Maybe don't use scissors like a psychopath and just tear it open like a normal person
Bet he never will again.
He may not be normal 🤷♂️
The Japanese packs are actually meant to be opened with scissors. They have an extra centimeter or so at the top, meant for cutting. But DEFINITELY make sure the cards are properly at the bottom of the pack lol
The positive side of this is, the remaining ones of this kind should be worth even more now, since there's one less around.
Watch the Jet Li movie “The One”—killing all the multiverse versions of himself to make himself better
But this one is serialized, if this is number 01 or something uff that is worth a lot of money
underrated comment. he should try to buy and destroy as many as possible to inflate the price.
$20K might be an over estimate now
Those are numbered and they exist only 100x in each language.
He’s cut that in half
The heart of the cards has left the chat
If it makes him feel any better it’s still worth nothing to me.
Got a good laugh out of me. Same, same
TCG are just as stupid as NFT change my mind
goddamn!!!!! if only this was avoidable..
It's really hard to avoid giving a monetary imaginative value to useless stuff in a capitalism world fueled by the good of consumerism and the fantasy of belong to. /s
He should have used a 20000$ industrial grade diamond scissors Does the company that Makes This won’t exchange Damaged Ones Like this? Maybe he could say it came Damaged like a factory cut

Lmao thanks for the laugh
Jesus I just heard this voice in my head after 20 years
This is perfect lol
You don’t need to say most rarest. Rarest is enough
"most rare" would also be correct.
But OP is a baby. That's how babies talk
Most importantest comment in this thread
Pretty sure this is faked…the Yugioh subreddit I want to say pointed that out
It’s not a random guy either, pretty prominent member in the Yugioh YouTube community just happens to pull a one of hundred card and ruins it conveniently on video?
It's almost as if he smashed his dad's 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California or something.
I've actually seen a 250 GTO crash; painful to witness.

Except that thing could at least get you from A to B. That stupid piece of paper? It does nothing. At all. It did freak this fool out, so there's that.

What part of this isn't believable though? That looks like a genuine serialized card to me. And people are 100% stupid enough to cut card packs open; I've seen it personally dozens of times.
Damn and I thought the small dent in my 1st edition blue eyes toon dragon was bad.... this is heart breaking.
Do you really feel that emotion?! Like devastated by this video?! I’m not even trying to be a jerk, I sincerely want to know how this makes you feel?
He should cut it some more to even it out lol.
These card games are the dumbest shit ever. $20k for a little piece of cardboard? GTFO
I can understand (kinda) people spending money on handmade luxury products and all, but it's just industrial printed cardboard pieces lmfao
And people mocked NFTs. As if that shit is any less ridiculous.
It's not even cool artwork like Magic The Gathering.
it only matters if he wants to sell it. Otherwise it's fine and should still have the same sentimental value. If he did intend to sell it, surely he should have been a little more careful.
Makes me think it's all fake.
These days like 99% of every trading card pack being opened are looking for rare cards to sell. 20 years ago there was way less of a market for these rare cards and people just played with the damn cards like they were supposed to
It’s time to c-c-c-cccry!
Valued at $20k to the idiot that would pay that for a card.
You'd be surprised people with loads of money would buy expensive useless stuff.
Dude, a Pokemon card recently sold for $16.5 million. $20k is inexpensive by comparison.
 These trading cards are out of hand. It’s all adults and zero children.
I love watching degenerate gamblers have a bad day
I don’t know the guy but would you consider him a degenerate gambler if he were genuinely pulling the cards to play them?
That's why you don't use sharp objects to open packs. It's called "ripping packs " or " tearing packs" for a reason. Hopefully he learned a valuable lesson.
I value this lesson at about $20k.
yeah but he's a dumbass... usually they're wrapped tightly anyway so you have to rip it open... prolly thinking he was smart enough to open it with scissors....
Bet he doesn’t do that again
So how much is it worth now? I'd be happy with even 1/10th of that value
You’d be haunted by the idea of the other 9/10ths.
