Every year I spend a week going through my entire apartment. Anything I haven't used in the past year, I get rid of. Last year I threw out 7 full trashbags of stuff. It's hard to throw stuff out, but it's the only way to not have a mountain of crap in your house.
I feel your pain! The hoarding is real. I have been dealing with hoarding issues for years. Same as you, it is not like those shows with piles of garbage, etc. all over. I just have too much stuff, and have NO idea where to even start thinning it out. Every time I try, I start saying, "Oh, I may want/need to use that someday...." So yeah, the struggle is real.
I definitely relate to this comment. I've started to make good changes but it can be easy to get overwhelmed, and end up doing nothing. For me, I just gotta be patient and remember it took time to get this way, and it will take some time to fix. I love music so for me it's all speakers, amps, gear, wires. My basement and garage looks like a stereo/speaker store. Some times I just gotta laugh at myself. Like yeah I'll definitely need that S-video cable some day lol. At least I have good taste, and can sell most of what I don't want. Keep grinding!
I think a lot of us can relate to this. I wish it was easier to sell/donate stuff to good homes. Once you free up the space the cycle starts again, but at least you can mess around with "new" junk for a while. Ebay has gotten to be a nightmare for sellers though. 9:40 I have nearly that same Compaq case. It's actually pretty well made, and standard Micro-ATX. Mine has an old Core 2 Duo rig in it that I used to use for Linux testing.
Not sure if you caught my tweets a couple of weeks ago but I basically just went through the same process you did except with ALL of my stuff. I've had to clean up my space and rethink my product-focused content. It was literally unsustainable because I don't even have half the space you do to store stuff and junk was just piling up. I dreaded having to find all the equipment I needed to do things, I couldn't get in the right headspace to be productive and I really don't have the capacity to shoot the stuff I thought I could. So I totally feel you with all this cleaning up feeling so good. I feel so much better now that I have less junk to look at and worry about.
It's like watching my apartment. I recently moved into a new house and my review and not only items are always in the way. It made me feel depressed so I started to make make my heart like stone and start getting rid the most of them.. I know how bad it feels when you are a person who keeps everything but things have to be done..
I build a PC for a friend for Christmas and was forced to essentially sell my old hardware I didn't need which gave me a lot of space back, although I still don't have enough space to not store stuff on the ground
I've been on a journey towards minimalism for the past several months and its soooo freeing! The secret is to be able to let go of things. I grew up flipping stuff on ebay so I learned I can always find replacements and there's someone out there who can use it more than me. Eventually you find what you use most and really need, and that's what takes time. Sometimes you just have to drop it off at Goodwill, especially if it's been sitting for so long and selling isn't worth it.
as a beginner what lighting mic backdrop and most important what kinda pc would be good for streaming and editing? plz keep in mind i have a caviar appetite on a burger king budget lol most of HAPPY NEW YEAR
Went through a similar exercise last week. Got rid of bunches of cables I haven't touch in years (BNC, etc.), cartons for stuff I don't own, other's people's belongings in my basement, etc. Got rid of old records (33's) that have no meaning to me, duplicates, etc. You need to skinny down once in while.
What to do with old tech? Like laptops, even after reformatting its still struggles with modern websites but I can't bring myself to sell it due to sentimental attachment.
I identify with this problem. I went through my garage the other day and found several things that I could NEVER use...graphics cards and sound cards from the 90s, DOS based games that I could never run again, PS2 mice and keyboards...and yet, I couldn't get rid of them...good luck with the addiction/problem :D
You have to be honest and just keep what you really need. Im now down to 3 big boxes for all my electronics related things. Not too much but i still have a spare cable for everything i need, some pc parts, old consoles, tools and other stuff.
I'm kind of the same way. I've got two closets full of computer related stuff. I just keep buying stuff I plan on using and never get to it so it get shoved in a closet
I feel your pain, I have an entire shelf of stacked laptops, most of which are broken, then there's my closet filled with desktops and old circuit boards from home electronics
hey man, if you put up listings for some of them, I think that most of your viewers would want some of it. Used products are great, especially when you have so much.
I feel this. I haven't figured out how to deal with all the stuff that gets sent to me without doing tons of giveaways and get subs that only want stuff rather than my content.
Getting rid of old stuff is liberating. It's a great thing to do at the beginning of the year. :) But keep it up along the way this year. I always try doing a big cleanup every 6 months or so and it's great to have the feeling of free space.
