This was my box that I put up through the mentioned auction site. I am extremely happy that it went to an actual collector after all said and done. Just now getting to see it be opened.
That’s awesome that you found this video then! To bad it wasn’t shadowless, but is what it is.
@@pokehex5555 I thought you said right in the beginning of the video that it was shadowless?
@@SavageRed it is shadowless👍
I apologize I mixed this comment up with my most recent video unboxing where I gambled on a maybe shadowless box opening. This box was definitely shadowless.
Amazing box man idk how u don't have anymore subs than u do opening boxes like this well I'm def gonna sub can't wait to watch some more of your vids
20 years later i can still remeber the smell of opening a fresh pack of Pokémon cards
Right
I just smelled it when I read this
Try 25 years later
same, so weird how the brain works@@Metanoia000
Same!
Shoutout to dude’s wife for being mad supportive
For real he treated her like shit multiple times. Hopefully he doesn't lose her over some pokemon cards.
I’m glad I’m not the only one that thought that. He couldn’t stop being a dick to her.
You see that rock on her finger? He could be making mud pies behind a dumpster and she would be supportive.
I think he was only super nervous about keeping the cards in mint conditions, if you were a racer and had to let your wife do 3 laps in your place on your very expensive car during one of your most important races of your life you'd prob act like this too.
Women are meant to be submissive and told what to do he jus being a man
She def had my anxiety out the roof how she was opening them 😂lolol
Seriously!!!
Same lol
Not wearing gloves and not using scissors is CRAZY.
Man, the old art on these cards is so nostalgic. Love it.
un-rivaled art
fr.
Same!
Much more Absolute perfection 😢
Title should say : how to turn 100k into 10k 🤣
Love how chill you are, getting really bored of these scream and shout KZheadrs... you all know the ones I mean. Genuinely enjoying it without going mad
Ya they annoy the hell out of me too.
@@pokehex5555got a sub from me mate! Keep up the great content 😁👍
Thank you so much. Anything you would like to see in particular?
@@pokehex5555 Obsessed with Holon Phantoms at the mo! Really hard to find them unfortunately, would love to see that box break though! 😁
Wow this stuff is pretty rare. Trying to find history of a previous box sold and can’t find it.
Love the wife's response! "You still pulled a charizard". Come back to earth, this is still amazing lmao
and still said she was proud...my wife woulda yanked off the rest of my hair
Do you also like the way she nearly bent the fucking cards and half trying to open them?
@@glasssofOJ ................ Really my guy, shut up.
you cannot be casual with $93k@@jaquansatchel4372
@@glasssofOJ Shut up loser
I'll never get tired of watching these videos it's so exciting seeing what people pull from these super rare vintage boxes also it's very sweet you shared this experience with your wife
Seeing this is so bittersweet for me. I used to be an insane Pokémon card collector in the early 2000s in 5th-8th grade. Had a few binders full of cards including a ton of holos. My house was hit by a really bad storm and the entire basement flooded to the ceiling . The binders were down there and got completely soaked and got thrown away by a company that came to clean the basement afterwards. I still think about those binders all the time and imagine what super rare cards I might have had and not known about at the time.
I think my mom sold my binders in a yard sale back in the day 😢
I think all collectors have some deep pain about their past cards as a child. Thus we try to make up for it in the present. I’d say 4-5 years ago shit hit the tan in my household and ended up having to move everything out. I made SURE to bring those cards. All of them. One big box. Put them in the basement of my grandmothers house and never found them since. I searched that entire basement.
All good people. Just do it with your kids now🙌
I remember my first ever Pokemon pack when I was like 7 had a holo shadowless Charizard, granted I probably put it through the ringer as a kid 😂 I also remember having 3 BEWD from LOB. Lost em all in a flood too. Shit sucks 😂
@@user-ti6pw6hd6w trying to teach the lil bro how to open packs with me lol. I don’t wanna yell every minute about being careful with the cards.
That breath you take before the first pack is great. Really hits home the gravity of opening such a valuable and historic product. Looking forward to more content, and would love to see some Neo sets or Aquapolis/Skyridge!
