Sure, buying a bunch of used games and getting them in the mail is satisfying. But you know what is more satisfying? Taking stickers off in one clean, slow sweep.
As an Amazon seller myself, there are many times where Amazon won't let you list an item as new. So many times I will list an item as Used Like-new in order to sell it at all even though it is technically brand new and never opened.
Eww Oppp who are you talking to. They are the sellers lol. And they’re under shooting it. Amazon says like new and the case looks like it was someone’s lunch.
I'm a former Amazon seller and I always used the Ron Popeil method of selling (set it and forget it) and I'd watch people undercut each other to be the LOWEST price. Why? Why waste your time selling for the LOWEST price? Isn't selling on there supposed to be to make you money? If not for Amazon purging my grandfathered selling account I'd probably still be selling at least my personal collection items. But once they purged my account that allowed me to disburse the money made to myself at any time versus the two week waiting period nonsense I said screw it and only use my account for buying now.
@Re Up I left it inactive for more than a year. I had ZERO products listed anymore and it was basically just an empty storefront. So they very graciously purged it. 🙄

The irony of the advert before this video being about making money on Amazon isn't lost on me. When you buy used from anywhere it can be new and sealed, sealed with loose disc or used as replacement for toilet roll. It's a lottery.
I semi-regularly purchase used from Amazon, and it turns out pretty good in general... For "mint" collectors might be a little less valuable, but for gaming and finding some hard to come by games it's very decent
North Dwarf Actually when it comes to PS4 games you don't really have to worry about them not working if the get sarch or dirty if you going to play them because i have PS4 games that are get that work fine after you clean them I think the only thing you have to really worry about are cracks that a big in game data part of the discs or if their completely crack.
Fun fact, as an Amazon seller - certain things you can’t actually list as ‘new’, video games is one of them. Some do let you do it, but popular games from major publishers like Sony straight out don’t let you list as ‘new’ unless you’ve got specific permission to sell as an official distributor. That’s why you find a lot of new sealed games listed as like new instead.
I really admire you Ryan :-) Your Quality and professionalism is just insanely good!! Even when doing something as simple as an unboxing video haha. You've really inspired me to keep going on RUclips! Greetings from Kenya! Keep up the good work bro!!!!

Amazon sellers are so hit or miss. Usually, I have a lot of luck with Japanese sellers who I import my stuff from. They cover their products very well and are very understanding when I contact them if I have a problem. However, some sellers in the US are a little....deceptive? Case in point, bought a copy of Resi Evil 2 Remake for my birthday. Amazon was out of stock for a while, so I bought it used from a seller with a “Like New” listing. It came three days later. It was a redbox copy just put into a DVD case. It had smudges all over the back. Wasn’t a happy Birthday boy.
The priority’s of this guys are so messed up, Worries about cases instead of checking for scratches? for smudge marks? but no he worries about a after market case that probably came from game stop.
There are 2 tips on the loading screens for rolling to get a speed boost and for a side shift, I use rolls all the time but hardly ever see the need for the shift. It's a great game, one of my favorites, I've pretty much played every entry in the series but it can be hardcore which is probably why the series fizzled out and Sony shut down the studio that made it.
@@paulsit3624 I am not gonna lie; I hated Wipeout at first. But since reading the tips of the loading screens, I grew liking the Wipeout series. It's no Burnout 3 but they are fun to play, man.
You clearly haven't played an actual "Poor Game" if you are calling Andromeda that. Granted, it's the weakest entry of the Series when it comes to the Story and Characters but by far has the best Visuals, Gameplay and a fantastic Open-World.
Joker In The Gamer Chair Its a poor game. Story was stupid,pointless.Gameplay and ai,poor. U can literally steamroll the game on normal. But the loyalty missions and endgame content are pretty good. Better than the main missions themselves
Andromeda is not a bad game really it's just EA blame Nintendo for selling botw like hotcakes for it's failure and they abandoned story expansions to make galaxy of Andromeda more interesting than it was. The game only had one intelligent race that was so called native to Andromeda and the galaxy is filled with plenty empty voids that made the game boring in the most part. The game lack and cities compared to trilogy and the story and most of the characters were mostky meh compared to the past cast especially when it came to relationships for Scott Ryder 😪.
