As someone who uses eBay regularly, let me explain something: He’s spot on with current prices but… No matter what you COULD sell individual items for, the market is so flooded that no one WANTS those items right now. It’s all about the celebrations cards. That’s it. You almost couldn’t give away those dice, sleeves, coins, extra copies etc. Maybe a year from now but even then idk.
Thank you for bringing reality into the conversation.
Hahaha i managed to sell the boxes and everything but. I sold em for below market price but heyy atleast the items gets sold
Yep, everything outside of packs and promos are hard to sell, just look at all the non-card items on Pokemon Center; just about all of them are in stock and the only way they can probably get rid of that inventory is if they ship out some “Special Delivery” promo cards with them or discount them by 70%. Pokemon Company is learning that despite of collectors wanting their cards, their brand as a whole is 💩 and generally undesirable. Having said that it wouldn’t surprise me if just the packs and promos are often worth more than then sealed product. That’s because some people only want promo and some only want packs to open; buying the whole thing and selling off what they don’t want is too much work. So if you’re willing to sell things separately to meet their needs, you can put a slight premium on things separately and come out ahead. I opened a Shining Legends Super Premium box for the shining Lugia promo in 2018-2019, sold the other promos, the packs, and playmat/sleeves/figurine/etc and almost got the Lugia promo I wanted for free. But I suspect this only applies to things still in-print and easily obtainable. Long term sealed products will be worth more than its contents as there will be less of them.
People forget that eBay takes like 20 percent profit too plus shipping and package fees
It's like bitcoin is just a card board with a value put on it by some people. At least MTG cards are expensive but is playable. But these cards cant even be played. Most of this cards are just for nostalgia. So what's the point of buying it?
The love for Pokémon can’t be value in dollar bills. It’s all about the experience and the great people you meet. Keep up the good work Poke’ Rev
Agreed
💯 i love chatting with my viewers and sharing the openings it's a good feeling🤘😎
True. In a Pokemon fangame named Pokemon Wilds I am looking for shiny Charizard. No hack works on this game. The probability of encountering one from an egg is 1/256, way more than in normal games, but still extremely difficult. When I find it I will build its own domain, like on a separate savanna island.
Cringe
I feel like if you're going to sell boxes waiting as many years as possible and evaluating the market to determine open or not is the best way but the long game too! I just like collecting and building. I just love something I enjoyed much of my life is so fun for all generations. Pokemon games, apps, tcg, I do it all!
My favorite Celebrations card is actually the Dark Gyarados. Brings back some fun memories of collecting when I was little. Wish I had the for-site back then to hang on to my collection. Keep being awesome and love your content!
*forsight
Are the giveaways real?
My favorite cards from this set are Gardevoir & Mew ex. The older ex cards have always been my favorite because the silver borders and the old art styles complement each other so well
Oddly enough my favorite card is the donphan prime. It’s not the most valuable card in the set but I’ve always loved the Phanpy/Donphan line and it’s so nice to see them getting love recently. I also really like the art on the base mew!!
Donphan is awesome! Very underrated.
I’m glad celebrations is here because it allows people to get cards they never would have before. Like all the people getting classic subset cards is so much fun.
There's something about opening celebrations for me that brings back so much nostalgia and good memories of being a kid and getting packs for Christmas and my dad bidding on lots on ebay for us. For me it isn't even about making my money back, but just the pure enjoyment of opening packs. Dont get me wrong who doesn't love pulling a hit but I have a hard time separating with the cards
“If we pull like a chonkachu rainbow it’s just gonna throw this thing completely off.” I actually had this EXACT thing happen with my Celebrations ETB. Had no idea what to do when I saw it because I couldn’t believe the single Vivid pack had the best card from the set in it.
