    Small Wonder was an unusual show, but loved it as a kid.
    It was about a scientist who invented a robot girl and tried to pass her off as the daughter
    To be fair, TONS of 80’s shows had an unusual “hook”, and a robot daughter isn’t any more weird than one about aliens or magic

If it was for 360, that's a quick and easy gamestop flip for $8.80 or more. That is, if it had both discs inside, which usually they don't... haha

    Rick! Man I saw that Small Wonder DVD and about had a heart attack. Sep 7th 1985 is the day that show first aired. Sep 7th 1985 happened to be my 10th birthday. I had a birthday party at McD's with all my friends it was a Saturday. But I knew that later that day Small Wonder was coming on. My friends were begging me to come outside and play I ended up talking them into coming in and watching Small Wonder. It became a weekly thing from then on. I loved the show back then and love it now! And...congrats on almost 100k, it is coming soon ya need what 5-600, I have told so many ppl about your page, 80's and early 90's is my era for sure.

Plus, it was all part of the fun of collecting. Go resale'n, or yard sales, buy stuff to keep, and stuff to flip, and then use that money to buy more to keep. It was great.

It was the wrong disk 😂 Blockbuster was already shut, so we couldn’t go back on the day and get the correct disk. So we tried it out, and to our surprise it was actually a pretty solid fun game 🤣 So good that the next weekend we went back and rented it for real.😁 Fun times! I’d love to find a copy of that game to play and revisit the memories 😂 Good find bro!👍

    If you have games that aren't worth enough to sell individually on Ebay, put them together in lots of 20 or 25 and sell them. You'll get way more than trading them in to a game store. Your store there does seem to be more generous than most though. My local store would have probably given you $150 for all that...$200 at the very most.

    I just flip lots for the collection and I don't even bother listing things that are under $10 anymore. It's become a full time hobby but is still just a hobby for me and want it to be fun. Every few months I will take a whole back seat full of stuff to some local stores and get like $500-1000 in credit and just grab a bunch of heavy hitters I need for the collection. It's nice to get a good relationship going with the owners of the your local stores if you do this a lot. I'm able to just send a quick picture to have them tell me what they don't want and do the input myself for a price quote and just drop it off and not have to wait around. I only really add to the collection from lots and the bit of profit in the "fund" so it's always super fun to get some higher end titles this way all in one go a few times a year. GB/C/A and PS1/2 are my favorite consoles to collect for and I'm missing a lot still so I wouldn't have been able to pass up those crispy Gundam games as they're quite uncommon and bound to go up before too long.

    Just got caught up with the series! Loved watching it develop from the start. My thrift stores sell games for $5-$10 so flipping games is very hard! Had to start doing movies. Thanks for the inspiration to give it a shot!

    Scrapland is a great underrated game. The latter part is difficult to complete but is a great 20-30hr story.

    May sound weird but the video isn't over yet and I'm already sad it's coming to an end 😂
