All these dudes are rich when they started their pokemon collection journey. None of them came from nothing, they had the funds to do it already. Be honest content creators.
Couldn't agree more... Example creating a 3-4 Mil store in under 5 years is absolutely mind boggling... I would love to hear from small collectors and making their collection grow and learn from them.
Dylan and Bublastore got the Vendor POV on lock. Coop's Collection just reached 100k subs because of his kindness that many people think he keeps losing money giving away cards and selling cards at a discount. People thought he was losing, but in the long run, he is definitely winning. How many vendors have you seen give cards away and sell at a discount that favors the buyers tremendously? Not many.
Likely answer: Started with loads of money to buy in. Cynical answer: Running a cash business (easier to avoid tax). Neutral answer: Right time right place having the cards before they boomed in value (same principle as people inheriting house from parents in the UK 1990s when the market boomed in value - you sell you get rich).
Gonna be honest i thought Bulbastore was Mid 30s - Early 40s. I thought the guy i had seen at his table that looks like he's in his late teens was his son 😂
THIS VIDEO IS INSPIRING, any one could do it. With money or little bit of money… YOU JUST GOTTA DO IT! (been collecting for 4 years and recently been selling on Mercari, eBay and OfferUp) one day I want to do a event like this. Next year is the year!
I sold my childhood collection. for about 1500 and started buying small lots and resell on ebay for about 2 years. then started conventions. iv only done 2 conventions and about to do my 3rd. Im going with around 70k worth of inventory. Its been a grind but i keep advancing and progressing each thing i do. It doesnt always take a rich person just someone who grinds constantly.
I always think back to when they gave out a mew card at the "the first movie" premiere and wonder if it's even worth anything and what life would've been like if i had kept it. After all it was literally the first and only pokemon card i've ever owned. ❤ the channel and glad it's still kinda small. Just makes it more real and personalized.
If possible, could you explain how you use the Rollo printer in the Whatnot stream room. Is it for the person who ordered if so, could you show how to set that up and also go into OBS for Whatnot I believe a lot of people would love to see the background processes like that!
18:35 Thats my son Ventura 💙 he was going to ask you for a autograph. But saw you were busy in a interview and him being kind knew it was not the best moment for that. Hopefully next time he sees you he will get it. 😊
You would have to assume that TAG 10 illustrator was once a PSA 9. Since they’re a new company I wonder if they bumped up the grade for marketing reasons 🤔
But how guys this 3 years ago and have poncho pikachu or like that??? You start with some crazy money. I started with my like 300 euro and never used my money again, selling and buying with money I earn by selling hits. I m around 1000 bucks in plus. I started with chilling reign.. so like 3 to 4 years.
Early in the pkmn tcg collecting hobby addiction is how u could get the grails for much cheaper when they came out. Or u have a good career to buy or like real estate. I graded over 5000 pokemon cards, and grading cost is also very expensive now. back in the day it was $6-$7 a card.
As someone who has recorded pack openings and struggled to find a comfortable way to record it and show it well, 5:24, Radar's way is something that has never crossed my mind and now im doubting my intelligence.
Thank you for doing a video like this. Thinks it's easy to get discouraged early as an online presence. Hearing this definitely helps try to keep trending on.
Crazy how to a lot of these guys and women who are now huge collectors and UA-camrs from middle or upper class backgrounds some even just lower middle class. To most of them they’re reliving their youth and the feeling they felt when they pulled a charizard or any other rare from many booster packs And me I’m actually also still reliving the feeling not having all the booster packs to open and not ever pulling a charizard or blast pose maybe just a raichu and always wanting to be the kids who were bought the box sets and booster packs every weekend And here I am still wishing I could have the money to buy a box set or booster and finally pulling a charizard etc and still knowing I never will. Ahhhj gotta love the Pokémon nostalgia
They’re reliving their youth and so am I in the same yet so different ways. It’s like I’m still watching the privileged kids at school or the park Or a party showing off their prized cards and wishing I could be as fortunate as. Just like now watching these guy Except now I can’t beat any of them Up or steal their decks when they ain’t looking hahahaha
Most of them did have to invest a lot of money or time into the hobby, so saying a lot of these people got into it already having money I think you’re looking at it the incorrect way. Most of these people are passionate about the genre and media and that’s what brings value to it. If you’re surprised about a card being worth $500-1000, it’s usually because you don’t know enough about the genre or market because you weren’t ever truly interested in Pokemon. Thank you guys for inspiring me to maybe try to be a vendor one day and do vendor POVs
Ugh I hate the way this dude ONLY cares about profit when it comes to Pokemon. He’s not a fan at all. If Pokemon lost popularity he’d immediately abandon it and jump into whatever was profitable.
@@BrandonMartyn That’s the issue though is you do it on all your channels. If you just did it here I wouldn’t say anything at all as I would see it as a sort of seperate business focused channel distinct from your other channels. But even in your MysticRips videos you literally judge how good a set is based on constantly fluctuating prices of the cards rather than which ones you personally like best regardless of price. It just doesn’t come off well because when you do that it seems like you don’t actually like anything and go by price lists.
@blake7587 yo I don't know how to tell you this I know it might seem crazy but mabye it's because he relies on pokemon for a income and he needs money 🤯
So here's a fun fact: The more you comment on videos you don't like, the algorithm suggests them to you more often! So your best option is to just move on and not waste your time commenting because he's just gonna keep doing what he's doing. You don't have to like it, but you also don't have to speak on it. On the homepage there's this handy little button on suggested videos that says "Don't recommend this channel" 😉
@@PeacockTCG. Yo Peacock I don’t know if you understand this but you don’t have to pretend you’re a fan when you’re doing something for money. I’m sorry I should have made my point much simpler so people like you could understand.
15:20 was I the only one who was a bit disappointed with the Pokémon network owner interview. I was expecting a lot more details when clicking on the video :(
Pokémon Radar is a joke. He’s been caught on several occasions. Does everyone forget the shill bidding he committed? Some of these guys are actually scummy & only hurt the hobby.
Seeing Leonhart in a different light on this video...bro you and him should try and do something together..the vibes were really good..man Leinart seems so much better with you...I think the asian guy was good..I didn't understand the india guy with respect..
Some people are saying that all the people interviewed already had money. While that's probably true and there is nothing wrong with that, i think it's more about the title being misleading. To me this is more of a "pokemon businesses and collectors share their stories and flex" which really isn't bad either. Anyone in their position would be proud of what they own. That being said, I think people want to hear a more inspiring story. And maybe the truth is those just don't exist (quite yet). Most people who got big in the last 5-6 years capitalized on the resurgence hype. An opportunity if you had already built up some cash you were really able to capitalize. When preparation meets opportunity!
It’s so easy before but now everyone and their dead grandparents know about Pokémon and trading card investing in general and are just hoarding sealed products.
1. be an adult 2. spend all your money on pokemon 3. pokemon is your life now nothing else matters. 4. be interesting = your now a pokemon millionaire.
Yea its people who know some business knowledge and upcharge their customers, while networking to raise the base value of cards, so they all profit and influence the market.
One thing the video does not tell you is that majority of these people already had a solid amount of disposable income which wedges you into a strong starting position into this hobby/business.
@@chosenone543 it's true, he is a family friend, all I know is that mommy and daddy are loaded/retired and are funding his hobby, he is not humble at all lol