Someone actually got sued by the publisher for trying to sell their unopened copy of a game as "New" on Amazon. That's why all the unopened games are listed "Used -Like New". It happened in the last 2 years I believe.
WipeOUT is one of the greatest PS exclusives. I played all of them from PS1 to PS4. What put people off this game are the overall difficulty and how super hard it is to get trophies in that game plus it is one of those games that requires A LOT of practice and dedication.
Hey Ryan, where do you buy replacement cases? I have a dozen or so PS4 games I want to replace the cases I have for new ones. Also, I’m the same way about cases, box art, and NO PS hits! Thanks!
Thanks guys. I didn’t realize Ryan had all that info in the vid description. I had seen those DuBois ones but I thought they were kinda expensive just for cases. I guess if you want the best quality you have to pay for it. Thanks again for the help.
I just ordered 2 used games from Amazon Warehouse in "Very good" condition, but after seeing your "Like new" copy of Mass Effect, I am scared of what I m going to receive...
I recently made my first Amazon used game purchase so I didn't know what to expect and that Wipeout collection was one of them. I was a bit worried as the listing said it may not include original case and artwork but I was pleasantly surprised to get one in pretty good condition only the code had been used but no biggie. The other game being Bust a Move 3ds didn't turn out so good but it was understandable as it was a launch title from way back. Although in the original case it had seen better days with dents and nicks all over the clear plastic and inlay sheet but it was nice to see it still had the manual. So very much a gamble, a game of luck and life is like a box of chocolates..........
Been ordering ps4 games from Amazon since lockdown first started got a good collection build up only one game i was really looking forward to that I can't play is guilty gear xrd 2 keeps saying Everytime it's starts i need to have the original game first about to add grandblue fantasy versus to my collection 😊

@@realtime8892 Unsure but one time a seller actually showed one of their items on Amazon. When I asked what condition of the ps vita is the seller actually showed it to me which it looked in great condition.
You can have a brand new looking case and artwork, but a scratched disc. I know he collects, but the game itself should be top priority. You can easily replace cases.
Dude you forgot to check the disc quality of each game, that is one of the most important things to me when buying used. You can replace a cracked case but if that disc is jacked up you have to return it which sucks.
The 1st used game and he doesnt look at the actual disc for condition? Then complain that it was listed as like new, but only looking over the box. Like new refers to the disc. You dont play the box it comes in.
PS4 game discs are incredibly durable, unless it is cracked it will almost always work. Plus his a collector & the case is what is most important to collectors.
I was recently looking it up and they since the final update the game has been vastly improved and is a definite play they said it's a little slow in the beginning but picks up steam as the story progresses.
@@JoshMarshain no mate not at all pretty straight forward. There's a couple of collect certain things but you don't have to get them all and you tend. To naturally get them as you do story!
Getting anything from the Amazon Warehouse is a bad idea. Last one I ordered was a book, but upon arrival it looked like the book was run over by a forklift, and listed as "like new".
That copy of Hidden Agenda (at 1:04) still has part of the Target clearance sticker on the front cover of it. Along with That's You, which went as low as $3 a copy there (or 0.99¢ at Best Buy) it was part of one of the more recent clearance cycles. Currently Judgment is as low as $17.98 there AND the electric purple Dualshock 4 is $19.48 IF you can find one.
The Driveclub disc is going to have some value in the future (I guess). Since the game got delisted from PSN last year and the disc is the only way to acquire it since then. I don't know
Maybe. It isn't outside the realm of possibility. Personally, I actually forgot the game even existed. If I ever come by a copy I will try to remember to pick it up.
Hey thank you for the great videos! Keep up the great work. Unboxing are fun to watch and is a good way to pass while doing chores around the house. I Would like to say that you are not alone. I love having original cases, no greatest hits, would prefer having original booklets, and no cracks or scratches. Good score on the sealed PS4 titles.
9:47 I bought this game brand new at “Five Below” a couple of years ago for $5. There were tons of copies, and I’m pretty sure they still have them (at least at my local store). I still haven’t even booted up the game tbh 😂
Hes just as bored of the rest of us, really good games have dried up, there hasnt been any decent releases for months to get our teeth into and now we're scraping the barrel.
