I'm sure I'm not alone in this being my favorite series in the channel. Makes me brainstorm what to do when it is done... The Xbox X-Change DS for Less The Dreamcast Blast The Wii Spree More 64 The Game boy Gauntlet Destination Playstation
I did a quick calculation on the value of all the items in the Gamecube tote just to get an idea of the value to assess the $450 purchase price. Caleb was correct that the majority of the value comes from the Gamecube games themselves which total $1,014 (on eBay, so Amazon would likely be more - Also, I have Cubivore valued at $475 which is in line with eBay sold comps). The rest of the value comes mostly from the Gamecube console and controller. On Amazon, I found the Platinum and Indigo bundles going for $180-190, I'd assume the black one is the same. Misc items include the Halo Reach collectors box, which goes for about $15 box only on eBay, and $40 complete with the game (Which James said he sold Caleb previously - So I assume here that it will be complete). The big Xbox One Battleborn box set I couldn't find, the game only goes for about $5 on eBay so probably not worth much more than that. There are two Super Mario Bros Power Up Card Games, which sell for $13.99 each on Amazon. A Megaman X6 PS1 game (disc only) is $10. Super Mario Bros 3 on the NES is $15. The 2 Mario Kart Wii Figures I couldn't find exact comps, probably $10-15 apiece on those, but probably more trouble than they are worth realistically. There were also 8 PS4 games, 22 PS3, and 8 Nintendo DS games in the tote. Mostly items worth $4-8 each, but a couple of $10-18 games. I imagine most would just get traded in, so let's just say $50 total for those 38 games. There are probably a couple of miscellaneous items that I overlooked, but I think I got the vast majority. In total taking the lower estimates on the items with a range, comes out to $1,361.98. The $450 offer comes out to 33.04% of the pre-fee value. I know Caleb has stated in the past he likes to be around 40-50% of after fees value, so he's probably in that range once fees are taken into account. I initially thought the offer seemed low, and maybe Caleb should have worked out a deal separately for Cubivore. Since stating its value to be in the $400 range, then offering $450 for the entire tote just rubs people the wrong way.
The seller knew that the cubivore game was a keeper not a flip which played into him accepting the offer but also they have a relationship sometimes you give a little to keep the buyer coming back. It also sounded like the seller got more overall than he was expecting and it takes alot of time piecing out such a large collection
Ebay fees 15% - 204.29 Shipping fees 10% - 136.19 Taxes 15% - 204.29 Total: 544.79 (give or take a 100) That's assuming he sells it all at Market value, which he isn't it in to squeeze every cent out, so to turn the items he needs to be under Market value. We are also assuming that he sells everything and there will definitely be bricks liquidated for 1 or 2 dollars. Maybe even a bulk deal for free similar to this. Ooh by the way he spending the time to post them and fulfill the orders. The prices aren't great in a whole sell, I would have sold the valuable myself and brought what was left, but as you will find this is extremely common and I'd you had a great opportunity I have no doubt you would perform similar to Phoenix.
Wow that nes empire strikes back alone can go for $1000, and the cibivore $400, so with just 2 games you almost have your money back. I'd say that's a deal of a lifetime
Guys, this dude's dealt with Caleb before. Weird how insanely triggered ppl are by some of these prices. He knows what he has, and if he wanted to sell his stuff for a bigger profit, he would've.
Well, he was definitely good to Caleb because Cubivore is worth $450 alone so if he just sold that game then ALL those other games were free. Caleb definitely has his privileges, however I can't hate on him for putting in the work and effort to get these amazing deals.
Yeah he openly said that the game is worth 400-ish, so even if the guy knew nothing else, he heard that as well and was willing to accept 450 anyway knowing that. No one can claim he took advantage of someone who didn't know
I'd low ball too...nothing wrong with getting a sweet deal/snag. But let's be real...he flat out robbed this guy. Lol...and that's ok. That box of sealed games was highway robbery as well.
It's so weird because he almost has an obligation to lowball in order to leave as much room to negotiate as possible. Also he obviously needs to make a profit too, but the guy who's selling it to him must really enjoy being on camera or really like the reseller, because he never seems to counter the offers. As long as they're both happy
@@ThatDiabeticChemist in the previous video with him he realized the guy wasn't countering so he told him the honest value of things first before making his offer (usually 50-60%) and the guy still accepted. tbh he probably got the majority of this stuff for really good deals and it's all profit anyway. he said he got a lot at fleamarkets so it's not like he bought every single item new as it came out.
