Thanks for the honesty bro! I just started collecting again since base set and did buy a few of these mystery packs for fun. I guess I'll see what I pull. I think at least for people getting back into collecting they will be fun and worth it to fill holes in the collection. But glad I stumbled upon your channel, lots of great vids!
I must have gotten lucky after seeing this. I bought their Tag Edition version after seeing a sale on Facebook. I got some decent pulls and the graded card was a 2016 Japanese Chansey at a 9 and the holo was a reverse magikarp from e-reader dragon.
That doesn't sounds to bad! I'm sure there is some good stuff here and there, I'm more referencing the item as a whole. But then again, it very well could just be extremely bad luck 😂
@@TheCardGewru for sure, I definitely think I got lucky after seeing some videos. I don't think this is the norm. As a business, they're going to need to make money so it makes sense.
I open mystery packs quite a lot for yall, and unfortunately these are consistently full of black star promos and terrible pulls. Just an individual experience, but the consistency of how bad they are compared to other brands is noticable. All in pointing out. I have several vids on great mystery product I fully support.
Glad I dropped by. Thinking of getting into Pokemon cards and thought these might be a good choice instead of MSRP in big box stores. I think this is good for people who don't have a collection but definitely know that you are buying into a controlled experience. I might buy bulk cards just to have something to mess with but other than that, I'll probably buy official sealed product when I find them for a good deal locally.
Eyyyyy. Actually bought a few of these a couple weeks ago when they had some sale on them and I had a free one from past purchases. I’ve bought mystery products from them in the past…never get hits out of packs, get black star promos and Greedent Vmax cards and feel regret. I support your thoughts on these and highly suggest NOT buying these as well. The only chance you have with these is getting a pull from a pack, but even then I have similar luck. I own a mystery box company and if I buy any……I buy Lucky Pulls Packs (which I highly suggest) Appreciate the video! Keep it coming!
I'm glad to know there are a few out there that feel the same. Really sucks to see stuff like that happen, but is what it is I guess 🤷♂️ And thank you!! I will definitely check them out!!
@@TheCardGewru They are pack based so definitely know that going in! You won’t get cards or slabs. Just packs. I’m gonna have to send you one of mine to open too just for fun at some point!
That is actually a really good point to make. I never really thought of that as to why I never get any hits in these packs. Definitely an easy way to do it
Dude those shinys are in good condition what are talking about. Most shinys have the silver showing on the bottom anyways. They are very picky about what cards they buy from people and put in packs. I know because I go there on a regular basis and sell to them myself. Pokecollect is my local pokemon card shop here in Madison, AL and they are all very honest and good people. I can trust you they do not scam or have bad products and definitely do not weigh or send out hitless packs. These guys care so much about the community man it makes me sick hearing how bad they are. Come to Madison, AL and meet them, see how large there store is, customer base is, and the love that they have for everyone.
You can't expect banger pulls all the time. It's hard to get those pulls. Just because you didn't pull an alt doesn't mean you can just bash them so hard. Blame pokemon for the bad pull rates
Shinies do not have extremely worn down edges (and the ones in here were clearly in horrible shape), and pretty much 100% of the packs I buy from them are full of black star promos. So they definitely pack the single cards full of non hitters. Not saying 100% of it is trash, but a large majority of the bulk is unfortunately, at least at face value. Regarding weighing packs, I don't believe they do that. Most of the no pulls was me bitching because I have never gotten an actual hit from them. Which I have cross referenced like experiences with several others. I'm not saying they don't love and care about the community. I'm just saying the mystery packs seem to not carry any value.
I also think they are a good and well trusted shop to buy sealed product from. I just won't buy their mystery product or at least packs again. And there are a large percentage of other content creators that feel the same unfortunately.
People buy mystery packs for the thrill. I mean I had some great luck from other youtubers' mystery products but most of them are sketchy. Remember: there's no mystery about them, the people who sell them know EXACTLY what is going inside the pack. Consider this and if, after knowing that, you still want to push your luck, then by all means..
Definitely think there are some sketchy, but also some really honezt ones. Regardless, it does increase the gambling facot of pull rates. But it is for the fun and some people find it worth it 🤷♂️
I've ordered from them before. Out of the items you have in this video the only one I have bought is the Premium Mystery Pack. You would think for Shiny it would be Shining fates, Hidden fates, shining legends. Oh that's a cool Trainer card! That was harsh!
In all seriousness the seeded numbers on these packs could never be verified, unless one person or group opened every single one. You could put any odds you want on the box, put one of each of the chase packs in the whole lot and just claim bad luck and probability. Nobody could disprove you. Dangerous
Yeah, I mean the packs being weighed or anything like that is highly unlikely, but the chance of pulling a chase pack or decent chase card out of the boxes are highly unlikely as well
Decided to give them a chance. Spent on a 12$ gallery pack. Hoping this store/company is honorable about what they’re advertising. If they have bad intentions, their karma will come.
I bought some of these packs way back in battle styles was out and it was good 4me. But I had a small collection back then. I think now I would not get any that had packs cuz they all kinda poop. By the single cards you want open booster boxes .
Most of the mystery pack sellers do the same. Show you lies on screen then send you bargain bin cards or higher value cards that are damaged. I will never buy these types of packs ever again.
In comparison to other mystery products... these add up to the total you paid for or more. The minimum value is the price of the pack... I think you're reaching bruv... Never had a bad experience. But I also don't expect a shiny mew in every pack. Loose packs are kind of risky always. But accusing them of being liars is kind of not genuine? Idk call the guy and ask...
Like I said in the vid it is really just my experience and to take it half heartidly. Roughly 90% of these packs don't reach value though, and they pack them full of black star promos, cards that are worthless, or cards with damage. I think that alone is not cool. I have probably spent over $500 worth on these products to review and have never once gotten anything of real value. Could just be me, but it is just a low value product when there are other mystery items on the market for considerably better value is all. Not really reaching, just giving a review based off personal experience.
I dont know bro. I feel sorry for your experience but i've hit big pulls from their mystery packs. I would say i have the same experience that you have with poke-collect when I open shinyvert packs. I only get trash with shinyvert packs especially the charizard one.
Yeah it is definitely always a gamble, and some people just always lose 😂 I've just had nothing but black star promos and bad experiences with this company. But doesn'r necessarily mean it's like that for everyone 🤷♂️
@@TheCardGewru well that's the charm of mystery packs. I just stumble upon your content on my feed and im binging your videos rn. Keep it up bro! We need more honest review in YT.
Raw dogged shinies cause me physical pain, that’s a company that don’t give a shit right there. Can’t put a penny sleeve on a 7 dollar card? No respect for the product they sell.
Mystery boxes are just a scam for money grab. It doesn't matter if they are a poketuber. Take rev pack for example: Even if you pull the gold tier, its more then likely to be a light pack anyways so there's no point in people like us that buys to open packs. Only mystery packs I see that is worth the money is danny phantom packs. Because for his mystery pack, you don't expect to get anything that's a hit pack but at the end of the day, you still get your money worth.
That's actually untrue about PokeRev. I pulled a vintage holo out of my Jungle pack I got from him. It is a risk people take for the fun, so you are paying for the experience. It is up to us PokeTubers to take the hit for yall and find which ones are truly scams or not in the end.
@@TheCardGewru I'm not bashing on pokerev or any of these poketubers that have tiers within their mystery packs. I'm just saying that even for gold tiers, they sre more then likely to be light packs compare to it being heavy packs even if you pulled it. But yes you are correct, it is just for the experience.
I live close to their store, go sometimes, and I can say they are completely legit. I’ve got some pretty good stuff from their mystery boxes. Just got a $40 card, $150 if graded, from VStar universe pack that I got from their Japanese mega bundle box.
That's super awesome to hear! I have just bought from them quite a few times and have had the same exact poor experience every time, but that is just my experience! Could just be unlucky, they are mystery packs after all haha
Honestly I did feel the skeptical about pokecollect 1. dont hardly get a hit 2.the booster pack is easy to open kinda made me feel like its reseal 3.felt like they overpriced the etb and the booster boxes way too much I bargain for
Yeah, it is definitely our own experience and others could have had a good one. But it was the consistency of how terrible it was for me, and how much product I had bought and every one of them was absolutely awful 🤷♂️
Yooo let’s gooo!! The long form videos are getting better and better
Thanks bro!!!
Must be reading my mind bro. I was just looking to buy these today. Might reconsider now 😂
I mean they make for good content 🤷♂️ just very obvious they put throw away stuff in there haha
@@TheCardGewru yes yes content comes first! Really does seem like something is up with those packs.
That was just me bitchin 😂 probably isn't, but tbh it is a tad bit sus 😅
Thank you for the vid, was trying to decide if I should try these mystery packs... probably won't now lol
Of course! Never know, may still get lucky, this is just my experience 🤷♂️
Love the vid man looks like not to much luck today😅 Hope it’s not a scam😢
Yeah me too😂😂 definitely a few other big content creators, like PokRev, who aren't a big fan of them like me
Thanks for the honesty bro! I just started collecting again since base set and did buy a few of these mystery packs for fun. I guess I'll see what I pull. I think at least for people getting back into collecting they will be fun and worth it to fill holes in the collection. But glad I stumbled upon your channel, lots of great vids!

