are you using your real name for the purchases? if they saw ur name they would give you the best stuff to use u for boosting there sales.
The guy isn't stupid...
as big as mystic is on youtube it's bold to assume random scammers would care who they're scamming, bold to assume they would know or care really
Using the same logic, all scammers will run out of business if all of us just change our names to famous pokemon youtubers
They might get his name off like the PayPal account or card he uses if it’s like a company card

For anyone wondering, buying from amazon is a gamble because anyone can buy a product, open it, reseal it, and return it and then it is sold to you.
Oh thank you. I buyed so many boxes there and didnt got scamed once and wondered why so many people said that the got scammed.
And if it's in amazing warehouse they throw same UPCs in the same bin so if a seller is selling counterfeits their items are mixed in the same bin as real cards so amazon is not a great place to buy anything you care about.
Just look for the unreturnable ones. Or check the seller, when its an shop in your country with a website & impressum etc. your safe. But lets be honest, you are never 100% safe buying stuff online...
I wouldn't be sure if people didn't post 1 star reviews on them because they didn't get a hit and try to get their money back. There was a dude at my local card shop that bought a pack and then called the police on the store for "theft" because he didn't get anything good. Well unfortunately for that dude he had a warrant out for his arrest. Pokémon packs is gambling for us nerds. Sometimes it has a nice payout but most of the time it's a bust.
lmfaoo bro what a class a idiot
I bought an etb from a card store near me, the packs were opening weird and i got NOTHING better than an RR. i genuinely think it was repackaged 😔
Idiot has a warrant 😂
The thing is, marketplaces like Amazon feature many different sellers for the same product. Sometimes you can just get unlucky and get a returned product that has been opened already
The sad thing is, there are so many of these mystery products available on Ebay, probably targeting uninformed parents who get these for their kids with good intentions
I’m first
@@kaylinmatacale6232 second

No, the sad thing is people who give 1 star reviews when they don't get good pulls. They're scamming liars.
@@Squidmoto3to be fair both of our comments can be true at the same time
LMFAO!!! THATS MY REVIEW ON AMAZON 😂😂😂😂 what are the chances!
who

@@TheStrawChuguy asked
@TheStrawChuGuy asked
You
The thing with all the stuff you bought (Ebay not withstanding), it's likely a variety of sellers under each listing you bought. So on the odd chance you get the 1 random scammer in the mix that's what is going to lead to that negative review of the repack. The mystery box reviews make sense, those are a scam 99.99999% of the time.
Its not the odd chance you get a scammer in the mix. In reality it's an odd chance you DON'T get a scammer in the mix. Don't kid yourself.
Yup. On Amazon anyone can sell under a legit listing
How in the WORLD do they consider a 2013 card "vintage"??? It literally doesn't meet any standard to be called that lmfao
Yeah that's bogus 😂 I thought to be vintage it has to be like..20 years? I'm not sure but 2013 is surely not
Oof that last one 😂 it also said ‘free’ on those packages, even though you paid 80 bucks for it lmao
Yeah for real the people tried to rely on the presentation but it is still crap
“My son used his allowance to buy these” hits HAAAARRRRDDD man
Starting to think that these reviews are still legit and that they got scammed because maybe these companies will sell Two legitimate products and one illegitimate product just to make a profit
Those two blister evolving skies are from “the game capital” they’re extremely honest and just a bunch of nerdy guys that are really big rule followers and could be considered socially awkward. They’re legit. I love them and have purchased many Pokemon sealed items from them. They’re also very transparent if something isn’t going to be pretty enough for sealed collection like “may have cosmetic damage, let us know if for sealed collection and we will do best to find most presentable one” will be written in description of some of their vintage sealed product.
