I know!!! Such a bad habit of mine! The guy even told me to check the cases whomp! The good thing about this one, I would have taken the cases regardless just to get more GameCube cases and/or hold for finding the loose game. But I really need to check the cases!!
You probably overpaid a little on that X-box one stuff - but grabbing the red Wii bundle was a smart choice. I think as time goes on that may only continue to get pricier and pricier.
@@ElDabstroyero It will once Xbox game Pass is more overpriced, some game files are massive around over 100gb of data. that's why they are deleting and delisting games. The ones that are going up in price are Xbox OG and 360 as the Xbox Store will be deleting to make space for Xbox One games.
@@ElDabstroyero Also if your going to collect Xbox one games check to see if the data is on the disc, because some games are not fully on the disc.That means people who play offline won't collect those.
I think it really depends on where you are because that one is the first one I’ve ever seen out thrifting. Plus, there are degrees of rarity, is it as rare as Go Go Hypergrind? No,, but it’s definitely more rare than uncommon titles I would think. Either way, like you said a really, good pick up! :-)
You found some good stuff, but im always thrown for a loop with certain collectors. I am closing in on 1500 games but im always selective on getting games I will actually play. So its always odd to me when i see vids of people picking up bass fishing or wii pets. Like no shade or hate but it always feels like buying up everything is borderline hoarding. I can't help but think of all the money you could've saved towards other things if you werent picking up shovelware/old sports games or even just save on shelf space for quality games...again no shade or hate.
I agree. As someone who used to pick up anything I didn't have, I eventually ran out of room. I'm left now slowly selling the games and things I will never play. It's a ton of work, and can be overwhelming.
@ryandann9362 yeah I always will go for quality over quanity. I just can never see a situation where you wake up like "I want to play some madden 2003" or "I'm really in the mood for truck racer." worst is most gamestores won't check it so it feels like you are just holding onto trash
I totally get what you're saying and I agree with you. I think for me personally, it comes down to 1) wanting to get content to make silly videos, 2) having a loose goal of wanting to get a complete set of games for the various systems, 3) and I enjoy the thrill of the hunt; so while I could pay 100 for a 100 dollar game at a game store, it isn't the same as finding it on the cheap - and while that hunt means I'm not always scoring big and I'm sometimes picking up more common stuff, it also introduces me to lots of weird and random games I've never even heard of before. It's also surprisingly fun to have friends over for game nights and give them thousands of options haha - I am constantly shocked by what they want to play, including some of the most terrible shovel-ware ever (Busy Scissors on Wii got played somehow lol). But on the flip side, I had never played any DDR games and one night I played 6 or 7 of them with some friends, because that's what caught their eye 😂
Great point, Ryan - I know I sold a ton of duplicates I just get randomly here and there at a yard sale this summer and just setting up and selling for a weekend was a lot of work - doing it full time would be so draining.
next time, just double check the CDs really quick. i cant tell you how many times i have found dreamcast and playstation 1 games mixed in with music CDs
Thank you so much! You just made my day! I’m doing all the editing myself, learning as I go - so if you watch from episode 1 on through, the videos get better as they go hopefully!
Blows my mind how people want to get a better deal when it’s already a good deal should’ve snagged that 5200 for that price sometimes you have to pay up for some things more than others you probably won’t see another 5200 for a long long time in the wild
I got alsobthe exact same Wii zapper with link crossbow training. Its opened, but minty box and same thought cool display and part of Zelda collection 😁
Im so jealous on your Wii red. I missed out on same good deal and condition couple months back. Wanted it som bad to stand next to my Mario collector edition with Dvd inside aswell😢
Oh interesting! Honestly, I never watched Transformers and didn't have the toys, so you could put a bunch in front of me and I would just have a blank stare 😅 - but good eye! I'll try to keep my eyes open for Transformers!
Freaking old people doing that type of stuff drives me nuts. Like stick with stuff you know. There an old dude that obviously doesn't work and goes to the goodwill I go to but he goes everyday. I've seen him with pokemon cards, Legos, a mario figure cib and much of the things I collect. Drives me absolutely crazy. I collect that stuff. He has time because he doesn't work.
So funny you mention that, today I got to a yard sale just as an older gentleman was buying all 200 games the guy had - I was like woah dude, could have left me some scraps 😂😂
@@ElDabstroyero blah I'm only 32 lol but we grew up on this stuff. I get it though but I think the worst part is that older people buying video games is more unexpected than people our age lol.
Nice finds today!!! I got an authentic copy of Pokémon heartgold today!! Lol I love how ur car was going off in the background 😂. Also question what flea markets do u recommend in PA
The car rave was wild haha. Congrats on the poke-pickup! Hometown Market (weds only) is usually fun, I’ve had good luck at Jake’s Flea mkt too - some foreshadowing for next episode maybe haha ;)

