Rudy successfully strips the soul from collecting by treating cardboard like a joyless financial derivative. It is a classic case of over-intellectualizing a speculative bubble to justify blatant gatekeeping.

NO MORE PSA GRADING....UNLESS YOUR RICHAdded:
Folks, welcome back.
My name is Rudy. You're watching Florida Man Chronicles, video number 4,69, Groundhog Day Delorean.
My name is Rudy. Welcome in. Take a seat. Well, I'm glad you asked. I think I will take a seat.
Well, interesting day.
Emails been blown up with hundreds of messages.
We've had more customer service email messages at PCG in the last 24 hours than we've had in months.
Didn't have this on my bingo card.
So unless you've been living under a rock, the news heard around the world today is good old PSA claims to have 10 million cards backlogged.
So now no more cheap services essentially what $1 $150 up to $1,000 a card if you want to get great with PSA moving forward. When's it start? Next week or something.
So, definitely didn't have this on my bingo card.
Everybody's wound up with what's going on.
Um, here's the thing.
We're going to approach this as kind of a Schrodinger's Rudy's testicle kind of thing because we have a couple options here.
PSA is telling the truth and they have 10 million customer cards someplace in storage, check-in queue, whatever. Some reason people have sent them so many cards and they're okay with getting their stuff back in 2027, I guess, 2028, I don't know.
So, um, rumor is on the internet and employees that definitely don't work there is half of those cards are just Pokemon.
You're talking in theory five million Pokemon Chase cards, holo cards, promo cards, whatever cards off the market in Q at PSA supposedly.
Friendly reminder, folks, is an entertainment channel. I don't know what PSA has. I don't talk to anyone who still works there. Um, okay.
So, let's get a couple things over. I was going to make a video today discussing the upcoming One Piece, well, One Piece. I was going to discuss some of the Pokemon stuff and reprints and sets and waves coming. I was going to discuss a new white set, the new flesh and blood set, and I was going to go over the new Magic Marvel superhero stuff going on, some that some distributors are giving allocations. And I want to go over all that, but now the drama of the card grading, panic bubble, whatever you want to call it, is in full force. So, I'm going to be very straightforward before we go back into our normal video. I'm going be very honest with you guys.
If there was ever a time to try premiercardgrading.com, I own 69% of the US entire United States operation. Full disclosure, there's ever a time, all my poke bros out there, all the YouTubers, I know who you are. You know who you are. This is the time if you're watching the video, Express 20. Go to the [ __ ] premiercardgrading.com.
Hit express grading for $50 a card.
Enter in the code at checkout. You can get one to 50 cards for 20 bucks a piece. Seven business day turnaround.
So, I know was that like a week, just over a week turnaround. And then we ship your cards back. So, again, you mail your cards. takes three to five days to get there. We we're in possession for seven, eight business days and then you get your cards heading back to you. If there was ever A TIME IN THE ENTIRE FLIPPING CARD GRADING industry you wanted to give us a chance and you believe that PSA should not have this strangle hold. This is the damn time to try to break the strangle hold of PSA.
the outrage the amount of you all the hundreds of you guys who walked up to me in person in Eclecticon who've emailed me who just look I have thousands of card graded from BSA from 2004 through 2015 I haven't graded in 10 years but folks the amount of you all who've told me the money you've spent the shadiness the grade changing the the whole all these weird things that have been happening on the internet folks this is the time premier mircardgrading.com.
Use the damn code. Send in 10 cards. Try it out. Try it. Do I have a gold? Do I have Hold on. Try try it out. If you get a actual black label, our version is actually a actual 24 karat goldplated.
If all your subgrades are 10, you get a fancy ass box and everything. Yes, we have subgrades. Our labels are metal with a laser that hits them. Austin Powers laser. Okay.
The QR code, you can scan them on the back. Population report. The slabs are like over double the thickness of PSA.
The quality is off the charts. Last month, we broke 30,000 slabs. This month, over the next few weeks, total, I'm hoping we can break 50,000 slabs. If we can move this momentum over the next 3 to 6 months and we can go 50 to 100,000 slabs worldwide, like I don't give a [ __ ] if the reports and the gem ports of this even acknowledge PCG. [ __ ] them. I'm just telling you, you guys should not be paying these prices. $150 a card, $500 a $1,000 a card. This stuff. Oh, wait. Oh, you want cheap grading? You'll get you'll get your cards back next year. This is insane, folks.
