sports hiatus started
Glad I could help!
I’ve always loved watching NBA games, but never thought about collecting cards. This video has a lot of good information and I’m super excited to start collecting for myself!!
How’s the collection going?
Thanks packman, I’m just getting into this, ordered some herro’s and some of my favourite team cards. The info and enjoy ability of your videos got me to make an account to subscribe!
Awesome video. You did a great job breaking everything down. You definitely answered most of my questions here. I'm glad I subscribed.
I find it insane that you take the time out of your day to help people out with cards! Thats true dedication 👏 🙌. Keep up the good work and keep ripping these packs.
Thanks a lot! It’s my pleasure!
Yeah honestly thanks. It’s pretty helpful
This dude's one of the best at it in the game
Great video, I appreciate the time you put into this for new collectors! Thank you
Thanks! Hopefully it was helpful!
Packman, thank you so much for this video! I greatly appreciate it as I am one of those new people to the hobby. All of this information was awesome for me to learn!
Np thanks for watching!
You're the goat for making this video, thanks so much man. Subscribed, love watching your breaks too
Great video, Packman! Wish I saw this video about 3 months ago, would have definitely helped me out alot and would have saved me some $.
But it was fun, just buying any box and ripping. I think this is a tremendous help to everyone looking to get into the hobby.
Thanks for posting this video, bro!
No problem and thanks a lot!
Thanks for all the information and tips! I just got back into collecting and I’ve been so lost. There is so much going on now compared to when I collected 10 years ago
Np, thanks for watching! Hope you have fun collecting!
Thanks man. Excited to pick up on my childhood hobby that I loved so much.
Hey man that answered a lot of questions that I’ve had about the hobby. I just got back into it after about 20 years of being out of it. So much new stuff and really fun stuff. I like how you covered cleaning the cards. I had so much trouble with Mosaic. They are really fantastic looking but they are filthy coming out of the packs sometimes. So cleaning them scraping the glue off without scratching the card has been irritating but I love those cards. Thanks for doing a tutorial and a very informative video.
Hey thanks a lot! I’m glad I could help! Enjoy the hobby!!
Literally just started, this a perfect... thanks bro🙌🏻
Glad I could help!
This video helped me so much man. I really appreciate you taking the time to make this for us new guys haha
No Problem glad I could help!
Packman can you do a video of cards you would buy now that you think will go way up in price? I’d not it’s ok
Thanks. This helped a lot. Started collecting a month ago. You sir are a solid communicator too. Have a happy new year!
Glad to hear and thanks a lot! Happy new year!
This is my favorite video from you because it taught me the basics of getting into the hobby
This video is very informative, helped me a lot! 😀
Thanks! Glad I could help!
I am not new to collecting and I’ve been watching you for over 2 years now I was just scrolling though your channel and I watched the bit about grading was very helpful.
Thanks! Glad I can help!
Thanks man ! It’s really helpful Video for beginner like me, just like you, I’m a die hard lakers fan, want to collect all the player card from 05-20, love your video and keep going man ! You are the reason Why I start collection, big love !
Thanks a lot! Glad I could help!
Started the hobby last week. I'm glad I found this video.
I totally agree with you that it takes time to learn how everything works in collecting. I started collecting cards in 2017 but didn’t know much about them. I though it was all about autos but realized there’s more to collecting like parallels, mem cards, short prints,etc. I started watching your channel about a year ago, and since then have been able to learn a little more about collecting each video. Now I know a lot about collecting because of you. Thanks!
P.S: Your killin it, 30k subs? Your channel has grown a lot
Thanks a lot! Yea it’s crazy to think back to my days where I knew so little. The growth over time is so much fun tho!
Thank you for this video. Great way to start and know more about the hobby. Hoping for more videos like this .
Np! Glad I can help!
This was great, as an old dog keen to get back into collecting this was very informative 👍 great stuff
Thanks for watching! Glad the vid was helpful!
