    Just wanted to say that I love the videos. It inspired me to start collecting. Just got my first pickup today. A zelda 3ds with dragon quest VIII and Pokemon Ultra Sun for $50

    As soon as he heard you say collector!!! the price went from $20 too $100 trust He was lucky he was wearing a Kirby T-shirt how interrupts why you in Negotiations 😖 respect GGG unit tendo family!!!!!!! 😁😁

    You guys had some decent finds in this video to flip. I think that random fellow collector, while he did seem nice, may have hurt your negotiation. Him talking about games being collectible and certain games at a local store being really expensive definitely put it in that guys head that he had something of value to you. It's ok that he wanted to say hi, but he should have just stayed back until you were done negotiating once he saw you were in the process of buying games.

      Yeah there is definitely some validity to that. Thankfully I feel like $75 was still totally fair for both parties, especially considering she originally wanted $120 for the PS2 (which ended up being broken)

    Some nice finds overall - even if there isn't much to be added to the collection. Also got to love finding something for yourself or family/friends. Hope your mom enjoys that piano Dan. Those lil magnets are super cool, that little girl did a great job at them, getting the hustle instilled in her early. I find that to be the case with the Disney Infinity figures, anything that has a weapon, like the lightsaber, tends to be broken off, as they were pretty feeble. Same for things like Skylanders as well. That water Boiler seems like a pretty cool thing, never seen one, or at least never really noticed it enough to pay attention to it. Usually I just use a kettle for that stuff, sure it pretty handy and quite possibly quicker than a kettle though lol. Sorry for the luck on that gaming lot with the Wii/PS2/360. Don't know if they knew what the problem was, or were aware that there was a problem, since they said kids and all, but potentially it was the parents. Chance you take at a Yard Sale, which hurts either way though, since if it all worked it would be a pretty solid deal. Hope you can get it all figured out and working guys. Very nice potential profit overall, love how you guys break down about the "bulk" stuff, since even if you look at that it still good. Every place is different, so I understand people talking about low balls and the like, but the thing is the unknown is the killer for stuff, since as you pointed out with the consoles, if they work perfect, if it fails though you CAN still sell as parts, but you need to look at it like a paperweight. Great video as always guys, was a joy to come along with you to yard sales, truly can't wait for them to start up in my area again. Keep on being the wonderful people you are, and looking forward to the next one. Cheers to you both. #Roadto3k

    Yard sales are to get rid of stuff not charge ppl retail prices. Especially just sitting in your house yard sale should have low prices.