This is insane.
I just want to say it. I'm going to pound the internet with it. Everything.
I'm just telling you, if there was ever a time, [ __ ] try it, man. It's I mean, we have the staff. We have eight offices around the world. We have over 30 employees at like Japan alone pumping out orders. We I mean, go to the website. Look at all the offices. We have the again, we're going to run it.
And again, if I think we're going to be behind, I'll make up a message. I'll I'll let you guys know. If we're going to get behind or anything happens, we have the extra staff. We have the extra capability and capacity. We have the machines. We have the multiple locations. I I'm telling you, [ __ ] try it. That's all I'm asking. After you try it, grade cards, make a video, review it. All right. So yeah, that's that's that's that's the news of the day, which was not supposed to be today's video, but I want to get that out in the open. It has been a quite fascinating thing going on.
Okay, so back to what's going on. First Pokemon reprints and restocks.
We are starting to get some more little restock waves of some ME 2 and a half ascended Barney sets. Again, this is my advice to you guys. If there's anything you're looking for when these little waves and things hit the market, buy the dip. I have no plans to take a little restock or a quarter pallet or literally, oh, you get 20 of these. I mean, I'm I'm not going to run a sale for 20 little boxes or something. My advice, support LGs's online. Go to your local store. Go TCG Play or eBay, whatever you want to do. I would recommend if you have it if an item if a specialty box is $80 and it dips to 5060 and distribution cost is I don't know 30 I I would I would go for it if you believe in the product you actually are going to actually hold 5 10 years which get the [ __ ] out of here no one's doing that we all know you're flipping by the time you click the button that's I would use the opportunity to buy dips to whatever you can that's my advice out there same thing one piece we had that uh the red boxes OP 13 14 or The red box is carrying on his will. They did a small reprint. Okay, as promised, the reprint's a joke. Reprint's a joke. I got a case.
Not not of this. The red carrying on.
It's in transit. I got a single case, folks.
The carryon is will one piece set was I mean, it's down like 20 25%.
on the reprint because you get idiotic stores with employees who are paid in Chick-fil-A that literally the manager is like, "What do we got here? Go ahead and put it on the internets. We got to get rid of that yesterday." Anything on the books longer than a day is like a mortgage back security. It's going to go to zero. AAA trunches big short collateralized debt obligation. Anyways, so my advice if you're interested in One Piece, the new set, the yellow boxes, uh, whatever the name is, the set before that, um, the blue ones, then the red ones. God, I'm terrible. I'm not in this. I'm so wound up on this grading thing. And my everything's been blown up in the last It's been insane. So, if you're interested in One Piece, these little drips, these little things, they're tiny windows.
They're tiny opportunities for you guys to get in on sets that you missed out on. That's my advice because this is it. This is literally your last thing. Which brings me to the next thing. Ladies and gentlemen, this week I have been notified from a lot of you. TCG Player is doing their 10% cashback little sale on everything on the website. So, I'm going to tell you exactly what that means. That means to probably tomorrow or Friday, whenever you watch this video, that you're going to have a monster title wave of money hitting tcgplayer.com, which means stores nationwide on Magic, Collector Boxes, Playboxes, Pokemon, One Piece, I don't even know. Weiss sets. I mean, I guess sorcery. Have you seen some of the sorcery box prices? Good lord. Gothic's alltime high. Arththeran Legends is alltime high. Alpha sorcery boxes are hitting alltime high. like across the board everything.
Okay. White sets um star the Star Star Wars. No, we can't talk about that. I mean it's just whenever we have a major TCG player thing, we are going to experience a lot of price swings. And that also means most likely in the next few weeks you're going to see price upticks across the board. People are going to use this tiny little window of opportunity of 24 hours and they're going to buy the [ __ ] out of Magic and Pokemon and One Piece and Flesh and Blood and Weiss and Star Wars Unlimited and Orcana and Gundam and Riftbound and people are the it's I'm warning you all right now. Any form of discount is going to be like a frenzy. Okay? So, this time in next week or the week after, expect everything to be higher in price. That's all. just laying out there. Okay, so that's going on. All right, so um that I just want to say that about One Piece.
