    The face John is making with the thumbs up was spot on for these pulls. It’s like he was trolling Mistie “good job babe, you got what you asked for 👍🏻!” lol. Happy to see another link in the chain removed, John will be home before we know it. I know he’s so proud of you Mistie for taking all this on by yourself and you are doing an amazing job! Love the content. I’ve never pulled the Tina or Aerodactyl (the big ones) and have opened so much LO. Hope all is well Pairfam. See ya on the next one 🫶🏻

    Getting burnt by an ETB definitely feels better when you have that level of encouragement coming from the standee. lol

    I'd only be comfortable buying directly from Amazon or the Pokemon Company on Amazon, any third party seller concerns me too much.

    Have been hit or miss from Amazon sellers, have received opened Twilight Masquerade Booster Bundles, loose cards inside Lost Origin sealed blisters, and resealed collection boxes… also have received dozens and dozens of factory sealed items. Kind of a mine field imo

    That Eternatus is badass! I’ve never seen that card either. I’ve opened one Lost Origin ETB and got absolutely nothing so kudos on the few pulls you had 🤙 I did crack and decided to open some of my Evolving Skies packs with my wife and daughter last night…but we ended up pulling a Jolteon Vmax, Flareon Vmax, Trevenant V and a Trevenant Vmax rainbow secret rare so it was most definitely worth it and we had a blast lol

    I don't buy random cards or even sealed product from random sellers online. I'll buy from certain streamers, or official websites that I trust. I might buy something from a different source, but only for a few bucks. Minimum risk. If they turn into decent supplier, then I'll make a larger risk and purchase as I go. Great video

    I always worry I'm potentially supporting a scalper when something isn't sold and shipped from the actual retailer. Scalping has gotten so outta hand recently that I haven't been able to buy a single pack of any set from my local big box stores for months, and it's only gonna get worse with Prismatic Evolutions 😬 I just hope these stores start imposing some kinda limits so people can't buy out pallets of products.
