I really enjoy these episodes Pete, I don't often buy games off of ebay, but just the methods you use for searching to get good results can apply to anything you're searching for, and it has helped me refine my searches quite a bit. Also these episodes are just plain entertaining!
No joke, I have actually fallen asleep to a couple of Pete dorr vids in the past, but it's because god damn do you have a smooth voice man, and it's just so nice to sit back and learn about some new games:)
I'm glad you're giving Tsugunai a look. Bought it really cheap at a game store years ago and it was actually pretty cool. Messing around with the combat blocking system was fun and so was filling up the amulets with different rune shapes. Once the amulet is filled, its spirit can be summoned. I found it really interesting, especially being a game under $10 at the time.
I love PSX long boxes. I was sad when they went to generic (and also very fragile) jewel cases. Twisted Metal, Doom, Tekken, Ridge Racer, Mortal Kombat 3, Viewpoint, Battle Arena Toshinden, Jumping Flash, Need for Speed, Wipeout, all have beautiful long boxes.
@@NicktheLP i always save any jewel cases i can find in good condition, the shittier the music or game on the disc the better lol i just throw it all away and keep the case
Awesome episode. Just wanted to let you know that you have turned me on to eBay shopping. Although I still hit up garage sales and goodwill I've found some really good deals thanks to your methods.
I really like this series, actually taught me how to use ebay more efficiently. BTW I see Dragon Seed for pretty cheap all of the time when I used to go to disc replay, I just assumed it wasn't good since it was always around $10 CiB
I see thousand arms every now and then too, can't remember what it went for though, sometimes it isn't CiB though, next time I'm there, I'll keep an eye out. Its actually pretty good though, its quite different, especially for the ps1.
I love these videos since I tend to sometimes hunt on Ebay myself. :) I have also been looking for Dragon Seeds. I used to rent it all the time as a kid. Also, Guardian's Crusade is a RPG. It is very kid-ish, but it was intended to be that way because it was a game that was suppose to be introducing kids to RPGs. However, I remember this game being fun. It's been years since I played it though. One of the many games I use to rent back in the day.
I think you should actually keep the video ALL raw footage. A. You did say it's a realtime video (in episode 2) and also I like the raw footage. B. It gives an illusion (not really) of the event of eBay Game Hunting. Loving the new videos Pete!!
I'm still waiting for you to come across Lord of the Rings: The Third Age on GBA again, Pete :) I know you didn't enjoy the console adaptation, but the GBA game is an entirely different game. Again, a Fire Emblem-type clone set in the Lord of the Rings universe. Well worth the $20 or less asking price, my friend! Awesome video, by the way. Always enjoy these.
I love Gregory Horror Show! It's one of my favourites on the PS2. A very different take on the survival horror genre. It's worth around 20-30 dollars here in europe. I'm surprised to see the US value of this game!
I can't believe that game was not released in the US, such a great title, and for me a definite must-own for the PS2. I just love the character design and the mood in that game. Cute graphics, but the game is surprisingly scary!
Haha, I figured I would say dollars, as Pete probably doesn't know the exchange rate of norwegian crowns, what we have where I live. I paid around 20 crowns for my copy of Gregory Horror Show. :)
Yes, but I use completed instead of sold because it is also important to see when games DON'T sell and how much the seller was asking. A game might sell for $10 but there may be 20 others that did not sell for under $10 for instance.
PeteDorr I think he is saying you don't have to click "advanced" search link, you can simply click the check box on the left menu on your current search page.
The fact that tron bonne's price is increasing so fast is ridiculous. Not to long ago I saw it in a store for 130 or maybe less. It's probably only rising due to the bubble.
Weird how you searched for Team Buddies. I actually used to have that game and it was a total gem on the ps1. Id let friends borrow it and everyone loved it. Never would have thought it was a rare game
Just curious, why not just grab killer 7 on xbox or ps2? The xbox has many 3rd party games that would probably benefit from the most powerful hardware - and for a lot cheaper than the cube versions. Another example would be TS future perfect.
I have been looking for worms for n64. I looked a few months ago and the going rare was 50. Now it's over 100$. Also what do you think about gamestop now carrying gamecube games again. Will it hurt the ebay prices for them or help them?