Small restocks have hit. They're all [ __ ] joke. If you're into One Piece and sealed cases, sealed products, sealed boxes, this is your little window of opportunity to get the brand new yellow set, the blue set, or the carry on as Will the red boxes because the reprint was so minuscule, it was laughable. Um I I even older boxes OP one through eight or one through nine or whatever. I mean, folks, specialty sets, the EB sets. I mean, the best ofves, the premium sets, even the new uh I I know there's supposed to be a reprint of the women of One Piece thing, the the heroins, her wines. I have heard nothing about that, but from what I'm seeing so far, all these additional waves, all these reprints are so pathetic. I'm telling you right now, I I mean, One Piece is going to have another leg up. I don't know when. I don't know what's going to spark it, but the reprints, the supply is so minuscule and people are still buying them. It is the sealed product. I haven't followed money into singles on one piece. It is going to have another price adjustment.
I'm telling you, I I've been on record so far saying before the end of the year, we have another leg up. But I mean, I guess I'll let that be. I guess it's still what, six months from now.
There's going to be a window, folks.
There's going to be a window. I'm telling you guys, the One Piece thing is going to move. I'm warning you guys right now, man. Okay, next thing. Back to the Pokemon before we hit uh Magic and Flesh and Blood and Weiss and all that. Um, next thing, the magic I've been telling you guys over and over, the play right now with magic is if you have a lot of capital, the collector boxes. Um, the collector boxes, the markets awaken, when markets realize the limited availability. It's taken Wizards five, six years to polish these things, adjust pretty much everything from serialized cards, special guests to supplies to print runs to the ancillary slots. They've they've been tweaking these collector boxes for years. And I'm telling you right now, folks, collector boxes, the market's awake. The market is no longer sleeping on these. Nothing's garbage. I'm waiting for the crash. All this stuff, we are in a new world order of collectibles, folks. I don't know if it's the greatest bubble of all time. I can't predict that [ __ ] I'm just telling you, the market's behavior and the public's behavior on Magic Collector boxes is out of control.
Same thing. I know we have Spider-Man 2.0 with the Marvel set coming. I'm telling you folks, do not underestimate these Marvel or I'm sorry, I guess any collector boxes, even the failed Spider-Man that people still says is the biggest failure ever with the new Marvel superheroes. Same thing. I think they're like 475 on TCG Player right now. I I don't know if that's high or low. I know distribution cost and collector boxes Universe Beyond, it can be up to like $320 down to like 300 if you're buying in bulk. I mean, these things are just I mean, if distribution wholesale cost is in the low 3000s and they're $470 right now in this market, to me that doesn't seem that bad. But of course, everyone's going to say, "Oh, he must be pumping his bags. That's sweet princess." So, that's what's going on there. As far as reprints on play boxes and different things, Wizards again, I don't think we're ever going back anymore. I've told you guys that we're in a new world order of Magic and Hasbro.
Um, Hasbro is happy making sure everything runs out. They're not sitting on inventory and overprinting. Those days are gone. If we ever go back and a market crash, it'll be in the future, but as of right now, this current market cycle does not allow that. And that is not a real thing. I can tell you right now, the Aether Drifts, the Spider-Man's, um, what, the Avatar, the Turtles, I mean, we have four sets that are available right now that are not out of print and the market's acting like they're all worth zero. Blows my mind.
Absolutely blows my mind. I told you all I Rudy positions in these particular cheap play boxes is definitely something that I am running a lot of numbers on right now. That's all I'm saying. Okay, so back to Pokemon real quick.
We still don't have additional waves or products of ME3.
Um, Ascended Barney, we're finally getting some little waves and restocks that are pathetic. It's not going to do anything to the price. Demand is way too high. Doesn't matter how many cards they print. If it's greater or lower, Rudy, they didn't print as many cards as last year. Nobody cares. Nobody cares.
