They are just internet trolls. Worst thing you can do is engage them. You have a great channel and it’s obvious that your a fair guy and great to your animals. Thanks Pete
I agree, 100%
dang did the troll reply to you on this comment? It says 1 reply and there is no reply tho. people like this are just having a bad life and take it out on others success. believe me I used to be rude to people on youtube myself years ago. I dont have a great life but I realized what I was doing and stopped being rude. I hope the guy can get help and realize he is just using his pain to give others pain for no reason.
I don't know if it's just trolls. Trolls are people who don't necessarily believe what they say, but just like to cause trouble. While i would never do the things he says people emailed him about, i can at least understand people being upset. As a reseller who specializes in video games, his employee had to know that those games had some value.
Even if the sealed games were only worth $30 each, giving the seller only $50 for EVERYTHING was way too low, and i think, dishonest. I know, some will say that that was what the seller asked for, so it's morally right. My morality is different, i guess. I would have made a guess at the true value (maybe look a couple games up on ebay for reference), then offered him 50% of that number.
So, no, of course he should not have gotten death threats and hate. But i think criticism is fair. Would he have decided to give the original seller a cut of the larger profits, had he not gotten all the hate? I have no idea. Probably not, since he edited and posted the original video, thinking the behavior in it was ok. In other videos, i've seen him being honest though, so maybe. The point is, his employee really did screw that seller.
Ofcourse it was i agree, $50 was robbing the seller blind, fact. People with good morals naturally are gonna be fuming with that and rightly so.@@trekkiejunk
you are that troll. entitlement lover and anti-capitalist. @@trekkiejunk
The problem with internet hate is that the small bits of hate will always overshadow the large amounts of love poured in. I would hope most people feel you are a genuine & caring person because you've proven it over and over again.
The problem with blaming others and not taking responsibility for your own actions is lack of personsal growth. He is taking a shot to the wallet and his business model is being tarnished. Blaming "haters" and "trolls" will get him nowhere.
@@josephdoiron8376 Did you even watch the video? He isn't blaming haters, he's bringing them up. I guess troll can just attack someone and the person being hated on can't even bring up the haters. Nah man..
Read the title there sport!
We love you Pete!!! Me and my girlfriend love to wind down and relax together after a long day while watching you on our television! You provide free entertainment to so many people, while running a full-time business, an ebay, a website, etc...
I know it's not easy but try to ignore all the haters. The vast majority of viewers love your channel and your content. It's just a vocal minority that love to speak up and complain about anything they can. We have definitely missed your videos the last few days, and I hope things can go back to normal soon. But take as much time as you need, your mental well-being is more important. Thanks for all the years of enjoyment and entertainment Pete!
U 2 sound like losers
Pete, we know pawn shops typically only offer 10-30% of retail value, you typically offer 40-50%. We also know you are a business, not a charity. You also take risk, electronics can fail, items could be counterfeit, etc. Any hate is usually coming from young, ignorant people who don't know business. 99% of your viewers, like me, got your back 🙂
This ISNT A PAWN SHOP. Get it straight
calm down, you psychopath @@wisdomveritas6281
@@wisdomveritas6281 how long were you upset about the confusion? Enough to enlist CAPS LOCK KEY, huh? Just chock full of wiz-dumb eh? Thanks for the giggles Friend
10% is a lie. Most places are 50%, but it’s really like 30-60% depending on the item.
@@hoosierbaddy3052 you really thought you did something, huh? 🙄
As a small business owner for over 25 years, I always thought you paid too much for items. Non business people don't truly understand the costs associated with running any business. You seem to go out of your way to help sellers get something for their items. Your honest dealings are beyond reproach. God Bless You!
I 100% agree Pete offers way more than I would sometimes. This is a business not a charity. These people are not being forced to sell their items.
Amen to that 🙏
Well Pete made $2,400 off giving the guy only $50 lmao. What a scam.
@@nicholasnoriega1205 Obviously you don't understand business
@@nicholasnoriega1205if he had made only $1, would the guy have gave some of his money back?
Obviously not. Business pays those who take the risk.
Hey Pete, it sucks you have to deal with that stuff. I haven't been watching you all that long but ever since I have I always felt you were honest and upfront with people, that's what made me continue to watch. You seem like a really honest and upfront guy, hope things get better.
Pete, during covid, it was difficult times for many of us and it was always, ALWAYS great to watch your videos to uplift the spirit. Keep doing what you do
I just started watching your channel a few weeks ago and your honest “wheeling & dealings” with the characters that come into the shop just makes my day and all the animals are precious and judging by your interaction with everything around you including your staff, I can tell you are such a great guy and that is the main reason I watch the channel. Hope you are feeling better!
You’re a good guy Pete and shouldn’t feel bad. You make a lot of deals and pay fair prices.
There’s Thousands who enjoy your content all about you, your store, the team and of course the animals.
I do hope the comments of the minority doesn’t put you off too much as your videos are a joy and they would be missed.
Didn't you listen he is making over 2 grand from that stuff wonder if the guy will get 100.
@@Larry-zt8sk I did listen, and he’s in contact with the original seller to give them a share of the profits.
