I've seen the warehouse in multiple videos before, but you are the first to really delve deeper into the business side of the operation which was interesting to watch. I really do hope one day he will be able to achieve the museum he envisions and for the public to see and enjoy some of the gaming relics he has and preserve some gaming history.
this should make all realize now (something i have known for 30 plus years being a full time reseller and collector) that this all is massed produced items and its not really rare!
@@alphaomega9563 Yes, but resealed games are obvious because they show signs of wear under the package. And in the rare cases they don't, they're usually not sealed in the same way that the original games were, making it easy to distinguish the two. I've been collecting for 4 years and trust me, we know when games were resealed.
Ummm NO . THERE IS MANY MANY MANY MANY *BUSINESSES* / *PRIVATE COLLECTION'S * / MORONS WITH MORE $ THAN FORESIGHT ALL OVER THE PLANET. GOOD LUCK TRACKING THEM ALL DOWN
For all the times I've heard myself, friends, sellers and collectors talk about how they wish they'd bought more of the retro titles at stores back in the old days, these guys were actually out there doing it. It's like those stories you hear about people buying games, putting it in a drawer and forgetting about it for years but on a WAY bigger scale.
Just went to the website and its actually impressive! Alot of thier new games are competitively priced with used c.i.b coppies on other platforms. Also some are just a few Dollars more or even less than. Very well done its nice to have an option to get a great quality game vs something used that may have issues.
100% Most that buy sealed games are investors most that buy used games are true collectors there is a HUGE difference between a video game collector and video game investor
@@bennystratton7734 Well that’s stupid, the game will only be passed on from Investor to investor until the item gets damaged and loses its value Lmao.
I buy sealed games with the intention of playing them, it sucks because they're very expensive but it's actually impossible to find mint condition games. Also it's mainly Wii and Wii U stuff so it's not TOO expensive
You are killing it my guy, keep up the great work!! Also, take a vacation, you look so tired. Been watching your videos for a few yrs now and have learned a lot from you. Thank you !
Many, many years ago a baseball card collector said this: "Turn over your inventory as fast as possible. You can't eat it." Obviously, not everyone thinks fhe same way.
that's exactly what i think after watching the video for 2 min ... hold as long as you want but one thing for sure, the demand will only go down because interested people in buyting those games are slowly going to heaven if you know what i mean.
Love these in depth videos. It's a eye opener and interesting to see. 😊 Watched you for 3 plus years now and enjoy your videos. I'll see you on the flip.
There’s nothing special on their site. They must hold all the expensive or rare games for certain people. You can’t find fatal frame or anything rare on their site. Their retro game selection is only 5 pages long with nothing but common games
What is surprising is that some of the games that they're selling that are still packaged and brand new basically are actually being sold for their used game price. So really good for collectors. Even if it's for the cheaper games.
Another amazing video. This is great knowledge and stuff people would have to go to business school to figure out. You're providing it consistently and for free!
@@dxtremecaliberi was thinking like that guy too oh rom and emulator easy access if you just want to play.. nothing beats native hardware tho. Like my modded 3ds has like next to no issues with gameboy, gameboy advance, ds and 3ds games all running perfect where even on high end phones they can still lag. The best is if you just want to play a modded console is the best. If your a collector then yeah that might be a different story. If you can't get a console or mod one then emulator is a great but not perfect choice. Stuff like nes or snes emulate great and have dam near 100 percent compatibility but many newer system emulators especially 3ds are better off with the native hardware. So many lags and crashes with 3ds emulation in particular although the sound is definitely better on a emulator on my phone than a 3ds. Another great example is the rogue squadrons 1 and 2 on gamecube and wii. Those are much better on the console than emulator. Even decent pcs still lag with those and only the strongest phones have been able to emulate them half decently although with some problems. It's because they used their own api aside of nintendos to push the console the the max for those star wars games. Compatibility is just one issue that most emulators aren't 100 percent or barely 80 or 90. Then there's input lag. Although that can vary. Ps1 for example emulates well and I don't see input lag different wired on a ps1 console to a phone wired with USB c adapter but the native hardware usually feels snappier in a controls sense too.
at the end of the day, these are all games that are not being played. Holding games benefits the business not the gamer no matter how it's explained. Saying that you hold Fatal Frame so the average Joe can get it at a decent price is ridiculous!
