Dear Sir Retro Ghetto… Hi, I’m Ben, but you can call me Hawk. I’m a 20 year old video game collector with Autism and ADHD based in the Derbyshire area. I just wanted to thank you for being the spearhead of this community that we’ve got here, being one of my inspirations for collecting and for making the world a better place. When I started collecting for my PS2, in 2015, I never thought it would be this fun… now, a whole 8 years later and after finding your channel thanks to your Retro World Derby visit, I’m more than happy to keep soldiering on collecting… Thank you so much, sir. May the gods of the known universe bless you… -Ben, AKA: Hawk. P.S: this comment was going to be way longer, but you’d be here all week with all the positive stuff I would write. 😂
Both of you guys definitely secured the bag at the car boot lol. From his cute little hello at the beginning and seeing how excited he was over the pokemon figures warms my heart. You're without a doubt my favorite UK gaming channel on RUclips.
When I sell at car boots I say no to anyone asking if I have games before I've set the table up. I know they'll sell and I'd rather give others a chance rather than the people going every week to get cheap stuff to resell 😂. Seems so cheeky to expect me to hunt stuff out of my boot before I'm ready.
Love the nod to 24 with the overlays and sounds! Nice! Enjoy Mad Max mate - its a ripper! And your little man absolutely cleaned up with that bag of Pokemon figs!
24 👌 the best series ever made for me! Great editing especially at the start as well 👍 my text tone is the CTU phone sound lol! You did well there callum and I'd say it's an anomaly but I go to as many as you so I've no idea really lol!
What a haul! Chuffed for you! You're easily favourite collector on youtube, keep up the great work! Still not been to a carboot as the early hours put me off, but I am teetering closer and closer to dragging myself out to one 😂 Working on my Xbox 360 library and seems an ideal place to pick up things here and there!
You killed it! Lots of additions to the game room, trade value and looks like little man had a pretty great day too grabbing a bag full of mini Pokemon figures. Alice madness returns, YES! One of my favs.
“And if man wana challenge on tekken, I’ll twist em (Jin kazama, kazama, kazama” love how that ad-lib fades off. Also, in regards to extra sota, I’ve got some pieces, will let you know, pal.
Glad you gave carboots another chance, its where ive gotten some of my best stuff. Some recently that ive gotten from carboots are splatterhouse, lollipop chain saw and a ps2 console for £1 each. Also £3 for a loose cart of Pokémon fire red. That alice in wonderland game is one ive been searching for a while, nice finds and fingers crossed you are the only game hunter again next time.
You did well mate! I think the difference was that you're actually a collector. Most people looking for games are resellers. It's a free for all first thing in the morning with resellers. You managed to find a few games that they probably missed. Also, they wont go near resellers stalls. Ive found some of my best finds from resellers stalls, they dont always know prices for every game and can quite often get a bargain. Hopefully you keep heading back as it makes for great content!
Great video this 1 and some epic finds. I once found ff7 ps1 game for 50p. And just last week found manhunt2 for £1. I'll usually always find something, maybe enough to turn a 10/15quid spend into double in cex voucher plus its the thrill of the hunt. Hope you keep trying every few weeks or so dude. Keep up the great work 👍
Crackin video fella, you had a blinder the retro gaming gods were clearly smiling on you. I’m totally with you on the Witcher. I love the books but find the games really hard to stay excited about the game. I’ve been meaning to collect the Fear series for a while. Clearly I need to start frequenting car boots again. Crackin video, Keep up the good work
Great haul, I go most week and feel like I’m battling with a fair few other hunters. Still manage to come back with some bargains for the games fund. Always pick up some good DVD’s and VHS’ that hold good value but never 21 games in one go!
morning, some great finds there at that car booty, i cant believe how early it starts, as an example theres 2 near me, one starts at 9am and the other 1pm. be safe be seen
Cool! I always check out another English game collector who goes fleemarkets There is so much gold to be found in the UK its crazy😂 I CEX hussle since about 4 year around the time they finally came to the Netherlands so im always watching your videos with a smile on my face! Keep it up and if you ever around the Netherlands get at me bruv
Nicely done RG! Quite surprising that you seemed to be the only one going for the games since the stereotype online is quite different but maybe everyone just couldn’t be bothered getting out their beds at 5 in the morning! Have a good rest of your day man. 🙌
Wow! It’s definitely an anomaly 😂😂 you were the 1st one there it’s that simple early ghetto gets the games I guess 😂😂👌👌 also depends on the demographic of the people that attend if it’s people 50+ no way would they be checking for games at ALL. You’ve done well either way also it is mid month now for selling so a lot of people are skint right now. Great timing and great vlog