Doesn't matter. They could double it, triple it, make go divide by zero, get a negative impossible number. Nobody cares. The Pokemon products are going to continue. I don't give a [ __ ] what all the highly educated socialists and dumbass and people who don't like to have Taco Bell and Chick-fil-A, the people on the internet usually do not have access to information or they're not educated or they're just being driven by emotions and internet propaganda garbage because that's just cool. You got to be angry. That's what gets the clicks, you know. But I'm telling you right now, booster boxes remain intentionally underprinted. They're intentionally not reprinting the booster boxes and that is not changing. We already told you 10 sets in and [ __ ] is changing. They're going to keep making ancillary products and big box store products and they're going to pump them out as fast as they can. They are intentionally not reprinting booster boxes. I don't care what anyone says. Clip it, make fun of it. Put me on TikTok. Put me on Only Fans and Feedfinder. It is what it is, bro. I mean, you can't crash a market if there's no boxes to crash. It's going to be my damn t-shirt logo. You can't crash I mean, you can't crash something if you're not I mean, what the [ __ ] I mean, so that's that. Uh, do you want to go to uh Weiss or Flesh and Blood? No.
Um, I guess Weiss.
Well, Flesh and Blood has the release before Weiss, so we'll do Okay, so Flesh and Blood has their Omen set coming.
I don't understand Flesh and Blood anymore. I'll be completely honest with you guys. I don't understand the market for it. I don't understand the boxes and the price movements. Flesh and Blood, it comes out. There are pockets on the United States. You can't get enough. It sells out. Stores don't even sell the sealed boxes online anymore. Everyone just opens them and sells the singles.
It doesn't look like anybody buys sealed boxes, but they always sell at release, but then in the future, nobody wants a sealed boxes. It is a flipping confusing ass [ __ ] show. I don't know what's going on with Flesh and Blood. I can't tell.
Everybody, every time we get towards a Flesh and Blood release, like we are, everybody gets excited. People are asking, "Rudy, you're going to run the sale, right?" Yeah, we're going to run the sale, do our thing. Like we always do with Flesh and Blood since the beginning. But the pricing in the secondary market is just I struggle to understand it now. I don't understand it. The sealed boxes will be so cheap at release. Everybody buys them like crazy.
I don't even think half the stores are selling sealed flesh and blood anymore.
Like the stores I know that are getting five cases, four cases, 20 boxes, 60 boxes. Dude, most of them are like, "No, Rudy, I'm not even going to sell a box.
We're going to open them all. Just put the singles in Tesla or just sell singles locally."
Okay. I I I don't understand it. It's a [ __ ] [ __ ] show. Whatever, man. People are excited on the new Flesh and Blood set.
I I guess because I guess a lot of people just go after the singles. I guess the hardcore organized play, hardcore tournament scene, everybody fights for singles. So, every box just gets ripped after that. Nobody cares about sealed boxes. It's super crazy, man. It is what it is. So, yeah, the Flesh and Blood sales coming up. The new Omen set, people are pretty excited about it. There's not very much in the US. Even my supply is 25% lower, I think, again, compared to what was the last set? Compendium of Wraith. So yeah, even my quantity of boxes and cases are lower. Uh I think it's one less pallet.
And um from what I gather, most stores were allocated on the Flesh and Blood Omen set. And from what I gather, the prices again, I think this is normal. So I think what I think store wholesale pricing on this one is 65 a box.
So I think Yeah. So I I think or did they move it to 70 or was that the premium? I can't remember. Something like that. So yeah, I I I guess I'm very curious to see the single card prices because that's really what drives the market of flesh and blood. It's crazy, man. Um I mean, we still get tremendous amount of people who grade their flesh and blood cards at PCG, though. I think we have like 90% of the market share for graded cards for Flesh and Blood. I think we probably have at least 50 to 60% of the market share of graded sorcery cards and probably, you know, again, we're getting tons of Pokemon grading now, but it's definitely nowhere near the PSA. We have so many, but we can't tell you exact numbers, but only pay for our expensive s. I don't I don't understand. I don't know what's going on with that. I'm just It's wild, man. So, um I guess we'll go to the the magic the Marvel superheroes. I want to I want to talk about No, no, the Weiss.
Okay. There are some new white sets coming if you haven't heard by now.