Bro watching your wife bend these packs and slide them against each other knowing it was a 93k box gives me anxiety
For real tho
I wanted to scream watching her do it lol. I guess when you got "fuck it" money like they do it doesn't matter.
Such a disrespectful woman... Rings on fingers, bending cards, throwing them around. Drunken slur... Belittling words
So much anxiety, wish she wasn’t there. Poor guy. I do appreciate that she appears supportive of him though.
For me, it was having to see him put his thumb directly onto the foil of almost every holo he pulled.
I couldn’t imagine the rush of opening a box like that! And of course now these boxes are even more rare than ever!
it brings a tear to my eye to see this finite supply get opened up but it has been a joy to see them again and folks treating the cards with reverence
@@RichBoyLivingthey cant make more of 1999 1st edition boxes?
@@jhudson_tiedye it’s called a printing press how do you think they made them in the first place? Lol
@@RichBoyLiving yeah but its 2023, not 1999 anymore. Are you aware how time works?
@@YaBoyBTrue yup but anyone can’t print whatever they want it’s not hard
@@RichBoyLivingtell us you’re young without telling us you’re young. You’ll figure stuff like this out when you’re older lol
It's really enjoyable to watch you guys open such crazy rare booster boxes, it gets me all anxious as if these were mine 😄
How have I missed this video? So nice to watch some just open rare packs, give out good info and have no obnoxiously loud put on reactions.
Thank you!
The smell of fresh cards after opening the pack, and the sleepless feel as you slide them in and out of the other cards was the best feeling as a kid
💯
This is absolutely insane, the fact youre so calm. I hope you enjoyed this moment. I haven't finished the video.
Seems like its not that big of a deal to him because he is used to spending tenda of thousands on singles. Probably wealthy
This is amazing! Not sure I could keep a battle styles box sealed for 1 month, never mind 22 years!
My anxiety was almost through the roof lol thank you for being so calm and not screaming. Unbelievable to watch and a flood of memories coming back.
Tough to watch her openings after you did such a great job with the presentation. Glad you both had fun though. 37:43 - She nails it!
So awesome man. You need way more subs for this content! Had a blast watching yall -- thanks for the memories!
16:25 Moment of recognition. Kadabra's are some of the rarest Pokemon cards, because Yuri Geller sued the Pokemon Co. in the year 2000, claiming Kadabra stole his iconic spoon bending trick. They stopped printing Kadabra cards until Yuri Geller came to a comprise with Pokemon Co. allowing them to Print Pokemon Cards again in 2022. So think about it, Every Pokemon from base set has been reprinted, to some variance, except for Kadabra. And if collectors want to collect the rarest Pokemon cards, then they should look into Kadabra cards. This man gets it.
Well well well, I don't know if you are aware of the latest set news, but Kadabra just appeared again in Scarlet & Violet Pokémon 151! An uncommon, reverse and holofoil with swirls version has been made available for him. Happy to say I finally own the boy myself. He'll be staying with my base set and dark Kadabra now :')
And yes I am missing Skyridge and that other one.. but I'll get to those someday.. I love that Skyridge artwork. The most modern interpretation we had of him 'till today.
@@ninjamuffin100 I am aware of the new sets, and the printing of Kadabra. I also have one copy of each of the Kadabra cards, including Skyridge, and Legendary Collection Reverse Holo (MINTY). The newer sets maybe printing him again, but the time gag between their printings have down their damage. I'm calling it. Kadabra will be the rarest Pokemon Cards. Keep them safe and sound. I'm currently storing my collection until I can afford to grade them again, with PSA.
@@TimISawake Preach!!
Kadabra didn’t have a spoon. Alakazam did.
Charizard hype went down real quick once you saw those 2 print lines sucks but you got the #1 Pokémon in the world you guys are awesome!
It’s totally wild how I remember having so many of these cards.
This video is slept on! Appreciate being able to watch you open this
That Shadowless Venusaur is so cool looking!