I used to collect cards back in the day (early 1990's through the early 2000's). We used to just buy a box at Wal-Mart and enjoy the experience. I get it that people get into this for the investment, but looking up what's in the box and all that takes the fun out of it to me. I get it if the box is several hundreds of dollars; back then the boxes were like $20-$40. I got a lot of joy out of those boxes. When things get popular, companies try to make as much money as they can, and that's why we have these crazy cards that are rare - to drive the price up.
Yea these days are crazy. I just like having a good time and collecting but it’s much tougher to do rn
Panini sells most boxes/packs at a reasonable price. The only problem is that if you don't get to Target at 8 AM on Saturday before Dave and Bill (random white guy names), you're stuck either buying 10 card packs, paying double on eBay, or finding a card shop in town where you're still paying 1.2-1.5x retail.
@@SPACESPINACH for the past 10-12 months panini has not sold boxes for a fair price, idk what you have been seeing but it is wrong lmao
@@SPACESPINACH SO TRUE LMAO
This actually helps alot... I've been buying/collecting cards since 2018 prestiege came out, and some of the info here was info I never had so.... thanks
Np! Glad I could help!
Love the video and your channel my guy, just about to get into grading some of my old baseball cards that are in very good condition despite being almost 30 years old and this video definitely helped me understand that process more! Keep up the great work
Thanks a lot! Good luck!
Thanks this helped me out a lot a ton of good information to a guy that’s just getting started.....again!!
Thanks! Glad I could help!
17:53 perfect for me. I needed this. Thank you
Np! Thanks for watching!
Thanks. I was casually into it a few years back and now I’m getting into it a lot more now.
Nice and yeah it’s super run
Learning legit everything to do with card collecting from your channel. Thanks for your channel dude! Im just getting into card collecting myself! Im a father of 3 (9,4.5,3). So I've been really preoccuied in the last few years. However, I am now getting some more free time and really enjoying pulling cards already. I just want to be sure I know what is worth buying and not. Your video's have taught me the most in a short period of time!
I appriciate this videos and the work you put into it
Thanks a lot!
I can’t afford boxes, so I buy individual cards from players I like, so I have a collection for cheap with card I actually want
That’s smart
That’s a good idea ! That’s probably how I will start off
I've been collecting a long time over 30 years but u hit on the button more often than not u are better off just identifying what u want and buy it. I've bought boxes for 250$ m got nothing I've also gotten really good cards on n breaks but I've also spent 30$ on break and got nothing when that 30$ could got me a card or 2 I want
@@jojofreelancer1210 exactly, I’d much rather spend £40 on a Ja mosaic than £140 on a box of mosaic trying to get a Ja.
Where do you buy your cards for cheap
I agree first treat it as a hobby, educate yourself, then look to make money doing this. Thanks for sharing this for beginners like myself!
Np! Glad I could help!
Great 101 intro to collecting sports cards. Thank you for this!
This was really nice. Sports card market is nuts. I was very into it when I was younger but like you said it really matters who the hot guy is even more so than a good player. I’ve recently gotten back into Pokémon cards but sports cards just scare me to death lol like once that guy isn’t hot anymore the card can plummet
Thanks! Yea it can be volatile but usually there’s some time to see which way a player is headed
This guy giving NEWS YOU CAN USE thank you bro
Np! Glad I can help!
Very helpful information I'm starting to collect and hopefully getting my young son involved. Thanks for the info.
I really enjoy your explanation of how to select the right cards, type of cards also the different cards. Excellent definitions of the variation of cards. Thank you very much I really enjoy your explanations.
Yeah love the detailed notes
This is so good! Just getting into collecting sports cards, mostly from watching your videos. Now because of you I’m gonna spend tons of money :p
Question, how do I know when cards are short print?
Thanks! Usually the product info will tell you before hand
“This isn’t a $500 box” oh how the times have changed
😂😭
Cool video ! Thanks for the information! I love basketball and was looking to get into cards . Very helpful :)
Thanks for watching! Glad I could help!
