Yeah true, no one would have brought that

Haha yeah true, I always think I stand around too long when I go through the footage, maybe I need a 30 second limit at each seller lol. Tbf it's that early that my brain isn't at full capacity so need the extra time to process what's going on

Yeah sometimes it can be like that, but just need to be consistent and keep showing up

Yeah mate, really enjoyed it, you must have been my lucky charm

Oh nice that's a great deal yeah vinted is another good place for deals

Yes, 100% mate! I make just as much buying off Ebay in a week as I do going to a car boot.

Another good day at the car boot mate 👍

Yeah nice to get out there with my mate and find some cool items

@@thecollectorsquest Twas a Great day out :D

Yeah it seemed very high, and thanks, really happy with the pickups, just disappointed about the other games left behind

Yeah that's fair enough, I didn't realize they would work, so worth keeping an eye out in the future if the price is cheap enough

Depends where the data is stored on the disc, and also what system its on, as with newer consoles some games are basically just a key, but you should be aware that, just because the game loads and seemingly plays fine, doesn't mean it won't fail later down the line as you get further into the game, that's why people pay a premium for mint discs👍

@@RetroGamesBoy78 equally depends how deep the scratch is. A full circular can look devastating but if it's only surface it can be buffed out. I believe the majority of those circular scratches came about from people loading their discs into a vertically standing Xbox if I recall. It's always a risk and one I wouldn't speculate a lot of money on. But if it's a game I really want and it's stupidly low in price it's a risk I'll occasionally take. I'll just write it off as a loss If it doesn't load. I certainly wouldn't pay full used rrp for tornado outbreak if it has that kind of damage

@@steammachine3061 sure, but like you say, how severe the ring is is only really a problem for resurfacing, I actually manually resurface discs myself with T-cut so I know a fair bit about the subject, (even have a 'how to' video uploaded) but if you've got a ring and it's covering important data then that's your first problem. I actually have a growing collection of games with Disc Rot, 95% of them fail to even boot, but a few with fairly severe cases of it, still run flawlessly. It really is the luck of the draw. 👍

Yeah all discs have a finite life, but yeah I always stay away from disc rot

Cheers mate, glad you enjoyed the video

Haha, nice, glad you enjoyed the video

Thanks mate, glad your enjoying the content

Nice, wish I had my consoles and games from my childhood, I had to unfortunately sell them to pick up other games

@@shanethrelfall416 nice, I've kept everything pretty much since I traded in my Snes and MD in 96 for a Sega Saturn, I think my entire collection is probably worth £15,000-£20,000, maybe more, I mean my top 3 most expensive titles are worth £800-£1000 between them. (Panzer Dragoon Saga, Burning Rangers (mint) , Saturn Mortal Kombat Trilogy (mint), and I've tons that are worth around the £80-£100 Mark.

If there's anything you want and you aren't over stretching financially, then it wouldn't be a bad idea. But no one knows how the market will respond once the store actually closes

Cheers mate, yeah always baffles me what resellers leave behind, people at my car boots are just after games, but way more money to be made in other things like DVD boxsets and electronics.

Cheers mate, glad you have joined me on my journey

Yeah tons of money in boxsets

Yeah it's a crazy price, not even sure you'd get that on eBay, but I don't know the mega drive market enough

Some games are worth that but emphasis on the ''Some'' to many people think that every retro game is worth hundreds of pounds when they are not. It is worse in my countries fb and flea market. They charge 50+ for a copy of Gran Turismo which is nuts.

Yeah I'm sure there was some decently expensive games there, but definitely not £400 worth

Cheers mate

Glad you enjoyed that

Was this for the controller? Electronics are risky as there is no way to test, so always low ball sellers

Cheers mate glad your enjoying the content

Yeah mate, I feel the same way, done it a couple of times and always regret it tbf.

Cheers mate, I collect from PS1 onwards, trying to add all of the old JRPGs, but they are pricey. Currently focusing on PS1, currently have koudelka on the way from CEX, currently saving for Castlevania, one just came in stock with manual, but its 395 and will probably be gone before I have the vouchers. Massive fan of your channel, watched for 2 years, huge inspiration behind this channel, sad to see you leave the RUclips space, but fully understand

@@thecollectorsquest nice mate you know I love a bit of PS1 and yeah games are pricey right now and not a lot in stock at CEX I’ve been having to sell my vouchers at 80% and then buy stuff off eBay as the games I want just aren’t in stock. Thanks man that means a lot! Maybe i’ll be back one day but for now i’ll enjoy your videos instead 😅👍🏻

Hope you enjoy the content mate

Where have you been hiding retro?

Only got 3 games so far, need to build out the PS1 collection

Cheers mate, glad to have you along for the journey

Thanks mate appreciate the kind words and support

Cheer mate, appreciate the support

Yeah, probably instant karma as the games didn't trade in for much

Yeah, reckon we have lost 2 months of the car boot season due to the rain

Cheers mate, yeah always see books so worth keeping an eye for them

Thanks mate, just wished they were cheaper so that I could add even more switch games to the collection

I use it to add games that I actually want for my collection

@@thecollectorsquest but you sell everything

I'm a game collector and I use car boots to help offset the cost of expensive retro games. I don't see three issue in using car boots to help fund my collection

Why are CEX so bad? They are not perfect, but they aren't the devil incarnation. Also I don't snatch these games from anyone, if people get up at 4:45 in the morning like me and every other car boot hunter, then they can snag the deals. Why do you hate resellers, pretty much every business are resellers, Tesco buys groceries in bulk and sell them to us at marked up prices

@thecollectorsquest tesco runs a Business. normal car boot buyers buy the stuff they want and put that in their collection and leave the rest for the others. buying everything and reselling it for profit is not cool. think about it

Why is it not cool, there are no rules saying you can only buy x amount of items, I don't see why there is such a negative image about reselling to cex or eBay. If you buy something, that item is yours to do with whatever you please, if you want to go home and chuck it in the fire, then that's your choice.

​@thecollectorsquest that's correct, there are no rules. I know that other RUclipsrs do it too, but it's still not nice . if you buy it, keep it. it looks you want to make profit of everything you get. it would be nice to know what you bought with the money you got from CEX.

I don't make any money, I get vouchers from CEX to then add games to my collection

Cheers mate, yes in the past I only bought games, but my car boots are so competitive with games that I needed to branch out otherwise I wouldn't pick anything up. And cool, I'll check it out

Thanks for the support, will be going over my entire collection over time. Yes a car boot sale is similar to a garage sale where people sell their unwanted items from the boot of their cars. We don't have garage sales here in the UK

I brought this game for the collection as it is region free

I don't think the common games will increase, it is going to be the more obscure games that aren't in stock in CEX that will probably go up. But who knows, the Xbox 360 market is currently so unpredictable

Lol that is definitely out of my ball park

@@thecollectorsquest circulation machine are always worth good money the lowest they go is like 30£ its good item to get all money you spend on games. I just let you know as I hear you said u put some to get money back from Ebay. I know you dont do resell but that is one of itmes is good to look for.

Yes some switch games are expensive. What games you looking to add to your collection

Cheers mate

Yeah true it's mental how everyone is buying every game, even if it reviewed poorly, people definitely have FOMO

Yeah it's an amazing shop, one of the best gaming shops around

Really, never knew that held value, thanks for the tip

Yes want to add some ninja gaiden games, heard they are brutal. And yes looks like a cool space JRPG so definitely need to add that while it's cheap

Yes, left 4 dead is an absolute classic, also love the Witcher 2, super excited about the remake of the first Witcher game

Cheers mate, fairly happy with it

No mate, what games you got your eye on?
