I swear! How TF are they always getting the big hits with American product. Do they not have their own sports product to rip? I'm getting tired of seeing it.
I know it's hard, but just try to imagine that China is the 2nd most populous country with a huuuuge NBA influence, and fans that love ripping packs as much as we do with the same access to panini products if you're a breaker
BEST PART OF WHOLE VIDEO WAS SEEING THE BREAKER FROM THE #1 SPOT COVER HIS OWN EARS FROM THE SCREAMING..ABOUT TIME THEY GAVE THEMSELVES A HEADACHE...LOL
No where near as bad as a breaker busting it down and making 685 off a box from 30 idiots paying $50 or more per team/player. Resellers have always been in the market and charging a premium not sure why they all of sudden receive the majority of the hate in the industry.
Ian, if you started a "Top Ten Trash Pulls of the Week from Overpriced Hobby and Retail Boxes," I would literally have three years worth of video to send to you and trust me, I would end each week at #1.
I would've fought you for #1 some of those weeks for sure in the last 5 yrs. I literally stopped buying hobby boxes after 2022 and stick to cheap retail for fun. I stopped buying ANYTHING online except from Topps or Panini direct because I have NEVER pulled anything good from dozens of boxes from Dave & As and "Steal" City. It was obvious quickly years ago that those were BS
So much obscene levels of money for a rookie pitcher. Imagine going back 25 years and buying into the hype of Kerry Wood and spending 5 and 6 figures on one of his rookie cards.
Those same cards would be worth a whopping 3 figures today. You would have been better off burning that money for warmth to save money on your heating bill.
I’ve been saying “Kerry wood and mark prior” for months. Best case how do Skenes prices go up? He absolutely dominates on this level for 10 years bringing his teams to the championship multiple times? And how does his rookie superfractor fall to three digits? Oh let me count the ways. I’ll bet it’s more likely he has a Tommy John in the next four years than not, and a middling season a year later. I Wander…. I watched the video of a guy pulling the Skenes flagship platinum 1/1 and someone told him in comments to sock it away for 20 years. That’s literally the worst thing you could advise. Let some millionaire absorb the deflation.
I pulled some good cards this weekend. Nothing like this but cards of players I PC so I'm happy. I bought a hanger from Walmart and a blaster from Walgreens and pulled a Dominguez auto and an Ohtani record camo/25
Hey Ian, when is Padres Jackson Merrill (ROY) going to start getting some love? Just 21 years old, All-Star center fielder & just won his first Silver Slugger Award, all during his first year playing a new position. We appreciate his top caliber play & his humble personality here in San Diego.
Another amazing week of top ten pulls, hope to see more hockey in it, though some hobby prices past silly. take care Ian and Nicky have amazing week for your family
I have an ohtani card with a weird autograph that looks printed, and it has a clear sticker over it. It's a 2018 future stars card, but I can't find anything about it. I got it out of a pack, but don't know anything about it. Does anyone know what it is?
I pulled a 1/1 Mike James black laser from donruss euroleague hobby box and also 5/10 pau gasol. This is my first time ever opening a hobby box/ pack. Beginners luck is actually a thing
That Caitlin from Steel City was not a Refractor you are wrong on that part it was another 1 of 1 gold vinyl Of Caitlin in which I watched him pull live which also means there's a gold vinyl 1 of 1 of her courtside auto still out there somewhere since that's the second one pulled🤦
The Caitlyn Clark card is soemthing you buy a fireproof safe for. Once it’s graded you don’t look at it for 20 years. For the wnba and their sport there that card will prove to be a historical artifact
First he said victor wembanyaNa and has no clue who tony parker is 😂😂. He didnt even know it was a dual auto either. Its a shame these bonehead clowns entered this hobby for the sole purpose of trying to receive so sort of financial gain.
Interesting only to me that all the top cards are sent to or opened by live breakers with lots of viewers or a heavy social media presence. Zero video of a regular card collector getting a big hit. I spend about $5K a year on cards and have never once hit a 1/1.
@@chasejackson7248 Yes. However, this is not regulated. My hunch is Topps ships cases with rarer cards out to those with a platform. Hyper targeted audience. Exciting content. Good for sales. Even the most popular rippers aren't purchasing 3000 cases of cards my friend. Not possible to prove, so I just look at the content available, and whose selling the rare cards on selling platforms... and my experience as a guy who buys many cases of cards each season. I find it all a bit odd.
I dont understand how they make a 1 of 1 with a print line on it???? Where the hell is quality control? I get regular cards have defects and stuff but a 1 of 1???
Brock Purdy ain’t worth shit , please stop pumping his market for your own personal gain , he’s shown time and time again he’s only as good as the people around him
I hate Panini for their print lines on massive cards. I have 2 Gold Vinyl 1/1's that have the same print line and Panini would not replace them. Thanks for ruining my 1/1's
Im sorry but Imho the debute cards are going to be so much higher than you and others are saying! I saw a Guy at a pit card shop say he and investors are willing to pay $250,000.⁰⁰ for the skenes debute?.?.? If so the sky is the limit for all the rest!!!!!!!
that's just absurd money for a rookie pitcher. On ebay right now there's a PSA 9 graded Nolan Ryan rookie for $118k, meaning you could get 2 of those for the price of the Skenes card. There's zero chance that guy become Nolan Ryan, let alone have twice his career.
Man does PSA charge depending on the value of the card, wow they do no way that sounds so fair, do they also recharge U anther higher price chunk if U have to get the card regraded?! Man PSA must be printing money on the cards?! PSA is garbage
Click bait. I was really hoping to see a video of the card pictured. Also, these Chinese breakers.... Something fishing. Direct from the China Panini facility to their doors.
How the Chinese always get the best cards man.. hobby is dying and getting scammed up big time by scanners and breakers.. I see a massive pull back coming

