Nice venom pull can't say I'm not envious. Grats👍

I like the video. It's getting me hooked on collecting cards now again like when I was a kid. Makes me want to go out and get some cards, try to find some marble, or dc, and do some ripping. LOL. I don't have a computer and I can't afford those so you know........😁

Yeah, I’ve found some older sets that are still pretty affordable from the 90s that are a ton of fun to crack open.

So these art marvel metal cards? That's awesome

Yeah they are pretty sweet looking in person too. Scans online don’t do them justice

This almost seems more like gambling rather than collecting. The card collecting equivalent to pulling a one-armed bandit in a casino.

Yeah, if the goal is to make money it is definitely a gamble. If you are collecting then having a shot to just open a big ticket item is just icing on the cake

Those look nice, enjoying them through you. Are many of the singles of the physical cards easy to get? Like the Scarlet Witch. Also is their a checklist? Viz and Wanda are my long time favorites. When John Byrne did what he did in WCA I was pretty pissed at the time. Old time comic reader.

Yeah, you can pick up base set singles pretty inexpensively. I’d recommend the Facebook groups to get the best deals on the cards. Base set may run you $150 for 200 cards maybe a little less.

Oh man, I don’t think I’d ever spend money on virtual cards. If you have a valuable card I would 100% sell now while you can. But I enjoyed the content, just don’t know about long term collectibility.

It’s important to note that while they are opened virtually they are real cards. Once they are opened you can have them shipped to your home or sell directly from your online account

@@AlextheComicHoarder yeah, no I’m not into virtual collecting. I like to hold my collectibles, lol. Would prefer to open physical boxes personally but they are impossible to find for a decent price.

So on that special card, you're actually going to receive that one yourself right? And then you can do what you want with it right sell it auction it whatever? Or keep it?

Yeah, my buddy has it now and he is getting it sent to him so he can get it graded for his PC. CGC grades Marvel cards now and they look amazing

These are a cash grab - horrible, conditions on virtual to physical conversion etc. I mean you did pay an outrageous amount for the entire box only to have limitations on what can be shipped... hard pass. Good Luck with future openings.

I would rather crack physical but this is a nice alternative especially with physical boxes going for $600+ right now. The only cards that aren’t redeemable right out of the box are the most common cards in the set too so not a huge loss in value from the physical boxes.