I especially love how the holo patterns are all shiny and clean. Nice to see how they were supposed to look in the first place compared to the scratched and played base set holo cards.
this is dope bro thanks for sharing. lowkey making me wanna crack one open myself ahahaha
yeah like you have one laying around just like that haha
lmao didnt expect to see u commenting here but now it explains why i got this recommended to me. also dam man chill work ur way up to a shadowless pack lol, rip some cheaper vintage first lol ill be waitin to see those vids man
YOOO CRIPY! DO ANOTHER VID ON CRISPY POKÉMON!
@austinlewis8325 guys dishwasher is making a lot of noise in this video
@@onfoot4745 dishes and washing machine all in 1! What a time to be alive
i love these videos i watch openings all night long. i hope to one day be able to open an amazing pack like these
I got SO excited when you started to peel off the plastic!!! It was the same feeling I get when I open a booster box, but this one is in another league of its own!! This is awesome man, thanks for sharing!!!
Man this is so nostalgic. I love it!
This is soo nostalgic it takes me back to my school days. Everyone opening their packs inside the school bus and trading 😢
Get yourself a girl who congratulates you on pulling a Holo Charizard. Goals
I know what a condescending gold digger. She's just mad she didn't get a new Rolex. She was so disrespectful to her husband when she should be supporting him him. him.
@@bobberrob1605”get yourself a girl” is a phrase of speech. I think you missed the point
@@bobberrob1605 she seems like a normal person, you’re just weird
Geeeez, watchin this brought back so many memories. I remember in early middle school having basically the set of holos.. i had them sleeved and everything in my binder. obviously i was a huge fan, just loved how i had them in their order and just stared at them lol.. Then years past, I was in my early 20s and I completely forgot about them.. and then i happen to remember and i asked my mom what she did with them.. she said she gave them away.. A part of me died lol.. and then seein what these eventually became makes me feel proud i legit had a crazy expensive collection as a kid lol... Nothing will ever beat saving my money, buyin my packs, and then eventually like most kids dream of. Pullin that Charizard. Thank you for the video & your collection is immaculate!
wow this brought me back to my childhood, i had most of these cards in a big pokemon binder. Have since Lost it with multiple moving since being a kid but I know I had a lot of rare cards
man I had all of those, hundreds of them and my mother sold them at a garage sale after I moved out of home. though they wouldn't be worth anything seeing as I played with the cards every day and we didn't have slips back then 👌
Can't believe this was only a year ago. Amazing.
Had a feeling it was gonna be a zard in that pack. Lot of people say there’s a huge chance if there’s a arcanine in the front spot it’s most often a hot lizard lol
Spends $93k on cards and handles them like a savage.
I mean gloves at least right they’re basically gemstones
And treated even the non holo rares as an energy card. You take care of each one as if it’s a charizard imo.
@@erickzamora921 The one thing you don't do with valuable collectables is wear gloves. It's actually worse to do that. Most places like museums and such that handle old objects that are fragile like books and such will not allow you to wear gloves. Only for rare things the you body oil may hurt, which is not much.
So bad tbh watching her open them.and how do you put up with that whiney voice 24/7 is beyond me 🤣
Waw, crazy to see this unique box being opened. I hope you pull the big 3 and you have them graded.
You are WAY more patient than I am! Wow!
This is sick. Awesome opening
Man I can smell them cards like I did 20 years ago...dunno if was bc my mother had them in her jacket after bought and gave me a pack a week or bc it was really their smell. Nothing like the new ones of today.Nice memories, nice times...😢
Pulling a "rare" Trainer card has the same vibe as getting socks for Christmas.
this is best channel!! I've just recently gotten into Pokémon properly so this is incredible to see
Really enjoyed this video, congrats on the charizard pull.
