As an amateur yugioh fan, thank you for explaining what to look for in scam boxes. It’s such a shame that people would do something like this, but enlightening people is the best way to prevent this from happening more in the future. Love the content and good luck on your future pulls!
I wish they would do a second gold series haunted mine. Even if the ghost rares aren't as special as others they were so cool to see. Good to see you are exposing these potential scams.
Greatly appreciate the videos!!! Especially when they give good advice. I’ve got some 2005 tins I purchased some years ago and ever time I hear about scammers I just pray I didn’t get scammed.
The reseal of this box looks very similar to reseals in video games. It looks more like someone made that seal as opposed to a factory seal. The texture of the plastic too can be different. It feels more rigid compared to the original one, which the original one feels more soft.
Happy to see one more box of sus out of the marketplace, and happy it sounds like you're not going to have to take a big financial L from this. The big tell for me was the seam on one front and one side. Most mass manufacturing with automated sealing is pushing things through a tube of material in a line with a seal bar dropping as they go through so they're going to be on opposite sides of a box.
I bought a jotl special edition those ones in the longer box and it wasn't wrapped sitting on the shelf but I didn't realize it and bought it and all the packs were gone and all was left was the promo, paid 30$ for a sylvan peaskeeper
Yeah that box looked suspicious compared to the other 2, but I guess most people (including me) couldn't tell if it was real or resealed. Thanks for showing us how to see the hints, that was a valuable lesson!
Good Eye Rodney, Nice catch on the reseal. The thing about the box that looked sketch to me was the top already looked unperforated if that's a word. The top looked open inside the plastic. AND TO THE SHADOW REALM FOR ALL YUGISCAMMERS
Oh no you hate to see anyone get scammed by resealed products but pointing out the things to look out for to the community is very much appreciated hope you got your money back
I bought a box of this back in 2002. If only I knew how good solemn judgment was when I was 11. Congrats on the Invisalign. I’m hoping to get fitted next year.
Does this happen with Modern boxes? Cause I opened a box of Tactical Masters that had packs that were hard to open, and the seal felt tight. This sucks man. I hate seeing people get scammed like that
Whatnot stream was great! Bought a signed Slifer to add to my collection cause your my favorite UA-camr and ended up winning the SDK blue eyes giveaway to add to my deck!(first time ever winning a giveaway) ❤
I only watched this out of morbid curiosity! I'm glad I took the time to, I shall have to remember these notes, though, I have bought a fair few 2022 Tins lately and have noticed everything you pointed out about the wrapping, at least now I know it is a conscious decision made by Konami, I can be vigilant now, especially with my 7 year old nephew getting into the game! He has autism and loves a lot of the artwork, especially the Fiend Monsters, he has a Playset of the recent Dark World Structure Deck - at my recommendation - and based on how he took some of the lower Rarities, I jus said "if you liked that, then, ooh, boy, you are going to LOVE some of the higher Rarities! And some about equal Rarity as well"! He hasn't seen a Ghost Rare yet!
The Harpy Lady you pulled is worth at least 25.00 for 1st ed near mint, just had to point it out on tcgplayer look up harpie lady original artwork and there you go ^^
I'm not sure how you decide to open random packs like you did near the end of the video, but you should get a box and throw a whole bunch of loose/random packs in there so if you're not sure what to open as a video goes on, you can reach in and grab a random pack
Nothing a dispute with the credit company won’t resolve. Always open the package on camera and record the entire process. Then you’re guaranteed a refund too. But Chase for me has been great in case I need them for situations like this.