People who cut card packs open with scissors deserve what they get.
as much as that sucks its still out of 100 copies, its a numbered cards and im 100% certain the price docked wouldnt be insane but you definitely aint getting it for NM prices sadly lol The funny part is yugioh are so easy to open without scissors LOL
Yeah in the video I watched about this set (don't play but a big fan of Cimo and his collabs with other card gamers) they have little pull tabs to prevent this type of thing?
And he got so upset, he left his parent's basement for the first time in decades.
I'm in japan right now on vacation, and I've seen it as low as 15,000 yen to 48,000 at the local card shops. Roughly about $110 to $330 dollars. The card is currently selling around $40 in the US since yugioh isn't as big.
The card in the video is the serialized version which can reach between $15k to $20k
It's also 1 of 1 now
I mean it's a bit his fault too, beside He cut it. Could have put in a Cover or smth
$20k for a piece of cardboard is wild
Can someone explain how this is a rare card? These cards are printed on industrial printing machines at some printing factory. All the tooling and digital files or whatever are there and infinitely more can be printed.
Its done on purpose so people keep buying them hoping for the rare one. Its all a money thing and people fall for it.
I have to believe this is fake. How could someone simultaneously possess the knowledge that a particular piece of cardboard could be worth that much money, and also lack the knowledge needed to avoid whatever supposedly happened here?
He cut the package open instead of tearing the wrapper like a normal person.
So fucking stupid that people pay lots of money for these little silly cards with manufactured rarity
This fucking Nerd needs to get a life.
Agreed. What in the world? A card worth $20k? Why? What function does it serve? Blows my mind.
"most rarest" Jesus Christ OP how did you pass 3rd grade English?
Use a razor to trim the top flush. Claim it's a miniscule off center printing error ... now it's worth 200k.
A better headline might be : Grown man still playing with yugioh cards.
God forbid people have hobbies
Im glad these resellers are getting thier comeuppance they are scum
Why would you cut open a pack That you can rip Open lol
Solution: put it in an art frame with a white spacer that barely covers the border of the card, then make the glass hard to open and invent that the card is in there because that's a nitrogen filled container so it doesn't catch humidity and doesn't degrade with time... Then, ...
But no.. trading card games are totally not gambling. /s
What a man baby, sell it at reduced price and get on with your life. Dude's probably a scalper.
yeah but that doesn’t let him draw 2 cards so how good can it really be
Good, can we kill the adults ruin a game for children market now please? Please please please? The whole thing is so sad
sorry for being a dumbass, but can't the brand just print them? this rarest card trick sounds like an NFT to me.
Yes its manufactured rarity people pay big bucks for. They could literally press 2 buttons and flood the market with millions of those cards, making them worthless.
Now it’s worth $19,900
Just classify it as a miscut and it’s worth $40,000 now!
Yeah, but now it's even more unique
Controversial opinion: Applying enormous financial value, based on the intrinsic value of a bit of shiny card that is only rare due to artificial scarcity (they could absolutely print thousands more if they decided) is a sign of mental illness and of what's morally wrongl wit...
Calling this guy a "man" is being too generous. That's a very large child.
People who use blades or scissors to open their boosters... Smh
If you are serious about cards, how does one make such a mistake?
As someone who collects yugioh? That card is NOT worth 20k lmao Not even close
How much is it worth?
Hahah fucking man child. Love to see it.
Whoever created these cards and convinced these man-children that they have any value is a freakin genius.
Yeah it’s basically worth whatever a piece of shiny cardboard goes for at the local recycling center now ngl
I feel uncomfortable opening boxes with knives cause I don't want to stab what's inside How do you do this accidentally??
NERD
trading cards - the OG classic vintage NFT
Cardboard is always a really good investment.
imagine crying about a cardboard playing card 🤣
How about stop using scissors to open a pack of cards there, baby grip.
😬😬😬😬
Nothing of value was lost
this does spark joy
This is why you don't cut the packs dumbass
"Ill give you this for 20k." "Uhh, can you take a little off the top? That's a bit expensive." "Oh, odd, but okay."
Well who is paying 20K for cards? Seriously
it's just a card. I get it, it's valuable to you ,but move on bro.
100% preventable
I can fix this like new and no way to tell for the low price of $15,000
Cards are for kids
it looks like consequences of his own actions have caught up to him yet again
That's why you don't cut the packs open, you fucking idiot.
adult child?