I'm having a real hard time finding a LCS in Houston, great video! I'm looking to get into the hobby and this was very helpful
Hey man, you're really helping me understand this stuff. Thank you.
Np! Glad I can help!
Damn, Pack.. You hit it outta the park with this upload. 7k views under 24hrs, and climbing?! Bravo, Sir! Didn't realize how many newbies the hobby has.
Haha thanks! Yea I’ve talked to thousands of new collectors and they all had so many questions so thought I’d help them all!
It's not only that there are so many newbies but the is the MAN!!!! When your smart enough to give the information people want to know than you nail it, and my guy here hit homeruns.....
Getting back in the hobby. Great video! Plus you’re a grizzlies fan 🐻.
Appreciate this a lot! Thanks for taking the time to help out us rookies!
Super helpful right
I definitely want to get back into the hobby but can’t find boxes for retail. My local Targets and other retailers get cleaned out by scalpers almost immediately after the boxes hit the shelves. It seems like finding boxes for retail nowadays anywhere including LCS’s is a thing of the past
Yea getting stuff for the SRP is pretty much unheard of these days unfortunately
All that wax on the table is such a flex lol.... Love the vids, keep it up!
Haha thanks!
Your channel is my first one to subscribe on TH-cam I love the content and appreciate your dedication.You made my sports card collecting a fun trip.
Thanks a lot! Glad to hear that!
Subbed. I'm new to the game and I've watched about 20 hours of content, and this was the info I've been searching for lol. Ty👊🏾
Np, thanks a lot!
Personally I can’t resist not opening up a sealed box! Yeah you don’t make your money back most of the time. But it sure as hell super funny
It’s tons of fun!
We needed this video
👍🏼😁
I have already started collecting, but these tips are still helpful, and I think that we can all learn from this
Thanks! Glad the vid was helpful!
I used to collect some NHL cards in the early to mid 90's. Been thinking of getting back into it a bit for selling/trading.
Great video! My interest in card collecting recently started. My father in law actually passed down some old baseball cards that I looked through. Something you didn’t address, was what so you typically do with all other base cards. Do you keep them and store them?
Thanks! I usually try to sell base in bulk
Honestly my favorite card TH-camr
Thanks!!!
Awesome video bro. I'm planning on getting back into collecting! Great info
Thanks! Enjoy the hobby!
Hey packman, a room tour showing all your cards would be sick. Don't know if you have extra time for it because of Quarantine. Can make it different parts if you have a lot of stuff.
It’s too messy and there’s not much to show haha
Thank you, that’s very helpful! When did you start collecting cards?
Np! I started 4-5 years ago
@@PackmanCards what box should I buy chronicles, hoops or illusions
@@liamreeves9427 chronicles or illusions
I think a big thing is to have a clear goal of what you’re trying to collect. When I first started a couple of years ago, I was buying Titans from every product and didn’t really feel fulfilled, leading me to end up taking a break. Started back up around 9 months ago, now collecting only Titans from Contenders. Not only is it satisfying, but it saves me money from going after everything. Nowadays, I’m just as excited to find an obscure player’s card that’s SP I do not have as I am buying a present day player’s cracked ice auto.
Nice! Yea I have a pretty specific group of cards I look for usually. Makes it easier
Just made my first live. And it was the best, with your #1 fan, MALIK! 🤣😂
Haha thanks!! That was a fun one!
getting my first cards tomorrow, believe me I’m soooo hyped 🏀 🔥 💯
🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for this! I just got into sports cards as of this week. I have a couple friends and family who watches sports, but only 1 that collects, so my information is really limited.
Np, thanks for watching!
@@PackmanCards just asking, you don't have to answer, but I have a 2020 panini contenders justin herbert rookie of the year, no signature, silver letters, so you think that will be worth anything, as in being in the 100s dollar mark in the future?
Thanks for this video I've been watching your videos for a minute and I just started collecting cards. I learned a lot of good tips thanks again :)
No problem! Glad I could help!