Evolutions was crazy. I remember pulling charizard non stop and now he sells for over 100 bucks a piece
Used to open a lot of evo, never got the base set Charizard, but i did pull the full art and still have it
@@GuanlongX lucky I sold out for Dragonball super TCG smh
4:28
My theory on the lots like those is a way for online stores to get rid of their bulk that’s worthless to sell individually
It's a lot easier than putting each individual card on tcgplayer that's for sure
@@GuanlongX yah, plus theres little demand fo those
@@mindblown9 the only reason i've ever wanted bulk is to either complete a set or make a deck
but if it's not a big tournament i can just print proxies (i've done this so I wouldn't have to spend money on shipping for a dumb deck i wanted to play in a small local
Mystery boxes will never have the value in it that you paid for… how else would they make money and profit.
Not never. They make money and profit by making a few good ones and a ton of bad ones.
I mean sometimes its hard to sell it for its "market value" if you have lots. Especially in Japan you often actually get good mystery boxes. Mandrake had some crazy ones thats sometimes was worth more than dubble the price when "maxmofo" bought them.
I got a jungle box last month off of a eBay 125$ mystery box , I bought about 12 though I also got 2 151 premium collection boxes. Some people are POS I guess there's still some legit though
Man that ETb was defs rigged, you had an energy at the front of the second pack
bro they had the audacity to put trick or trade and mcdonalds packs in the fat pack
The absolute audacity 😂🤦♂️
9:52 I’m not all to familiar with XY evolutions but is it normal for one card to be Japanese
Yea it is ❤
Yeah, it's supposed to look like that for that specific secret rare
Do the people who think the mystery boxes are a scam not think regular packs are a scam? You're literally paying $5+ for a pack at the store to get an average of like $0.50 worth of cards printed on $0.01 of cardboard. It's all a "scam" if you're trying to get monetary value out of it. That's why all the money is in in keeping sealed packs.
Only time it wasn't a scam was when I somehow got a $40 card in one of those dollar general packs that only have 4 cards in them 😭😭
it's literally gacha where you can only spend real life money, but at least that means resale is a thing, so I can get pretty ones that aren't super rare for cheap at stores
It's a form of gambling, just with pretty pictures
@@Leedrian Everything is gambling with that logic. Buying apples is gambling because you could get an rotten one.
It's because most other TH-camrs create drama by showing below lowest ever prices of items on screen for sympathy views -subs, creating the idea that mystery boxes have to provide financial return or even profit
The exegutor was japanese in an English etb
it's a secret card, that both in japanese and the language of the booster, i have it in french, it's pretty fun
That last one just hurt...
he loved it so... ridiculous pokemon youtuber
Fleece king must've sold the last bundle cuz god damn that was a fleece job if I've ever seen it!
>waste $80+ on a "box"
>doesnt even make a fraction of what he spent
BuT iT wAs FuN!!1!
The absolute state of a poketuber
being constantly negative doesn’t sell on youtube anymore bud
Yeah, because thats what you do when you get pokemon cards. I bought a crown zenith tin for 30 yesterday and got around 15 bucks of cards. But that 15 extra dollars I spent brought me immense joy. No need to do this for money.
Yikes that evolutions etb had 3 packs with beedrill
I am sorry if it sound a bit stupid but I just want to tell you that I wouldn’t put ‘Pokémon Products’ in a Title Name if in the video only appears Pokémon Cards and nothing more. ‘Pokémon Products’ for me is everything that exists that is Pokemon included, like a Pokémon teddy, games, toys,…. Anyway nice video😊
I bought Pokémon cards from a 1 star place and they were legit booster box and opened 6 packs and got 6 hits worth $200
Epic thanks for saving me $$
Ehat people fail to remember is that Amazon accepts nearly anything as a return. Most of these cards were likely bought by people, sealed back what they didn't want, and returned for the next person to buy.
NAH THE MCDONALDS PACK IS CRAZY
This video kinda terrible cause you have multiple sellers on the same listings so it’s probably one bad seller scamming not everyone on the listing
Boycott amazon
They were resealed.Look at the wrinkling on the back of that tack when you first took it out of the box.
That is from heating it up to reseal it with probably a hair straightener.
