Videos

83 recordings from the channel, 70 of them long-form. Most are sealed-product openings — the raw material the documented-break service was built from. Recordings made while the business still bought and sold cards are kept as reference; the practice no longer sells. Every card links to YouTube.

Authentication and fakes (1)

How a card is checked before anyone calls it real: print pattern, text, colour, stock, weight and light. An authentication opinion states the method and shows the photographs; it is an opinion, not a guarantee.

Grading and pre-grade (14)

What grading companies look for and how a pre-grade assessment reads a card before you pay to submit it — centering measured, surface under raking light, corners and edges under magnification. An opinion of range, never a promise.

Documented breaks (67)

Sealed product opened on camera. In the practice these become documented breaks: continuous, timestamped video, every card sleeved as it is pulled, condition recorded as observed. The recordings here show the method the service is built on.
