    So all of those games came from a house that was burnt down. My buddy and his sister were offered the job to clean it out and anything they found that they could keep, they were allowed to do so. Well, unfortunately, this house had a HUGE retro game collection in it and A LOT of them were REALLY good titles worth good money. I told my buddy to salvage all the game stuff, clean it up as best as he could, and I was able to get him in touch with you. If anyone can move this house fire collection and make money on it, it'll be you Chase! It's awesome to see what all you're pulling out of the box because some of this stuff I didn't even see. Yea, by the end of the video I can TOTALLY see why you're reacting that way. It was an unfortunate situation for sure and definitely not one that you probably expected.

    I actually had a house fire a few years ago, before I got into collecting retro stuff. I ended up tossing all my childhood Pokemon boxs and manuals for Gameboy and DS, among other pretty price cardboard games. I didn't know at the time what to do as I did not have stable housing at the time. One of my current biggest regrets.

    We purchased a load of sealed PS1 games last year that where found in a loft but moisture had got into them. A few could be saved but most had to be opened up and it was heart breaking to see. Hopefully no one was hurt in the fire

    Before you sell that Strategy guide of BoF III you might want to disclose that it has incorrect information about getting through some parts of the game.
    At least that's what Capcom told me in a phone call from them after I ordered from them. I wasn't charged for it because of that, actually I was reimbursed.
    It's still one of my favorite games.

    Shark in Jar Facts: baby sharks are not fished for this purpose; they are by-products of commercial fishing. At times, female sharks are caught with developing young inside of them; these are collected and preserved. The Shark in a Jar is one of our most popular items with kids! Preserved in a mixture of 30% isopropyl alcohol and 70% water dyed blue for a captivating “oceanic” aesthetic