Reacting this way is so embarrassing
How the hell did you even do that?
I like that his friend shot video of this and uploaded it to social media.
Lol poor chap
I'm alwayd happy to see yugioh players sad and punished for gambling.
LMAO
Putting that much value on anything that material is idiotic.
grown ass man crying about some paper cards
Grown man upset about brightly colored cardboard.
And that's why I don't use scissors
if he's that careless, he deserves it. I have never even come close to cutting my cards when opening them. its just stupid to be that casual with something that is designed to cut paper.
😂
Even the cat has his doubts on his estimations as a man.
My estimation of OP as a man just plummeted
Grow up and stop playing with toys too
Easy, just hold it with your thumb over the cut when showing it to potential buyers. Works everytime.
Still worth about 19 n' change. Hell I'll even throw in the bonus sliver for free
YOU’LL NEVER SEE THIS ONE COMING!
I just recently watched a video about this set. I don't play Yu Gi Oh but they have an insanely complicated rarity system so it's hard to say if this is one of the ones that is super valuable, the exact same card could have a slightly different holo pattern and suddenly it's w...
So what is the value now?
Poor cat.
Hahaha so good it made my day xD Next time before cutting pussh all the card down slighty to have more space where you going to cut. Hahahaha this is so good xD
*$19,999
Why is he cutting packs open with something can also cut the card. If this was posted, and i were in his shoes. I would try to get a replacement. So he fucked up a lot here.
Now it's a 1 of 1. Ultra rare
But it looks like he only cut like 2% of the card. $19,600 is still a lot of money.
AI SLOP
Well, that's what happens when you put too much of your savings into flimsy cardboard. at least precious metals will always be metal if they get dinged or scratched.
Didn't affect most of the card, does the value drop that much? Shouldn't be less than 10k still
Bwahahahahahahahahahaha!
This guy gonna be depressed for the next years
Eh someone will still pay 50-65% of the card value.
I get that people are into card collecting but I can't understand how any card is worth more than the cardboard it's printed on. Blows my mind that people are actually willing to spend real money on basically nothing.
Anyone have a translation of what hes saying? 😂
And how could you have done that?
There's not enough grass...
I like how his girlfriend is just quietly documenting the damage lol
Pray for that poor cat.
How did that happen ?
this hurts to watch lmao
Oh well, can't miss the money you never had. Lesson learned hopefully
All cardboard and idiots wasting their money
That card is only like a month old, it is not valued at $20k.The price peaks about $250 right now.
Yugioh no!
All these collectors / scalpers going to sell these super expensive cards to who? They're all hording these special cards waiting for the Ultimate Card Master to decent from space and buy all their cards lol. Giant scam perpetuated by the card makers. People sit on these col...
The prick cut a fake card for engagement.
Don't become a person like this. Be more like the cat.
Believe me, he’s got more than $20,000 into this shit already. It’s like when idiots win at those slot machines at the bar, you go oh man great job. And the bartender says “that might just break him even for today.”
 The cat
Who uses scissors to cut open packs?
In nerd fantasy land. It's worth 50 cents in reality.
They reprint you gi oh cards like yearly there are no rare cards lmfao
Who the fuck uses scissors to cut open a pack of cards? He was asking for this situation to happen.
Even when cut, it's still worth thousands of dollars. Yeah, whoops. But like would someone who collects these things really care that much as long as they have one of the rarest cards in the franchise? Like it's like owning a T206 Honus Wagner card and being like, "Wah! The c...
Someone would seriously pay 20k for a new card?
why did he have to use scissors or knife?
I'm so glad I stay out of these Hobbies
This really made me happy
These cards are a nuisance to the society.
This is exactly why I don't use scissors to open my packs. I just light them on fire like a normal person, and just blow it out when the wrapping is all gone.
Glad the girlfriend had the presence of mind to whip her phone out and record him in agony and share it with the world.
Cut it straight, so it’s even across the top, then claim it’s a misprint (off center) making it super rare. Problem solved.
The poor cat.
There is more to life than a piece of paper. 
Who even cuts card packs open?
… but how did it get cut?
