Other then that all of the 1st edition boxes are owned by serious collectors and either sold to people like Logan to open or they just sit on them to increase value.

    I wonder if he shines himself up to prevent anyone being able to tell when he's sweating.
    *WAIT.*
    What if the shine is actually _sealing in_ the sweat, so he can never sweat under pressure?!
    The conspiracy continues.

    22:21 I cringed a little inside watching him drop it, but you know, it happens. The cards are kind of small, very understandable that they could get dropped. At least it’s a very short distance. It’s probably ok, but definitely not ideal. I’m sure he understands how careful he needs to handle these cards, and he’s not going to make that mistake again.
    *drags the card across the table*
    I legit dropped my jaw when I saw that. I could not believe they would do something like that. Not to mention they’re handling these cards bare handed. The oils on their fingertips are going to ruin the value of those cards.

      Literally no one handles cards with gloves, in fact amateur card handlers use gloves because you can damage the card easier with gloves on. Pressure control is easier with bare hands and you can snag the glove on it.

    The way he surrounded them with his goons is actually a business tactic. Care salesmans will say like "lemme get our numbers guy" then there's 2 people pressuring you. Then they say let us get our manager. There's 3 people pressuring. So if they don't like the cards. They'll have a harder time declining. What an ass.