I really hated the girl opening the packs… showed the rare card early, just very poor job. But I would watch the guy do it again. I loved the banter you guys have together!
lol thanks
Amazing video I have a single Blastoise shadowless pack that is one of my gems in my collection I scored it from a seller in Japan and its heavy and in perfect condition one I plan on opening it one day... lol for some box suggestions I'd love to see an EX Deoxys and Topps 2000 movie box breaks I want to see someone pull the first apprrance lugia there aren't any videos of anyone pulling that card on here and I'd love to see that on here.
i dont even collect but this was fun to watch looking forward to more from this new channel
I opened so much of this stuff as a 9/10 year old. Wish I had a fraction of what I had back then. Crazy to think my parents kept all my bs baseball/hockey cards which are worthless now and tossed my pokemon card binders that were loaded 😅
I will NEVER understand or feel any sort of solidarity with parents who toss out things that aren't theirs without ASKING the kid, I hear it all the time, it even happened to me
The exact same happened to me when i was young! Had binders full of old pokemon and yu gi oh cards that my parents just gave out to little cousins and guarantee had multiple super expensive cards! Now im stuck with a crap ton of hockey/football/baseball cards that are worthless. I feel ur pain lol
some of your hockey cards might be worth some money
That's OK I had a base master set that my aunt "held on to" until I got older. She gave me barely any cards and their German and like 40 gym hero cards sucks.
Shout out to your wife/girlfriend, she's supportive as heck! You got an absolute keeper. The charizard wasn't as great as can be but she's right, you did pull the holy grail! Even with the print lines I'd still be so proud of that!
What a pleasant stroll down memory lane. I had 1st edition of every holo as a kid in middle school. I sold my 1st edition Charizard for $80 to buy Donkey Kong 64 when it was released in 1999. At the time it was worth only $100-120. A few years later I ended up selling my entire binder of Pokemon cards at a garage sale for a painfully stupid amount, I basically gave them away. I want to say for $15. Definitely less than $50. At that time I remember everyone I knew saying they weren't worth anything anymore and it was "just a fad like Beanie Babies" and that sadly became my final verdict. Looking back, it's one of very few true regrets I have. Oh well, live and learn I guess.
Some guy ripped me off at a garage sale at my grandma's when I was about 11. $35 for the whole binder instead of $35 for a shiny Clefable because he took advantage of me. Bad dude.
My parents gave away my entire collection as a teenager because according to them I was already too old for that 😂
Why have so many kids be willing to just let go of their childhood. Thats your first mistake.
I will definitely not laugh and scoff at my child for what she is into, i will support anything and watch her come out on top. Parents who Think they know best and reading these stories, complete morons who dont understand markets and trends. Hell i ask my 11 yo nephew all the time what he is into, guess what? Its STILL pokemon.
Did the same thing man. Must of have 3 halo 1st edition charizards at one time. Sold my whole lot for an n64 and skate shoes
Yo amazing to see an actual collector making a video like this
Thank you, is there anything you would like to see me video?
Just casually sitting at a table opening a 93k box of shadowless 😱😱
My son 8 just got into pokemon cards and now i cant stop watching videos hahah. I might be spending some money now to help finish some sets for my quote " son "
I gave up on the pretext and just started my own binder. My daughter and I have an agreement not to touch each others binders haha she says hers are better because all my cards are old 😂
If only I’d known these would go for that price. God damn I wish I could find my binder of holographic original Pokémon
This video scratches that spot on my brain so good👁🫦👁
Crazy to think how many of these I opened as a kid.
It keeps me awake at night
Pokemon came out when i was in computer school. I was'nt nterested in that kind of game. Im still watching now. Because i wondered why you would open it. Now i know why. God bless. I hope you got em all.
Id love to see a fossil box opening! Love that set. Great video!!
I opened one on my channel already. The box was actually crazy.
Nice man. Not sure why this doesn't have more views! 👌
It was awesome to see this. Really brings back memories. Ngl tough watching those packs get bent as she struggled to open them was hurting my soul!!!
