At comic cons you find more overpriced stuff than good deals. A vendor really tried to sell me Berserk deluxe editions for $150 a piece because he claimed they were "out of print". Lying to my face really rubbed me the wrong way and pissed me off. Just one of my experiences among many more.
Yeah dude, I got finessed so many times as a kid due to my boomer parents or siblings never wanting to use the internet to buy stuff. Luckily due to gamestop maxxing I got somewhat better deals.
If you wore a bow tie and that outfit next time you can be a doctor from doctor who. ALSO I have it on decent authority (my wife collects Disney pins hardcore) that one way to scrapper (repro/fake) is if the ears don't go all the way to the edge of the pin on the back. Either way glad you enjoyed the con :)
I miss going to cons. I’m in AZ and the Phoenix Comic Con was the main one I’d go to. There was a decent amount of game booths, but most of the prices were either the higher end of retail or above retail value. I’m sure there were deals, but the most popular stuff has the price jacked up because they know someone is still likely to buy it. It’s right there. You don’t have to wait. You can have it right now. Don’t get me wrong though, Cons are still fun.
Most Cons are over priced. Phoenix gets good prices because he’s a successful RUclips. Try to order a mystery box online: one for you and the other for your alter ego a millionaire RUclipsr. Who would get the better mystery box ^
I agree. I know Fan Fusion/PCC has some hit and miss prices when it comes to games. I don't think I ever bought a game from any booths, maybe one year I did and got KH1 with the guide, but that was it. It varies from booth to booth. From what I do know they kind of jack up the prices a bit since getting a booth is typically pricey and they need to pay out of their earnings for the set up, least from what I know from people who have worked behind the scenes. I think if you really want to hit up retro video games in AZ, just go to the shops. 1Up Games in Mesa is reasonable and been to their booths multiple times at con and they have a decent selection. For me their my closest since its more middle. I live personally more towards Gilbertish area and out here we don't really have retro vide game stores or really video game stores other than Gamestop. :/ We need more mom and pop stores
$8 for a sticker like that is not bad since it seems to be vintage nintendo. Custom handmade stickers by the single sell for $3 - $4. It is a bit spendy bit I get it. I sold a hand made sticker for $13 once and it was only 5 inches tall
To be fair Japanese Super Famicom boxes are the exact same size as vhs tapes. I keep looking for plastic vhs clear boxes to protect my cib super Famicom games.
I'm pretty sure that booth where all the games were shrink-wrapped and way overpriced was at SEGE last year too. I don't know how they sell anything at those prices. No wonder they have such a good selection...
Glad the wife enjoyed that gift. Awesome Zard plush as well. Check out the Pokémon center sittings cuties plush line. They are small but nicely detailed. But beware, some can get expensive.
The Bible says that no one is a good person. We have all broken God's law the 10 commandments, we have all committed, lies, adultery, idolatry, and blasphemy. We deserve hell, but because of what Jesus did on the cross we can be forgiven. So if you Repent of your sins, change your wicked ways, and put your faith in Christ you will be written in the book of life. 👌 🙏Repentance is reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret for past wrongs, which is accompanied by commitment to and actual actions that show and prove a change for the better. .
I love that Up pin! 😍 I have been at Comicon in 2014 and 2015... Very chaotic here in Naples but still a good place where looking at gaming related stuffs!
I'm almost certain that booth you went by with all the resealed stuff was at SEGE last year as well. Absolutely ridiculous prices. I wouldn't waste my time at a place priced like that, and that didnt allow me to inspect the condition of the disc and manual.
Its pretty cool to see caleb a smaller youtuber rising so much to be getting sposnsored my companies that consistently sponsor big youtubers such as linus tech tips
Hey man I got scammed in your comment section. A whole account pretending to be you. They took over $100, my card info and probably my identification for all I know
So Phoenix was it option 1 or 2? LoL just teasing. If you have something that will accept English patches on a SD card like a RetroN5, buying the Super Famicom games for a fraction of the English prices is a good way to get higher end titles.
So Caleb there is money to be made with cartridge based games N64 especially but not selling on Amazon. There reason being us many to most are rumored to be either repos or fakes. Given I looked at Killer Instinct and all were one if those but sold like they're real, I would say cartridge games for either WhatNot sales or maybe higher end titles for Ebay.
Hey man the gamecube gambit inspired me a lot to make my own kind of wii game hunting now whenever there is a flee market close to me I’m searching for wii games today I picked up donkey kong jet race
Ive been picking up japanese pokemon shinning pearl and brilliant diamond double packs for about 30$ and switch lite dialga and palka for about 130, This good?
Awesome finds! Man I need a gex for n64! Also tried signing up for the USB drive but it keeps telling me issue with capcha which is literally just clicking im not a robot lol
Next time you’re in Southern California you need to stop at Frank and sons. It’s been around longer then comic con and comic con was actually born at Frank and sons.