Little man defo won best find of the day lol some of those pokemon figs go for some good money especially the pre order figs from the games great vid mate looking forward to the vlog on sunday 😁
Im the same with the Witcher. Ive tried a few times and i still cant get into it. The same with Horizon Zero Dawn. Cracking pickups, baffled that the Carboot was quiet. The universe works in mysterious ways!!
Ahhhh man I never went to measham carboot last weekend 🤣 I always struggle getting signal there aswell so I try and take a hunch sometimes on games but some good pick ups there pal 👍🏻
Nice Hunt! What a deal for RG Junior, he has probably around 200 GBP in value with those pokemon figurines, if original. He could double check in case he has doubles he can sell and then buy other toys :D following RG steps!
Nice pickups! Great video as always. Just wondering tho, there was a copy of Metal Gear Solid on PS1 at one of the booth.... Was it not worth picking up?
@@RetroGhettothat's a hard one to say since they all have their pros and cons, but my short answer is FEAR 2, FEAR1, FEAR 3. FEAR FILES is more of an addition to FEAR1 so I won't count that separately. Definitely try them all and see what is more your style.
I experienced the exact same with Witcher 3. Tried many times to get into it but just didn’t grab me. Im not playing 10 hours or so for a game to get good 😂 I guess I just don’t get on with open world type games. It’s the same with breath of the wild - it’s just not my cup of tea, but I’m going to force myself to play through it one day!
I loved BOTW...but... I dunno, maybe W3 was too I depth... also those horse mechanics didn't help... ill try again when it gets re re re released on PS6 🤣
As a 360 collector i will always enjoy seeing you pick up 360 games. Good job on the Fear games and Alice... In case you didn't know there is 4 Fear releases on the 360 the 4th being Fear Files. Its a stand alone expansion pack from the 1st game. This one is the most expensive as it goes for 18 quid in cex
I usually get to the bootsale for 7am and its hit and miss but I have got some really good deals before. I think a faw weeks ago I Spent £35 And made a £155 cex voucher
Your hair looked immaculate for getting up that early 😅 Some bargins mate. My little bootsale has been dryer that gandys flip flops in recent weeks , nothing 😅
Yeah baby, the motherlode. You didn't do too bad there. Though maybe you've got it but I saw you passed on Genji on the PS3. I've heard good things about that game and its a first part Sony game too, so not on the 360. Great stuff, oh and my comment on your vlog from Sunday is incoming :).
Nice one Dylan, yeah I should of picked Genji up as I don't own it, it's a cheap title so I'll look into it. I'll look forward to your paragraphs my friend 😅 👊🏻
Used to love the car boots for getting good value second hand games and console bits. Not really possible now with the intense reseller community. Glad you had a fruitful morning :)
Yeah I used to frequent them more years ago. And I agree... but Sundays trip has given me a little faith.... with could soon be evaporated when I come home next week with an empty bag and a nose full of pollen 🤣
If you don't go you won't know so I go every weekend but there are multiple others I know who game hunt at the same ones so it's always first come sort of thing good to see you have changed your mind on them.
@@RetroGhetto mine doesn't open to the public till 7am so not as bad but always worth a look even if you see some mid week ones or late riser car boots always worth a punt
Good to see you pour the water then add the milk to your brew bro 😂 Carboots can be very fruitful, you definitely grabbed some great titles bro, if you keep going regular to your local carboots, that day will come when the retro gods will shine for you and that awesome proper retro find will happen lol
Feel the exact same way about The Witcher 3, it’s a game that I should love, massive open world with loads to do, but I’ve tried 3 or 3 times to get into and it does just not grab my attention :(
Hats off to you man, I know loadsa folk get up at the crack of dawn, but man, that is different level. Alice Madness Returns, amazing find man 😮 Hopefully you get more luck in the future, fingers crossed some folk have lost interest in carboots lol 😁
What is this music in your vlogs 05:18 , Me & my kids feel like we recognise one of the songs every time we watch your vlogs lol, but cant tell if its a royalty free song or a song from a game!
Witcher 3 was a strange one for me. I was like 20 to 30 hours in and i just wasnt feeling it. (I know thats ridiculous to play that much without liking it, but i was skint at the time and was playign with what i had)... Anyway, 200 hours later, i finished it and loved it So yeah, put in 200 hours pal, you might like it 😂
Once again great video mate The thing with flea markets and carboot sales is that it's just good old fashioned luck 😊 I live in Belgium and i hit up alloth of markets sometimes you can go at 6am and go home with nothing other days you go like at 9 and get away with a bag full of stuff Last sunday i got there at 10 or so didn't expect much but i still managed to get 2 pokemon switch games for 10€/piece I wish you the best of luck mate

