      It happens, all my boxed n64 games in my collection came from a buy like this, mostly mint boxes even a near mint console box. Pokemon Stadium 2 mint box was my favourite out the lot though. All for £30.

    Once he kept mentioning eBay I knew you were going to have to pay up. At least he was reasonable enough to consider the timing and work involved. Just unfortunate you couldn’t get it a little cheaper esp. considering a lot of the cartridges were missing. That’s where negotiation gets tough, when both parties know the deal but finding that fair middle ground can definitely be challenging. This guy also seemed like he was totally okay with keeping it all had you countered anything less than $4k. While this turned into more of a collection upgrade for you, the reselling component sort of went out the door when you pass that 60% threshold. Ideally 40-50% price-charting seems more ideal when factoring taxes on top of all the other fees. Nothing you don’t already know. Just a tough situation to be in when you’re sitting there for hours calculating value and percentages, all the while maintaining that positive attitude. Childhood collections are always more sentimental to owners as well. Good job keeping your composure and having the patience to deal with all of it.

  • @flyboyz923
    @flyboyz923 Год назад +17

    Chase, I'm a reseller of (mostly vintage) Balsa Model Airplane Kits and totally understand your approach to 'adding to your collection'. The goal there becomes adding higher quality items to your collection while breaking even on the acquisition costs of what you're buying. In the end, you've recovered your monies spent while at the same time greatly enhancing the value of your personal collection. Good job!!

    • @bigballrecall

  • @jfh.8064
    @jfh.8064 Год назад +14

    Something you should mention when negotiating % of eBay on stuff is that they have to pay taxes on it too. A lot of people don’t realize that. It can be a difference maker. A lot of people don’t want to have to fill out separate taxes for eBay and all that so you can get stuff even cheaper sometimes.

    • @springretrogames
      @springretrogames Год назад +5

      100%. I kept waiting for Chase to mention that if he sells over $600 they are going to send him tax documents.

    • @ironman2885
      @ironman2885 Год назад

      Yup, ebay takes their percentage on the sales taxes to so the fee is actually more than 15% and then you get to pay income tax on it... Barely worth it unless it's your job or you sell less than $600 worth a year.

  • @RetroGameBros
    @RetroGameBros Год назад +35

    Would have been the craziest find if he only wanted $5 a piece or something. Having to pay 70% of pricecharting definitely made it a tougher decision, basically just like buying someones collection that hit you up from your youtube videos. Still, to go up to a yard sale and have them pull that out must have been exhilarating... up until he told you what he wanted lol

    • @MrDream-zm1pw
      @MrDream-zm1pw Год назад

      Yep definitely a nice haul but at $4k it’s a hard sell for me. If the seller was at $1k I’d be all over it. And who wouldn’t want to find this for $5 a piece

    • @SamSyes
      @SamSyes Год назад +3

      Far from ripped off that’s a best case scenario for a seller like him. He’s getting cash money instead of having to claim it like income if he sold on auction and may have not even gotten that much

    • @hawkeyebricks9905

  • @KoujiAlex
    @KoujiAlex Год назад +1

    I loved this episode and appreciated the part Grant played in it; he represents how many of us hold dear to our childhood treasures and even more, treasures he worked hard to obtain. Many were quick to point out that the total price was way too high and that the haul wasn't really that much of a deal due to how pricey it was. Still, things we have to consider are that he wasn't planning to sell these at the moment his family's yard sale took place, the condition of those boxes was insane and his whole childhood was inside those 4 boxes. Chase really insisted on closing the deal at that moment, so the haste of closing the deal at that moment might have also influenced the total price to hike. It is different when someone wants to get rid of their stuff quick and make a buck out of it vs when someone is still not fully ready to let go of something, but gives it a go to see if the deal is good. Either way, this was one of my favorite episodes for sure. Great score Chase!

Add some quality conditioned games to complete that, and again you're getting above retail. Your margins will be solid

    You got some incredible stuff but I think right now the seller made out better in the end. Counting fees, shipping, and taxes there's not much room for profit. He got really lucky he got you as a buyer because I can't think of too many people who would buy a lot of games that are mostly box-only for that percentage and I don't think he considered that. Luckily I think you'll end out making out very well in the end because most of these games going into your collection will only increase in value, especially considering condition. Incredible finds!

      tbh I always wondered why everyone tore up and threw out the boxes and stuff along with scratching up all the games. That includes my friends. I always kept everything as nice as possible because I liked it so I treated it well. Granted at an early enough age it was my mom keeping them nice, I think to her if she paid $40 for a NES game it was going to be well taken care of.

  • @Mampersand
    @Mampersand Год назад

    Pro tip: snes and 64 boxes are designed to be opened from the right side. The left has those catches designed to hold the left flap in place, but the right doesn’t. Opening from the right side reduces cardboard stress on, say, a Chrono Trigger box worth several hundred dollars.
    Also obviously not doable at a yardsale but I like to slide a butter knife in to open boxes vs thumbing the center. Less wear on the flap.

    It hurts my soul to see those boxes being opened from the left side. The left side is designed to stay shut.
    I really don't think $4k is bad based off what I'm seeing. I wouldn't be surprised at all if that turns out to be a net profit of $4k or more.
    This is a textbook example of why having a lot of cash on hand is important even if you are just a collector that resells to fund a collection. What a beautiful collection.

    What a score! The only thing I struggle with is your profit margin. It's none of my business what you pay for things, as you clearly know your business better than anybody else, but with that said, for me personally, as a small time reseller with no staff to pay, it seems like you're at break even or maybe even a little loss (when factoring wages, taxes, opportunity cost, fees, and all the other little Nickle and dime hidden costs of running a business).
    I don't know. Maybe I'm reading it wrong but I know I need to be doubling my money at minimum all the time! With that said, if I thought I could make $1000 on a $4000 purchase, I might do that...where I probably wouldn't entertain making $10 on a $40 purchase. Is that kind of your thought process on some of these purchases where your profit margin is so tight?
    Don't get me wrong though. I am GREEN with envy over that score. Just amazing.

      Well said! This was a purchase that turned from finding stuff to flip, to trying to collect. After all expenses I’ll be able to break even or better. I’m keeping quite a few games (2nd channel video tomorrow) and I’ll be selling the lesser quality duplicates in my collection which helps a bit

      One way to think about it is, that the Charizard profit money could be used for this collection basically (and the stuff not needed in the collection, could be used to go toward the next goal).

    If those are sealed Magic Revised booster and starter boxes behind you, you should be able to trade those easily for a PSA 9 Charizard.

    I would so much love to do the same thing you do and browse around looking for the little gems. But just the hunt would be so magnificent to do.
    When i lived in Netherlands i loved to drive around and look for games and movies for my own collection, sometimes few 100 km driving for 1 movie lol.
    Now in Mexico i cant do it unfortunately . But maybe if we move to US i might start doing it if i am not too old.
    Love to watch the vids.

    Sometimes people who are wanting to buy video game's of other people to relive there childhood can never get them because of resellers getting there first checking on eBay to see what it's worth and asking for a cheap price from people who don't really know what there game's are worth so resellers can boast about how Much money there earn in profits on RUclips videos