Gay pikachu
I pulled oranguru sr from it
Got a blazekin alt out of my figure box... this is the issue though with the hobby. Trying to break this shit down. If you actually price everything to= the retail price then you realize how much people are getting ripped off
@@TreYay83 I bought one of these thinking I could make a profit. I'm SOO screwed!
wave of nostalgia pulling a charizard for the first time in 20 years
I also got the charizard out of my 1 and only box, absolutely delighted 😍
So true
Same! First time i actually pulled a base set zard never opened enough packs back in 99
Awesome ETB', I'm hooked already
I screamed like a little kid when I pulled mine on stream 😆
Celebrations totally brought me back into collecting cards again and totally a trip down memory lane
The professors research is too cool. The hand coming out of the picture and scribbling on the background is sick. I also love the venesaur reprint because it makes me feel like I own a real base set one lol
Actually pulled that along with flying Pika vmax. I was pretty stoked.
I really like the old school trainer cards! They were my fav way back when, too. Oh, and Rockets Zapdos! That holo pattern is amazing.
The shinning magikarp is definitely my favorite. The colors & the shiny specks pattern cheer me up everytime I look at it 😊
Card prices have dropped significantly since this was posted
@@no.9266 what country do you live in lol
Those who bought celebrations thinking an investment is holding cards for a month, know nothing about pokemon. Hold them. Wait and see what some of these 25th logo cards are going to be worth down the line
So true! Most expensive card in the set is $65. People actually think this set will be expensive in 20 years but lol god no. When you have 100s of thousands of people keeping sealed celebrations product its not going to be rare at all. So it wont hold much value at all. The zard will be a $200 card (maximum) in 20 years
@@xdraconicgaming5204 lol the last few RAW zards have sold for 80 bucks on a set that just released lol. Psa 10’s are up in the 400-500 range… So idk what you’re talking about. Gold star greninja’s are going for 400 as well. Its a freaking promo card that comes in every etb. Graded cards will always hold value.
@@christiancardona6956 we are talking raw cards and tcg player has plenty of zard sales for $60 to $70. And the greninja is a $3 card all day long raw. I know exactly what im talking about. Graded cards will always hold value…. But not when the pop reports are crazy high.
I pulled a charizard out of a darkness ablaze pack in a celebrations the other day. I was SO happy. I love this set. Idc how repetitive it can be. You definitely let out the secret that the pull rates are so good 😂
Me 2 man 🤣👍
The one thing I like about this guy is that he hardly does the “card trick” jumps straight to the point. Most of the time at least 💯
Celebrations is like a trip down memory lane 🤩
Hi Aj love your shorts
People like you are ruining Pokemon
@@Cillian-wwweeee Scalpers..:(
@@safouraaghighi7749 I agree but people like this are using Pokémon as a investment like bitcoin while people like me who actually play the tcg can't by products anymore for RRP so I can't build the decks I want anymore for a price that I am comfortable spending.
Thats the point
I love the Dark Gyarados and Rocket's Zapdos, they're up there as my favourites. BUT the Cleffa is such a cute card too!!
I haven't bought packs in literally years. Last night I came across quite a lot of cards in stock at Walmart so I grabbed a couple tins. 1st pack in the tin was vivid voltage. Opened it up, did the card trick, went through it, and I pulled the rainbow rare vmax pikachu... 1st pack in years and I literally pulled the best card in the set in the 1st pack I opened. I was so hyped
It’s been very tough for me to open other sets after celebrations. It has great pull rates with fun cards!
Umbreon gold star is by far my most favorite card in the set! Keep up the work on putting out great content for the community! Good luck all!🤞🤞🤞
Love this pokerev I watch u everyday I’m so grateful🎉🎉
Like you know ANYTHING about Pokémon
Dude I just subscribed to your channel! Thanks so much for doing this video man! My favorite card from this set is Venusaur for some reason it just has the most original look and feel for me. Thanks again!