Remember kids, ALWAYS check the inside of game cases to see if they have the games or not.
I know!!! Such a bad habit of mine! The guy even told me to check the cases whomp! The good thing about this one, I would have taken the cases regardless just to get more GameCube cases and/or hold for finding the loose game. But I really need to check the cases!!
@@ElDabstroyerothe guy selling them even said to check the inside before getting them 🤷🏻♂️
@bingevintage8124 Yuppp - can’t teach an old Dab new tricks haha 😅😅
Sound like UA-cam silver dragons
Is that another channel? I’m not sure I’m familiar with Silver Dragons
I have found double dash on 3 separate occasions where it was case only..after 10 years of collecting still need a CIB one..just always eludes me
That’s wild! Is this foreshadowing for me ten years from now?? 😂
Good stuff man looking for the next one game on 😊😊😊
Thanks so much! Good to see you again!
Great episode and congratulations on the Vita. 🥳
Thanks so much, this one was a blast!
Thats why you always look in the cases before you buy them bro
So true! I’ve been burned by that a few times - one of these days I’ll learn 😂😂
open those cases 😂
I know right!
Did the Vita system have a memory card? And if it did was it a good one?
Just checked, no card
You probably overpaid a little on that X-box one stuff - but grabbing the red Wii bundle was a smart choice. I think as time goes on that may only continue to get pricier and pricier.
I think you’re right. It’s wild to me how poor the value is on some Xbox One games - I wonder if that trend will reverse at some point or not
@@ElDabstroyero It will once Xbox game Pass is more overpriced, some game files are massive around over 100gb of data. that's why they are deleting and delisting games. The ones that are going up in price are Xbox OG and 360 as the Xbox Store will be deleting to make space for Xbox One games.

@Jfscloud723 good advice!
Dirtbag just pay his asking price.i hate when you resellers offer ridiculously low compared to what your gonna sell it for
You sound big mad! I don’t really consider myself a reseller, if it helps - but I think some therapy might help you more 😂
Rookie mistakes, amigo. Open those cases. Open the boxes. Don’t get too easily distracted with seller conversations
Haha definitely a bad habit of mine! No spoilers, but I've got an episode coming up that's going to drive you nuts 😅😅
@@ElDabstroyeromy dude he told you to check if they were there lmao
I was even thinking when you grab them “did he even check”
@gamesdottom haha no spoilers but I’ve got an episode coming up that’s gonna drive you nuts 😂😵💫
@@ElDabstroyero lol this was just straight comedy
Love it bro!!
Ughhh that guy even told you to check the GameCube cases. Been there though, it's all good!
YUP! He sure did haha - honestly it’s such a bad habit of mine to skip checking the cases
Always check the cases. ALWAYS check cds for hidden ps1 games.
It’s a great point, you never know!
The word "rare" in video game hunting/collecting is so misused. The GameCube player disc is not rare, although it is quite valuable and a nice find.
I think it really depends on where you are because that one is the first one I’ve ever seen out thrifting.
Plus, there are degrees of rarity, is it as rare as Go Go Hypergrind? No,, but it’s definitely more rare than uncommon titles I would think.
Either way, like you said a really, good pick up! :-)
huh those guitars are in rough condition, dont know if their worth much in that condition
I forget which guitars you’re referencing, but if it’s the one I’m thinking of, I ended up selling it at my own yard sale
You found some good stuff, but im always thrown for a loop with certain collectors. I am closing in on 1500 games but im always selective on getting games I will actually play.