Dang brother. I hate getting scammed but also seeing other honest people getting the same fate.
He said that he didn’t pay for it, so he didn’t get scammed
I’m sick and tired of scammers these people keep ruining this space. I appreciate all your videos you so such a great job. ❤
What a relief to hear you didn’t have to pay for that garbage! Everyone deserves better than that. Terrible to see people are still doing this
For those in the UK his whatnot stream is at 11pm. Gonna be a late one for us across the pond.
I wish they would do a second gold series haunted mine. Even if the ghost rares aren't as special as others they were so cool to see.
Good to see you are exposing these potential scams.
Getting scammed makes me sick! This is so unlucky!
Rev and Rux both with the Scam videos today. Glad they continue to shine a light on this! Really sad that others ruin the hobby doing this
Judging from the title, the MRD box is a scam. But at least it should have a petit moth. Sad thing to see these resealed boxes every time
Greatly appreciate the videos!!! Especially when they give good advice. I’ve got some 2005 tins I purchased some years ago and ever time I hear about scammers I just pray I didn’t get scammed.
Thanks for the insight on the difference between resealed and sealed boxes
Thanks for these cool videos man, totally binge watching them🔥
Would be nice to hear about whats happening now, did you message the seller, do you get your money back etc…
But if you buy cards lightly played you dont get the sharpie star on the back the seller puts to remind you that the card is near mint.
So when you say "wavey" what does it look like? I tried to see the difference from what you showed but it looked like a regular one to me.
Unless it's pack fresh I pretty much list all my cards at LP. I'd rather under promise and over deliver.
Love that ghost black winged dragon! Looks so clean!!!
Dope vid bro!! 👌🏼
I did invisalign last year too and the results are amazing in a few months time. Much better than regular braces.
Are we getting a new ghost set?

My guess is that its resealed just my gut feeling lol
where do you buy these boxes?

Funny watching Ruxin chuckle about pulling that “wavy” soul exchange like he just came up meanwhile the editor posted 25 cents on the screen. Lol
I bought a jotl special edition those ones in the longer box and it wasn't wrapped sitting on the shelf but I didn't realize it and bought it and all the packs were gone and all was left was the promo, paid 30$ for a sylvan peaskeeper

Thanks for showing us how to see the hints, that was a valuable lesson!
Glad you found out before the livestream and you didn’t get scam. Let the community know about the seller so we didn’t buy from them and report it.
Where did you get this box from that way we can avoid buying from the resealer
Really great video, especially highlighting LP cards at the beginning of the video.
Good Eye Rodney, Nice catch on the reseal. The thing about the box that looked sketch to me was the top already looked unperforated if that's a word. The top looked open inside the plastic. AND TO THE SHADOW REALM FOR ALL YUGISCAMMERS
Wow, that's tough to tell, but I guess the seal + imbalance in the box made it a quite possible resale.
Oh no you hate to see anyone get scammed by resealed products but pointing out the things to look out for to the community is very much appreciated hope you got your money back
wait.. is petit moth actually rare? or is this a meme? lol. cuz i looked it up and it isnt selling for much or anything
Looked resealed for sure! Nice vid ruxin!
I bought a box of this back in 2002. If only I knew how good solemn judgment was when I was 11. Congrats on the Invisalign. I’m hoping to get fitted next year.
In love with the 5DS ghost rares! See you tonight on Whatnot.
7:58 what moth card do you mean and why is it so rare? Or is it a joke with larvae moth?
Very interesting information on how to detect these scam boxes, keep the videos coming!
you re not gonna do the pack trick?
Damn that box sucks but Im glad you took it well
Does this happen with Modern boxes? Cause I opened a box of Tactical Masters that had packs that were hard to open, and the seal felt tight.
This sucks man. I hate seeing people get scammed like that
I would say the 3rd one is resealed. The wraps are too thin and i think that wraps are supposed to be in only two sides
Curious about the full story behind this box
Whatnot stream was great! Bought a signed Slifer to add to my collection cause your my favorite UA-camr and ended up winning the SDK blue eyes giveaway to add to my deck!(first time ever winning a giveaway) ❤
These people should be in jail
5:32 "let me know in the comments, no cheating, if you think this is a scam"
Video title: "Opening a 1st edition SCAM box"
😂
Holy, they're getting crazy with these reseals.
Dang we hate to see the scam glad you didn't have to pay! Love that they at least left one foil in for you!
Man even the common cards are nostalgic to me. Love your videos!
Always enjoy these videos
Ready for the whatnot stream!
That stack of boxes behind you is giving me anxiety. Please straighten them up haha
Good thing you caught this now!
so do you get a refund in these situations?
I only watched this out of morbid curiosity! I'm glad I took the time to, I shall have to remember these notes, though, I have bought a fair few 2022 Tins lately and have noticed everything you pointed out about the wrapping, at least now I know it is a conscious decision made by Konami, I can be vigilant now, especially with my 7 year old nephew getting into the game!