Good way to get rid of a lot of stuff without throwing it away. Sell it in bulk, put it in a large pile on a palette, take some pictures and you can store it efficiently while it’s stacked on a palette, and put the palette up for auction on ebay+200 or so for shipping.
I'm willing to help... feel free to send me any PC parts you have laying around. ;) On a positive note I feel better about my hording now that I've seen yours, lol! On a serious note, I understand. Did a little cleaning out a couple of weeks ago and have some more to do in the near future.
I'm lucky! I'm in highschool so i don't have any money to hoard stuff. I'd go through and organize everything in a spreadsheet, and decide why you're keeping it, like mark it if you need to make a review, or just want to keep it for some other reason. Then everything else you can get rid of, and slowly go through the list and get rid of everything.
This certainly brings up an interesting review series called "EposVox's junk: yeah or nah?" Where you'd review stuff that is either ebay worthy, donation worthy, or something to be thrown into the recycle center. That would definitely make up for the funds you dumped into this equipment and keep your house clean in the process :)
12:37 I had that mic at one point, it sounded pretty clean at the time, but it broke from the base, it was a sad time Also I am drowning in everything I have ever collected, review boxes, pc parts everywhere, box of cables, box of psus, box of fans, box of coolers, over 10 pc case and fully built pcs. I plan to move at some point, so I really gotta start decluttering as well
Maybe you should try to make a custom shelving organizer out of wood or plastic, like for your lenses, trace a hole around them and cut it out, and put it at an angle like a storefront, then you could label them too, maybe even a collab with someone who does crafts like that?
to be fair, GN was in Steves house as far as I know too, and then they grew and moved into a studio where they now have a dedicated storage room or something to that degree
I'm also a tech hoarder. I've got stuff that would have been awesome to own 20 years ago. I've often said that I'd love to shop at my own garage sale. Everything that I never find when people are unloading their closets of crap they keep would be a dream bargain. I think that will be my ad for my garage sale if I ever have one...
TLDW: Bought to review but never did 😅... You need to focus on making the review and selling it immediately, unless its something thats critical for further testing/comparison. Great example would be the ASMR mic, doesn't look like a project that your gonna revisit and the funds would be better spent on your next review/project. Tech comes and goes quite quickly so speed it key for interest and for max resaleability. Either way man looks like your working on it and ill continue to enjoy your content 👍
@@EposVox Exactly just like what I stated before if its something that going to be utilized for further testing then keep it. It was just a random example from the video. But I hope you understand what I'm saying. People do buy items to review and instantly resell just depends on its purpose ect.
I went through this 20 years ago. Got to the point that even with everything organized. If I wanted to do a simple project. I couldn't find anything. Sure I had the correct cable. But what three boxes of cables is it in. The other thing was did I really need 2 or more of an item. Just last year I went though and got rid of my duplicate Minolta film cameras. One would ask how do you end up with the same model. Well until a few years back. Thrift stores in my area was cleaning out complete systems with bag for under $20.00. The bag would include a few lenses I did not have. One would think I would just take the lenses and re-donate the rest and or sell them on e-pay. But no, I just put it with the rest of the cameras. One of the things that help was prices on a-lot of items went back up. Now that film cameras are back in. Problem in the thrift store does not realize the difference between a $150.00 camera bag of goodies compared to a $15.00 bag of goodies. So they mark everything $80.00 . Plus I now have a list I can take with me on items like game systems and cameras. The list is my friend. I also cut down on going to thrift stores.
Wow. I have the same problem. Only mostly with hot sauces, but also a lot of old tech gear too. And boxes! OMG the boxes I save! Empty cardboard shipping boxes, shipping bubble wrap and other shipping stuffing. I. Save. Every. Single. Box. From. Gear. I. Buy. Never know when I might sell it and want it to be "Almost New In Box" condition! When you said "here's a Windows 98 computer I found by a dumpster that I need to do a video on".... I was sold... er, convinced you DO have a problem too. Good luck! I have to go collect more crap to throw away now.
