This is going to sound stupid, but its almost sickening to me how the kid is handling those packs and cards.

 

[nyc3]

The way he handles cards is manic. I dont think one card made it out of the break undamaged.

 

[wolfmanalfredo]

Then he rubs the autograph? Sneezes on his hands then goes directly back to packs

I can't believe the guy was throwing it around like that. If that were me, I would have said to hell with the video break and put that puppy in some sort of protection.

I'd hate to see what the harper looks like after he's done with it......Nice pull, worth the $109 he way overpaid for the box though

 

[tikitomoka]

that whole video just kind of pisses me off. kids in the hobby are great and all, but i can pretty much guarantee the only reason he wanted that box was for anything harper related. and the way he handles all of them is just sad.

 

[Jaypers]

This isn't real life, kid.

I love how kids that young are into nothing but the value already. Shame. And that language at his age.

There goes your future voter.

that's what happens when they watch youtube breaks all day and try to be like the adults that do them. the discovery of youtube, ebay, and forums have destroyed the "hobby" as a hobby for kids (not saying right or wrong, just saying in general).

To be fair, I didn't always treat my cards with the greatest care when I was a kid either. I spread them over the grass, on top of dirt, on the kitchen floor, wrapped them up in rubber bands, etc. etc LOL. I think the difference is that this kid probably doesn't appreciate cards... he probably learned not to appreciate cards from an adult.

Edit: I should give the kid credit for at least looking at the common cards though.

 

[jlecates]

What a spaz...and that was before the Harper was pulled. The hell with weed - kids lay off the caffeine and sugar.

 

[Messier2]

I also loved when he said it's numbered "1 out of 37"! Then he flipped it around and saw 5/5!!!

Haha yea, I've had some decent pulls in my life, but can never remember getting that excited about a card. Normally its like, "Nice." Then I move on

on the flipside, though, i doubt you were dealing with several thousand dollar cards either. its a little different now than it was then from mass production, ebay, etc. as well.

Was this the last one that was not accounted for? ie, have all the reds been pulled now?

I'm sure a kid like this before youtube pulled the Longoria super and stuffed it away with his magic and pokemon cards, and the card is stuck in his shoebox in some abandoned storge unit cause his parents split and we'll see it unearthed in storage wars one of these days.

Yes, they're all red Harper autos have been pulled.

 

[Messier2]

I can also imagine the offers he is getting on youtube...$1000...maybe...$1K is A LOT of money for a kid...unscrupulus people out there looking to rip him off I'm sure... :benson:

Why should a kid care, or for that matter, why should I care about value? They're cards.

Or are you saying a kid should be interested in gambling...?

Does him sneezing on his hands and rubbing the auto make it a 1/1?
