Just ordered my POG hobby box. 📦 I used the link 🔗 will I receive the hat ? lol
Hey Kings Bounty is like a $40 game CIB :D
Happy 😊 Ricky’s or riff or Gabbo or Ben or Chris or Curtis ❤️♥️👍 Pixel games squad happy 😃 xxx
lol you went from 400 back down to 300 a few minutes into the mystery box at 10:43 you reset from 400+ to 300 so you had about 1000 in value
That's what I came to comment too!! Lol smh
@@tessa.robles.84I thought I heard that too 😂 he went from like $410 back down to $330 or something like that
I noticed that right away !
He wont make his money back regardless. Now he has to sell 100+ video games, which in all likely hood would take around 1-2 years so he can make a cool $50 profit maybe? Even staffing costs to ring up the sales will set him back.
The reason he bought the box tho is for the youtube content. He WILL profit because of this youtube video. Without the video tho, there would be no point to buying a mystery box ever. Every seller other than garage sale and small thrift store finds is selling for profit. So a mystery box will NEVER be profitable to buy for resale. Even the min value ones.
In my experience mystery boxes are usually a scam. It's stuff they can't get rid of so they box it up and move it onto the next person.
I agree I recently bought one. All the ones they auctioned off had at least 5 plus games. Cool right. Nope I did the buy now for 50 since all the other boxes where around 30. Should have bid on a lower box because I got 1 nes game for 50 plus taxes and shipping so like 64 for a $10 game lol. I guess you need to really read the ultra fine print on whatnot lol
@@davidfulmer5840 well you gotta keep in mind they’re only doing mystery boxes to make money so they’re either only giving some people profit or they’re a scam and giving out nothing using the mystery box as a cover lmao
The only time they aren't scams is when they're just cheap and say there are x amount of games, comics, cards, etc inside. Like a $10 mystery box gets you 50 comics or 5 NES games. At that point the margin per item is so low it doesn't really matter if it's all junk.
Have you seen mystic Ryan mystery box? Dude has received some gems. It’s all the luck of the draw
@@Piranha5150I have not but does he buy them anonymously, or do the sellers know they are sending to a UA-camr?
The math ain’t mathin
I played in the 1995 POG World Championship and even got a official POG made with my picture on it. I've been waiting for this moment my entire life.
that sounds depressing
Good luck, bro. Please reply later if you win the whole thing!
Lmfao Whatnot sellers educated everyone to not buy $1000 mystery boxes or any..
I think you undervalued a bit
Imagine finding a Stadium Events in that box 😂
Side note: Rick, I reckon the you undervalued a lot of those games dude
Dropped some of the money at one (400 something to 340) so I think it works out pretty close
This content is so good! I can't stop watching!
hahahahah you live and you learn...then the Jim Carrey insert got me. Well done lol
Mystery boxes always scary to buy
Still better than John Riggs $1k boxes 🤣
John rigs is a STRAIGHT scammer
120$ for pogs? Lol why
I didn’t even really get pogs back when they were popular. 😅
I’m sure this is going to hit other people right in the feels though.
Rick you sound like Millhouse when he said to Bart you remember alf he came back in pog form 😂
I was waiting for that clip to play
Just in case you were wondering, they make an adapter for your Nintendo play choice so that you can connect a Nintendo cartridge to it so that you can basically have additional games inside the cabinet.
I’d like to see a follow up on the PriceCharting breakdown of this mystery box. Genuinely curious what it all adds up to
Fun fact, Gamestop does train their employees on fake games and gives them told to check. The employee's that take those fake games in don't care or are too "busy" to check.
9:18 - Bartletoads! 😊
3:39 the customers in background are regulars they never turned around......there used to Rick's random out bursts of excitement 😂 😅
Haha loved the editing so much on this one))
The "mind blown" clip got me! I was actually laughing out loud. Yes, Im simple.
I wonder how many dumpsters will be filled with pogs..thanks Nekrogoblikon
Kings bounty is great! 💪🏿💪🏿💪🏿 And CIB is over $50
Will pogs be provided for tourney?
Fire that dude
6:55 bro that voice 😂
Do you remember Pogs? They're back in Pog form.
Pogs are not coming back I remember watching a video not long ago and they found an abandon place out of country that used to make pogs, but it was just left abandoned and the floor was litter with tons of pogs no one thought to grab them just eerie seeing a fun game back in the day!
I remember I had a Pog Milkcap maker so I could make my own custom Pogs back in the day.
Hey man, I'll take a spare Battletoads if you're wanting to let one of those go! 😂 I love that label!
I absolutely love pogs !!! I have a pretty cool collection !
How you tell stories is unmatched!
okay comment bot.
UA-cam got an Indian CEO and this place instantly became infested with p*rn bots
😂😂😂@@blastingoff
I agree
That whatnot was crazy! I was there! It was actually 2 second starts. I tried to bid on Magical Chase but I wasn’t ready 😅
I need more retro rick content!
At 2:54 & 2:55 What Happened to the dude walking behind Rick!?
