Would be cool to see you buy 5 mystery boxes under a fake name then 5 as Rev and see if they are scamming big time. Would make for an interesting video idea. Enjoying the content have a good one
That Xerneas.... a "Graded" 9.... did you see the centering??!! Wouldn't be surprised if the GC and Myster pack owners were the same people. Unlucky but thanks for sharing!
These would've been fun as a 20-25 buck item, meaning you can't expect much of it. Fun for someone looking for some random slabs, maybe their first one, but this feels like a company that wants to make 25 bucks profit for 20 dollar items.
@SoLiX I disagree, no one is chomping at the bit to buy 90% of those slabs/lightly played cards/chilling reign booster packs at market price. If they didn't throw these in "mystery" packs they'd be sitting on most of this product for years. Most honest sellers would hope to get $20 ea. on this unwanted bulk, maybe even settle for less just to move off of it. Even at 25 would be no go for me. Your just paying market price for other people's undesirables.
I burst into laughs when i saw that graded reverse card, that’s just disrespectful 😂😂 What a disgrace they are scamming people this way, its infuriating. Still nice to see u take the hit with a laugh and prevent it from happening to anyone of us!! 💪🏻
Thanks for biting the bullet and exposing these shitty mysterybox practices, imo these boxes should generally have about the value of the contents with some occasionally have a bit more or less value, not hosing customers with thier extra trash and doubling thier money
Mystery means you don't know what the outcome is but in this case, the people who make those junk mystery packs know exactly what they are doing.... selling their garbage. 🤔🤔
This is so perfect! I was just looking into maybe buying one of these and looking at other peoples TH-cam videos thankfully you uploaded one and you are one of the most trustworthy poketubers out there, thank you!
Sadly most mystery boxes are horrible. But there are a few diamonds in the rough. I did find a good PSA graded mystery box on ebay. It cost $30-$40 but you will at least get around $50 value
I would say it's the opposite of trustworthy. Putting a random 15 value on different cards, based on the cheapest eBay listing in the world is a way to manipulate the market and get sympathy and drama views and support. How both a modern 0.5 dollar card and a ultra 8 dollar card worth 15 graded, especially when the grading itself costs more than 25 per card for most people around the globe?
I'm so sorry for your hit but that was actually so funny, I was laughing my head off most of the time 😂😂 When that Shiftry came up I just lost it, at that point we knew where it was going 😂😂
@@masoudshairzadeh6820 mad money? I can’t imagine they make that much. Also he still has to deal with the reality that people in the real world take his hobby that he loves, and turn it into a product that represents a weak male selling illegitimate products to rip off actual Pokémon fans. So chill. Delete your own comment.
@@masoudshairzadeh6820 yeah they make more than minimum wage for sure. Just like any drop shipper or any other e commerce type job. They do make money. But I’m not sure pokeRev is a bad guy or anything. I wouldn’t say he’s riding on rockets into space, or buying islands or anything like other people in the world atm. He’s not as big as NELK or anything. I mean I get it but I just don’t know where the animosity comes from. If anything I think PokeRev is cool enough to meet in person. But that’s just me. Most of his revenue comes from the content he creates, not the Pokémon cards that he sells.
I’m sorry you got scammed, but I did really enjoy the video. It’s good to expose these scammers especially for newer collectors like myself because I wouldn’t really know. Keep up the great work
These types of custom products are almost ALWAYS a waste to buy to begin with there's no way some person would chuck in a 200% profit card/product/pack in a very cheap product it's mostly just bulk junk or cheaply found junk just to make it sound as enticing as possible its badly worded but you get the idea Interesting watch either way!
In todays day and age.... Anything but boosters with cardboard around em yet... the big boxes with multiple packs / blisters.... should be legit... You just have to assume.... everything else has been weighed and gone through...... Its bs! Just buy single packs folksss! No Im jp you do w.e. you wanna! Sick vid yet again bud!
Yo Rev. Thanks for making videos like this. With a lot of your viewers being younger I think its awesome you use your platform to expose them to the idea that these mystery packs/bundles have a high likelihood to be a scam. Especially with finding that old listing for the farfetch'd. Keep up the good content!
Damn this was painful to watch but I’m glad you do these videos Rev! It’s really helpful for those that are starting out and don’t know any better when looking on EBay, so thank you Rev! Sorry for your losses on this tho I feel your pain.
That was awful! Thanks for showing us how scammy they really are. It's terrible that the best pack out of a sample size of 15 yielded still a negative net value.
That’s right Poke Rev call’em out on their scamming because this is wrong in every way. The over pricing on these mediocre graded cards and packs is ridiculous! We owe you a thank you!
Thanks for taking the hit on this one. I was looking into these just the other day and got cold feet. Luckily I did because 13/15 of those cards should’ve never been graded. The damaged cards are pretty scummy if you ask me lol and of course it’s either Chilling Reign or Battle Styles… like at least throw in a Evolving Skies, Crimson Invasion, or heck even a Steam Siege.
I feel like they have the super rare in stock somewhere, and as people buy them, they refresh the number of packs to keep the odds the same. Meaning, they can legit have the shadowless cards in the mystery set, but the set is updated quarterly to keep quantities up.
I gotta say I had been eye balling these too, and after seeing this video they are brutal. Thanks for taking the hit so we all know these are so rough.
So funny watching you getting a dented card, chilling pain green code booster and a junk slab. The 'shifty' reverse takes the biscuit; must be LOW POP!
Some literal last pack luck to even come close to breaking even 🤣 couldn't stop chuckling throughout that, thanks for taking the hit to show us everything. It just shows me there's potentially deals to be had for graded cards to add to my collection 😍 Love the content Rev, can't wait for the next video 🙌🏻
Thanks for making this video because i never had one graded card before so it was fun too watch you open some hits and some bad and the bad ones were a bit funny
You are being very generous with those $15-20 dollar values you are putting on those crap slabs 😂 I don't think I'd trade a roll of toilet paper for like 70% of the slabs that were shown today.
been watching alot of ur videos man. love the content that u put out and the fact u take all these risks to show how the market rly is. i kno u probably wont see this but what if u did a video from the same company and buy 5-10 as you and then 5-10 as annonymous
Thanks for saving me some money and frustration. That many mystery packs you'd expect a few to at least break even if there were some decent hits out there.
I'd bet they weigh the packs they put in as well. They run a business to double up on anything of not serious value. Good on you for bringing light to this!
I think GMA will be the next PSA 😂I think this guy was like „I will send my bulk to grading“. May he wanted to send them to the bulk trade-in, but was sending them by mistake to the grading“ 😂😂
These companies should be shut down or at the very least forced to be absolutely transparent with what you can pull and your odds. I hope when Rev does these videos, his viewers all flood these companies with negative reviews.
You do a two mystery box purchase. One bought with the well known pokerev name and one with a different email to see how sellers change what they give in each box. I think that would be cool to watch.
Getting back $20 in value kind of makes sense. The company has to buy the packaging, possibly pay to have the graded and they still need to make a profit so maybe they are making $15ish per mystery pack and selling them for $40 and making $15 - 20 profit. Most companies do a X2 mark up whatever various items so the value sucks but makes sense.
Thanks for always looking out for us, I know you take alot of the heat but man you save unfortunate people like me from getting screwed who really can’t afford much as it is.