Can't you buy replacement jewel cases in bulk and just replace the case? Other than having a clear case there is nothing special about the jewel cases.
it seems def like your more into the rush you get from the so called hunt of the games and how rare they are then actualy games youll play its a shame because this is the thing driving prices so high glad that companies are doing the whole re release on consoles and steam etc because I can get good games I'm gonna enjoy and play and leave the overpriced shelf stock that's gonna sit there to the people that do it for the thrill of the hunt works out so good for the gamers
Hey Pete! I'm doing a bit of hunting right now and I'm looking for a working dreamcast in preferably good condition. How much would say I should be spending on average?
why do you care about cracks..their cd cases probably the easiest game cases to replace...even the double disc cases are just double audio cd cases...and even if ya don't have a replacement go and find a cd case at a goodwill or st vinnies...i see alot of videos with people saying they would buy it if it wasn't cracked as far as ps1 games..and i don't get it..same goes for greatest hits games although for a totally different reason..if your buying it to play who cares if its greatest hits...if its gonna sit on a shelf then maybe i understand but price wise after ps1 it don't really matter if its one or the other
You americans are really lucky, alot of the things you look at in these videos on ebay, are not even viewable in europe because the sellers usually block us from seeing it because they don't want to ship international :(
Man, just once I wanna see Pete actually buy something because he sometimes says he gets like 100 or 150 dollar games for like 20-30 dollars and I just wanna see him actually get those rare games. :-/
Pete I just lost this REALLY good bid on a lot. I had been bidding since the day before and had to outbid one or two people, but then two others doubled my price in like the last 3 seconds, next time should I just wait until last minute if it is untouched?
Always wait with your best patience until the last grasp, bear in mind though that some are using sniping services. Google that one up if you are feeling curious, most unfair I think personally.
I could never get on with Killer 7, too many aggravating non skippable sections (that "pretend" voice ahhhhhhhhhh!) but Gregory Horror Show on the other hand is a fantastic game.
If you want to buy a game on the cheap, why not contact the seller if you see it's longer then normal listed on Ebay? Also make a new pickup video mate!
I like this series a lot and I don't know why.
I really enjoy these episodes Pete, I don't often buy games off of ebay, but just the methods you use for searching to get good results can apply to anything you're searching for, and it has helped me refine my searches quite a bit. Also these episodes are just plain entertaining!
Keep up these vids Pete. I always learn about obscure games, when I watch this, and it's just plain relaxing.
Thanks Rich, as long as it's not too relaxing and putting people to sleep, lol.

This series seems like it wouldn't be boring, but it's actually very interesting
keep up these videos Pete it is just relaxing to just sit down and watch these videos you do a great job making these keep it up
I personally love these videos. Keep them coming!
Always like to see these videos, and as previously posted learn about games I didn't know about!
16:48 props to the person who brought that Golden Sun: Dark Dawn Store Display.
Anime3691 if only the game itself lived up to its predecessors
I love PSX long boxes. I was sad when they went to generic (and also very fragile) jewel cases. Twisted Metal, Doom, Tekken, Ridge Racer, Mortal Kombat 3, Viewpoint, Battle Arena Toshinden, Jumping Flash, Need for Speed, Wipeout, all have beautiful long boxes.
We need more of these videos Pete!!
Keep this series coming Pete!
I love these so much Pete
To save you a little time, you can just check the box on the left side of the screen to show sold listings instead of how you do it
Really hope you can reboot this series and maybe try craiglist, or other sites as well.
Pete, I fucking love you
I dont see how a crack in the case matters... just put the paper into a different case. BAM mint condition
I find it a real pain swapping art around on jewel case games.
OCD
And we don't always have empty jewel cases in good condition lying around
@@NicktheLP i always save any jewel cases i can find in good condition, the shittier the music or game on the disc the better lol i just throw it all away and keep the case
I'd like to see a modern rendition of this. Seen what he thinks of modern pricing and finesse tactics for today's market
You can still find lots of good deals on Ebay and not just on video games. There's anything and everything on there.
Another quality video, thanks Pete.