The only mystery about mystery boxes is how much money you will lose
In the Netherlands, pogs were called flippos and you got them with a bag of Lays chips or what they were called back then Smith's
Lets be honest if you walk in the store you're not getting all those games for $200 when he got to that mark, your walking away with about 8 max haha 🤣
There was actually £1000 worth in there as his counting was off half way thru.. not the best stuff but the value is there and it's good inventory
Now try to spot fakes buying online, bad pictures, dark pictures, you name it. It's a minefield...
I played POGs so much in school you got my nostalgia going big time. I had to drop an order. 😅🎉❤
Love this channel
take the risk, reap the rewards. sometimes...(nice lunch box collection!)
Retro Rick using price charting to value the mystery box.
Retro Rick selling those games at double the price.
I still have my POGs...tempted to get a box and waste more money on stuff I don't need. :)
Rick, love your store and the channel. I sold my pogs last month, awww. Now I miss them. I hope I can visit your store one day. And returned so many fake, dirty, defective games to GameStop that when I kept returning all their junk they canceled my membership! I returned ever single game to the store I showed them. Didn't matter.
Pogs are the best.have series 2 and series 3 sealed boxes.👌
"These are from pogs unlimited and these are extremely limited" 😅 Good company name then 🤔
🎉 happy birthday to me! Thank for the video!
Happy birthday man
Also I think you said 300 twice so I think you can add 100 to your total and almost break even
@brodiedearden7872 thank you!
bro you got caughtup in the excitement. It happens to everyone. it could have been SO MUCH WORSE! don't beat yourself up over it.
‘’Emotional damage’’ lol😅😅☠️
Whatever you think a mystery box is worth, cut the price by 50% and that's what it's actually worth lol
You counted wrong and (in my opinion) undervalued a few things. I think you're at value easily
Pogs where awesome, I remember my friend had a pog maker and we made pogs out of a Playboy magazine, we threw all the pogs on our buddies porch, then waited/watched for his mom to come home to see her reaction when she picked them up…Priceless… the good ol days…. That hat is bada$$ btw!!!
This is the way
that jim carey clip won me over lmao
If you can buy all that, do a giveaway to the kids.wait, I forgot this guy doesn't do that type of thing. Bissness or not 😂😂
Those estimates for the games were...well they sure were prices I WISH they were so I can add some of them to my collection.
woah the youtuber who's being sponsored by them won in their mystery box, no wayyyyy !
I have about 110 NES games that price chart for around $1,600. Heck I would have sold them to him for his store for 900 shipped. 😂 Jeeze
Way more than $1k worth of games in there haha.
“He’s not an idiot he plays video games” LOL
You undervalued alot of those games lol
Rick! what is the biggest item you passed on buying and regret the most passing up on?
Maaaan, I remember having this super sick POG holder from the 90s. It was the Apollo 13 rocket that came from Hardee's, I think? It was a promotional from around the same time as the movie. Wish I still had that thing...
I believe that you got, as they say on Pixel Game Squad, waxed with that mystery box
$1000 for a big box of games? you could of bought a ps5 pro for that
I bet you they sent hi. The one with gold in it 😂
So sorry Rick on that mystery box. Not packed very well either. Could have been a flood of good stuff. Next time
@retrorick
I got a box. Can't wait for the hat! Hope I get a gold coin with just 1 box bought hopefully 🙏
Let's go pogs
You'd have been closer if you hadn't valued the super mario rpg stack at $50. I couldn't see the other 2 games, but Rpg and Mario world are easily $75 because a retail store isn't taking much off of rpg for that label. Got $100 in battletoads.
I only know what to look for, as i had pokemon gold as a kid at release. I had POG's, and Tazo's as a kid, god i miss the 90's, they were so good, but really hard to get!
Homie took way too long to decipher the real vs fake cart.
F in the Chat boys. pay respect.
im 38 years old and id say POGs have to be the dumbest thing from my childhood. that says a lot.
HOOOOOVER!!!!!! Legend
Love the content 👍🏼😎
And them pogs are so nostalgic
I haven't seen a pog since 1942.. Get these kids off my darn lawn!!!!
F off Rick. $120 bucks for that box? Come on man. Might as well sign up for Established Titles since you pushed that too with Riff.
Win lose or draw it’s at least shelf filler 😊
I want a Retro Rick Pog Slammer....
that whole box looked like nothing but commons
I just wanted to know what games Rick saw and got him to bid the mystery box up even, since he didn't seem excited about any of it
Absolutely the best video game/retro channel. The great humor in the editing, the quality of the filming, and the positive attitude of Rick and the team always put me in a good mood
Damm your new employee is oblivious
Actually they do train gamestop employees to tell repros. Great video though
I'm 39 so I feel like I should know what POGs are but I don't.
I'm waiting on my N64 to arrive and POGS would be perfect to start my room
So your telling me I should buy pokemon games from Aliexpress and sell them to Gamestop? Sounds good to me.
The joys of whatnot. I think we’ve all been burnt on there
Sorry Rick, it happens to the best of us
I’m sure this vid will make up the difference
Y'all know you can make your own Pogs at home. It's just a circular cutter blade on cardboard. I literally did it as a kid.
In my experience, what not mystery boxes are a scam.
Change the title and make it about POG's! That's huge news!
Oh man, that was a bad mystery box. Hope you get one better the next time
I played in a pog tournament outside of the 7-11 down the street from my house. I think I got 2nd place, I used to be decent at it
Ughhh I want a POG hobby box