Dude, can i invite you to clean out my space? My GF get's on my case needing a whole basement the garage beside the office space. I definitely hoarder to much... 😀
U have a house full of tech stuff xD I still remember that live stream u did when u moved into the appartment. This place was Soo empty and now u have left no space to walk :D
You don’t know me but I’m a long lost cousin from Belgium. I feel your pain and want to help you out with your hoarding problem. I volunteer to get some of your unused stuff to store at my place. Our grand, grand grand parents would appreciate that. So let me know what you want to send me. 😉❤️👋🇧🇪
@@EposVox I see, usually 9/10 monitors the only thing wrong is a few blown capacitors, very easy to fix. Occasionally it's a power supply issue that takes a little more time and effort to fix. Well good luck, hopefully just a few caps and you got your monitor back.
It's possible it's capacitors, but there's a LOT of posts online about this specific one after someone unplugs it for the first time in a long time no longer powering on. There's a ROM chip that stores the power state and gets corrupt, apparently. Just needs flashed somehow and should be working again.
This reminds me of me, except my most powerful PC is still a core 2 duo machine and I still use all but 2 of my things. One tablet and a Pentium III PC. Both work, just not for anything modern.
Hello EposVox. i need you help . i would like to ask for any tech you can give. The reason i am asking, is that i am from botswana (Google it) i am need because new tech is very expensive this side and i would love to start my own tech channel soon. Please help, Thank you
If I buy tech I never throw it out. I can always repurpose it or give it to someone else. Yet some things I probably won't use like over 100 PC fans lol. I had a tech binge where I bought a lot of old graphics cards and motherboards for fun projects and just cuz. Now I'm running out room. Basement is almost full.. :(
Drinking game: take a shot whenever he says "Make a video on this" Seems like a lot of the stuff you keep and don't care for is due to wanting to make a video on it. I think for 2019 you should maybe focus on those items and making 1 video a week or something on your random tech (new or old). Then focus on selling what can be sold and donating what is better donated. Could even make a serious about Selling Tech Online. Your light bulbs can be donated to an apartment complex since they will definitely use them. If you are looking for ideas to display items use shelving that is 1'6" from the ceiling and wrap the room with it. Then display all items that will look cool on there!
Well, I learned 1 thing from this video. Don't send you anything for review lol. On the real I totally get it and definitely relate to this, only with speakers and stereo gear. I'm at the point now that I'm going for quality over quantity. I wanna enjoy my gear, not be owned by it
Why not start doing giveaway videos for things? Kind of like how Jayz2Centz does it, review, then give away the reviewed product. Doesn't have to be every video, just every so often, make a lighting guide, give away a set of bulbs, related to the released video. Audio interface review? Give away a mic. Something the interested audience who clicked on the video would be interested in. I know it is hard to give up things you worked so hard for, but you have to learn where the line is, and know when to cross it when it is something you really don't need anymore. Some of those lenses would be fantastic as backdrop items on a shelf; like, try to separate out a pile of things that you could use for backdrop changes, for example anyway. Good luck, and be brave! It's okay to donate too, if all else fails!
Get rid of the bulbs, donate or sell the keyboards, phones, laptops, computers, cameras, mics, etc. Someone else could use it way more than you and you'll always find something to make a video for TH-cam. I have the same problem you do and what usually happens is that something sits around so long that it goes out of date and can't be used anymore, or you just don't touch it and feel a little guilty.
Yes, you got too much stuff. The solution to this problem is always asking yourself if you are really going to use this item. If the anser is no, get rid of it. This can hurt a bit but you will not miss these items. If you don't use an item within a year, you will most likely never use it ever again. The other problem is not really all that stuff but *how you store it* . How you store things can dramaticly change how much space you have to store things. For people having so much stuff, custom made shelves would be the best solution. WIth an efficient storage solution, your free space could increase a lot. And it seems like you are storing things very inefficiently. But I can't really tell from a narrow perpective of an video.
@@EposVox yeah i have realized that i mostly times try to comment things before i even watch the entire video i have realized you have a lot of stuff that could be sold but at the same time just useless xD
@@EposVox yeah but most of the time houses are cheaper apartments are usually more I'm not sure where you live but Apartments are usually $100 $200 more
@@jt3000o renting a house just doesn't make sense overall and would cost more for less space. Buying one requires great credit and big down payments which we are working on building up this year for a 2020 house. But there's no situation where we'd end up with a better result renting a house right now. We're in a 3 bedroom town home apartment, two floors. No hearing neighbors or anything light that. Thick walls. Nothing above or below us other than us
okay I see what you mean didn't know you had that much room in your apartment have you sold more of the items you're trying to get rid of since the video. appreciate such quick replies
How about this I pay for shipping you send me your junk and I start a new series called reviewing EposVox’s junk.