21:42 out of context scene
Couple years ago when I started seriously collecting I fell for the mystery PSA card on Amazon and got a non holo cyndaquil. Normally I’d be mad but I have a tattoo of the same guy so I took it as a personal win
Couple years back I myself got a mystery slab, paid I wanna say 30 or 40..can't remember. But I got a basic V psa 9 which is essentially worthless. Took me getting scammed to realize that these people do it on purpose. Sending useless cards in for grading just to advertise it as a mystery which draws people in. Say it costs 20 to grade, they sell it for 40 with the "mystery" tag and get away with it
Big black mark on the XY Evo box, could have been resealed with weighted packs. I never had a box with dirt on before.
A lot of people when they dont get many hits just assume its reseled because they see people posting mega pulls online all the time and leave bad reviews
he said "dedeadenaynay ex"
probably most of the reviews are made by people who got bad luck in pulls and wanted a refund, i would never open an online pokemon store due to the insane ammount of shitty people doing this
I’m almost certain the Match Battle pack in the God Fat Pack (20:51) is from McDonald’s😭😭
It absolutely is, I work there and we have the same boosters + it’s written in the White rectangle in the back of the booster
@Mystic rips I like boxes for some reason can I have the x and y etb box
Day three of asking mystic for a random pack to unbox
Why is he saying dededenne, it's dedenne
I feel like a lot of people start calling the product a scam if they don't get a hit, just really high expectations.
Some of these are obviously not scams. Cherry-picking a single 1-star review on a product listing with above 4-star average reviews? Cringe
It's a marketplace though, with many different people selling the same products. Experiences are bound to be variable. And on Amazon you can choose not to buy from somebody with a bad reputation. Still consistently overpriced though.
I can’t believe you unironically ended a paragraph with the word “cringe”
Found the seller
This is what a Scammer would say lmao
I never order from that I go to card shop or Walmart Amazon
The packs where sellers just sell bulk can be useful. If you're looking for hits, move on, but if you're like me who's just starting and looking to fill out some sets, then they're worth it. My primary focus is Twilight Masquerade, but anything for another set is worth getting. My goal is to complete a Master Set of Twilight Masquerade, by getting every card in every version of the card. I am considering getting an ETB mainly for something to store my bulk in.
see if you can find one of the cardboard narrow boxes card stores use for bulk before getting an etb just for storage. I did the sake thing and ended up with about four etbs full of cards when I could've just had one or two of the bulk boxes
2:04 lady outta be ashamed of herself using her sons allowance to buy herself pokemon cards 😂
Wasnt for herself mate
@@mrilse123 I know it jus sounds funny the way they said it 😂
Good thinking, pay the scammers money so they can keep scamming…. Genius
i bought that mystery graded card the exact same one and i got a 1998 psa 9 japanese gust of wind card thats worth $200! the first one you bought
4.03 am i the only one trying to chan the qr
I trusted an ebay seller that promised a Glitter & Glamours Sailor Jupiter. (I'm not a card collector.) It was listed no box. I display them out of the box, so that didn't bother me. What I got though... a poorly molded knockoff with a bad face paint job. Had no problem returning it, but I was so mad! Left a bad review and spent a little more (still on ebay) for a boxed one. Learned my lesson.
Edit: Misspellings
When you next do one of these can you put the price of the cards you get to see if you make your money back
The lesson here kids, don't buy mystery boxes.
Gj supporting scammers....
One hour gang
👇
Going through the effort to make a convincible reseal to make $20 really isn't worth it. Either people will reseal old and expensive packs/products. Or they will just send you a completely obvious scam. There won't really be an inbetween.
First and w vid
20:47 I believe match battle packs are packs you normally get from Mcdonalds
It’s just all cardboard??? The title led me to believe it would be a variety of products, but it’s just playing card garbage.
The money's in the trading cards, why would you think it'd be any different?
@@Chowy_Xo Pokémon has just about every type of product, from cereal, toothpaste, bedding, dolls, clothes, electronics, adult toys, bounce castles, keychains, etc… when it says products, why on earth would I assume the video would be limited to 1 type, and the boring, you know exactly what you are getting type at that.
