    Is this going to be an actual series or a one time thing because it was really interesting seeing you make a profit and build up your collection

    • @TimeLagGaming
      @TimeLagGaming  4 года назад +4

      The plan was to make it series if people liked it enough which it seems like a lot of people did! So thanks for the feedback. I’m going to keep my eye out for more deals to do a second episode!

    I would totally do stuff like this I just live in the middle of nowhere though so I can't use apps like offer up. Anyways awesome series idea Adam it's actually really interesting to watch! When you where opening the Wii U I forgot how many things actually come with it 😂 the switch made things simpler.

    • @rusty8311
      @rusty8311 4 года назад +1

      Random Entertainment You can still ship items on offer up, you’ll just have to pay an additional shipping fee and deal with securely shipping items out.

    • @TimeLagGaming
      @TimeLagGaming  4 года назад

      You might be surprised what you can find even if you don’t live in very populated area. You just gotta find the service that’s most commonly used in your area wether that’s OfferUp, LetGo, Craigslist etc. And if there’s still no luck then like Rusty said you can have things shipped to you.
      And yeah that’s true about the Wii U. I miss all the little accessories that came with stuff 😆

    This was a good video. I do the same, but with Pokémon cards. I don’t collect my video games as a hobby, just buy what I like for fun. But since I’m still interested in Nintendo stuff in general (as I’m sure all you subscribers are), this was very interesting and informative. Nicely done.
    And I would definitely add that the longer a listing is up, the better chance they’ll accept a lower price deal. Though I guess that’s to be expected lol.

    • @TimeLagGaming
      @TimeLagGaming  4 года назад

      Thank you Rusty! It’s cool to hear you do it with Pokémon cards. I’ve heard card collecting has come back in a big way recently.
      I appreciate the feedback and glad to hear you found it interesting and informative!
      And that’s definitely true. Some people get impatient and want to sell it fast so they’ll go way lower. That’s a great point, I’ll try to bring it up in the next one. There’s so many different aspects of this stuff I could dive into for different episodes so it would be great to keep doing these.
      Thanks again for the comment and sorry for the late reply lol

      I’ll definitely try to do that. It’s much harder though as current gen stuff it typically priced fairly or overpriced. I do see underpriced Switch stuff but it gets snatched up super quick. But yeah my plan is to do Switch stuff eventually when I can snag a good deal.

      Then you gotta try other apps and marketplaces. Some will be more heavily used then others. There’s LetGo, Craigslist, FaceBook Marketplace, and lots more. And OfferUp, Mercari and EBay all have shipping so you can find stuff that newly posted and get it shipped for cheap

      You can get more on OfferUp, typically. What I’ll usually do is list on OfferUp and if it doesn’t sell and GameStop has a good enough price I’ll do GameStop. But really it just depends on the games. Some games will have great prices for GameStop trade in and some won’t. So try OfferUp first