Wow thanks for this headstart. I wanted to start a Playthrough on twitch and tested this before offline. And I couldnt even leave the second room without a Guide because I destroyed the Boxes, which I was supposed to use to climb over the wall... This is going to be a fun ride
Lotta people in this comment section either showing they didnt watch the video, didnt listen to his explanations, or are so stuck in the the thought process that things should be cheap that they want to cry about something without understanding it.
I love your picking and flipping video. This documentary style videos is amazing! You’re a great host, can’t wait to see what you got cooked up for us next! Cheers buddy 👾
After checking out the website, I agree with some of the other comments. The online selection seems to be fairly sparse compared to everything that's on display in all the videos. He is definitely hoarding, waiting for certain market trends.
If you watched the entire video, you'd know there's a separate "consumer website" which is relatively new and then there's the "business website" which likely has everything else. He also goes to explain that not everything gets put on the consumer website but that his business accounts virtually have access to everything with the exception of a few.
this video was fascinating, and the fluid flow of the conversation from question to answer was great here. very interesting insight from an inventory warehouse business owner. thumbs up.
This guy purposely does not sell games that he has in stock in order to manipulate the market??? Screw this guy. I'd rather play on an emulator than give my money to him.
If you watched the entire vid, I'm pretty sure he answered this exact question and he even explains the entire business model is actually built around the exact opposite of what you're accusing him of... (some people 🤦🏽♂)
I've seen this same video 4 or 5 times now on other channels. They have a LOT less vintage stuff and a ton more new stuff. It won't be long until they are completely out of everything retro and basically become Best Buy without brick and mortar. That won't end well for a physical video game seller in a digital world. Maybe they realize it and is why I think this is the first time I've heard them give out the website? Liquidating?
In my opinion, old video games won’t be worth as much as the newer ones today. Everything is digital today and less than 15% of sales are physical sales. There’s millions of copies of old games lying around. Can’t say the same for new games pretty soon. The investment is in this new era of gaming. I can be wrong though
I imagine this guy has at least a few security personnel on the payroll and 24/7 for that warehouse! So cool to see the behind the scenes and learn a little more.
It's a good idea that just takes a long time to mature into value. They are buying stuff when no one wants it- knowing that people will want them in 10 or 15 years. My brother started doing this with toys. He buys at Ollie's and Target 70% off Clearance. Hold them for 3 years and then sell them for 3x what you paid.
12:47 1000% those that had collected video games for the prior 20-30 years KNEW THIS was the case sorry things do not SHOT up like they did overnight (price wise) that is not how appreciation works IN any collectibles category including video games items appreciate over long period of time MANY MANY people lost MONEY If you had been into collecting anything prior to the pandemic that was the time to sell i know many that sold and made a goldmine off people that did not know any better meaning they thought it would JUST rise up in value boy where they wrong i do not feel sorry for those people they should have known better and how Appreciation really works and actually looked back to the prior 20-30 years when the pandemic started and say wait this game was just $15 now its $150 SOMETHING IS wrong here (there was a MAJOR market manipulation going on during the pandemic too) price tanked and now they will go up in value but it will go up like it did from the 90's till 2020 OVER a long period of time that is how ALL collectibles work regarding appreciation so if you want to collect as an investment/appreciation then you better be in it for the LONG HAUL!
In early 2017, when the Switch released, Amazon sold Twilight Princess HD for 20$… i bought 3 of them for 60$, kept them sealed. Each one of them is now at around 200$ on eBay.
I used to buy copy's of Blockbuster videos direct from the shelf as the owner of my local store was a good mate. I had thousands of VHS tapes until I sold my collection.
I think he corrected himself and was trying to say grading companies not great. It’s crazy if people just let Wata and the auction site just get away with what they did
9:07 thing is yes they make $5 million but is that gross or net? he already stated margins are very Low/Thin meaning not much wiggle room and that they have to pay up for there inventory! and if there buying from the actual game companies they have to buy HUGE amounts in one shot of EACH title this method you have to have a lot of capital like millions
Simple economics supply vs demand, ppl like these stock games obviously supply will become short and demand increases that y these games become costlier. Thanks for digital gaming now no more ppl like these stock games.
