I watched some of that guy Rattle Pokemon's videos. I found it pretty interesting. Logan Paul is just the dimwitted end victim of a high money scam, and he is also the least interesting part of the drama. Rattle Pokemon had been shooting holes in the authenticity of the box for weeks, was running circles around the supposed "experts" at BBCE, and really showed how big a den of thieves there are on the margins of the collector communities.

i definitely think it's staged, and i don't get why people think it's not. he's just doing standard YouTuber bullshit and with insane clickbait titles and outrageous premises.

while i do think Logan's a douchebag, he does seem to be more intelligent and self-aware than many people realize. he is by no means smart, but if you look at his attitude pre-suicide forest drama compared to now, there's a striking difference. if i recall correctly when it was mentioned on a podcast a while ago, he looked genuinely uncomfortable and ashamed while discussing it. he's definitely got more going on upstairs than his brother.

he's just playing the clickbait YouTuber game. which is still fucking retarded, but this is getting attention and clicks. hell, i bet he knows people will spread it because "haha karma!!!!1!". he's undoubtedly a fag but he sure as hell knows how to get views.

Because the BBCE has been around for over 30 years and there is no way they would willingly destroy the reputation of their very profitable business just so Logan Paul can make a video. People have been tracking these Pokémon cards and talking about BBCE’s bad analysis of them for longer than Logan Paul has even known about them. If there is any sort of grift going on here it’s that Logan might have already been aware that they were probably fake before buying them, but that doesn’t make the situation itself and its fallout on BBCE’s reputation any less real.

Why are there so many retards on KF these days?

I wish I could join in with the whole "lol get fucked" train but $3.5 million is probably what Logan makes in a month at worst.

This is one of those situations that need to be put in perspective. Granted we know he was refunded but regardless;
Say you make 50k a year and you lose a month, 5k. Thats significant money, its not just about it being 10% of your take. Your take is only barely enough to afford a roof, food, etc... 3.5m even if it were 90% of what Paul makes in a year, he would still be left over with 300k (quik maths). Thats still significant money, not to mention the argument of having a pricier lifestyle, he could liquidate and have nothing to worry about for years (unless he is a complete moron and carries exorbitant debt).
The fact that he has 3.5m on hand to spend means losing 3.5m overall means nothing. It stings in just the sound of it, but it will barely blip his budget even if the money was really gone.

I wonder how many of these big influencers are gonna be broke within this decade. He’s loaded as hell, but money has a nasty tendency to vanish when you’re a peabrain.

Realistically, probably almost all of them. They live a lifestyle which requires constant income, and most of them aren't particularly smart with their money or actively invest it. Plus the lifespan of an "influencer" is way less than a decade most of the time. There's always a newer, younger one right around the corner. Just look at how many pro athletes go broke shortly after retirement.

Logan got scammed out of $3.5 million on some rare Pokémon cards:

The box was gutted and refilled with GI Joe cards. A company that specializes in reviewing vintage trading cards, the Baseball Card Exchange (BBCE), was initially brought in some time ago to verify if the boxes seemed legit, which they believed to be the case at the time. Though after further speculation, they opened the box to reveal the contents being a total sham.



Unsurprisingly, the BBCE's reputation took a massive hit from this massive blunder. It's a really bad look to say the least, considering their business was all about verifying expensive cards for collectors to purchase.
They tried to address the fallout on Twitter, though it hasn't gone over very well, considering various Pokémon nerds debunked the box's authenticity from their own rooms while an "expert" miserably failed to verify it in-person:

Assuming this was the same guy, Logan's "card dealer" has been called out in the past for being super sketchy with some of the deals he's made in the past. This was not the first time this guy has sold a tampered box to some interested collectors.

I recommend reading through this short thread from last year for some additional context:

I bet he made his money back from ad revenue and merch sales already.

I just see this as hilarious. Didn't his shitheel brother scam their retard fans into going to those 'gambling sites' by pretending they won huge prizes? Some of the 'prizes' were sports cars and a goddamn house.

I’d like to think he weighed the cost of the cards versus how much revenue the unwrapping videos would make but who knows, he’ll get a lot of free publicity from this (Currently top trending video on YouTube) so even if he doesn’t get any money back he’ll still get something out of it.

To be honest I’m so skeptical of these predatory e-celebs I wouldn’t put it past Logan Paul to just fake the whole thing.

Anyway it’s so dumb that kids toys are what‘s trendy and the target demographic are basically priced out the market by scalpers and collectors if anything worthwhile comes out.

Jebaited.

I'd also like to credit Logan Paul for the Pokemon gold rush because the moment the video of him purchasing these cards was uploaded, this whipped the public up to a frenzy. Cards stolen from stores and then held at ridiculous prices online. McDonalds literally looted for their entire boxes of merchandise and resold. Stock being bought within seconds of it being dropped. Hoarded in warehouses because of supply and demand. People camping outside of stores just for Pokemon cards.

I've genuinely never seen a pandemic in the card-collecting world since a big name like his publically fucked everything up. It's kind of funny in the end to see it was all fake.

It's going to be like those 80s rock stars that spent it all on hookers and blow so they had no shelter money to save them from the grunge storm.

both of them(and lots of other influencers with children fan bases) have been pushing various scams for years, they get a huge payout to promote whatever scam du jour, it goes bust, repeat. when your audience is children and retards you can do this a lot apparently. it wasn't until just recently they started to add the #ad hashtag to their pump and dump advertisements, but even when marked #ad impressionable children and retards no doubt still fall for said scams.

i think his most recent pump and dump netted him 40 ether which is like 100k+