Yeah for sure, they'll hit hard with the prices the first day or two, but towards the end of it they usually will make some deals or offers
Yeah dude, I got finessed so many times as a kid due to my boomer parents or siblings never wanting to use the internet to buy stuff. Luckily due to gamestop maxxing I got somewhat better deals.
The "oh crap that's what they meant" really got me lol

I’m so happy you got that charizard plush!
He's definitely a plush guy
Riff, we need a plush version of Hotwheel Ricky for Caleb. Work your magic.
It’s crazy how much wild stuff you see at these conventions
I'm pretty sure that booth where all the games were shrink-wrapped and way overpriced was at SEGE last year too. I don't know how they sell anything at those prices. No wonder they have such a good selection...
Those ppl with the mystery boxes are literally at every single convention in the United States 😆
Caleb: I'm not a plush guy
Also Caleb: I'll take that plush and that plush
Glad the wife enjoyed that gift. Awesome Zard plush as well. Check out the Pokémon center sittings cuties plush line. They are small but nicely detailed. But beware, some can get expensive.
That holy cow pic had me rolling😂 great job riff!
Caleb, I have a question. How or where do you find these video game events? Never have been to one and it looks super fun. Any info is helpful.
Google
Same never been to one really want to go to one
Yes check Google for events in your state, and look to see what's coming up throughout the year :)
this isn't even a gaming event... they just happened to have some game booths.

That '& Pikachu has a bow tie!' Had me dead lol
wolfmeme got me crying :D 8:46 thanks riff!!
I love that Up pin! 😍 I have been at Comicon in 2014 and 2015... Very chaotic here in Naples but still a good place where looking at gaming related stuffs!

I loved that edit Riff 😂
I'm almost certain that booth you went by with all the resealed stuff was at SEGE last year as well. Absolutely ridiculous prices. I wouldn't waste my time at a place priced like that, and that didnt allow me to inspect the condition of the disc and manual.
Haha Riff really made me chuckle
Will you be at Too Many Games this year ?
Its pretty cool to see caleb a smaller youtuber rising so much to be getting sposnsored my companies that consistently sponsor big youtubers such as linus tech tips
Just started watching your videos and I love them ✊🏼
Caleb At The Convention/Expo Lots To Look At And Buy Pickups Overload

Wow i was there last year and before I found the channel.

I had sold my
Loose copy for like $120 a few months ago
certain titles always have that value in them
7:05 box super famicom games do look like vhs tapes lol
So Phoenix was it option 1 or 2? LoL just teasing.
If you have something that will accept English patches on a SD card like a RetroN5, buying the Super Famicom games for a fraction of the English prices is a good way to get higher end titles.
Lmao, the cut to Riff was great.
Nice to see the family side of Caleb !
microcenter sponsor is fire. nice vid caleb
So Caleb there is money to be made with cartridge based games N64 especially but not selling on Amazon. There reason being us many to most are rumored to be either repos or fakes.

Ive been picking up japanese pokemon shinning pearl and brilliant diamond double packs for about 30$ and switch lite dialga and palka for about 130, This good?
When he “I know what you’re thinking …Caleb” narrates it reminds me of a Mormon trying to tell me Sex is a sin.
The kiwi green DS Lite looks like it should smell like kiwi
Awesome finds! Man I need a gex for n64! Also tried signing up for the USB drive but it keeps telling me issue with capcha which is literally just clicking im not a robot lol

Editor rift is funny asf

RESELLER BUYING FROM RESELLERS AT A RESELLING POST TO RESALE IT TO PEOPLE OR FUTHER RESELLERS WHO WOULD THAN RESELL IT TO OTHERS
I can't believe you're standing in someone's booth and talking crap about their prices.
And the third thing is people don’t actually dress up for comic con.
Dope video
Been watching your channel(s) for a while, and I think I have only seen your wife one other time. You guys are super cute together!
EMBRACE THE PLUSHYNESS!
Caleb! You've never played Chrono Trigger?!
Prepare to have your life changed!