Smh remember when games1 actually came with a lite booklet guide now all we can look forward to is box art ....and games are much more expensive yet they continue to find ways to give us less! 😑
I’m all for not having manuals anymore. Yeah it was cool and all, but nowadays it’s kind of pointless. The only information you might want is the controls, and a lot of publishers put the controls on the other side of the box art. Plus, this saves paper. Instead of printing out a 20 page manual for millions of copies of games that the vast majority of people won’t even open, they just don’t do it. Plus plus, it makes those memories that much better because we don’t experience it anymore.
I remember last year when I bought Gravity rush ps4 edition from Amazon it was used and it was the European version and it was compatible with my ps4 and its really hard to get physical.
Yeah target legit just like didn't have it at launch and i was very annoyed and after a few days I just got it on PSN. But I had a $100 target gift card at the time so it sucked
@@mannyduran8458 because you are a child who doesn't have the maturity to care. And if you're going to call someone a boomer you should know what it means first.
Reading seller conversations on the amazon condition guidelines is extremely frustrating. A huge chunk of sellers argue that their games work fine, so they shouldn’t be buried in the “Acceptable” category where they won’t sell. If you’re not selling old ass cartridges, everything has to be there for the game to be complete in box w/manual and art, aka good. It makes sorting useless, and it makes buying used games without seller pictures and condition notes a huge gamble.
Ismail Raza I couldn’t really get in to it , I did a few missions then I just went off of it why I don’t know but I think I definitely give it another go
I love those content. I always make sure to watch the ads to help you out, not sure how much it offsets it but I figured if quite a few do the same it'll help you out. Every little helps right? Man some of those cases we're heavily damaged and labelled as "used- like new". Certainly an eye opener when purchasing used goods, Amazon or not xD
"Obnoxiously overpackaged game." Has to make one cut(First World problems). Same guy if it got damaged..."I can't believe they didn't ship it in a box!" 🤣
I thought it was a joke at first when you opened the Driveclub package and started complaining about the dust. Then you put the box down and I thought "oh ok, I guess he'll leave the disc examinations and playtesting for later". But no, it never came. Don't really know what to say, mate... I don't think you really understand the principle behind reselling games.
PS4 discs are incredibly durable, unless it's cracked it will almost always work. Plus his a collector & cases are an important part of it, the discs rarely need checking on Blu-ray format, it's only older games where it matters most
I purchase way more games than I'll ever be able to play and most games just get put into my collection right after I take them out of the package and probably won't get played, most people will probably consider it a waste of money but collecting games is actually more fun than playing them but that just might be because I don't have much time to play them but I still very much want them.
No. You're judging the games on the wrong criteria. It's about the condition of the disc. Not the case. In comparison that's irrelevant. This is why ps2 era was so difficult to buy used. Tons of scratches made the games useless. I Can't watch this whole thing.
Sure, buying a bunch of used games and getting them in the mail is satisfying. But you know what is more satisfying?

I noticed you never check the discs for scratches when buying used games, would be the first thing I check.
You can have a brand new looking case and artwork, but a scratched disc. I know he collects, but the game itself should be top priority. You can easily replace cases.
@@chaddeez8446 Exactly my thinking.
@@Martin_Skywatcher yup man
Really appreciate it: "I'm all for lowering our need for plastics". It's great to be concern.
Vinnie P.B. Then buy digital...
@@Moped_Mike I've been doing this for several years, already.
Dude you forgot to check the disc quality of each game, that is one of the most important things to me when buying used. You can replace a cracked case but if that disc is jacked up you have to return it which sucks.
It's Blu-ray, very rarely do they not work unless they're cracked, no need to really check them
Blu Ray is really hard to scratch more than likely those discs all look brand new
If its sealed doesnt mean its new, you can easily reseal it
Yep that's what happened to me i called the third party seller out on it
How can u tell if a game has been resealed?
I’m pretty sure a big part of the reasoning of the like new listing is the quality of the disc
Hey Mystic, what about a video showing your entire game collection? Maybe a series of videos covering each gen.
Mystic you should make a video where you buy PS4 or ps3 games from wish and see how that goes LIKE SO HE CAN SEE
You’re right, eBay is the prime source for great deals on video games. By the way, I got Anthem from Gamestop for only $5, brand new. 😎
So did I.