Haven’t watched yet but my guess is China pulled the top card
lol can’t make it up
lmao you called it
@@TheAlphaGoldFish16 do you think that’s cause they just print the top hits or cause they’ve got the most machines scanning packs/boxes? Maybe both
Chinese breakers got the Scanning machines working over time again
I swear! How TF are they always getting the big hits with American product. Do they not have their own sports product to rip? I'm getting tired of seeing it.
Is it the Chinese or Japanese?
Facts.

@@jimbfrysanchez2367 or the north Korea😂
I love how the guy at #3 just sounded confused the entire time. Took so long for his brain to register it all 😅😂
Guy at #3 bought that much Mercury & still can't say Wemby's name right
The lady saying "GAWDZEEWA" has my vote!

Isnt steel city the store that sells the $199.⁰⁰ box of update for $385.⁰⁰??? If so he doesn't deserve any good pulls!!!
Right he crazy for that

Steel city gives crazy pulls tho I got a Luca doncic rpa game usd rpa on cat utopia outa 49 spectra
Pretty much every breaker and card store do that, it's all just one big scalper network.
That’s disappointing I liked steel city but that’s absolutely gross to gouge the hobby

Oof. “My niners about to go on a run” - guessing this was filmed before the game .
😬
Purdy coming down to reality RIP to his investors
So much obscene levels of money for a rookie pitcher. Imagine going back 25 years and buying into the hype of Kerry Wood and spending 5 and 6 figures on one of his rookie cards.
My thoughts exactly. He'll have 1 mid yr and all his stuff will go down 90%. Just insane.

Man I wish I was as lucky as these guys
5:13 TRANSLATED = "I better hit BIG, I better hit BIG...." 🤑
woahhh that caitlyn clark card is insane, pick 1, round 1, number 1, 1 of 1. all golden, and shes awesome. wow.
I got a big pull for you and it's a 1 of 9 and you get all 9 to pull on.
That duar rogoman is sick!
My favorite was of course #8 Brock Purdy 1/1. 💯🔥🏈🙏👌💪👍
Honoured to own the number 4 on the list
Nice! Congrats!
Number 7 this week for us!!! Super excited !!!!
What about the walt disney 1/1 pulled in one break for the same person?
I am literally aspiring to be on at least one of If Sports Cards' "Top 10 Sports Cards Pulls of the Week!"
We all are my friend! We all are! 😔🤷
@@J8r2tjust made my 1st appearance on here and I am proud of it!!!!
So weird to me that 1/1 high end cards have sticker autos..thank God for hockey
and thats why they are not high end
@666Necropsy….WRONG. National Treasure is about as high end is there is. And they have sticker auto’s 1/1….. do your research before ya talk bs
@@johnbritt53 keep buying your stickers
49er's going on a run, cant even beat Seattle at home 🎉🎉🎉
Another amazing week of top ten pulls, hope to see more hockey in it, though some hobby prices past silly. take care Ian and Nicky have amazing week for your family
Love the videos! I look forward to this every Monday. Keep up the great work. Thank you for doing this, I appreciate you.
Can you imagine the duck race between LeBron & Wade? I would die if I lost that to a coin toss! 💀
Sorry for the negativity in the comments Ian, fun top 10 again as usual!
9:56....and his Girlfriend (Olivia Dunne) is the HOTTEST thing EVER....10/10!!! Dude is living life to the fullest right now!
The Select 1 of 1 Black Finite Caitlin Clark Auto has been hit at LCS in Oklahoma
How does panini continually issue 1 of ones with print defects?
Seems like the big cards are only being pulled by breakers! Interesting 🤔 💭
Million $ card or close 😊😊
Best content on YT! Always love your videos man ❤

Amazing pulls 💥💥
Great job as always keep up the good work you the man!!!!!!
Goes to golden if I hit
Dam those scanners do work
All I can say is wowow!!!!! Great video sir!
Where will the Absolute be sold first?

great promotion
People never really learn about paying premium for pitchers , if you are holding and not flipping Skenes you are doing it wrong

Check out what peds just pulled!
12 seconds ago is arousing. Happy Monday Ian 🤝
Ccg my local card shop in the little small town we from. One of the nicest shops I’ve been too
No more braces. Right on. Teeth look great.
That offer is horrible for the Skenes from the Pirates

As well allowed to get their Chinese breaking app?
Great stuff
LOVE IT go cyclones baby
😂😂😂 comedy 🎭 at its finest
Rip Hamilton breaks
Wemby auto /25
Do anyone check Beckett price guide to find out what cards are really going for
I'd rather pull the Kanji auto Mike Imanaga II instead.
You know I don’t want the season tickets you know what I want
Another #1 to china
just sold 7 PSA 10 Cards for 250
Dude had to read Tony Parkers name to know who he was?

Number 1 card is so woke
Trump will stop Chinese breakers.
I wonder how many wembys are in this list 🙄