@@Ratsos12 because they're in the thumbnail?
@@Chowy_Xo “I tested 1 star pokemon product reviews.” This is the title. Sure, a $5 mystery pack could be one of them. The title wasn’t, “ I tested 1 star mystery Pokémon trading card game box Pokémon card reviews”
If your argument is that it’s more profitable to make it about cards, then the creator messed up stating it was about Pokémon products and not specifying cards.
$180 for an evolution ETB is absolutely WILD!
Do more videos
Excellent video 🤓
Heres the issue with these reviews, these companies/ third party sellers are possibly selling back refunded items that seem unopened/tampered with yet the original buyer had open, take out any rares, put back commons, and sealed them back up and refund them
I want that evee so bad
Great vid, lol i was gonna buy all those products but I'ma watch your vid first
You can tell this man doesn’t no much about pokemon cards. He is trying tho. Haven’t watched a video in awhile cause of how bad his knowledge of the tcg was. But he has gotten better. I prefer your Pokemon Go content
Hi Mystic Rips. Im not sure but is there anyway, you are selling that poochyena? He is my favorite pokemon, just got back into it a little during my depression. anyway i heard u talk about an online shop. i can check that out aswell. Have a nice day :)
Love the vids btw, i forget to like all of them im not really that guy. But i liked this one ;)
Kind regards.
Lau
EDIT: resealing boxes is NOT hard. People will weigh the packs and open the ones that are good then combine a few packs back into it and seal it. They don't need to risk opening the individual packs they don't think have anything and impossible to detect. You can get a shrink wrap machine for pretty much nothing.
I have a question, Are the scan cards that come with packs supposed to match what you opened irl in the game? I had maybe half match PERFECTLY card for card then I'd notice the ones that DIDN'T match had much rarer cards. I opened about 50 packs and didn't get anything all that rare. This was scarlet and violet set so from what I understand it isn't worth much so maybe thats why but I wonder if this is a way to catch fraud? if it isn't, they could totally do that!
I sometimes wonder if the sellers of these 'mystery scams' see these type of videos and if they'll feel guilty afterwards ? Probably not though.
First video I've seen from you, and this was fun. Also wanna thanks Mr. Algorithm, this was a good suggestion! \o/
I’ve had okay pulls from hidden fates but this was when it was first released, now that pokemon is hot there are more scammers weighing packs and doing subpar jobs resealing that a seasoned seller can spot easily.
I'm disappointed that you did a cutaway to saying, "Well, let's see!" for *every single item,* but didn't do it before opening *each, individual pack.*
"Is this pack going to have a Charizard? Let's take a look!"
"Is _this_ pack going to have a Charizard? It could happen! Let's find out!"
The problem is also that many resealed packages come from customers trying to defraud the seller and then they end up being passed on to the next customer without the item being inspected again. This is how Amazon works, the retailer himself usually doesn't have much to do with the products he sells. For most retailers, Amazon takes care of this themselves; they take care of storage, shipping and returns.
Honestly I won't be surprised if some of the 1-star reviews are just from people who didn't get anything good from the packs. Opening packs is essentially gambling and no one is guaranteed to win. Buying packs from stores, online or wherever you're gonna have to assume the packs may just be duds. Sure everyone wants to be that lucky person to get that high value card to which some may turn around and resell them but that's like thinking everyone wins at the casino. Are there winners? Yes. Are there a hell of a lot more losers? Absolutely. Difference being if someone really wants a card they can just spend the money and buy the single than chase after it in packs.
Lmao the match battle pack is from McDonald’s I believe. They had packs with cute spinny things and cardboard coins.
tldr: you won't get a comparable price to cost when you are buying cards, even regular packs.
Your average pack is probably a crap RoI at retail and at resell. Your odds of getting lucky however may vary. Honest resllers probably have packs worth more than or are comparable to the actual cost of the cards. Its a balancing act. Give too much and you make nothing, take too much and you get nothing, because buying blisters would be the better option.