I'm just going to say it. I know I'm going to purposely mispronounce it, but the Nikki girls are coming back. Nikki volume 2. I know it's not pronounced that, but that's how I pronounce it. Um Nikki volume 2 is coming. Not the reprint, the first edition. The It's um I don't know if that's a month or two away. I'm not sure. But that is the big one coming, I think, for later this year. There's some other new white sets that people have some chatter about, but every once in a while, like I said, the Azure Lane certain c certain ones hit really hard. Um, I do expect it to do extraordinarily well just like Nikki 1, Azure Lane one, Azure Lane 2. Um, I expect, you know, I guess a Furine, I mean, golly, those things and even some of the recent ones, the Eminence, golly, some of them have done really good. So, I expect that to continue. Just be aware of that. I just want you guys to say the name and be aware. Nikki Girls, Boob Girls, all that. It's going to be a big deal. Tremendous volume. It's probably going to do well. Blah blah blah.
Nobody's surprised. Again, if you're watching this video and you work at Hasbro corporate or Wizard of the Coast corporate, please, for the love of God, do not ever return to putting women or anything to do with curvy women, long hair, breasts, curves, sexual. Do not do any of that in the world of magic.
Please, for the love of God, the products are already short printed. We can't get enough. Please do not do that because then you will cause more chaos.
We can't get the product as it is.
There's not enough play boxes. I hope Wizards maintains their anti-female thing on women and Magic cards. I hope they maintain that because if they if they ever pivot back to saying, "Hey, maybe we should do that." Look what ah.
No, we should not do that. We cannot get the product as it is. We do not need more demand in a higher leg up and Hasbro making more money, the stock going up. Okay, moving forward. Marvel superheroes underwatered. Everyone thinks it's going to be [ __ ] and everyone still is calling it Spider-Man 2.0. Yes, the next Soul Stone, Mindstone, whatever. As we continue our Infinity Stone journey is not serialized. It has been confirmed by Mark Rosewater, Bottom Water, Cynthia, Philip Morris, Funko Pop, Smoke Williams. Uh, it has been confirmed that there's still approximately 500 made. So, it's the same as being serialized, but they did not physically tell us the number or do it. I believe the rumor from the internet that I'm making up on the spot right now is that the serialization is something to do with Marvel and having that with the cards or something. They don't want I I don't know whatever it is. It's a thing. I don't know. So, people are the stores and pre-order books seems to still be less than what it should be because it's Marvel because again, all everybody cares about is the [ __ ] Hobbit.
All everybody is blowing me up on in magic is Rudy. I'm saving for the Hobbit. Everything is The Hobbit. It's going to be the Lord of the Rings again.
That's the thing right now. It's all The Hobbit. The craze, the demand, the conversation with Magic. I mean, yes, Marvel superheroes in the next few weeks and everything. I get that in the next 30 days, but the obsession is across the board. The Hobbit. Now again, my advice to the general public from a guy who's clearly always leveraged or broke or something that the internet says and something about parents and trust funds and I have private jets and I'm a billionaire and I I I don't know what it is. I'm I would really like a trust fund. That would have made my life a lot easier. Um, for the people who are educated and like to have critical thinking, The Hobbit's going to be successful, but it's going to be expensive at release because there's not going to be enough to go around.
So, because of that, the Hobbit pre-order boxes and different things and collect, I will not have enough collector boxes for patrons, for you guys selling locally, picking up eBay t I am not going to be able to support that. So, I'm telling you all very clearly, if you are friends with a local store, if you have access and you can communicate or lock things in as we get closer, the Hobbit box prices are all over the place. I've seen as low as 5600s. I've seen as high as 7 8 900s.
Nobody knows what it's worth. Everyone's speculating, but just be aware. It is going to be incredibly hot. The prices are going to swing like crazy. On the uptick, everyone's going to be like, "Look at that." On any form of down tick, everyone's going to say, "Oh, it's crashing. There's Hasbro. they get what they deserve. No matter which way it swings, a narrative will lean into that direction. So, please be aware. Yes, it's going to do well. The Hobbit is the hot thing people are waiting for. But, in my opinion, always go in the path of least resistance. Right now, the path of least resistance is the [ __ ] that nobody wants. I'm telling you. I'm telling you.
