    Chase and the boys are whatever you think, but we can all agree that in the end they are actually relatively wholesome with even rather dry attitudes. Some people are having a bad day or whatever and can be mean to chase and them and some are probably just stigma’d by the GoPro… midwest people are probably surprised by the camera, I know I would be at a garage sale if people I didn’t know with a camera showed up. Keep up the good work and push harder or else you’ll never beat the lions subscribers.

    I had a conversation with a full time reseller/collector last week about this. Back then, finding stuff used to be fun especially when you were hunting with another collector. People were more passionate about the finds and there was plenty of good stuff to find. Nowadays, people are more about the value of a game instead of the nostalgic part of it. And there are now more resellers than collectors out there. I quit the hunt and the videos and now just enjoy my collection and watch folks like you who even though they resell full time, still have that emotional attachment to items in their collection 🙂🤙🏽 It took time for even myself to get the FOMO out of my system but it’s much more relaxing now that I stepped away from the fray. Keep pushing that awesome content, CATRP Crew!

    To me the absolute worst part about garage sales is the start time situations. People post “no earlybirds”, but it doesn’t matter and people will show up crazy early to the sales and disregard it. So alot of the time there’s a moral dilemma/awkwardness to being the jerk that shows up super early against their wishes or you stick to it and show up when it starts or a little earlier. Unfortunately you almost kind of have to be THAT guy to get the good stuff. And then you have the times where they won’t let anyone look until exact time, and everyone already there has to run to the items and compete, and the home owners don’t know what to do and who gets priority. Sometimes you show up on time and they go “oh yeah we finished set up early and people have been coming through it for an hour!” It’s all super awkward and uncomfortable. That’s not even counting you having to just hope no one messaged them on Facebook beforehand and bought the games. It’s just crazy. I’m so happy I resell and collect more than just video games.

    • @ObjoGaming
      @ObjoGaming ปีที่แล้ว +3

      My thought process is that showing up early is fine if the sign is up on the end of the street since that's the last thing people do when setting up most of the time. Also most signs aren't even readable from the street so the average person would just turn onto the street anyways. I'd only ever show up like a half hour early though, anything earlier is egregious and knocking on the door before start time is an absolute no.

    • @jfh.8064
      @jfh.8064 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@ObjoGaming I agree. Half an hour seems pretty fine especially if there’s signs like you said. But around me and other areas people pretty much camp out if games are advertised. Last year there was a local sale and they said they’d have a few Super Nintendo games and some magic cards and NO earlybirds, and I got there 15 mins early and there was 6 dudes camped out down there street waiting outside their cars to pounce on the games. It was literally 4 average SNES games.. and it turns out one for the guys that showed up messaged him the night before so he bought everything and we all just walked away. It was awful.

      @@jfh.8064 I tend to avoid anything that specifically advertises games these days. It's one thing if they just say "video games" but if they're advertising Nintendo or anything they've already been hit with at least 30 Facebook messages, which either means that the stuff is sold or that they now know it's worth something and are changing prices. A lot of time people advertising games also price the stuff according to eBay. I've done a lot better just avoiding sales like that at this point.

      First if the sign is up especially without a time, it is fair game. Second if it is advertized as a late start too bad I'm coming if im in the area.

Time is money and now you are ahead of them all.

    My biggest con lately has been that people have been wanting way too much for their stuff lately. I had a deal fall through because a guy essentially wanted retail for his dirty, untested games and he got really offended when I tried telling him his stuff isn't going to sell for that much. I get that times are tough but at the end of the day it's a garage sale, no one is getting up early in the morning to pay eBay prices.

      To be fair, if these people sold the games for like 2 and they were 100 dollar games and they got ripped off, people would say "They shoud have done their research!" People having yard sales just can't get a win either way. They charge too much, people piss and moan about it, or they get wrecked and lose out on more potential money.

    Not really a pro's and con's, but a tip I would give is to go to sales not advertised on Facebook. It's good to have a plan and you can get lucky at those, but most of the time a lot of others already have that marked down to hit it as well. My best finds are always free styling and hitting the places kinda off the trail. I always tend to find stuff at mobile parks for some reason. Yard sale con/complaint; signs that are left up after a sale is done leading people astray! Side note - Michael finds so much great stuff!

    Actually went to my first ever « real score » of a garage sale this weekend. It rained Saturday, so they delayed the sale till Sunday, and I was in the neighborhood Sunday morning, by chance, because I had an appointment early in the area. We were there early-ish, not very early, 9:30, but I think they were just starting out. The guy immediately says « everything is 1$…everything ». He just wanted it gone. There was good stuff there. Video games (ds, 3ds, ps1,2, gamecube), consoles, and board games. But it was all rpg, fantasy, scifi stuff. The games were the kind you get at a hobby store (castle siege 2060 or something, not monopoly), and the video games were all rpgs and Zelda, no Madden 13s or anything. I didn’t bother checking eBay or anything, I just grabbed 20 boardgames and 20 video games, a ps 2, Xbox 360 and controllers, and put it in a box and gave him 50$. What a deal! A couple of the DS games didn’t have cartridges but the box and manual sell for 30$!

They put a bunch of stuff out at the curb for free and they had an alto saxophone in a case marked as free. It needed to be re-corked which was the only downside. Ended up selling it on Marketplace for $350. Absolute score.

    Glad you mentioned the Con of smokey at the end. I've actually turned down games in the past because they smelled like an ash tray. Sure it was a wii system and games but it just wasn't worth the time it would take to get the smell out. Sometimes I walk in the garage and know that it would need to be a really good item for me to walk out with it. Maybe I'm leaving money on the table but I still have PS2's in my garage that may never be sellable due to smell.