You definitely did him dirty on the gamecube box. Being the gamecube gambit episode I thought it was about getting money to add to the collection not making profit. If that game wss worth minimum 450 surely 450 for the whole box was way too low. Should of been more like 650. Your still gonna walk away with games for the collection and profit. Not good Caleb:(
I love your seller's vibe! A great video. I mostly appreciate the respect regarding the offers you made. And he was super nice accepting them. Kudos to both.
This deal got me triggered. It can’t even be called deal, this is a steal. I don’t get how the seller could feel good with these prices, but still if everyone’s happy well thats a good deal…love your videos a lot btw
He knew the guy would say yes to any deal he threw out. This was just taking advantage of. "Cubivore alone goes for like $400.... How about $450 for the whole bin" like come on

Are you guys considering he owes eBay or Amazon around 15 percent and us government 25 percent he can't pay full price bec he owes money on every dollar he makes
@@trueheart1372 This has nothing to do with taxes, you only pay taxes on profit. meaning its not a big deal to pay taxes, eveyone who runs a business monthly takes out a % for taxes. We dont think about taxes when reselling, we think about fees and profit after fees. taxes are there no matter what. sell a game for $1 or $10000 your paying the same % on tax. so its not even a thing to argue about.
Look man, I’m a fan but you legit just paid for “Cubivore” & got the rest of the box for free. I know it was a bulk deal, but deff should of been a $500+ offer. All love at the end of the day.
That's what this series is all about homie. It does feel kinda sad to see someone "get ripped off", but also, maybe the guy was just happy to sell to him? I don't know really. Can't speak on the behalf of either party, but we wouldn't get these videos anyways if those deals weren't able to materialise.
Seeing cubivore and all those sell for 450 when cubivore alone goes for 500 is nuts and it's hard to see since Ive been trying to get my hands on cubivore for years
No wonder the gamecube prizes are up in the sky! People like you hype it up so much that now everyone wants anything gamecube. I highly suggest newcomers to hold off buying into all this crap collectors and resellers are asking for games.
I just got cubivore for free online from a ROM. I have GC loader PNP so I just put that on a SD card and I can play it on the gamecube. it runs better then the OG version due to way faster loading times
idk, gamecube has been expensive for the last like 5 years tbh, and the really expensive stuff has been high even back 2012~ because they were just rare games.
Yep I remember when I bought a GameCube with sonic adventures 2 and two original controllers for $45 back in 2012 at the flea market … now everything is overpriced and inflated lol 😂

I was gunna say the same thing , $450 for that box?!?!? That game alone is $400 dude and you had a bunch of classic games in there. I was expecting you to say at least $650
To anyone casting stones: You're ignorant to buying in bulk/repeat customer advantages that goes across all lines of business,, coupled with the fact that all this man had to do was show up with some bins that he probably acquired extremely cheap from clearouts, etc. A lot different than having to do cleaning, pricing, pictures, description forms, selling, customer service, shipping, paying fees, paying taxes, tax paperwork, etc etc.
That Brock theme deck is my unexpected winner of the video! Edit: ATV Offroad Fury on the PS2 was my Dad, Uncle, and Grandpa's favorite game to play together at holidays, but it is the only PS2 game that we lost. That's another fantastic find!
Doing a deal like this to a pawn store or secondhand store is one thing but to bold rob that guy like that is rough. That game cube bin alone was worth way more. The PS2 bin was worth more… really seems like James deserves far more.
Ive sold big collections of old games and cards before too and took a lower price because I understood they had to put the work into listing, packaging, and shipping each item. In my opinion it's fair, if I wanted the extra money I could have put in the extra work.
Yeah this deal was nuts I felt like you was telling him his got gold and offered him brass and he took every offer. You smashed it hear bro u was right to pay low this time, The hustle is real and that was the perfect time for hustle mode
James is the MAN ain’t even worried about taking offers even if it’s a bit low. Makes me wonder what other gems he might still have lol. We need more James in the channel.
