    I will solicit this unapoligetically: Everyone! Go watch/re-watch all the episodes and thumbs up. Boost this channel and maybe we will get more episodes.

      Seen them all several times and still re-watch several episodes from time to time. They defiantly deserve way more subs and views then they get which still is not a small amount.

      ​@@davidplaysgames470 I wouldn't be surprised if he just hid it just to gloat that he sold it. I've seen vendors at video game markets do that before. Someone was selling an "allegedly" brand new SNES console for £600 and within the first half hour of the show it sold out, only for it to re-appear on the next convention on sale by the same vendors....
      At the same time though i wouldn't rule out someone actually buying that lot as there is a lot of naive people out there thinking they are just going to go up in price all the time and for sellers like that, that's their main target.

    While other retro gaming channels have turned into reselling and just buying up everything, the Game Chasers are still sticking to their roots and I love it. The only ones left IMO out of all the channels we’ve all watched over the decade. Thanks Billy and Jay for staying true, it’s much appreciated. 👍🏻🙏🏻

      I know what you mean. They turn into nothing but ads. TH-cam ads before the episode then an ad for who sponsored the episode. I don’t want to use an ad blocker because I want to support the creators but these ads are getting out of hand.

    its different out there now, you see other channels picking stuff up at swaps but they are paying like 60-70% of sold listings etc, the days of cheap finds are probably long gone. I stopped garage sailing 7 almost 8 years ago because I wasn't finding stuff, but I did build a good collection prior to stopping, and those first episodes really pumped me up to do it.

    I don't know if you guys know who the 8 Bit Guy is. He has a pretty big TH-cam channel (1.4 million subs) and he lives out in Dallas. One of the main things he does with his channel is restore old computers like the Apple 2. Maybe reach out to him and try to get a collab going or something. That would be pretty cool to see if he can get that thing running.

    Thank you for bringing light to some of these sellers that are charging ridiculous amounts. The problem is, people ARE paying those prices. At least they are at the socal swap meets. I blame a certain channel out west here that spend WAY over retail (a lot of the time) on deals at the swap meet. They have a huge following and when vendors and people see what they're paying, it messes the system up for everyone. Now vendors think everything they have is gold and the un-educated buyers believe that it's actually worth that price. 95% of the time I don't even ask about prices on game items because of how ridiculous the prices are.