Doesn’t eBay scam people ?
@@biskethead7584 No, there’s a sense of protection due to eBay’s favorable buyers’ rights.
Alright my bad for the late response thanks you
I always wondered this as I was unsure of the conditions in which the games would arrive. Thanks for this. Please do more.
The 1st used game and he doesnt look at the actual disc for condition? Then complain that it was listed as like new, but only looking over the box. Like new refers to the disc. You dont play the box it comes in.
PS4 game discs are incredibly durable, unless it is cracked it will almost always work. Plus his a collector & the case is what is most important to collectors.
Blu Ray is really hard to scratch more then likely all those discs look brand new
The fact you opened days gone right after concrete genie is pretty cool in the coincidental way considering concrete genie is featured in Days Gone.
Days gone is just one of those games everyone should play.
I was recently looking it up and they since the final update the game has been vastly improved and is a definite play they said it's a little slow in the beginning but picks up steam as the story progresses.
@@lucky1up856 great story mate. You should buy it. Got platinum
@@Infected. how's the platinum? any bs "play on every difficulty" trophies in there?
@@JoshMarshain no mate not at all pretty straight forward. There's a couple of collect certain things but you don't have to get them all and you tend. To naturally get them as you do story!
3:30 you're right about that. if I were to collect physical games their cases and boxarts better be pristine.
12:00 HAHAHHAHAHAHA
Getting anything from the Amazon Warehouse is a bad idea. Last one I ordered was a book, but upon arrival it looked like the book was run over by a forklift, and listed as "like new".
That copy of Hidden Agenda (at 1:04) still has part of the Target clearance sticker on the front cover of it. Along with That's You, which went as low as $3 a copy there (or 0.99¢ at Best Buy) it was part of one of the more recent clearance cycles. Currently Judgment is as low as $17.98 there AND the electric purple Dualshock 4 is $19.48 IF you can find one.
The Driveclub disc is going to have some value in the future (I guess). Since the game got delisted from PSN last year and the disc is the only way to acquire it since then. I don't know
Maybe. It isn't outside the realm of possibility. Personally, I actually forgot the game even existed. If I ever come by a copy I will try to remember to pick it up.
Essentially you would only buy the game if its 'valuable'??
Hey thank you for the great videos! Keep up the great work. Unboxing are fun to watch and is a good way to pass while doing chores around the house.
I Would like to say that you are not alone. I love having original cases, no greatest hits, would prefer having original booklets, and no cracks or scratches. Good score on the sealed PS4 titles.
9:47 I bought this game brand new at “Five Below” a couple of years ago for $5. There were tons of copies, and I’m pretty sure they still have them (at least at my local store). I still haven’t even booted up the game tbh 😂
These kind of videos i like, i can relate to buying games and be excited to peel the stickers off and open it. The feeling is just amazing
I got cracked shit when I selected new, twice actually, so I got some replacement cases for next time 😅
4:12 Where have I heard this?
Hes just as bored of the rest of us, really good games have dried up, there hasnt been any decent releases for months to get our teeth into and now we're scraping the barrel.
At least in the coming months we've some great games coming out
I am still waiting for an up to date version of “Ridge Racer” for the PS5.
Smh remember when games1 actually came with a lite booklet guide now all we can look forward to is box art ....and games are much more expensive yet they continue to find ways to give us less! 😑
They do. Theses are used remember lol
I’m all for not having manuals anymore. Yeah it was cool and all, but nowadays it’s kind of pointless. The only information you might want is the controls, and a lot of publishers put the controls on the other side of the box art. Plus, this saves paper. Instead of printing out a 20 page manual for millions of copies of games that the vast majority of people won’t even open, they just don’t do it. Plus plus, it makes those memories that much better because we don’t experience it anymore.
The circular scratch on WW2 it's from when it's resurfaced that's where the clamp goes
I remember last year when I bought Gravity rush ps4 edition from Amazon it was used and it was the European version and it was compatible with my ps4 and its really hard to get physical.