Yeah but the guy would know Rev’s adress
No I’m sure rev has a P.O. Box not gonna go to his house personally

@@Invictus-Solaris So then you endorse scams because profit?
Completely agree!
@@Invictus-Solaris i dont think you understand what making a profit means.
This is why grading companies are charging so much right now. These companies doing mystery boxes submit literally anything and back everything up.
I would say that you got scammed and probably the packs were weighed too. I would NOT buy from this seller. Thank you Rev for doing this.
I burst into laughs when i saw that graded reverse card, that’s just disrespectful 😂😂 What a disgrace they are scamming people this way, its infuriating. Still nice to see u take the hit with a laugh and prevent it from happening to anyone of us!! 💪🏻

Bro that disappointed face with the reverse Holo shiftry 💀 honestly that’s a slap in the face the fact they got that card graded

@elatedquaid1279 Yall slow?😅 Pretty easy If you have a smart phone... wtf you 2 working with?!😅
I am surprised that the last one was an alt art. All the other cards that are just thrown into the package are commons!
The packs were probably all weighed too. I hope this isn't a giveaway video. 😂 Who am I kidding? I would like to have these cards too.

I love how you do the math of your winnings or losses. Helps most of us stay away from gambling. Thank you.

Based on the pulls from the boosters I would say the packs are definitely weighed as well
Pokerev your the best on TH-cam hands down... like if you agree...!

It’s the scams on eBay that makes honest sellers not be able to sell their product.
This video is so funny! Poke’s face when he pulled the Shiftry reverse will be tattooed in my memory forever.
Dead with "we're getting obliterated, we're getting sent straight to the shadow realm" 🤣🤣🤣
I'm so glad Rev does this. I am constantly looking at mystery boxes trying to figure out if they are worth it or not

It's funny how you test the "competition" in mystery packs and point out the scam while people who order from you get exactly what you promise them 😂
They probably even weighed the booster packs before sending too. Can't believe they've managed to get to series 2. So many people being scammed.

The person in the thumbnail looks like he probably hunted for an shiny dialga for 2000 hours with no sleep, coffee and coke
This is exactly what I always worry about when it comes to "mystery" packs. It doesn't make sense for the guy selling it to knowingly give away money.
You pretty much bought very fancy drink coasters hahaha! That's what I would use those slabs for!!

I keep forgetting how many of these videos you have put up but the only success is getting a super big hit in a pack thanks again rev for all you do ❤
Thanks for the heads up on those. I'm a sucker for some mystery box's but no for pure duds.
Why didn’t they just get the loose cards graded 😂 they are literally more rare/valuable
Someone is making BANK on these 😂 appreciate the transparency here Rev.
Love seeing this, you give away so many things sent to you for the community and you deserve some special things for yourself
And even though these mystery packs a crap it's still awesome to watch you open them. Cheers for taking the hit for us bro.
You should do one using your name and without your name to show anything change in mystery packs.
Saved a lot of people from getting scammed thanks man! ❤️
Mate, that was painful!😂😂 thanks again for a great public service! 😂