Yes Hawk! ✊🏻
Rock on Hawk!

@@badbrilliantbothThank you! 😊
Both of you guys definitely secured the bag at the car boot lol. From his cute little hello at the beginning and seeing how excited he was over the pokemon figures warms my heart. You're without a doubt my favorite UK gaming channel on RUclips.
In our local each car that pulls in you get 10 plus people asking if they have games and generally ends in handbags at dawn 😂😂
Yeah I've seen that behaviour myself, puts me off going... people seem to leave their manners at home
When I sell at car boots I say no to anyone asking if I have games before I've set the table up. I know they'll sell and I'd rather give others a chance rather than the people going every week to get cheap stuff to resell 😂.

I don’t car boot but I think I want to now! Ha great midweek video mate
Nice one Nooney 👊🏻
Haha mate that analogy about boot sales at the end hit home with me 😂 great video mate 👍🏻🕹
😂😅 you must be old like me mate.... I find you can't go too far wrong with a cup of tea and a good video game

Are you that lazy you can't wake up at 6am
Thanks for the input 👍
Glad you have your faith restored. I still find video games every week. If you hit the grind you’ll find some gems for sure.
You killed it! Lots of additions to the game room, trade value and looks like little man had a pretty great day too grabbing a bag full of mini Pokemon figures.
Alice madness returns, YES! One of my favs.
I know ow you love it! I enjoyed it,but never finished it 😬

Na my local West Midlands car boots have a pack of game hunters that are like the hyenas in lion king - they dominate the scene
😄 🤣 great analogy, usually the same at mine tbf, just got lucky
Wow, nice find. Always a good day when the hunt went well 😊😊😊
I'm like you, never really had luck at car boot sales. This has renewed my motivation a tad, hopefully find a good one for games one day haha.
Hopefully the next one for you mate!
Mint haul! Enjoy mad Max too dope game, hold tite ChumBucket!
Literally, I've never seen anyone stur their tea ANTI clockwise 😂😂
Awesome video man total gamble whether to go or not but definitely worth it brilliant content 🎉

Awesome finds, Mad Max is very good make sure to play it soon! I've just started Just Cause as well after playing 2, 3 and 4. It seems decent enough!

Love a car boot! There's just something boss about rummaging through people's old shite looking for a banger 😂
Nice, I've had some cracking boot fair hauls this year
There's one more Fear disc for the 360 - Fear Files. A standalone expansion for the first game, backwards compatible on thr Series X.

Fear collection alone is a absolute steel they hold there prices in cex
Gets an instant like for the 24 tune
Duuuudddee Alice Great game need to get that again soon nice pick 🤙
Really fun game!
spent so much time on that SAW and Bioshock
Nice pickups! Great video as always. Just wondering tho, there was a copy of Metal Gear Solid on PS1 at one of the booth.... Was it not worth picking up?
He had that individually priced....and went out of his way to tell me how much its worth these days..... that was enough for me to lose interest 😅
Great pickup on the 3 F.E.A.R. games, really amazing horror FPS series!
Yeah really happy to of found the trilogy, which one would you say is the best?
@@RetroGhettothat's a hard one to say since they all have their pros and cons, but my short answer is FEAR 2, FEAR1, FEAR 3. FEAR FILES is more of an addition to FEAR1 so I won't count that separately. Definitely try them all and see what is more your style.
