Massive Haul at Yakima's Biggest Yard Sale 2017 

John Riggs: RIGG'd Games What will you trade me for Neverhood for the PC? It is in Excellent Condition.. 😊

One I've been trying out this season is the rebound ask. Sometimes I'll get someone who says they still play their *insert system*, so I'll follow up with "are you looking to get rid of any of the games you don't play much?" No luck yet, *but* the season is just starting, so hopefully it'll work somewhere down the line.

John Riggs: RIGG'd Games My tip would be to find a problem with the game such as a sticker that won't come off or a cracked case, and use that as an argument to take the price down. Great video as always!

I was at a sale yesterday that had two Pokemon DS games. I asked if they had any more games and the guy went inside and came out with Mega Man 2 and a couple 360 games. Then his wife said there was more and went inside and came out with a box of about 25 N64 and GB games, including Dragon Warrior III GBC and Snowboard Kids 2. I left my number for them to call if they find any more! My tip, besides "ASK", is "LOOK". Plenty of times I have asked if they have any games and they say "No", only for me to turn around and find some. Flip open boxes, look in plastic bags, unzip camera cases. Just a couple days ago, the LAST sale of the day, I opened a drawstring plastic bag to find a Genesis Nomad and a stack of games! I have found lots of Game Boys and games in plain zip cases. Most of the time retro systems will be in old cardboard boxes on the ground, especially if they think it's not worth much. There won't be a big flashing arrow that says "Video Games".

its the only way I find games now 95% of the time due to all the crazy overly early early birds. but even asking doesnt work as well as it used to as many others are doing it now.

The Guardian sleezy salesman vocabulary

totally! 'tis why I use it, sarcastically.

LOL!!! You just got "Rigg'd"

secret of mana, mysti quest final fantasy 2 and 3 pretty much paid for everything .

Probably impromptu staged. If I were the seller and a buyer offered me a fair price in exchange for pretending I was selling it to him for cheap on camera, I would jump at it any day. If that's not what happened, then that seller is simply foolish. Which is possible as well.

pearlmax Or he doesn't devote his life to knowing video game stuff. Even as a buyer, I've thrown some pretty ridiculous quotes out that people will accept. Come home, look up prices, and find out that I got a great deal. Also, you would be surprised at the amount of people who are just trying to clean clutter out of their homes and are almost willing to pay you to get rid of some stuff.

Sure looks like he devotes his life to Nintendo stuff from that collection he's got. Who buys all the good games for the NES, SNES and N64 and then doesn't know anything about them and wants to get rid of them? Maybe this guy, I don't know, I really don't care.

But that was decades ago. Sure, back then he would have been really into it, and probably would have known that he could get pretty good prices for his stuff. Now he probably hasn't touched the stuff in over a decade, doesn't know the market that exists for these things, and didn't do any price checking. He has a job and a family and a million other things going on in his life, and by the amount of things that he's selling, it looks like he just wants to downsize. It's completely understandable why he wants to get rid of them and why he doesn't know the value that they still hold.

MetalJesusRocks once I'm done with my house you should come do a tour man shoot me a message sometime and come down to Lakewood

ayy its metal Jesus rocks loving the intro!

MetalJesusRocks Yes! Lol!

I love u guys both

And my name is Jesus so

Bobby8451 it works either way 😂

i love em

It reminded me of skyrim when my brother dropped about 70 items in a shop and the guy picked them all up and said one mans junk is another mans treasure and we laughed a bit. :[)

herohunter81 no

Bobby8451 *trash not junk but u were close enough

TheAbsol you’ll get there in a few years

Wow same

So get a job!!! Lol

Yep! Mine's sitting on top of my CRT right now :D

he really needs to get Battle Clash 1&2 to really enjoy that Super Scope

Yoshis Safari is a great game too

magnus87 I picked up Yoshi's Safari last year. I'd kind of like to get all the Super Scope games.

How did he not know that?

Thanks! Yeah, even when I didn't have my 'dad bod' and worked out 'n stuff, I always had those cheeks.

im the same iv got a gym but its like a spooky hounted room now hahhaha. thanks for the reply john!

sounds like a shitty city.

haha, no doubt

DixieBoy380 i was surprised he didn't own a model 1 genesis, it's the best one to own sound-wise

true, but not all model 1 are equal. some the later model 1's are basically model 2 in model 1 shells. Apparently Sega did alot of revisions with them.

DixieBoy380 you are correct. I hooked up a cable from the headphone jack to my TV on my model. Gotta love Sega.

jealous

Sweet! I never see 32x system ever.

I havent, either! Im visiting my hometown for the summer, and its small, meaning little competition! Ive picked up some great stuff on my trips. Mega man 1 for 8$, cdi with Zelda: Wand of Gamelon for $20, and much more. Im always excited for these visits haha.

I got 2 Genesis model 2s, a 32x and a Shea cd model 2 at the Everett swap meet in 2004ish for $20. All that was missing was the cord for the 32x but I found one of those at value village for 99¢.

Frank West no 1 cares what you say you found put a video up

Jarrett Ball you’re just jealous

tmpardi77 "People like you", whats that supposed to mean. I bet if u had the opportunity to be there early, you wouldnt hesitate to do the same thing. Heck, I wouldnt.

Ricky T. What's that supposed to mean? Well I think I explained that in my first sentence. Reading comprehension! But no I wouldn't do the same if I were in his position, simply because its something I am against and I have a conscience.

ok then, well I'm glad you think that way. If me and you were in the same swap meet at that time, then I would be glad u waited it out. I would gladly take and add all those games to my collection. Just don't be disappointed because u missed out on the games by having a golden conscience.

Stay classy.

tmpardi77 lol. You have a conscience? So being able to pick up video games by being there early is now morally wrong? You act like someone is taking your job or denying you a basic human right.

Metalpug79 for a comment like that, there are... no excuses.

Andy Aldrich 🤘😎

I would if I could FIND some more pick-ups!

HYPE WARRIOR!! That's what I was saying the whole time. I never find these so called RU-vid deals. Bad example would be finding Little Sampson at some 90 year old lady's flea market table (just that game under clothes that they somehow randomly decided to move) and she would be like "ummmmm let's go ¢0.02"

T.B. Hiplo The 2600 is very primitive and unless your from that time or really appreciate the hobby it's not very fun. I grew up with an NES. The NES changed everything. Games became an adventure. More than one screen blasting blocks. That's why Zelda is so revered. It will definitely stand the test of time. It's the greatest console ever in my Opinion. I'm not alone there either. The games on it started all kinds of categories of gaming. I could go on all day about it but that's my opinion.