Why would it be so unlikely that a customer would in fact be the scammer, when not getting anything good they claim they were scammed for a refund?
So i would get being wary of resealed items if you doing this for profit,But man my kids and i just wanna get one of every pokemon so those 50-100 packs cards are great
all i learned is...
instead of playing the game
people go "i purchased this for X amount, and recovered only x amount, not worth it"
dude... you ar eliterally gambling and expect to win? what?
That last mystery box, great experience opening it, but the results were terribad valuewise
I’m a big fan of blazing cards. They have 3 tiers of mystery slabs. The flaming is the lowest one (and yes usually the worst deal), however they are very up front on their stream claiming it’s around the price of grading a card. You’re paying for a card in a slab. I’ve seen people pull 5$ from it and seen 50$ cards in it. Most fall in the 10-25 range. Their higher tier mystery slabs are much better. They recently had a 2400$ poncho-pika in their premier mystery slab (Blazing - $250 cost with a floor of roughly 125$) And yes, someone pulled it on stream. My point is the flaming slab isn’t an accurate representation of Blazing cards and they are not a scam at all. Just wanted to throw that out there
Okay how Amazon works is that there are sold by Amazon then there is the marketplace seller which can get the buy box the buy boxes in most cases is not always Amazon themselves they're probably bought it from a unknown seller who was actually a scammer the front reviews are for the heading not for the individual sellers if he was going to do reviews you should have clicked on the seller's name he was buying it from and in most cases they get away with it because they just send it to Amazon themselves which is called a filament by Amazon
I was the one that had the blazing graded card review. I'm watching the video and got to that part and I'm like wait I bought this and was ripped off. Sure enough my review popped up lol 🤣.
"is this box legit" well you just ran through the packaging without even inspecting it to show people what they should be checking for lol. Like, yeah you are gonna go through everything, but isnt the point to show people what to be wary of and look for in terms of quality?
this video is clickbait it says Pokémon Product Reviews but only thing he buys is pokemon cards, this is reselling pokemon listign reveiw not you buying Pokémon Products with one star
Honestly this feels like a really low quality TH-cam video for card openings. I have no idea why you would mention the value of anything if your not going to show it. That's a pretty common thing people do. I'm not expecting for you to know it at that moment but at least edit it in.
It’s not difficult pulling the eevee in a JP box. Super easy! That’s why the JP art rares aren’t worth anything.
so basically you getting ripped off by pokemon, but you only getting mad at civilans. interesting. sounds like stockholm syndrome
Hello, I really like watching you, I am from Ukraine, it is a pity that in my homeland there is no such content. I would like Pokemon to be widespread here
second hand packs loose like that could def be weighted, depending on the seller, though, can't they ?
Why are you doing an “is it a scam video” but not comparing the price you paid to the values you got and saying whether it was luck or a scam. Makes no sense.
The last box was criminal.
Crap wrapped in gold tin foil is still crap 💩 😂. That was ROUGH
Woooo im in a mystic rips video! Sadly that mystery box i bought as a birthday present to myself 😂 hopefully this helps others not get scammed!
I might not be in the know but was that exeggutor card supposed to be Japanese? The rest of the cards were English.
To be fair on the last one tho if you bought packs at target for $80 you aren’t getting even close to what was in there. Slim chance you do.
its been a while since ive been into pokemon cards and was just wondering why it looks like there is a super small and a super large pack at the bottom left of the screen at 28:40 and if you know the names of them that would be nice
N?!? N POKÉMON?? i’ve been wanting that card SO BAD😭😭
Buying any resealed product is a scam. Yes, even from that youtuber you thought was cool.
spent 5$ pull a 40$+ card : not scam
spend 40$ didnt pull shit : scam
this reviews be like
Ive bought japanese boosters from Amazon and they were legit
Just dont buy thru walmart. You will deff get scammed there..