Um, you can fight for Hobbit boxes at 150,200 for a play box. You can fight for collector boxes at 7,800. That's great. And yes, if you buy a $800 Hobbit collector box, guess what? In 3 to 5 years, it's probably going to be worth a lot more than that, and you're probably going to make money. No one's arguing against that. What I am saying is, you know, even if you bought the Hobbit Playbox at 150, 160, even 200 like these pre-orders are in a couple years, sure, an out of print Hobbit Playbox may go to 3400. That's possible. We're seeing out of print play boxes and draft boxes from Wildsville Drain, $350. Boulders Gate draft boxes 350. These are all $100 boxes. Actually, $70 box or $89 patron boxes. It can happen. But I'm telling you all, just play in a part of the sandbox that everybody will leave you alone. For me, I'm over here playing with Aether Drift, Ninja Turtles, and honestly, I'm looking at Avatar again because everyone treats it like Spider-Man. And I'll be honest with you again, I'm looking at Avatar. I'm looking at Spider-Man. Even the Spider-Man play boxes. Like I'm looking at this stuff and I'm sitting here saying, "Okay, I buy a thousand play boxes of Spider-Man, Avatar, Aether Drift. Put them aside, put them in the corner of the warehouse. Put a I don't know, put a waffle fry box on top of it.
What's Aether Drift play boxes? 100 bucks. Spider-Man turtle boxes. I mean, what? Wholesales? 120. Okay. Get them in bulk. Pay 118 117.
I buy these things and I just sit on them.
What is more attractive? A $200 Hobbit play box, $800 Hobbit collector box, or a $100 Aether Drift box, or $120 Turtles or Spider-Man or Avatar box. It's not about what we like.
It's not about what I'm telling you is a better or worse set. None of that matters.
What I am telling you is riskreward. based on where the market is currently pricing and speculating the item.
Like right now, if you look at the prices of some items, see the problem is when we're when we're so emotionally involved and passionate about this stuff, we blur our vision with the items, the cards, and the sets that we really are attracted to. Okay?
We everybody right now, oh, ascended and Pokemon. Oh, Rudy One Piece. Oh, carrying on, you know, the red box. Oh, Rudy, Rudy, that you everybody is going to be drawn to the thing they like the most.
I'm telling you personally, that is not always the best investment in collection and collector and parking money. Well, Rudy, you shouldn't treat cards as the stock market. That's why Wall Street exists. That's great, princess. Are we going to do a large waffle fry today? Or are we going to do the combo meal? Or what are we going to do here? Are we going to have three roommates? And are we going to just give our money away? What are we going to do here? Rudy, you're bad. You don't do charities and donations on your channel.
That's right. I don't I do not make cash donations. I don't give things away because I understand how charities are run with management costs and most of the money doesn't go to a good cause. So the world on the surface can be viewed skewed and clipped and and you can be treated and viewed a certain way, but understand you have to know the details of everything. That's what I keep saying. Look at the PSA stuff going on.
They're claiming 10 million cards and now we got to turn off the cheap service. We're so behind it's crazy. Um, but we're not behind enough that if you want to pay us1 150 to like a thousand dollars a card, uh, we'll put you we'll grade your cards anyways. Even though even though we have 10 million and we're we're backlogged, you know, but if you're willing to grade a 100 cards and pay 150 a card and you want to give us, you know, 10, 20, 30 grand or 50 grand or 100 grand, you know, cost of, you know, down payments for a house, uh, maybe we can start grading for you. No, dude. It's [ __ ] crazy. I I cannot believe how complacent the market is with this [ __ ] And it's the same thing. The internet loves to find a way to spin and feel a certain way. I'm not here to make you like me.
I'm not here to convince you of anything. We are here to have Are we adults? I think I'm an adult. No, I'm just an idiot. I'm [ __ ] I'm a Timmy. Damn. Shots fired. I'm here to tell you we need to have good conversations. That's the point of this channel. You may like what I say. You may disagree with what I say. That's all great, princess. It doesn't matter. As long as your stepsister, [email protected], keep sending me those lovely pictures.
Alpha Investments [email protected].
The show goes on, folks.
And I'm telling you folks, we have to segregate how we feel versus the business side of things. And that's really tough to do when we have we are all so passionate about our cardboard, right? That's the issue with a lot of things. This market has money flying everywhere. It's a sloshy, moneyfilled, slosh fest of money just churning around. I honestly I would almost say this the card market is almost like the AI thing. Uh I am Microsoft. Uh Nvidia, I'm going to commit I'm going to commit to a billion dollars here. I Hi, I'm Nvidia. I'm going to commit to Tesla 10 billion.