Zoe Thompson Damn, I love this series.
5:10 I love how your search for Dragon Seed brought up a ton of colorful produce. :P
So simple and yet so entertaining, I love these eBay hunting videos
So entertaining to watch you do your thing haha love the series. Keep it up!
You inspired me to start my own video game collection!!!! Amazing videos by the way.
Awesome episode. Just wanted to let you know that you have turned me on to eBay shopping. Although I still hit up garage sales and goodwill I've found some really good deals thanks to your methods.

Sweet another great video! Thanks Pete
Great video.
No one can stop Mr domino great game for those who don't know it for the ps1

It's been years since I played it though. One of the many games I use to rent back in the day.
ONE is awesome...found it for 5 or 6 bucks complete at a game shop a year ago I believe.
why dont you make more of theses? there fun to watch :D
do another one pete please? it doesn't take long to edit?
I haven't bought anything from "the-video-game-gallery" on ebay (when you looked up in cold blood) but they seem to be pretty reliable sellers
Thanks pete, best of luck with the bid
great vid again pete!
These vids are great!!!
Yea
Better Ebay hunting video by far. I'm still looking for a copy of Killer 7 on GC but can never find a good deal on it :(
cool series of vids
I think you should actually keep the video ALL raw footage. A. You did say it's a realtime video (in episode 2) and also I like the raw footage. B. It gives an illusion (not really) of the event of eBay Game Hunting. Loving the new videos Pete!!
Good videos man.

Awesome video, by the way. Always enjoy these.
A lot of the PS1 games you are looking for, I'am as well
the PS1 is my all time most love console
Team Buddies is a game I've wanted for years now....it's too bad it's so pricey.
Keep making them please :)
I love Guardian's Crusade, great JRPG!
Good luck finding the N64 hat anywhere else.
did not realize how lucky I was getting my disc only copy of Wolf Child for 3 bucks XD
The long box version of resident evil is worth owning.
I noticed that you stumbled onto silvermermaidus' eBay page. I've been buying games from his store since 2007.
Kinda regretting seeing Gregory horror show for 4 pounds in a game shop Pete you know you putting up the value of these games now lol
good stuff
I love Gregory Horror Show! It's one of my favourites on the PS2. A very different take on the survival horror genre. It's worth around 20-30 dollars here in europe. I'm surprised to see the US value of this game!
Those were the JP version, it was never released outside of Europe and Japan apparently.
Do you want the pal version pete? Do you have the facility to play it?
I can't believe that game was not released in the US, such a great title, and for me a definite must-own for the PS2. I just love the character design and the mood in that game. Cute graphics, but the game is surprisingly scary!
Haha, I figured I would say dollars, as Pete probably doesn't know the exchange rate of norwegian crowns, what we have where I live. I paid around 20 crowns for my copy of Gregory Horror Show. :)
(But the game seems to be worth more like 150 crowns)
Do another eBay hunting video Pete!
You do know that you can click completed or sold listings on the page with the listings right?
Yes, but I use completed instead of sold because it is also important to see when games DON'T sell and how much the seller was asking. A game might sell for $10 but there may be 20 others that did not sell for under $10 for instance.
PeteDorr I think he is saying you don't have to click "advanced" search link, you can simply click the check box on the left menu on your current search page.
Stephen Alexander exactly
Gregory horror show is dirt cheap here in the uk
The fact that tron bonne's price is increasing so fast is ridiculous. Not to long ago I saw it in a store for 130 or maybe less. It's probably only rising due to the bubble.
Weird how you searched for Team Buddies. I actually used to have that game and it was a total gem on the ps1. Id let friends borrow it and everyone loved it. Never would have thought it was a rare game
lol love the intro
Waste no time!
2:55
too dope
Lol thats funny! I´m actually trying to complete Trinity: souls of zill o´ll at the moment!
i saw on your want list you had in cold blood, funny I just picked that up last week at salvation army for a buck =)
Btw still waiting for part6
Just curious, why not just grab killer 7 on xbox or ps2? The xbox has many 3rd party games that would probably benefit from the most powerful hardware - and for a lot cheaper than the cube versions. Another example would be TS future perfect.
cause he is a collector.
collectors are stupid.