The Gold Shiny Mew looks amazing when you physically have it! Great stuff Rev, those numbers for both the regular ETB and the PC ETB make both of them very profitable
Way to spoil the episode dude! (This is just a joke)
@@Justabaker101 Haha I wasn't talking about his! I was talking about it in general
Pikachu has always been my favourite! The friendship with Ash is priceless
Agreed! That’s an inseparable relationship 🦾
My second day into my pokemon adventure, trying to learn the ends and outs. Feeling overwhelmed with all that needs to be learned but I am enjoying your videos.
This was a good informative video. I knew it was a better deal to buy the etb over loose packs but this clarifies.
Favorite card from celebrations has to be that shining magikarp. I collect every common magikarp for fun so the shiny boy would be awesome to add to the collection lol
Favorite card from Celebrations is the Rocket’s Zapdos. Still haven’t pulled one yet though!
“Sum of content is worth more than itself” has always been true for in-print stuff. I remember opening a Shining Legends Super Premium box back in 2018-2019 because I wanted a mint Shining Lugia promo that came with it. Sold the other 3 promos/10 packs/sleeves/mat/etc. and almost got the Shining Lugia for free. Some people only want the promos, some only want the packs, and some wants the rest of the stuff inside (coins, pins, sleeves, dice, mat, etc). None of these people want the whole thing, and selling off what they don’t want like I did is too much hassle. Hence if you’re willing to do the work and sell things separately, you can put them individually at a slight premium and still have interested buyers. Now this is only short term, long term the sealed products will probably be worth a lot more than the sum of its contents as there will be less and less of it.
hey i just subscribed! i just found your channel yesterday and have been obsessed ever since haha. probably watched like 10 videos at least!
Full art professor’s research is my favorite card in celebrations, OG Oak ftw!
Charizard is definitely my favorite. Wasn't ever able to pull it as a kid so this is super awesome.
I screamed like a little kid when I pulled mine lol 😆
I let my girlfriend open a few packs and she ended up pulling the Charizard lmao
@@redredmon8833 bruuhhhh..... lol
@@redredmon8833 That must’ve been such an awesome feeling! I’m sitting on a box and waiting to open it on my channel as well🦾
I did
Love how ETB’s are $110 in Australia
My favorite card has to be the shining magikarp, and the rockets Zapdos 😎🤘🏼🤘🏼 Ps: I’m the guy that wrote to you on eBay 😂 I was stoked that it was actually THE poke Rev. Big fan man. Keep up the great content brother🙏🏼🎊🎉
I love how they made the base set Pikachu into a full art! Love the card art.
It's the original artist too
@@travisnienhaus3360 that’s sick
Love this set! pulled Charizard but having a hard time pulling Golden Mew 🙂
I got the mew need the Zard
I got both
Man that’s awesome! I can’t seem to get any Celebrations anywhere. It’s all sold out and I hate people overcharging for personal gain whilst people with a true love and passion for Pokémon! Regardless, thank you for everything that you do Pokerev!
Great content and thank you for explaining the breakdown of the pricing of all the items.
I've had such a hard time trying to find any celebrations. It has been insanity trying to find them in stores around me. I have to say trying to get a charizard is my goal now
I had the same issue for a while. What I did is Google searched for game stores and drove around to smaller independent stores. You may be surprised what great little places are out there stocking the good stuff! Anyway best of luck to you!
#goals
lol it’s because of fake fans like PokeRev buying up all the stock before real fans and children can get any
Got lucky and pulled the M Rayquaza in my second pack! Easily my favorite.
Got charizard on my second pack as well!
Fees on eBay are about 11% so it’s about a $50 profit. That’s actual pretty crazy I was thinking about it as I was opening my 2 ETBs today. I got a lot of good cards and an umbreon star so I was happy I opened them!
My fave card from celebrations is Rocket’s Zapdos - just such a beautiful card ❤️
My favorite card from from the Celebrations pack is the old school Blastoise with the extra shine compared to the original. Love it! I hope I pull one soon!
Dat shining magikarp tho
Haydunn!!
IKR ITS BEAUTIFUL!!!
I got it on my first 25th celebration pack lol
I pulled one didn't think much of it at first.