You find tons of them in Europe
Yeah target legit just like didn't have it at launch and i was very annoyed and after a few days I just got it on PSN. But I had a $100 target gift card at the time so it sucked
Dude I swear I love when my cases are in great condition I’m always collecting
Best playstation channel 💯
your used game unboxings are so much fun keep them coming
1:20 drive club still has the best rain of any racing game 👌
It also has more things locked behind a little shopping trolly than any game I have ever seen. I felt like I had bought a demo.
Eclectic Jon 101 yea I really don’t care lol I have no idea why you even wrote this 🤷♂️
It's called "interaction".
It's a bit like having a conversation in the real world.
What a strange thing to have to explain.
Eclectic Jon 101 idc boomer
@@mannyduran8458 because you are a child who doesn't have the maturity to care. And if you're going to call someone a boomer you should know what it means first.
Reading seller conversations on the amazon condition guidelines is extremely frustrating. A huge chunk of sellers argue that their games work fine, so they shouldn’t be buried in the “Acceptable” category where they won’t sell. If you’re not selling old ass cartridges, everything has to be there for the game to be complete in box w/manual and art, aka good. It makes sorting useless, and it makes buying used games without seller pictures and condition notes a huge gamble.
Trust me 2019 most underrated game Days gone, it's surprisingly soo good.
Agreed
Ismail Raza I couldn’t really get in to it , I did a few missions then I just went off of it why I don’t know but I think I definitely give it another go
I love those content. I always make sure to watch the ads to help you out, not sure how much it offsets it but I figured if quite a few do the same it'll help you out. Every little helps right?
Man some of those cases we're heavily damaged and labelled as "used- like new". Certainly an eye opener when purchasing used goods, Amazon or not xD
Gotta play Days Gone man! The gameplay and characters are awesome
Quality of the item is based on the disc, not the packaging.
Days Gone is pretty decent game. It’s not my type of game though so I didn’t necessarily LOVE it.
Can you please do a video on how to tell if something is in good condition on Amazon and if it's new or used? I would really appreciate it.
"Obnoxiously overpackaged game." Has to make one cut(First World problems). Same guy if it got damaged..."I can't believe they didn't ship it in a box!" 🤣
Love these types of videos you do. We don’t get those mystery packages in the UK so interesting to watch and find the surprise gems.
I thought it was a joke at first when you opened the Driveclub package and started complaining about the dust. Then you put the box down and I thought "oh ok, I guess he'll leave the disc examinations and playtesting for later". But no, it never came. Don't really know what to say, mate... I don't think you really understand the principle behind reselling games.
PS4 discs are incredibly durable, unless it's cracked it will almost always work. Plus his a collector & cases are an important part of it, the discs rarely need checking on Blu-ray format, it's only older games where it matters most
video like this is very attractive. Keep doing more unboxing videos man
Who taught this guy how to use a box cutter? Makes me nervous
On amazon sometimes your restricted to only sell used so they just send new copies and take the hit
ok you just went down in my ratings and i sub to your patrion lol - play days gone ASAP lol
Alan Morton too long
Ryan: Why is there a sticker on the box art!???!
News Channels: There has been 50 new cases of coronavirus.
There's no way you play every game you buy lol. There's just not enough hours in the day.
Jay Schneider then isn’t it a good thing there’s tomorrow too
Some of the games he buys are just for his collection I suppose
I purchase way more games than I'll ever be able to play and most games just get put into my collection right after I take them out of the package and probably won't get played, most people will probably consider it a waste of money but collecting games is actually more fun than playing them but that just might be because I don't have much time to play them but I still very much want them.
Covid-19 "Hold my Beer"
Next time someone ask me why I prefer used games stores over just buying off of Amazon, I'm gonna send them this video.
No. You're judging the games on the wrong criteria. It's about the condition of the disc. Not the case. In comparison that's irrelevant. This is why ps2 era was so difficult to buy used. Tons of scratches made the games useless. I Can't watch this whole thing.
Wow good catch on the tekken 7 ps4 case, not to many people would have spotted that
never buy cd from this guy, he keeps rotating the disc in the case...
Yeah, he's more concerned about the case...wtf
Lucky i really want days gone but it cost to much
"I have never seen one that big before" : That's what she said
What gets me is that he says he wants to use less plastic but yet all his games are in plastic cases haha 🤣
4:12 that’s what she said
I’m also all about box art and cases. Spines are especially important to me