at 1:39 I want those drive cages. PM me and I'll work out a price for them. One man's trash is another man's gold.
My brother is hoardings person to, his room is very full of Electronica and speaker and dirty!!
Why not give some of the stuff to schools or kids clubs.

Laptop hell? Gimme one my laptops on ots last legs

@@EposVox jeeez 10 years old? That's no beuno man you do have a hoarding problem
@@EposVox man I hoard old laptops to put Linux on lol
Well, I learned 1 thing from this video. Don't send you anything for review lol. On the real I totally get it and definitely relate to this, only with speakers and stereo gear. I'm at the point now that I'm going for quality over quantity. I wanna enjoy my gear, not be owned by it
Woah some of that stuff makes me jealous!
Yard Sale!
Some tips to making a channel?
Thankfully i mainly hoard digitally, otherwise ive got the luxury of using ny parents houses attic space for all my old stuff.
Why not start doing giveaway videos for things? Kind of like how Jayz2Centz does it, review, then give away the reviewed product. Doesn't have to be every video, just every so often, make a lighting guide, give away a set of bulbs, related to the released video. Audio interface review? Give away a mic. Something the interested audience who clicked on the video would be interested in.
I know it is hard to give up things you worked so hard for, but you have to learn where the line is, and know when to cross it when it is something you really don't need anymore.
Some of those lenses would be fantastic as backdrop items on a shelf; like, try to separate out a pile of things that you could use for backdrop changes, for example anyway.
Good luck, and be brave! It's okay to donate too, if all else fails!
I sell old tech for new tech. It's like a discount and I don't have crap laying around.
Yep I am known to this all to well as well
retro is a dangerous game
When you get new apartment, then make one room just for storage.
i will take any Philips Hue that you dont want? I will pay some money if needed
Get rid of the bulbs, donate or sell the keyboards, phones, laptops, computers, cameras, mics, etc.
Someone else could use it way more than you and you'll always find something to make a video for TH-cam.
I have the same problem you do and what usually happens is that something sits around so long that it goes out of date and can't be used anymore, or you just don't touch it and feel a little guilty.
OMG I HAVE THE SAME COMPAQ PRESARIO LOL!!!!
7:40 kinda looks like a Xbox 360 Elite
Send some stuff my way dawg
Yes, you got too much stuff. The solution to this problem is always asking yourself if you are really going to use this item. If the anser is no, get rid of it. This can hurt a bit but you will not miss these items. If you don't use an item within a year, you will most likely never use it ever again.
The other problem is not really all that stuff but *how you store it* . How you store things can dramaticly change how much space you have to store things. For people having so much stuff, custom made shelves would be the best solution. WIth an efficient storage solution, your free space could increase a lot. And it seems like you are storing things very inefficiently. But I can't really tell from a narrow perpective of an video.
Wheres your cat?
...just....in....case
i have digital hoarding problem
You and me both. 😂
Sell me keyboards for the low man🥺
I need a new keyboard.
Make a museum
lol
Fix all the broken stuff and combine them with your stuff to make a super computer with a AI Butler
It's possible I know you can do I t
you should try to sell stuff you won´t gonna use anymore. someone out there needs it probably more than your storage does.
That's literally what I'm showing in this video...
@@EposVox yeah i have realized that i mostly times try to comment things before i even watch the entire video i have realized you have a lot of stuff that could be sold but at the same time just useless xD
Why not do a giveaways every video you have? That way you can have additional content every end of your Videos.
You could literally do your job anywhere I'm curious why do you decide to live in a apartment
Because an apartment is all I can afford at the moment...?
@@EposVox yeah but most of the time houses are cheaper apartments are usually more I'm not sure where you live but Apartments are usually $100 $200 more
@@jt3000o renting a house just doesn't make sense overall and would cost more for less space.
Buying one requires great credit and big down payments which we are working on building up this year for a 2020 house. But there's no situation where we'd end up with a better result renting a house right now.
We're in a 3 bedroom town home apartment, two floors. No hearing neighbors or anything light that. Thick walls. Nothing above or below us other than us
okay I see what you mean didn't know you had that much room in your apartment have you sold more of the items you're trying to get rid of since the video. appreciate such quick replies
i hear giveaway time
