I just wanna say I don't even play video games anymore but I get so excited when a new video of yours comes out. It's even better now with the on-point editing!! Love the channel keep up the great content!!
I remember going to these used stores when I was younger when used games were no more than $20....I could barely get one...can only imagine the kids now a days that want to get used games but can’t because they’re priced almost at resell
I have a pawn shop by me that checks prices before selling and it just seems like a terrible way to do business. Like I don't want to wait for you to handle every other customer just to tell me the price of a game which will probably be too high anyway. Considering what they pay for these games when they get brought in you would think it would be better for everyone to just price it when you put it out and not worry about it or at least do a weekly inventory so the prices are listed on the game.
Yeah I agree, and most of the time they will ask for ebay value or above, and if I wanted to pay eBay prices I'd just buy it off of eBay. I understand trying to stay in business, but sometimes these places just charge too much
@@aidetund6263 I hate hearing anyone cite ebay prices in person, If you are pricing based on ebay you should factor in the shipping and fees and discount that off the price since in the end we all win in that situation.
The power adapter they were using for that Switch probably wasn't good enough to get it turned on from completely dead. It probably needed the OEM brick.
Yeaaa that's the same thing I was thinking that power brick looked like it wouldn't even have enough power out put to even charge most cell phones these days
Was going to say the same thing. I've used many adapters for the Switch systems, and alot of them don't work. Best to use the original adapter (which it should include anyway!)...
In the last week I have found your channel, realized you live the same place I'm from, and vaguely saw my house in a video, then realized you're the reason Game Exchange next to La Taquiza never has anything good anymore. It's a weird feeling lol. Check out La Taquiza though they arguably are the best local Lexington-only restaurant.
in my experience , the og switch would not charge up on anything that wasnt the official charger. ive tried using reg usb c on different adapters, and at best they keep the battery percentage at the same level while plugged in, no charging done. im guessing thats what happened there, the switch was dead, and not receiving enough power to charge. bet you it works fine
My switch charges fine using my phone charger, because sometimes I'm just not near the dock and I want to charge it so I use my phone charger. Probably depends on the charger
Generally, that's their last "new" copy. Drives me nuts, especially when I order from GS online and receive an opened game. As a result, I no longer buy games from GS that are really cheap or being clearanced out.
I love you Aaron but Role back the cut aways. Its not Calebs thing or why we are here. We come to you for that. Your energy is awesome and I appreciate you. xxx
Raising Cane's is a Louisiana based company. I've been to the original location several times. I've recently become a binge watcher. A lot of great content!
Always enjoy your videos ... whilst i was watching this i saw the pokeman games so paused video and rang my nephew ... his mum answered and i casually asked 'did you keep all the pokemon games?' to which they answered 'yes all boxed with booklets'. After i got up from my dead faint i said you may want to get them looked at!!! So ty in advance 💙❤💜
Related to the odd Wii sports pricing , my disk replay in iowa has its pricing all over the place , convinced the employees just use their best judgement and throw a price , bough a new 3ds xl for 119 and multiple $25+ games for like under 10
Vintage Stock is the worst chain out there. You won’t be able to buy many things there that aren’t already at over resale price. Every now and then something slips through, but the only thing you can consistently make profit on if you put the hours in is going through their magic cards. Also they have no return policy for things that don’t work. If you press them enough they will do a return but only for store credit. To get your money back you would have to do a chargeback on them. They are utter trash and should be avoided at all costs. Another thing is they constantly take in counterfeit games so you would have to be very careful in what you buy there that’s cartridge-based.
I really miss Disc Replay here in Lex. It was a regular stop for me. And then it was just gone one day. I haven't really found anyplace since that had quite the amount of inventory that they had.
Arizona has to be the best we have everything on your list we might be one of the only places that has raising cane's, in-n-out, white castle, Freddie's stake burgers and a single stake and shake. Time for Phoenix resale to visit Phoenix AZ
The switch lite probably worked, but the cable they were using looked like a standard phone charger. I've had my switch take 30 minutes to power on using an official one when it's completely dead.
GameStop does the “NEW” stock without the plastic. I had a whole conversation with the employee on duty. It was a dumb conversation. They do it so the case and art are shown but the game isn’t there to be stolen… in plastic, people would just stealing.