Stopped collecting in 1993. When i was in high school. Starting to get back into it but not sure where to start . This is very helpful. Thank you
Thanks! Glad the vid was helpful!
That cam will be worth a lot of money that kids is very underrated he just had a slow start
I hope they all play well!
I'm new and can only afford retail. I know the room for profit is almost none but I enjoy it still. And you can pull decent stuff honestly.
You def can!
Amazing video thank you so much! Very clear and easy to understand. Thank you!!
Very informative, thank you for all of your insight.
It is a cool hobby I want to get in to this hobby
Definitely do!
I ordered a 2018-19 pinini threads hanger box with 20 cards in it hope I get some cool stuff
SamM the Luka and rookies are what you wanna look for
Good luck!
Good informative content that’s also entertaining, as a newbie in this I’m glad I stumbled upon your channel 🔥
Thanks! Glad the vids are helpful!
Very informative video. My nephew is just starting out and I shared this with him. Thanks.
Thanks! Glad I could help!
Is it bad to buy from like a wallmart? Cause like that's the only place I can go to in person
No Walmart is good if you can find anything
I just started card collecting and this really helped! I was also wondering if you sell some of your cards? Because I’m looking to grow my collection and get better cards
Np problem! Glad I can help! I do sell some stuff
Packman where could I buy/ trade? I only have eBay, snap, and obviously TH-cam
Dude great video ! I’m also a huge grizzlies fan man 🐻 let’s gooo
Great video, great tips! Just started collecting and now realizing how expensive it can but, but it's such a fun thing to do... Really have to control myself lmao.
Thanks! Hope you have fun collecting!
Now we know. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Literally just ordered my first box 2 days ago perfect timing
Chase Delone wtf 😂
Chase Delone rhetorically😂
@@rockydelone3042 bruh your a physco
Nice good luck!
Chase Delone I don’t think they put your mom in packs
Thank you. You we're a huge help today and I learned quite a lot. I've gone into the LCS and most are no help. It like your stepping on toes. Once again. Top drawer. Thank you.
Thanks, glad to hear that!
This newbie has a lot to learn. This video is right on point. Thanks
Yes the video is solid right!
I'm 42. Stopped collecting in 07. Started back up about a year ago. What a joke. Every card is the same except one will be blue one will be pink and so on smh. Decided to just collect the older stuff. Getting Kobe rookies for great prices.
I'm Curious about the grade of that Zion Silver Prizm. Did you get it graded?is it a 10? I got like the same exact centering as your zion. thanks for the reply keep it up!
I haven’t graded it yet but I think it’ll be a 9
Thanks for the information just getting back into this hobby. I needed to see this video.
Np glad I can help!
thank you for this video! Opened my first box yesterday and I can’t wait to start collecting more cards
Np! Enjoy the hobby!
“Purple stars parallel, as you can see it’s purple, and has stars on it”
As straight forward as that is, if I didn’t explain that people would be asking why it’s called that lol
I know 😂
Love your visd
Thanks!!
Thanks for directing me here. Much help!
No problem! Glad I could help!
Awesome video. I've gained more insight on each product for basketball and football. Still enjoy watching you rip wax but this video is informative. Keep it up.
Thanks a lot! Glad I could help!
hey i was wondering where i can get my hands on a deck of prizm cards, do you know where i can get them?
Probably ebay
The Walmart right next to me has the mega boxes for 45 bucks a piece. Might wanna just check places like that and target every now and then.
A lot has happened in 7 months. Virtually no shot at finding retail at Wal-Mart/Target/Meijer anymore. Too many flippers trying to get-rich-quick...……..
Yea shit is a joke
I bought a box of contenders when they had a full self of that an donruss football came back a day later all gone everything
Today at Walmart there was 1 frikin box left... I bought it but I felt bad
It sucks man I checked the local target and the card section was deserted lol
Literally every store around me has NO cards from any sport