You say that... but now I'm craving some "truck racer" haha
When I was little I got so mad I couldn’t beat the final boss in Pokémon that tore up all of my pokemon Gameboy boxes 🤦♂️
Oh my god!!! That’s tragic! I hope you at least beat Lance (or whoever you were stuck on) after that! 🙀
@@ElDabstroyero I ended up beating him about an hour later 😂
@Littledeer805 haha! You got revenge at least 😂
Over paid pop. $70-$100 tops for the wii bundle
Missed the mark on that one I guess!
Bro you say “literally” way too much.
You’re literally mean bro
next time, just double check the CDs really quick. i cant tell you how many times i have found dreamcast and playstation 1 games mixed in with music CDs
Great point! Especially since he had those random Gamecube games right there
Who is your editor it’s so good!!!
Thank you so much! You just made my day! I’m doing all the editing myself, learning as I go - so if you watch from episode 1 on through, the videos get better as they go hopefully!
glad to catch you in the chat. those player discs are out of control now!
Had a blast chatting! The prices are so wild on them, but without it the hardware is useless sadly!
Excellent video. Extremely entertaining from start to finish. A++++++🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks so much! I had a blast game-hunting on this one!
Blows my mind how people want to get a better deal when it’s already a good deal should’ve snagged that 5200 for that price sometimes you have to pay up for some things more than others you probably won’t see another 5200 for a long long time in the wild
That’s a good point! Even as I was editing the video I was kicking myself for not getting it a little bit
I got alsobthe exact same Wii zapper with link crossbow training. Its opened, but minty box and same thought cool display and part of Zelda collection 😁
High five! That’s awesome! It’s a great looking little box to have on the shelf
Im so jealous on your Wii red. I missed out on same good deal and condition couple months back. Wanted it som bad to stand next to my Mario collector edition with Dvd inside aswell😢
Oh no! Hopefully you find another one soon!
The 3 GameCube cases makes you remember always check for the games. But a great score overall. The Wii was a bit overpriced. Great score
Absolutely, lesson learned! I’m sure I’ll slip up again but it happens lol. thanks so much!
@@ElDabstroyero I agree, it happens done it myself a time or 2
Have same as you statue for controller, but Banjo-kazooie instead. As their childhood memory
That’s awesome! Such a cool little piece of nostalgia!
it's Mari-o not Maereo 😂
Morrow-iohhhh
big fail skipping maniac mansion
Even in that condition? Hm maybe!
Dang!!!! The empty double dash was such a let down but incredible pick ups!!! Vita homebrew is amazing and easy!!!
Plot twist on that empty case haha but still an awesome haul! You’ll have to teach me to homebrew someday 👴
Definitely did great on that gameboy player disc but shame on the cube games but he did say check them 😂 .
He totally warned me! I’m just dumb haha 🤪
@ElDabstroyero lol trust me I've done it before
@Retromicky82 Won’t be my last time either haha
You missed the Transformer G1 Sharkitcon at the church sale.
Oh interesting! Honestly, I never watched Transformers and didn't have the toys, so you could put a bunch in front of me and I would just have a blank stare 😅 - but good eye! I'll try to keep my eyes open for Transformers!

@michaelsch1pawnfaz409 funniest part is that someday that’s gonna be us haha 😂👴
@@ElDabstroyero blah I'm only 32 lol but we grew up on this stuff. I get it though but I think the worst part is that older people buying video games is more unexpected than people our age lol.
@michaelsch1pawnfaz409 too true, the extra competition certainly makes it a bigger challenge to game hunt
Who uses a cash register at a garage sale never seen that before
They had some big expectations 💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
Nice finds today!!! I got an authentic copy of Pokémon heartgold today!! Lol I love how ur car was going off in the background 😂. Also question what flea markets do u recommend in PA

@hqgirl567 Let me know how it goes!
@@ElDabstroyero I sure will!!
@@ElDabstroyero oh and I’ll check Quakertown out as well. U said it was pretty good there
He got your ass lol
😂
Great video
Thank you so much!!
I wish the garage sales had games and pops 🥲
Keep hunting! You never know what you’ll find!
THE 300 DISC FOR NINTENDO CUBE
Such a cool find! It was something I wanted for a long time and them BOOM found at a random yard sale