      Does not take a lot of sheets but I will do 2/3 a sheet per console rounded up. unless it's just extra super bad then I might do 1-1.2 sheets per console. Don't really need a lot of dryer sheets.

    I wouldn't say that yard sale prices have increased because of "youtube re-sellers" like some people will. I think it has more to do with just re-sellers in general as well as the internet. TH-cam re-sellers have increased the number of re-sellers and people that do yardsales have noticed. I mean, it's pretty obvious that someone is a reseller when they buy all of the same items. Because of that people tend to look stuff up more often than they would have. Craigslist is the same, it's very difficult now to find good deals on there like you used to.

    One pro I in leveraged today is finding random buys that aren't garage sales while going to garage sales (huh? That makes no sense Buddy!). No no let me explain. Was looking at a sale next door to a house that had a Pod in front. Randomly saw one person loading games into a box in front of that house, so I invoked the power of the ask, but added "not sure if y'all are having a garage sale, but do you have any video games that you are looking to get rid of". They looked at me, looked at the games in their hand, and said "sure!". I walked away with a handful of bolo GameCube games for a silly price. Moral of the story, talk to everyone you see while garage sale'in, start conversations with other shoppers, cause you never know what will turn up!

    Con - everybody that sells Pokémon thinks it's worth a fortune, just because it's vintage....your Eevee from Jungle that's in Damaged condition isn't worth $100. And there is no way to make them think otherwise because they've watched 2 PokeRev videos.

    I remember this one time I was like the 3rd person to ask about video games but the husband was inside looking and luckily came out while I was there and they sold me the whole box for $25 there was a GameCube and n64 with some decent games and wavebird

    Yard Sales weren’t created for resellers, no yard sale has nothing… just maybe nothing that you were looking for. My brother and I average $1000 every Saturday setting up in our driveway. Someone always needs something in their life, whether they are collecting or buying for personal use. Like your sprinkler for instance.

    this weekend was my local community annual yard sale event 150+ sales - i went to ~80-100 of them only spent $40 =/
    called it off. Wife than finds a furniture ad for free and we went to go pickup. That person was moving out of the country and SELLING everything. I asked if they had games? seller replied yes, but he is a collector and wouldn't sell. I offered $500 depending on whatcha got? He welcomed me in. Ended up buying a 6pc sectional, futon, pullout bed, couch + his entire 20yr collection for $1350 THAN my wife found another piece of furniture (she flips furniture/restores for a living) so we go to this storage unit locally. THIS dude ends up being a storage unit buyer and I ask u got games? He says YUP. pulls out a 3 big boxes I ask how much for all as is? He said $250? DEAL. some highlights and why I instantly said yes. I could see pokemon yellow, ps2 tenkaichi 3 cib, ps1/2/3/4 and 4 handhelds. easy 3-5x
    tldr: went to 100 yard sales it was a bust. gave up. went to 2 sales for my wife and asked for games. Spent $1600. PROFIT?

    I hate when I go to a sale and they say I just sold it. Last week I made a video where I stopped at a yard sale at 5:30 PM and they had a Game Cube and 20 games and only want $2 each. Total value almost $800

  • @legolarry6026
    @legolarry6026 ปีที่แล้ว

    A big con for me is that where I live there are lots of yard sales that you can tell that the people are dumpster divers because the stuff is filthy and they have multiple items like kids strollers and vacuum cleaners that’s how I can tell they are dumpster divers because who needs 7 vacuum cleaners. Also everyone that has an Atari thinks it is the ultimate holy grail and thinks it is worth a fortune. Another con is that most of the yard sales near me are selling mostly clothes if not all clothes and the sign say huge yard sale! I wish the sign said clothes for sale so I would know not to go to it.

    One pro i sometimes get deals on scraps later in the day.
    Ill sometimes be there late (around 12 to 2) and many times they just want it gone. Ive not found anything high end but have found many $15 to $20 games for $2-$5.

    Been to about 20-30 different garage sales close by my house and not one of them had any video games. We truly are in a drought. I’d highly recommend holding on to what you have for dear life because it definitely feels like video games will become a massive investment down the line, even more than they already have been.

    • @CbassMajor
      @CbassMajor 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I disagree, as the people who are nostalgic for games from like the 80's-90's get older they are already starting to complete their collections and no longer have the need to buy more games, I think as years go by NES and SNES games will drop a lot more since not that many people will be looking for them anymore, I do think games from the early 2000's will start to increase though as we are already seeing it with Gamecube

  • @SeanNyte

    Just when I was thinking about jumping to another one of your videos, here comes a box with SNES Cartridges.... I couldn't care less about the sticker on the game, as long as it works fine... That's all that matters to me... While I would love to have CIB copies of the games, I'm planning on playing the games that I purchase....

  • @TheOneHamster
    @TheOneHamster ปีที่แล้ว

    At this point finding video games is like the cherry on top, where in the past it had been the main thing I was looking for. So many resellers out there, sometimes up to 2 hours earlier than opening time, it just isn´t worth it anymore. I´m glad when I find something cool but I don´t have high hopes anymore for these killer finds. That doesn´t mean that you can´t find stuff anymore in general, it just has become quite rare.

    found a yard sale that had 4 gamecube games, ratatouille, luigi's mansion, mario sunshine and sponge bob. the sponge bob disc ended up being cracked ad the ratatouille was missing but while being at the sale a guy before me asked how much, he said he wanted 5$ for all 4 and the guy skipped the deal cause of the missing disc xD i grabbed them i don't care for a 5$ disc when you got a 60$ games next to it

    When your mom is doing a garage sale and then sells your video games while you're out at college, then you come back and most of your room is gone/sold.