Did anyone notice the Bubsy 3D in the first listing?
Daniel Kim yep
Wow I bought the Misadventures of Tron Bonne a long time ago because I love Mega Man Legends and that's worth $250?!
Were the prices for the ebayer that was selling all the PSX games accurate? I had quite a few of those $50+ games.
I have been looking for worms for n64. I looked a few months ago and the going rare was 50. Now it's over 100$. Also what do you think about gamestop now carrying gamecube games again. Will it hurt the ebay prices for them or help them?
do episode 5 please
im gonna bid up all the games on his want list mwahahahaha
any particular reason you wanted killer 7 on gamecube?
Can't you buy replacement jewel cases in bulk and just replace the case? Other than having a clear case there is nothing special about the jewel cases.
you need adblock in your life.
fuck yeah, wolf child.
it seems def like your more into the rush you get from the so called hunt of the games and how rare they are then actualy games youll play its a shame because this is the thing driving prices so high glad that companies are doing the whole re release on consoles and steam etc because I can get good games I'm gonna enjoy and play and leave the overpriced shelf stock that's gonna sit there to the people that do it for the thrill of the hunt works out so good for the gamers
Hey Pete! I'm doing a bit of hunting right now and I'm looking for a working dreamcast in preferably good condition. How much would say I should be spending on average?
why do you care about cracks..their cd cases probably the easiest game cases to replace...even the double disc cases are just double audio cd cases...and even if ya don't have a replacement go and find a cd case at a goodwill or st vinnies...i see alot of videos with people saying they would buy it if it wasn't cracked as far as ps1 games..and i don't get it..same goes for greatest hits games although for a totally different reason..if your buying it to play who cares if its greatest hits...if its gonna sit on a shelf then maybe i understand but price wise after ps1 it don't really matter if its one or the other
EnvyonThe West A lot of collectors (serious ones at that), entirely care whether a game is in its original case.
Pete Dorr - your the tightest man on youtube! SPEND SPEND SPEND
In cold blood is common as muck
Has it ever happend that you paid like 20+ dollars and they didn't send you the game but still took your money?
The Trust with ebay, youd get your money back.
You americans are really lucky, alot of the things you look at in these videos on ebay, are not even viewable in europe because the sellers usually block us from seeing it because they don't want to ship international :(
How much is King's Field IV for ps2 worth?
Bruce Willis is in "ONE" so....fuck it.
Man, just once I wanna see Pete actually buy something because he sometimes says he gets like 100 or 150 dollar games for like 20-30 dollars and I just wanna see him actually get those rare games. :-/
Hey Pete, i have a Team Buddies if you are interested! Its in good condition.
YES!!!
Pete I just lost this REALLY good bid on a lot. I had been bidding since the day before and had to outbid one or two people, but then two others doubled my price in like the last 3 seconds, next time should I just wait until last minute if it is untouched?
Always wait with your best patience until the last grasp, bear in mind though that some are using sniping services.
Google that one up if you are feeling curious, most unfair I think personally.
imrp7 Snipe. That's what I do, and it works most of the time.
Pete, I've been looking for a copy of Outback Joey for a long time. Do you happen to know anybody who may have one to sell?
Good luck finding it. So hard to find :(
Epic! XD
I could never get on with Killer 7, too many aggravating non skippable sections (that "pretend" voice ahhhhhhhhhh!) but Gregory Horror Show on the other hand is a fantastic game.
It's becoming nearly impossible to find things now that I could've just a few months ago. Thanks for driving up prices bud.
1:55 look $0.99
He missed a dragon seeds for 32.00 buy it now /:
If you want to buy a game on the cheap, why not contact the seller if you see it's longer then normal listed on Ebay? Also make a new pickup video mate!
One is too hard and bad controls got it for $5 mint.
BTW guys i do pick up video for games so check my channel for pick ups as well you buy the items from me
it's not $50 cool
when the fuck you gonna tell us if the bids were accepted?
Am I the only one that buys crummy sports games just to recycle the cases?
So you only play games that are worth a lot? You'll proudly will not read this.