Tesla goes, "Well, I got a I got accounts receivable here for 10 billion.
I'm going to build 50 billion." Well, hi. My name is Rocket building penis man. I've got a $50 million I'm sorry, $50 billion work order from Tesla. So, I'm gonna use this as leverage to get a hundred trillion dollar loan. It's like AI, bro. This card market is is not much different right now. There's a lot of churning and a lot of these people don't have the capital, don't have the money.
They're one paycheck away from falling behind. There's a lot of sloshy [ __ ] The money is just slloshing around everybody. And trust me, in a long enough time frame, the water level will go back to normal. The ships will go back to the proper level and all those pirate ships. Some will sink, some will make it, some will get near the other ships like me, and I will buy out that ship and take over and build a fleet. The market will move on whether you like it, you don't like it, and no matter how you and I feel, we will move forward. The wheel in the sky will turn.
So remember folks on this Pokemon, all this stuff, I'm sorry. You know, $10 packs on Ascended Barney, [ __ ] great deal. It shouldn't even be below $10 a pack. Anyone disagrees, they clearly don't know economics and finance. And honestly, you should probably not drop out of the fourth grade and date your stepsister. I you probably should pay more attention. That's just, you know, again, you can be angry about it, but math is going to math. And water will find the path of least resistance just like money does. And when money sees opportunity and if people are going to scalp and flip and do their thing, that's what people are going to do. I'm not here to attack people. I'm not here to agree or disagree. I'm just telling you this is what I see happening. And I mean, I left my house. I left the basement one time and I went to Eclecticon and literally I could not believe my eyes on this the flipping and the young people and the culture. I mean, it was crazy, man. So, I'm going to wrap this video up here.
Conclusion, folks, coming up next. By the way, how good is that Godzilla doing? I just did set four of Godzilla last week. The patrons. Oh my god. I sold out all of it again. Oh, no. No. I have one case left, I think. Oh my god.
Just unbelievable, man. Isn't that crazy? I mean, just Anyways, so yeah, we have new white sets coming.
There's a new flesh and blood set coming. Pokemon's got the restock waves.
One Piece pretty much has done the weak the restock waves. And like I told you guys, Flesh and Blood, a lot of a lot of money, a lot of flipping, a lot of single cards are made at release. One Piece, a little bit of dip hit the market. If you're into that, this is your time to buy the dip.
Pokemon just I mean I I don't know man I don't buy the dip I guess if if these stores get their little waves and you have some stores near you and then you know same thing with magic folks when it comes to the magic you know Rudy's original playground I'm telling you guys do not underestimate hate this Marvel stuff. I don't care how you feel about Universes Beyond. I know magic isn't like Rudy's vintage magic and I know that. But it doesn't mean it's not good and successful business. I'm telling you folks. I'm telling you folks. Ninja Turtle collector boxes never collapse.
Ninja Turtle Play Boxes. Oh, Rudy, they they dropped like $20. Oh my goodness, folks. There's literally going to be no further reprints of like Spider-Man Play. It came out. They did one reprint wave and they're stuck with it. They came They're It's barely selling as it is. I'm probably the only person saying, "Hey, can I have a pallet of Spider-Man Play?" My distributor's like, "Really?
Hang on a second, bro.
The guy on the phone wants to buy Spider-Man Play. Really? Take his money." Like, it's it's crazy, man. Same thing.
Turtles Play and Aetherdrift. Holy [ __ ] you guys. Aether Drift is an older set.
The boxes are like a hundred bucks and no one's buying it. And I'm just like the Oh god, dude. Like there's so much opportunity, man.
And you know, it's easier to buy the inventory and go after. I told you guys this ending the video.
It's easier to go after and play in the part of the sandbox that everybody leaves you alone. You can get as much as you want. You can take your time. You can kind of plan things out. And that's where some some real wealth can be made.
I think I'm done rambling today. Um, I didn't talk about Gundam or Riftbound, though. I heard the Gundam like the first or second set or something skyrocketed. I heard Riftbound's been doing better, too. Um, we didn't talk about Yu-Gi-Oh either. I heard there was uh there's a new Yu-Gi-Oh set with serialized cards, and I actually heard Yu-Gi-Oh is going to be allocated for the first time ever.