When I saw "Masked Hero Blast" I knew they weren't even trying
its crazy these scams are looking better and better
Was interesting to hear and see your advice on spotting this kind of scam
Perfect Warm up video for the stream tonight. Cant wait :)
it sucks that people do things like that, but at least you didn't lose money, now this video helped me to know when a box is authentic!
I thought Invisalign was just a molding . Those look like braces with the rubber bands
Ruxin: "Let us know in the comments without cheating"
*Me, clicking the video because of the title*:
The Harpy Lady you pulled is worth at least 25.00 for 1st ed near mint, just had to point it out on tcgplayer look up harpie lady original artwork and there you go ^^
I remember pulling a Masked Hero Goka from Metal raiders in 1st grade. I still have it❤
Highlight of the video - Ghost rare of the beginning:D pretty sick dude lol
Glad that you took precautions
This is crazy, gald you noticed and made a video for us
Sucks it was resealed but good things to keep an eye out for when buying older boxes.
Really enjoy the vid nonetheless. Super important for new buyers to see stuff like this!
Sick of scammers... thanks for posting and definitely good reference for others in the future!
Great showcase vid to help everyone out there.
Man this is heartbreaking to see a resealed box, but thanks for covering this in a video
Did you get a refund?
GOD THAT SLIFER 🤩 would adore this because I’m really tryin to improve my Japanese collection. Regardless, keep killing it!
I don't think I'll ever be able to afford a 1st ed old school box, but great info here.
Beautiful set! Scammers/frauds are the worst. Hurts the hobby.
The sealing and comditon of the box look very strange....i fell, hopping that not, the box is resealed, i'm sorry if yes
It's pain to see a resealed box but at least your content is very informative. Thanks rux!
I'm not sure how you decide to open random packs like you did near the end of the video, but you should get a box and throw a whole bunch of loose/random packs in there so if you're not sure what to open as a video goes on, you can reach in and grab a random pack
Always scary buying old sealed product
The invisiline looks good ! Super jealous.
i think its resealed because its heavy to come to good displays first ed
Oh nooooo, I was excited for the pulls on this one too
i dont have any experience with those scams, so i realy cant tell if something is resealed or not
Box looks funny to me, btw I love this set...
Yooo that's wild you have very amazing fake box sniff out super powers lol....experience is everything right Rux?
Me and my boys used to all grab first edition boxes way back crack en all build decks and play with no sleeves lol
Imagine being upset you got two Psy-Framegear Gamma from one pack of Metal Raiders.
scammers are out there super heavy, personally its sometimes hard for me to tell whats fake and whats not specially on higher end products and cards.
Nothing a dispute with the credit company won’t resolve. Always open the package on camera and record the entire process. Then you’re guaranteed a refund too. But Chase for me has been great in case I need them for situations like this.
Did you report the seller?
After watching the video, i can confirm the box is resealed 😂
It's resealed
Being scammed sucks so much... Thank you for sacrificing yourself for us 😭
Let’s go love MRD
I got scammed one in ghosts of the past before, not great. Heres to your good openings in the future.
Hate the scammers. Thanks for the very appreciate info!
Honestly is so painful to see that scammers doing staff like that 😡😡
Can’t wait for the bulk booster boxes to drop in a month or so!