My guy Dylan! Thank you for getting Bulbastore on the mic. So happy for him, he got me and many more back into the hobby. he def deserves his flowers.

Yep money goes to money. Rich daddy or rich husband for most.
Takes money to buy those packs.
@@Pompey_blue you forgot rich mommy or rich wife

Yes!
Coop is a great guy, I just met him and he gave me great deals at a local card convention. I'm the guy that got the base set blastoise psa7.
What goes around comes around that’s for sure!
Plenty...all money launderers
Amazing video and love how down to earth everyone is! 9:17 I’m super happy to have been apart of this ❤

14:15 so happy he mentioned this! Friends in the hobby is everything. Was great to meet the both of you at Card Party 🙌
Gonna be honest i thought Bulbastore was Mid 30s - Early 40s. I thought the guy i had seen at his table that looks like he's in his late teens was his son 😂
Same, not old in a bad way but gives off the vibe that he's been doing this for over a decade
RIGHT LMAO
same here. I thought he's mid 30s. maybe because he's awesome in making deals and doing quick maths
Weird. I always got the impression he was mid 20s.
Ya I thought he was like 35 😅
17:08 “we scam our customers and screw them for our benefit”
How?
It's not a scam if it is gambling with set odds, no one has to buy custom made packs, there is always risk you won't hit
Lolol
I was at the Orlando one for bulbasaur he had a line so long that some people wanted over an hour. Really cool, dude.

24:28 that tag 10 is the highest graded illustrator Pikachu? Isn’t it the psa 10 sold to Paul?
I sold my childhood collection. for about 1500 and started buying small lots and resell on ebay for about 2 years. then started conventions. iv only done 2 conventions and about to do my 3rd. Im going with around 70k worth of inventory. Its been a grind but i keep advancing and progressing each thing i do. It doesnt always take a rich person just someone who grinds constantly.
Can you tell me more about it? I'm seriously interested! I could leave my email adress in the comments :) let me know if you're down👍🏻
Your interview skills are great, keep polishing that talent and you’ll be a legend in your own right brother 💪

It’s still cheap card. Only $40 for sealed.
wish I could remember more of that movie...& whish I could remember what the card looked like 😊 good times though
Crazy how the illustrator pika was just there in person at the end 😅 great video!
If possible, could you explain how you use the Rollo printer in the Whatnot stream room. Is it for the person who ordered if so, could you show how to set that up and also go into OBS for Whatnot I believe a lot of people would love to see the background processes like that!
Deeppocket had the least amount of time but gave the best advice
18:35 Thats my son Ventura 💙 he was going to ask you for a autograph. But saw you were busy in a interview and him being kind knew it was not the best moment for that. Hopefully next time he sees you he will get it. 😊
I wouldn't bother asking mystic rips for an autograph. His character in the community is questionable to say the least.
@@thegapfiller what do you mean questionable?
great questions and vid. tnx for showing up on fyp :D

Inspiring and bringing other people back into the hobby! keep the content up!
Coops collection is my favorite content creator. He is such a genuinely sweet person and a great resource for the community
I wouldn't have the gull to try and start a business off pokemon cards, but I definitely respect those that can make it happen
Coops collection is by far the most generous channel I see! Props to him

All overpriced cheaper online
@@TravelPhillipinesnot always just depends on the vendors lol
Great video, awesome to know to know another side to some of these people with some helpful tips along the way! Thanks for the content
Your recent content has been Next Level, keep it going
I loved SuperDuperDani the most in this for some reason. Im subbed to all but shes always just so fun
just had a blast at my first ever collect a con. some of the vendors are great to talk to. also my first time doing pov recording for my channel
Love this. It's like Charlie Chung, but for Pokemon!!!
Inspiring content! Great work! Great people! Great advice! Thank you!
Great video, Mystic. It’s great to hear people’s perspective. Sorry that my daughter and I missed your meet and greet at Card Party 2.
I’ll see you all at the next one!
Appreciate your videos! Insightful, inspiring, and fun
lol you can tell Mystic isn’t listening at all when he’s just responding “super sick” to these people
How did you MAKE your money?

The lesson to take away here is, become successful and then quit your job and sell trading cards until you’ve hit your target.