There's some crazy [ __ ] happening this world, man. [ __ ] crazy. Anyways, folks, I'm done.
If there was ever a time, go to the damn website premiercardgrading.com.
We have extra staff, eight locations around the world, whatever country you're in. We have extra machines, extra lasers, everything is in place. We've been waiting for a damn moment like this. And I'm telling you, [ __ ] try it. If you're a YouTuber or business person, message me. Message the company.
will work with you. We have partnership programs with YouTubers, different grading if you're businesses. We have things set up. You can get tax exempt your own private coupon codes for your own business. We have all kinds of [ __ ] This is your time. Express 20 $20.
7 to 10 or I think it's 7 to 8 days. 7 to 10 day turner, whatever it is. It's like seven. Yeah. Get your [ __ ] quick.
It's fast. Okay. And no, you don't need to pay $150 to $1,000 a card. And no, it's not a bulk service where you get your [ __ ] cards back in 2027.
How this is okay and why the market has allowed all of this. Like, let let me end this. I'm I guess I'm going to rant on PSA for a second.
PSA used to be publicly traded on Wall Street under the parent company Collector's Universe. I know this because I had like 10,000 shares in CLCT, Collector's Universe stock for many, many years when I was younger because it paid a huge dividend. If you know, you know. Comment below if you know. Well, Wall Street Money bought out Collector's Universe, which owns PSA and all this [ __ ] Took them private just to raise prices, restructure, and monopolize the [ __ ] And now they bought Beckett and all this [ __ ] And they're monopolizing the market. And they're doing that. And now they're saying, "We're so backed up, we can't take your cards." Well, we can take your cards now. You just have to pay us 150 to over $1,000 a card. Like, how are people okay with this? We cannot take cards. We're backed up like crazy. Oh, wait. You want to pay us a ton of money? Okay, we can take cards again. Like I'm telling you folks, it blows my mind that the market has accepted with open arms what is happening. And again, I'm not going into details. I'm not going to go into attacking this company, but I mean, even employees and graders used to work there. Ask them.
You get how much do you have? I get 10 to 30 seconds to look at a card. I click the number. There's no subgrades. If we're slightly off the variance, we can blame it on different categories. Next car, like bro, we'll try to keep the express 20 code running as long as we can. I don't know if a lot of people are going to try it.
My email is slammed. The company, the premier carding email has been slammed last 24 hours. I don't know how wild it's going to get. um nationwide. Like I said, last month we broke 30,000 slabs. If we break 50,000 in the next 30 days, that's insane. If we go over a 100,000 or anything like that, if it does get crazy, we'll have to pull the uh coupon code down and I'll make a follow-up video because I don't want to promise times if we get too far behind. But we do have extra employees, extra staff, extra machines. We've already built it out, paid for it. it's ready to roll in case we ever have that surge. Um I even know there's a flesh and blood events coming up next few months. I know when we have a huge presence at the flesh and blood um the main tournament worlds and the main thing I think it's in Las Vegas this year. I know we get a ton of customer card drop offs. So those are also going to be dropped off at the different Florida locations and split so that we can turn them around within a week. Um, yeah.
We I there's ever a chance, give us a chance. Pass that. Buy the dip in Pokemon. Buy the dip on the One Piece thing. The Flesh and Blood set. A lot of money to be made at release. People selling singles like crazy. Magic. Don't underestimate the Marvel superheroes.
It's not a Spider-Man 2.0. They're going to tweak it every time just like they do with collector boxes. Uh Weiss Nikki 2 is coming and some other smaller sets are coming. Mark is very strong.
Yu-Gi-Oh products are being allocated on [ __ ] Yu-Gi-Oh. How crazy is that? Um, yeah, Gundam and Riftbound are marching forward. Sorcery, no restocks, no reprints of anything. The only stuff I've had on previous sorcery sales, it's because I bought out from other stores and other collections. There's still no restock on sorcery of any kind. Um, hopefully I get some information on the next sorcery thing. I like I heard it's like an Egyptian set. Oh, dude, I love Middle East Egyptian theme stuff. That'd be [ __ ] awesome. Um, Godspeed everybody. We're in for a crazy year.
That's all I got. Thanks for watching everyone.