Back in the day vintage stock used to be awesome. Circa 2007ish. After a while it fell into the same trap as gamestop and other stores did. It became super corporate. They dropped the buy in prices to nothing. Then started charging primo prices for stuff. What made all of this worse is, when the gaming market exploded. They doubled/ tripled prices on used games.
I wish that were true, it’s too bad it’s just a marketing gimmick, Farm fresh should be replaced by lab altered, their food is full of artificial flavors, colors, & ingredients
@@PatrickM-dm6sf even if the whole farm fresh stuff isn’t true, the food is still really good. Way better than Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, even five guys tbh.
Thats my vintage stock! cool to see you go through one of my stores, for what its worth your luck there is as good as mine! Other vintage stocks do better
We have vintage stocks out here and they are pretty terrible so im glad you agreed. Cartridge games never work. Overpriced disc games. Sign on the door that says we do repairs but then everything i ask about they can't do it. Always having bad experiences there.
From my experience with trying to sell new unopened games, some game stores won't accept games that are still wrapped, in the case that they could be "stolen". So they have to be opened first before they can buy them, in that case I guess they would be still considered "new". But how would a buyer know that am I right? I don't like it one bit lol
White Castle are so good, they cost like $1 for a slider now days which is insane though. Taco Bell is great if your broke and need quick calories, can get vegetarian options that don’t have dog meat in them also
always keep an eye out for the light and dark traps. there are a few imaginator crystals that are worth 50 or so. the ones that came in the expansion sets. usually they slip by pawn shops radar. blackout and sunspot for trap team are also 100 each. i had both in my hand for 7 dollars each at ebgames like 5 years ago. figured i would grab them later. boy the regret i have now. i also see a couple of burn cycles for super chargers. that is the last i need to complete that set. i can never find it in the wild. and that is the only time i will buy them.
I recently discovered a new retro game store in my area, kind of flew under my radar, and they are pretty cool. They also specialize in repairs, they were originally just a computer repair store before also selling games, and they have some pretty cool stuff
About those brand new Switch games that aren't sealed, is it possible that they put some anti-theft thingy inside the case ? (even if they are already inside those big plastic cases ?)
I never see sealed switch games on Australia, even pre orders that are put straight out the back without storing the cartridge elsewhere. But I've bought a couple of the Asia region exclusives, they always come sealed, and a few UK/EU games have come sealed too.
I’m pretty sure that the disc replay by me has been found out. For a few years with their DVD area, it was all hidden gem horror movies. They do crazy deals like buy three DVDs for $3.33 and get three for free. I’ve come across some B list horror movies with limited releases were $30-$40 apiece unless they haven’t gotten my chin in a while it seems like they get cleaned out and I’m pretty regular basis now. Like anything else as long as you do your research, there is a lot of money to be made and DVDs.
I can’t believe you were at V Stock in West County Mall. If I would’ve known you were there I would’ve loved to meet you . Sadly they’re known for overpricing their items.
This is my hometown! Probably my most visited store in town. If you happen to come back to Evansville, check out Secret Headquarters as well! Not as big selection but still high grade selection and more emphasis on retro gaming. (Also have an arcade)!
The key on dvds is to find old out of print stuff that was somewhat popular. You don’t really make anything on most of the common stuff but if it was a lesser known movie of a future star that usually helps. Most stuff you’ll find is worth $15-25 depending on what it is.
You missed out on going to Evansville Toys and Games. Daniel, the guy who owns it, is the nicest dude and would definitely take care of you. Highly recommend it if you are back in the area. Also, Secret Headquarters in Evansville has a ton of games at great prices.
That laugh :D lol btw, the reason shops I know they take off the shrink wrap is because they take the game out and keep it behind the counter to prevent theft
Wendy's for sure. But you forgot Hardee's. Their thick burgers are far better. But Chick fil a for sure. Hands down. But, Moe's Southwest Grill over Chipotle, all day. You also forgot Zaxby's.....their salads are the best. House salad friend with light ranch and the chicken buffaloed in the Tongue Torch sauce. Whataburger is good when you've been drinking haha.
Right at the start and I'd get lost looking at all the Funko Pops. Just a quick tip for DVD if you see Mary Kate and Ashley DVDs look it up they sell really well. Also non mainstream horror movies can have value.
Sometimes, if a switch battery is completely dead then It could take an hour or more before it will turn on. I found that out through stressful personal experience lol.