If you think about it, it's so cool how easy it is to buy games for any console because these sites and businesses do not like the old days. They had to buy the newest ones
man I would love to see what else he has, like how many Xenosaga 3 copies or maybe a future rare game like Another Code Recollection. the 3DS must be booming right now after the digital store shutdown
It's very simple. They sell the not so rare items just enough to pay their employees. This way they can infinitly keep stocking games that go up in price. The net worth of the company goes up and up and up.
Passionate people who love retro're the reason the gaming community'll survive. Modern gaming? Real gamers replaced by Insta-fake-fame-gurus who, in past, called us 'losers' cuz we were gamers or loved comic books - now smelled a chance for a quick buck and stole our platforms. Make sick money and destroy self-esteem of others. I made a 'X360 as the last great generation' vid as a time capsule, not a prophecy...
I really love watching a company pull games off my local store shelves and sit on it for months or years in an attempt to control the used game market… No wonder everything costs so much, it is artificially boosting the market because no one can find the games they want.
Really loved this video. There are some true nuggets of info. I put myself in a gaming nerd, store owner shoes. "WOW, I got a chronocross with a damaged box, you guys." Dustygames, ha, 1,000,000 factory sealed copies! 😂 In any case, this business seems like the diamond business. Hold the stones, increase demand, up the price for a shiny stone.
Seen videos of this online store from other youtubers, but it seems like they don't update their site regurlary or something unless the majority of the in demand games are scooped up as soon as they hit the site.
@@dustyvideogames1517 Why so few? It shouldn't take but a few weeks to list that amount of items considering this is standard SKU'd NIB items. No photos, no description, etc. etc. It looks like you've been in business for at least 2 years, and theres EASILY 50,000 skus in that warehouse.
@@dustyvideogames1517 I have a big list of PS2 to PS3 and Wii/Wii U games I want to buy sealed that are in the cheaper end of $100 and less. I already have the majority of the expensive games, but was expecting to see some high profile sealed games on your site. I do see some sealed games on your site that I am interested in, but I want to wait next year to buy in multiple chunks at a time since you say you will have more by the end of this year.
Dude, went to their website. They’re selling for pretty fair and good prices. He’s not bullshitting at all, they anchor the prices.
I've seen the warehouse in multiple videos before, but you are the first to really delve deeper into the business side of the operation which was interesting to watch.

I agree except for collectors or bundle editions. Some of those are pretty rare.
The size of demand is very immense though
What?
No game is rare it's just market manipulation that makes it expensive like Super Mario RPG SNES or Megami Tensei on Switch
@@TotallySearch I suggest you looking up Uncharted 2 collectors edition or ClayFighter Sculptor’s Cut
So the sealed market is one fire/natural disaster away from skyrocketing?

*$2,000 casually in gta 2 sealed for GB tucked away on a tiny part of the shelf lol damn.*
Really loved this video. There are some true nuggets of info.
I put myself in a gaming nerd, store owner shoes. "WOW, I got a chronocross with a damaged box, you guys."
Dustygames, ha, 1,000,000 factory sealed copies! 😂
In any case, this business seems like the diamond business. Hold the stones, increase demand, up the price for a shiny stone.
just re-seal it. the plastic wrap is still simple. use regular plastic wrap, then hair dryer
Thanks for sharing! Pretty cool
Where does the money come from? Who's money is being used to buy and store most of these titles for decades?
the guy he was talking to.
Seen videos of this online store from other youtubers, but it seems like they don't update their site regurlary or something unless the majority of the in demand games are scooped up as soon as they hit the site.
We are updating site constantly. We have over 3000 titles listed, but should have 5000 plus by the end of the year.
What game were you looking to buy?
@@dustyvideogames1517 Why so few? It shouldn't take but a few weeks to list that amount of items considering this is standard SKU'd NIB items. No photos, no description, etc. etc. It looks like you've been in business for at least 2 years, and theres EASILY 50,000 skus in that warehouse.
@@dustyvideogames1517 I have a big list of PS2 to PS3 and Wii/Wii U games I want to buy sealed that are in the cheaper end of $100 and less. I already have the majority of the expensive games, but was expecting to see some high profile sealed games on your site. I do see some sealed games on your site that I am interested in, but I want to wait next year to buy in multiple chunks at a time since you say you will have more by the end of this year.
@@dustyvideogames1517 do you have Drakengard 3 ps3? The US version not Japan it does not appear on site