When she said you should give some away...... I had a binder with some of the original 151 I took great care of them I don't know how many I had or what happened to that binder but just started getting back into it with the release of scarlet and Violet 151 I am 35 now. The nostalgia is amazing. I wouldn't mind receiving some of your extras 😂 I don't even care what they grade. I wouldn't be trying to resell it would just be for my own collection. 😊
I used to work at a comic book store in the late 1990s (98-99). I remember cracking a foil Charazard and some kids immediately walked up to me offering me thirty bucks for it lol
I miss opening these packs as a kid. I just wish I would of known how much these cards were gonna be worth. Great rip bro 👍🏽
We all do 😅
Worth is a weird definition, because lets be honest they arent worth shit. But then again yes they are because appearantly there are idiots who pay tons of money for these pieces of paper. But are they worth that in a normal persons mind? Come on now no. Do I like pokemon and do I think a charizard card of way back then is cool? Yeah sure. 100k cool? No lmao more like 10 euro cool
@@MCB400100 lol I know they took all the fun out of it smh 🤦🏽♂️
@@MCB400100anything that isn’t food, shelter or medicine isn’t "worth shit”. You can apply your logic to pretty much anything. It’s such a boring take at the end of the day.
@@Teih. I see what you're saying, but I wasnt going there. Because I think lots of stuff that isnt necesairly needed to survive, is worth the money. Vacations, phones, comfortable chairs, nice televisions, decorations that you like. Anything really. Its not needed, but its more worth the money than a pokemon card with these crazy prices. If I imagine I have everything I need and theres barely a thing I can think of that I would like to buy. I would still not buy a card like this over 50 dollars, even if I was interested in it. Thats how off this price is with the actual value imo.
He has a lot more Patience or money, probably money than I have just looking at his wife bending the cards trying to open the packs was killing me. I would have opened them all and then let her do the reveal. Kudus to him for not being a douche like I would have been 😂
calling her put would not have been a douche move but could actually potentially cost him thousands if she was damaging cards
Ikr I’m loving watching these packs get opened but she’s not really taking a 93000 dollar box of cards very seriously and it’s giving me anxiety watching her nails dig the sides of each card as she shuffles through the pack. Not to mention practically folding them in half trying to open the pack lol
Yeah, what the hell is she doing?
Hahaha thought EXACTLY the same!!
@@sltb3jcI wonder if she comes from a UBER wealthy family, or if he just makes insane money, or she does, or both. I'm so curious. 99% of ppl will NEVER get to buy something that cost 100 grand. Let alone shiny cardboard! And save it, yes I know ppl own homes 😅😂. But other than the house, how many people can buy something like THIS for 100k!? He must be like a CFO of a big big corporation. Or maybe they inherited money. I'm NEVER like this but I'm SO curious how they afford these things! I mean I guess there's credit and loans, but I don't get that feeling. Guy bought a 100k Charizard! Man I'm so happy for these 2. I was 12 in 1999, I bet they're close in age. ❤❤ Awesome video you two! I'm gonna sub.
You’re so lucky !! Awesome video 👍🏽
Having a spouse who supports collecting and involves themselves in the process is super rare. In terms of pokemon, that's the priceless pull.
Perfect example as to why you should have separate hobbies to your other half
your wifes banter is on point mate, really wholesome video
I love how chill your openings are. Every other content creator is just so over the top
That alakazam was beautiful
Did you even watched the video? It had a big fuck you print line in the middle of it @.@
I thought HE wasnt being careful enough and she steps in being so rough opening the packs. a few cringe moments... but thanks for sharing this epic opening!!!
How could I have been more careful? Don’t say gloves lol
@@pokehex5555he isn't wrong, your wife gave me anxiety opening the packs at times. I would say, you both put your thumbs on the holos, they scratch and leave finger print marks so easy. Great video though 👍
Such a beautiful piece of our childhoods… also I cringed so hard when you let her open packs lmao
I'm so jealous you get to open a box like this! And it must be super cool having a girlfriend who thinks buying these pokemon boxes is so cool as well. You are a legend! Keep pokeing my dude!
The original cards are the most nostalgic. Thanks for this 😁
Thanks for watching!
I’m new to collecting magic since this first set came out and I was a child - lol. I’m getting back into it with my wife now for the SV 151. Gonna collect em all.
A bunch of these are misprints! Bulbasour “length length” and voltorb “monster” ball, to name a few! Fun video. I can smell the cards from here.