I got a copy of cubivore CIB super clean for $1 like 2 years ago. I sold it for 400 within a week or so if I remember. I definitely wish I still had it.
Crazy. I was already happy with €150 for a Indigo Console with two original controllers, Ribbit King, Doshin The Giant, Mario Kart Double Dash, Zelda Wind Waker limited edition two disc, Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Baten Kaitos, MGS Twin snakes. Sometimes.... It's just worth it.
I’ve got this game, because my elderly mom played this one but it wasn’t with the watch , just the PlayStation 1 game in its case…she liked it….and she was 74 years old before she passed away…..
If you are into collecting GameCube games you should really save all GameCube games with the disc issues from GameCube games where the discs basically dissolve.
The artwork on some gamecube games crack but it doesnt affect gameply. The data layer isn't at the top like on other games. It also doesnt affect every gamecube game
I got a Wii with two controllers. A controller stand, a game, and all the wires for only 30 dollars. There were also two memory cards inside. And one paid for the entire Wii. It was a GameCube memory card
This guy who collected all these things must have just been a great age to have that disposable income to buy all this stuff!! The gen who grew up with these things are freaking out. I know I am
I cried so hard after i saw Mario Party 7 again.... this game Was my childhood and will always be my hometown ❤! Iam so happy for you, that you finaly have it! By the way, i also love the winnie Pooh Games!
It’s amazing these games are worth so much with age. Makes me think 🤔 what I’ll do with all my old stuff someday. Great video man, always informative ✌🏻
You guys come here acting like if it was you buying you would pay more! Heck no! 90% of you all would had offerer way less. Dont come here acting like o wow he paid to little. Please bunch of fake people here in the comments. The man selling was more then happy to walk away for $2000 for something he prob got for $200 or less. Thats the way this works folks.
You need to try out the retro game collector app it will catalog your whole collection. That way you dont need to take pictures of your collection every time you go hunting.
Robbery…… poor fella. figured since he’s worked with you in the past you would’ve been more generous with your offers… might have offered him 20% of comps lmao
Yeah bulk is always hard to on the spot price....the GameCube games basically you got your grail game free lol......like what is the right percentage of an items value to pay especially if reselling? I know I paid $300 for a GameCube with 40 games and ended up instant selling for $1400 and got to keep one of my grails...... but my grail was only Gauntlet lol but I know you will profit very amazing on what I saw
dayum you robbed that dude with out even having to wear a ski mask hahahaha
I feel like I would be guilty of a crime if I didnt report a robbery
$450 for the cubivore bin? Wtf I was thinking $700 would be more than fair. You literally bought that 1 game and got everything else free

Yeah this deal was nuts I felt like you was telling him his got gold and offered him brass and he took every offer. You smashed it hear bro u was right to pay low this time, The hustle is real and that was the perfect time for hustle mode
Lmaooo that final box offer edit was perfect riff
GameCube gambit is an awesome journey so far
I just love your enthusiasm. You are one of my favourite flippers you seem like such a lovely young man
I love the GameCube gambit series!
That KH in the background just…mwah so perfect 👍🏽
That framed blockbuster GTA poster is so absurd you have to keep it in the background somewhere
James is the MAN ain’t even worried about taking offers even if it’s a bit low. Makes me wonder what other gems he might still have lol. We need more James in the channel.
That was solid, in my country for what you paid you would have gotten less of half but the markets are very different, great job.
I got a copy of cubivore CIB super clean for $1 like 2 years ago. I sold it for 400 within a week or so if I remember. I definitely wish I still had it.
Garage sale?
@@optimusp517 No at a estate sale.
Crazy. I was already happy with €150 for a Indigo Console with two original controllers, Ribbit King, Doshin The Giant, Mario Kart Double Dash, Zelda Wind Waker limited edition two disc, Super Mario Sunshine, Luigi's Mansion, Baten Kaitos, MGS Twin snakes. Sometimes.... It's just worth it.
@@homieBtotheJ dude wtf
Daaaang you got another Grail!!!! I wonder if you'll ever come across the sonic and monkeyball combo
Gamecube gambit is always great!
