eBay killed yard sales. In the 90's yard sales were hot beds for resellers. But with online auctions becoming more accessible you do not find the same deals as you used to.
What’s worse is that they claim they price their consoles accordingly to the the market. What market? It’s obviously not ebay, etsy, mercari, and even Amazon. So what market are they even looking at that “justifies” their prices?
WHY TELL ME WHY IS THE 3DS XL 300+ there in US and CANADA??? Here (In the Netherlands) I can buy it for around 150 euro (almost new in box in stores) and 100 on flea markets websites??? It's region free so why is that device more than DOUBLE / TRIPLE THE PRICE in USA AND CANADA ???
The problem with Dk oldies is that they promote quality systems (which gives them the right to mark up everything) But they aren’t delivering what they promise
i got my N3DSXL for $250, holy shit i got a great deal, the person at my local store threw in Pokemon X and Pokemon Sun for no extra cost, along with a case and a charging cable (DKOldies is horrible)
They're terrible with their prices! And on top of it, they claim to clean and refurbish their systems, and several TH-camrs have made videos showing the consoles they've gotten from DKOldies are not refurbished and are super dirty inside. Gross!
I mean DK Oldies isn't realy scamming people. Technically people are buying from them knowing that isn't the price. Why am I going to buy a PS2 for 200 dollars, when I can buy it on Ebay for about 100 or Facebook market for about 60 dollars. Oh!!! WAIT!!!! I know why? people want their orders to be shown. In reality the fans are just doing it to get a bit of cloud. To tell mommy and daddy hey someone famous did my order and 100K viewers saw it. Hate to say it.
@@filmfan6226 Sometimes you have to see it in different ways before blaming someone. A lot of people are quick to blame others without understanding why first? Is like putting more fuel into the fire. It growns bigger and it burns more.
its not a scam if people see it pay it its on them there pletty of sites out there they dont affect resale prices at all there refuished stuff is questionable thought region prices are different so cant compare pal to ntsc prices
I live in the us and I have a local game store called disc traders. I got my refurbished, cleaned, tested working ps3 320GB with all OEM things for $180.
I remember less than 4 years ago the prices for 3DS's were priced very well, you used to be able to pick up a New 3DS XL for EBGames for $148 refurbished lmao.
Why do people start speaking in the first millisecond of the video 🙄 on a Pixel 6 TH-cam app... The viewer will miss the first second of audio as the video opens from the preview
The thing is this if they actually disassemble the hardware and clean and re apply thermal paste I could see it. But as you TH-camrs have exposed they haven't ! People are paying for piece of mind and they aren't counting on you to inspect the internals absolutely terrible business practice.
I’m happy you talked about this Toby- I made an order 3 weeks ago without actually considering the cost of things. I purchased 3 Pokémon games for the GBA & it was fucking dreadful 🫣💀
Notice how everything is constantly on sale. Almost as if there is no actual sale…
exactly
Yea everyday there is a "sale" lol 😆
That’s illegal tbh
To make you think you'll be getting a bargain same with "free shipping"
after the backlash, they down pricing now to $200 ish
still pricey af

and ppl still buy them at over inflated prices it sucks
worst part about it is how much stock they're carrying in their warehouse

With their console bundle prices, no wonder why they recieved a death-threat a few months ago, absolutely insane prices

They made literally 200million ps2's so that is beyond expensive lol
The Biggest Scam In Retro Gaming is VATA grading company
DKOldies is a Scam company to btw

Nice! That was cool of them to do!
They're so expensive because of all of the refurbishing and cleaning services they don't do to the consoles

Wonder if they ship to the UK, I want to experience their horrendous service first hand.
honestly CeX is better in every way
I thought the first thing was a PS4 lol... how tf is a PS2 $338 without a controller?

Just had a quick look on Ebay and found a PS2 with a controller & 8 games for £70
What they're charging and without a controller is a con

I got mine about 6 years ago brand new for $89, might have had to make a PayPal claim to get the sus site to ship the unit but hey, it worked.

Seems like a skill issue
Nice video bro. Hope you're having a great day!
didnt know they had cex in austraila! thats cool!
At this point I think they’re doing it on purpose, I can’t tell you how many people are making video about them. It’s free advertisement!!!

It's not sacm or sucm you say it's just high prices

Here in Mexico you can buy a ps2 with 2 controllers in 50 dollars, DKO is very expensive :(
