Partner: Phurion
Yes, that Phurion! The one from the Halo 2 days who would put together montages! In the early 2020's, Phurion started doing Pokemon breaks on his Twitch channel. Since then, he has become an unstoppable force when it comes to all things Pokemon TCG collecting.
Perhaps one of his most incredible skills is how he can very effectively appraise a cards potential grade. Having seen hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of cards he brings an experience, and aptitude that is genuinely second to none.
His enthusiasm, quality of service, knowledge, and audible volume are unmatched. Seriously, don't turn up the volume too much, this guy yells. Out of excitement, of course.
Phurion offering grading on cards is initially what hooked me on the entire grading process. Without him, there would be no Slab Hound!
He streams 3 days a week, on Tuesday, Friday, and Sunday, Each Friday stream he holds a special themed night where any assortment of packs or boxes may be available. Offering everything from modern, to vintage, and in all sorts of languages, Phurion is nothing short of a staple in the Pokemon community.
Catch his stream here! Find his store, with exceptional prices, here. New packs, and boxes get posted before the start of each stream at 6 PT. Things sell out fast, so don't be late!