Every shadowless bulbasaur has that misprint, it is cool though
Hey guys...good job. It's nice to know you don't need to fake-scream all the time when opening packs!
Thank you for being down to earth and not overly dramatic despite the nostalgia of this beauty
Can you imagine having the money to pay for this? I barley can pay rent each month 😂
I feel ya bud, true shit
And then have a wife like that?🤣
I can feel your anticipation and excitement/nervousness in your voice. It’s kind of an amazing thing thanks for sharing with all of us!
One of my earliest memories is getting a master box that came with 2 starter decks and the foil mchamp in the single sealed pack at a bowling alley birthday party
I had a binder with a bunch of first edition holographic pokemon cards as a kid, and my dad threw all of them away because in the 90s, people thought they were demonic. Needless to say, i showed him how much these are worth now, and it was hilarious to watch his eyes get wide 😂
I still have a loooooooot of cards, talking meters of pretty much only first gen stuff. Lots of holos and whatnot, no idea what it's actually worth. haha 😂 Like, the pokemons in the background, got several copies of most of them. It's all in some boxes. lol
Same thing happened to me. My mom chucked about $5k worth of pokemon cards.
My mom sold 6 binders full of Pokémon and baseball cards for $5 in a yard sale. Someone came up big.
@@briancaliforniawell to be honest they probably were thrown away by that persons mom as well 😂
wtf are all the comments of people’s weird a** parents selling or throwing away their stuff? Yikes….
Video is crazy in alot of ways. First busting open a100k box of cards, then letting the wife open them. The other crazy part is having a wife who supports this. My wife has been wanting me to get rid of all my collectibles. I have a sealed mint starter box from around 97 which is one of the many things she wants gone. Glad you guys had fun with this and can support your hobby.
do you have your psa graded cards in the background wrapped in a special bag/protector?
I remember pulling a holo Gary out of one of those packs back in the day. I was freaking out haha. Great video
Thank you for the nostalgia ❤
A woman that supports your hobby is a winner 🥂. Enjoyed watching this video. Remember begging my parents to take me to 7/11 for cards all the time 😂.
She awkwardly supports it, when she passively commented/jokes about the 9k raichu it was clear she doesn't feels good about spending all those money for a card, she doesn't like it or get it but she let's him anyway because she prob is cared for anyway.
She might have a point lol it was a light jab @lewdjiggle2011
I had a ton of cards from this set when I was a kid, wish I still had them.
I was born in 88 so grew up right through the hype of Pokemon. Love watching this... Wish my mother had a bunch of packs somewhere that she forgot to give me 20 years ago
I wish I had a Time Machine so I can go back to 1999 and buy these boxes for cheap and than take them back to the year 2023.
Bitcoin would have been a better investment
We all wish this lol
The groans from your wife in the background when you mention the prices are top tier content 😂
LOL
Glad I stumbled upon this! So much nostalgia from when I was a kid in middle school. Bitter sweet though, I took a whole collection (almost a complete set) I had including a holographic Charizard. Unfortunately while I was in gym class, someone stole my whole collection. If only I knew how important these would have been so many years later. Lessons learned. Regardless, fun video to watch!
I had so many Farfetchd 😂 I had binders of Pokémon and Yugioh and no longer know where, I had a blastoise card for sure as it was my favorite on game boy
Imagine getting the rarest cards ever to have random damage from manufacturers or handlers.....
how would it have random damage?
Manufacturer and printing errors. Most cards are being opened as psa 7 -8 brand new out of the packaging... many charizards have a huge print line in the middle of the holo area. If I buy something for that much brand new id be angry
A hexican that's also a Pokémon collector? How dope! I seen it all lol
Oh my god all those packs is so damn nostalgic for me. I remember everyday I went to work with my mom at the mall, I had a few hours and she’s give me 8 bucks or whatever it was to get a pack
Man, this is straight up nostalgia
“You still pulled a charizard babe you did it I’m so proud just be happy you pulled one” protect this woman at all cost
lol