First dark Sylveon box when I pulled a Shining Magikarp I knew I went into profit, decided to open my first etb and pulled a zard 🤤 double profit it was a good day especially steamed live on instagram 😄⭐️
I only managed to get my hands on 2 celebrations packs, loved them and will definitely be trying to get my hands on more!
Crazy how opening of booster boxes can all of the sudden be profitable 😅 Interesting video, keep up the good work 😁 Favourite would be...probably base set blastoise, always wanted that one.
I would be fine with just having a pack. I haven’t been able to get an etb or even a pack.
My favorite Celebration card is Shining Magikarp
i have the original shining magikarp
Me aswell
i pulled it last night, that and the gold star umbreon from the same tin. I couldn’t believe it because the first tin was garbage
I also have him 100 times
Blastoise was my base set favourite, and I packed him in my first booster pack of celebrations!
Nice
I used to be into pokemon when I was younger in the 90s early 2000s. I am now getting back into it for the collectability aspect. I have a few box sets like this one just sitting in the closet, it kind of sucks that I don't have the same respect for the game that I used to at this point I'm looking at it to gain a profit. 2023 new years resolution was to start playing pokemon again.
My favorite card has got to be the full art professor's research. Just gorgeous art in my opinion!
If you play the game it’s also a legit card! So cool they made professor oak the new research card!
I actually really love the 'normal' version, because of the arm in the text box. Feels really special in Pokemon.
I don't have a favorite card, as I watch these videos to learn to help my daughter with her collection. She loves them all and the laughs and smiles she has opening them is my favorite thing.
Honestly the common kyogre and Groudon are sick, love the team members in the art. But overall probably mew ex or umbreon star for me
cant pick a favourite. can just say the old school cards redone are amazing! so much nostalgia :)
If we talking about favorite cards in this pack it’s got to be the umbreon.
Why though?
I pulled one! Such a beautiful card, better in person than you'd expect
@@bendlk7758 Im so jealous! I've given a shot at getting that card but with no luck. Congratulations!
@@lastto1st982 it's at gma rn, hoping for a 10! Gonna sell the graded version and buy a raw light played a little while later probably
Can't believe the singles prices, it's insane! The full art red cheeks Pikachu is probably my favorite card. Blaine's Charizard promo is awesome as well.
My favorite is the Blastoise reprint! Love the ripple wave.
Celebrations is so much fun, can’t wait till more are on shelves!
I love the retro blastoise. It was the card I wanted and coveted so much as a child, and now it’s back and even with the cool texture. I adore it
I bought my wife some for her bday and she pulled a Charizard on the last pack lol she was stoked
I haven’t collected Pokémon cards in a few years so these cards could be very beneficial for me but I’m k if someone who enjoys Pokémon gets it too 👍
My favourite non-promo card from the set is probably the full art prof research actually, first full art trainer I've ever pulled too!
My favorite card from the set is a Dark Gyarados. My Mom purchased me Team Rocket packs from QVC the year the set was released, and a promo Dark Gyarados was included. I've loved the card ever since.
My favourite card definetely is the charizard. I would like to win these cards because I was half an hour too late at my local gaming store for this box and I get really excited opening packs haha. May the best win!
I hope you win dude
@@Greg-uq1ft thanks!
I've only managed to open 2 packs of celebrations so far from a collection box but pulled the Blastoise and the Umbreon gold star 😅🌟 Nice way to start a set 👌🏻
Have yet to find any product. Always looking for this set! The cards bring back so many memories
My favorite card would probably have to be the Venusaur
Why encourage this type of behaviour?
Because it's fun and you're not losing a lot of money on shiny cardboard. By selling all of it you're doing everyone a favor by just selling them the thing they need. Everybody wins!
Love Celebrations. Working on getting a full set of the original 3.
Great videos. I got blessed and was able to get a Celebrations Ultra-Premium Collection. Just waiting for the right time to open it up.
