    Yea, I agree. I wouldn't have said a word about the Dragon Ball game or any of the rest of it. It's not our job as game hunters and full time resellers to educate those from whom we're buying from on prices of games. Everyone has access to the internet on their phones these days and can easily look up sold prices. If they don't want to do their due diligence, I'm not going to do it for them.

If they don't want to take the time to look up sold prices, I'm damn sure not gonna tell them. The main goal of a full time reseller is to get AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE, for AS CHEAP AS POSSIBLE, in order to MAKE AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE! Money > Games!

    Very true listening to a Daily Refinement video he did mention that building those relationships is a good thing because they will go, "ok you have helped me get some good business I'll give you first crack at items as a way of saying thanks or anytime I get a lot of this brand I'll hit you up for first looks" so yes you ate crazy Caleb but honest and you will be rewarded.

    Especially with ps1 or nintendo discs, if you are worried about them not working, I would take a quick second to hold the disc up to a light, ceiling lights are fine, just make sue the label faces the light, and if any light is coming through in a major way, the disc wont work. a couple pin pricks are only a minor issue though.

    Both the DBZ Tenkaichi 3 PS2 Version and Psychonauts are a HUGE find. Both games are pretty rare. Tenkaichi 3 is probably my most played PS2 game it still stands up today as the best DBZ game imo. No doubt. Don't play the Wii version lol.

    Phoenix, thank you for the entertaining and educational videos!
    Question to resellers: I just started this week flipping games to help in paying off my student loans :) When buying games, do you test each one before selling it, or do you just trust the person you bought it from when they say it works. I have most Nintendo and Xbox console just from over the years, but PlayStation, I don't have. It feels like half the inventory I could have I couldn't verify it works. Thoughts?
    Thanks guys!

    You can fix scratched games pretty easily. Especially if they are the ones with the high value. You need some weak sand paper with a car polish bottle. Makes your discs look almost like new and definitely add more value to them. I have a big collection myself and some needed repair.

  • @thecitizen6860

    @MandingoClown 2 роки тому

    Good morning Mr. Phoenix, I'm brand new to watching your channel. I really enjoy the concept and the "science" behind what you're doing. Do you have a particular genre of games you are after, or are you just after anything that is rare? You can just send me a link to a video that addresses this question if it's already been asked, I would appreciate that. I'm mainly curious because this year I started collecting "Disney Infinity" figures, and I've discovered that there are basically 4 items that would be considered "Grails" in the Disney Infinity world. The D23 variant of Sorcerer's Apprentice Mickey Mouse, the D23 King Mickey Power Disc and then the next 2, (which might not be as expensive/rare), are the Gravity Falls Power Discs and then Black Suit Spiderman. It would be awesome watching you go through the process of looking for a good deal on these. Have a great weekend and thank you for the awesome content! Keep it up brother!