As always great video. 👍

Trust me, they Pokecollect opens Booster boxes, once they get the alt art, they side the rest of the packs to put into their mystery packs

thanks man you made me decide not to buy the mystery packs from poke collect.
Some people I've heard have had an okay experience honestly, but I personally, time after time, had the same poor quality. Glad it helped you!
@@TheCardGewrupersonally I liked the packs
Raw dogged shinies cause me physical pain, that’s a company that don’t give a shit right there. Can’t put a penny sleeve on a 7 dollar card? No respect for the product they sell.
Right 😅😂 was super ridiculous they came in that kind of condition
You think they weigh these packs?
Na I really doubt it, never really know, but that was just me complaining about the hits 😂
I’ve never bought from them but I have heard that you don’t really get anything good out of the packs
I have never once gotten something solid, but that is just my personal experience 🤷♂️ As a mass they could be loved, I'm just personally not a fan
Roughly how long did it take to recieve through the mail? Im gonna do it for science. 😅
Probably 1-1.5 weeks! Best of luck!!

Honestly I did feel the skeptical about pokecollect
1. dont hardly get a hit
2.the booster pack is easy to open kinda made me feel like its reseal
3.felt like they overpriced the etb and the booster boxes way too much I bargain for
Yeah, it is definitely our own experience and others could have had a good one. But it was the consistency of how terrible it was for me, and how much product I had bought and every one of them was absolutely awful 🤷♂️
The only mystery pack i trust is pokerev i be getting mad hits sadly its sold out every time
Again what a great video and to be honoust it is sooow good to see a real reaction about a company
Thanks man, will always appreciate your support 🙏😎 And I just had to get it out there 😂
I also feel skeptical about Poke Collect's products. I've ordered 3 full art mystery packs and got 3 shiny falinks full art... I was disappointed.
Glad I'm not the only one 😅 sorry to hear that though