I have been a pokemon fan, as soon as i was old enough to be a fan of anything. I love that greninja card. Looks amazing.
Huge fan, although most celebrations cards are worth $5 I hope they increase in the future, my fav card out of this set is 100% the reshiram full art. Although I haven't pulled it yet my friend has it and I am trying to get it off him but he's not gonna give it to me anytime soon :(. have a great day pokevev hope you choose me.
Favorite is definitely Shining Magikarp. Celebrations has been so much fun to open.
My favorite card from celebrations is OG Charizard! Pulled one on my second tin too! Missing Blastoise and some other classics. This set is awesome. Better than Generations.
My son loves your channel so much. You inspired him to make his own channel. Keep up the great work. Much love
My favourite Celebrations Card is the Gold Mew 🥳 Love your videos Pokerev, keep up the amazing content! 👍
All about the collections for me! Love all the cards. Definitely want this full set!
the $17.00 tins Walmart sells are actually the best bang for your buck. You can buy 3 tins for 55 bucks and you get 12 celebration packs, 3 vivid voltage packs, 3 darkness ablaze totaling to 18 booster packs for the price of $55.00 usd!
My personal favorite pokemon from celebrations packs is probably the 1st edition charzard, venesaur, or blastoise. I only just started in mid 2021, so I never got a chance to get them legit, so those 3 are really cool for me
You have officially convinced me to buy one of these packs thank you :)
Never thought of that but thank you for sharing that information
Mine is the Umbreon gold star or the shinning Magikarp! But in all reality all the classic cards! I collected since 1999 up til 2007 or 2008 and stopped til my 9 year old daughter got me back into them a year ago and it's been such an insane loving bonding time! We got closer because of pokemon and watching you pokerev! So thank you man! Keep the great content coming and awesome giveaways!
for celebrations my favorite card is flying pikachu Vmax
i absolutely love the zapdos in this set!
Since, im not going to be able to trade off non card, or pack things to other ppl. Im still making a profit. So $103 and I pay about 70 - 80 dollars from Amazon, -$10 from shipping just about then it goes to around to 13 - 23 dollars! Thanks man!
Pulled two charizards, two venasaurs and some other goodies from 2 elite trainer boxes and from lances charizard V collection. Looking to post vid on that soon. Getting some inspo and tricks on how to film/edit it from ya. Thanks!
does anyone know if celebrations etbs will be in stock around christmas? tring to buy one but no luck here in canada.
I recently started collecting cards without doing research, and I bought the premium figure collection pikachu for $85 lol. They were sold out everywhere else, and it was the only one. But after seeing this video I don’t feel too bad because I thought it would be a total ripoff.
I have one for 100$
I feel greedy trying to win both celebrations give aways. . . But here I am. Syther for the 8year old me is my favourite after blastosie and charizard but they’re more nostalgic than anything. Worth a try. Great video as per sir
My favorite has to be gold star umbreon. I’ve always wanted a gold star and Umbreon is definitely a top 10 Pokémon for me
My favorite card from celebrations is the metal pikachu. I was lucky enough to find the premium box at GameStop and got it and the charizard metal card.
Flying Chonkachu is amazing but Blue Mew is one of my favorite cards of all time already.
Thinking about getting this booster box, it's 80 on Amazon. But I'm gonna definitely check some stores out today, maybe some hobby shops.
My favorite card from Celebrations is probably Gold Mew which I have actually pulled.
Fave card is always Zard, either Metal or normz... but that Shiny Mew is gr8 too
I bought multiple products of celebrations and kept them sealed and bought extra to open. I have all the cards and at least one of every celebrations product sealed for investment purposes.
The OG zard is my fav. But that metal zard in the UPC is hella dope!
Honestly some of the cards will sky rocket in a few years time cuz in 2016 all you could see in stores was evolutions and now there is cards from that series that go for 1k when they were pretty easy to get lookin back
Love your channel. Fav card from celebrations is flying pikachu
