If reselling didn’t exist, you’d never be able to find retro games for sale. People hate how straight forward he is about it, but I like that he’s open and honest about something every collector does.
"Ended up with over 100 GC games"... So you made 100% of profits on games given to you by viewers thinking they were helping you build your childhood dream..
I think a main difference with Gabbo selling 75% of his collection is that he has been very transparent about that ultimate outcome. I have heard him say, repeatedly, that he plans to sell most of it once he completes the set. And to be clear, I have no problem with what Caleb did selling off part of the GC collection, especially based on how he described the thought process here. It just makes sense to sell games that I have bought but wind up not liking when I get around to playing them. No sense in keeping games in my collection that I don't like or have any sort of connection to.
There is absolutely no reason to hate Caleb. It's just collectors that see him as someone who keeps inventory low and prices up. His channel is more reselling focused than collecting, so that's automatically going to get hate. Nothing to do with his personality. It's funny how hoarders think they have the moral high ground here.
Guys, please change the way you upload your episodes. I love the show but I hate that I watch some parts before the whole thing is released, then, when you drop the 2 hr video, I don't know if I've seen it all or it will have some additional content... Please?
I love the podcast, guys, but you should seriously consider adding chapters for each long form episode. Releasing the short snippets first is frustrating because I'd love to also watch the full episode.. but don't really want to haphazardly skim through the entire thing for any content I may have missed.
Met Phoenix Resale at So Cal Gaming Expo and he was very nice and polite. I love watching his videos and look forward to them. I like the business details that are out there and it is what made me buy and flip to expand my personal collection. If people don't like the fact he is open and honest about his business "oh well". When he sold the GameCube games I was more interested in what he kept. Those were the ones that he really wanted. Phoenix Resale be you and don't change!
My unpopular opinion is that both Caleb and similarly DKoldies expose how unlikable a large percentage of the game collecting community is. So many adults are just so socially inept, unhappy and petty and just like to bring everyone down around them with their negativity.
You know what I hate about him... Nothing he seems like a lovely guy and I love his content, whoever edits his videos must be very handsome and does an amazing job! The thumbnail and title chefs kiss!
There was a point where Riff was a pretty hated guy in the UA-cam gaming community. Just because he was the new, annoying guy showing up in a lot of the OG channels.
It’s funny to see how out of touch they are about current vs past game argument. Literally gta 5 and call of duty have broke into mainstream gaming and have made billions of dollars. Furthermore why remakes are so popular because people enjoy new shiny graphics and better controls, at least when it comes to older 3D games from the n64 ps1 era.

Caleb gets way too much hate. Who the cares what he does. He is not hurting nobody so nobody should care.

I've met Caleb before & he was a super nice guy. He genuinely seemed to care & appreciate the short conversation we had.

Are you able to update your podcast on Spotify etc at the same time you release the full show here? That would be great if possible.
This is THE one we have been waiting for

Does collecting make you a better person?