I’ve got this game, because my elderly mom played this one but it wasn’t with the watch , just the PlayStation 1 game in its case…she liked it….and she was 74 years old before she passed away…..
Nahhhh man, you talk about being fair with your pricing, you weren't.
450 for all those GameCube games with Cubivore and the console?! That guy got bamboozled!
Love your videos one of my favourite channels, tuning in from the UK!!
If you are into collecting GameCube games you should really save all GameCube games with the disc issues from GameCube games where the discs basically dissolve.
The artwork on some gamecube games crack but it doesnt affect gameply.
The data layer isn't at the top like on other games.
It also doesnt affect every gamecube game
I got a Wii with two controllers. A controller stand, a game, and all the wires for only 30 dollars. There were also two memory cards inside. And one paid for the entire Wii. It was a GameCube memory card
Daylight roberry on Cubivore pile, not hating.
Love your content
This guy who collected all these things must have just been a great age to have that disposable income to buy all this stuff!! The gen who grew up with these things are freaking out. I know I am
holy moly this dude always with the holy grail pick ups
Nice touch with the KH melody at the end.
YOO that's my local Flea Market that's only like 5 minutes away! Unfortunately I don't see much of anything in there ever but that's cool!
I cried so hard after i saw Mario Party 7 again.... this game Was my childhood and will always be my hometown ❤! Iam so happy for you, that you finaly have it! By the way, i also love the winnie Pooh Games!
Had me dying eith the raspberry and the sigh. Just enjoying the GameCube gambit series
I f**king love this series!! Keep up the good content
Because of this series I bought a GameCube to play tomorrow I’m going to do some game hunting
Disney magic racing was literally my absolute favorite game I still have my copy and still play it!
When he said it was 25 degrees, my immediate thought was Celsius (cuz that’s what we use in au) and that’s quite warm for celsius
It’s amazing these games are worth so much with age. Makes me think 🤔 what I’ll do with all my old stuff someday. Great video man, always informative ✌🏻
i remember buying walt disneys world racing tour in a scholastics book fair ad in school back in 2004 i think such a great game
Great video man,thank you Uncle J for Cubivore!😊🍻🍺
never too much megaman-X music. love it
450 for that bin. Might as well take his wallet at gunpoint while your at it lol.
Amazing Caleb!!
I saw that Amazing Spider-Man 2, and almost fell out my chair.
Im so proud of you that you made such a good deal
Fav series so far, looks like you're lapping retro Rick in subs nooiiiccee
My man James got the hook up.
Ps2 smugglers run brings back some good memories!
I can literally still hear that silent rick cameo XD
You guys come here acting like if it was you buying you would pay more! Heck no! 90% of you all would had offerer way less. Dont come here acting like o wow he paid to little. Please bunch of fake people here in the comments. The man selling was more then happy to walk away for $2000 for something he prob got for $200 or less. Thats the way this works folks.
You were right until you assumed what he spent, which is definitely wrong
I spent 500 dollars on GameCube stuff because Caleb inspired me thank you 😘😌🥺
How is this inspiring? Lol.
@@GeneralFrankenberry his content lol
When I worked at GameStop as a 17 year old we would give those pics out for every gta pre order. I took 3 and lost them
I am quitting watching the GameCube gambit if I don't get a game review at the end. 😂
Also: editor Riff almost took me out with that Retro Rick clip
Us too! “ITS FOR MY SON”
You need to try out the retro game collector app it will catalog your whole collection. That way you dont need to take pictures of your collection every time you go hunting.
Robbery…… poor fella. figured since he’s worked with you in the past you would’ve been more generous with your offers… might have offered him 20% of comps lmao
This series made me start a wii collection lol
Really enjoying the content man!!
Editor Rick gives this videos life
Robbery on the GameCube lot
You inspire me to start building up slowly a gaming collection like yours brother
Yeah bulk is always hard to on the spot price....the GameCube games basically you got your grail game free lol......like what is the right percentage of an items value to pay especially if reselling? I know I paid $300 for a GameCube with 40 games and ended up instant selling for $1400 and got to keep one of my grails...... but my grail was only Gauntlet lol but I know you will profit very amazing on what I saw
Now you just need the grail of all grails Pokemon Box. I will be highly surprised if you snag it for under a grand!