Perhaps you should try listening.
He's going to give him another 20 bucks
ya pete is super ethical. sealed retro games can be high risk
@@Larry-zt8sk did all you asshats complaining that Pete's such a bad person write letters to pawn stars every week cause they made oh so much money?? Also what's everyone's jobs? How much do you make? Let all of us judge if you deserve what you make. Then send you and your family threats and force you into giving your boss some of your paycheck back... that sounds pretty ignorant doesn't it??
You’re an amazing person, Pete! I love watching you and your animals at the shop! I will always stand behind you! ❤
I've followed your channel for a few years now and I'm a reseller myself. I've always felt that watching your videos that you're putting yourself out there. Personally I couldn't do it, it's just not my cup of tea. I've always felt you're more than fair with customers. Keep up what you're doing and try not to let hate get you down. That's only giving the hater more power over you.
It makes me sad to know people want to be hurtful and rude. Love your show. Love and prayers for you and your family
Pete is so transparent that even his drink is see-through. Pete, don't listen to the haters. How many people that sold you junk came back to return some of the money? A deal is a deal, and there's no going back and renegotiating it. You're a great guy Pete! A big hello to you and the gang from California.
Love it.... *Even his drink is transparent*
Why would anyone come back to return some of they money when they are pay is half of what it’s worth? That doesn’t even make any sense.
@@dewilew2137 ?????
At the end of the day, people don't have to sell for what Pete is offering. If you want more, DON'T SELL IT, but stop being winey bit@hes.
I just started watching in the last week or so and I have been “catching up” as much as I can. I keep watching because it is the most authentic, genuine channel I have seen. It breaks my heart that you had such an awful experience and I completely understand your shock and concern after this type of personal attack. I am so sorry this happened to you and I pray that you are able to put this behind you and continue with the great videos that I’ve been watching. I so completely and thoroughly enjoy watching because it’s so real. Your channel is the most REAL I have seen. (I mean even the Iranian Nomads are putting fake drama in their videos) when people, me at least, want to see authenticity and genuine real life. Some people just have too much anger. Don’t let them change you. You were doing nothing wrong before so please do not feel you need to change anything now. Such anger filled people should be ignored. ( nothing will bother them more)👍😊
Omg Peter ! We absolutely love all your videos on TH-cam, I'm a reseller here in Dublin Ireland and people just understand how it actually works .. You and your team are all amazing, please stay strong and continue to make great content ! All our love from Dave & Paula in Dublin, take care ....
You have always shown to be a genuine, altruistic person. Sadly, you will always get people that are looking to create drama. Pete, your loyal viewers know what you stand for & we appreciate what you're doing. You exemplify what it means to be a family man, caregiver of animals, a business owner & a solid contributor to your community! Please continue your great work & do not get discouraged by a few negative individuals....
As a fellow retail I understand your situation more than you can realize. The fact is there are hateful , mean people out there who only want to cause pain to others. Personally I feel bad for those who live their lives with this kind of hatred in their hearts. Remember there are a lot more of us than there are of them. Please don’t let this overwhelm you because you are bigger and much better than this. We love what you do. The world is a better place with people like you in it. Thanks for sharing. Marty Jax fl.
How do you figure that this person is “hateful” and “only wants to cause pain to others” when his primary concern was the guy getting ripped off? He went about it in a terrible way, but clearly he was upset by what he perceived as someone being taken advantage of. That is antithetical to the type of person you’re describing.
@@dewilew2137 Someone who conducts themselves in that manner, I would sincerely have doubts as to the how genuine their initial intentions are. A lot of SJWs just look for that little tiny pathetic spark to suddenly barrage someone with a bunch of hatred while masquerading as some moral paragon of society. It's all some pathetic attempt to belittle others while making themselves feel better about their own sad lives.
You are a good man that loves his family and pets ❤ Please, don't get discouraged by outrageous people. How else would that kid learn without going out in the world and negotiate with people? Love watching you and Honey ❤
Hey Pete, my wife and I love watching you, we especially love Honey and your bird. To us you are a very honest man. God bless you and your family.
Pete you don’t need to explain yourself! Any true and loyal viewer knows exactly who you are. You are a very good guy and there will always be trolls out here. These people literally hate themselves and have no life so they attack others behind a screen. Don’t let it get to you and keep up the good work!
I'm so sorry to hear this! Pete this is just crazy. The haters just want attention. Why are they watching if they hate you so much? People just suck sometimes.
Pete, your a business you paid what the customer asked. I see nothing wrong with that. You are a generous man and many times you pay more than I would for items, you have nothing to be ashamed about or be sorry for. The vast majority of us love you, your employees and your channel. Keep up the good work and don't let the haters get you down!
@@dwsweettea63 -- Why is criticism passed off as simply trolls? And "professional trolls?" That would mean they get paid, and who would pay a guy to harass a reseller shop? Nonsense. Those people were vociferous about their opinions, and many took it waaaay too far, but they are not trolls. They were genuinely pissed.
And while i think much of their behavior is wrong. i can understand people being upset. We all operate on different moralities. For some, "You paid what the guy asked for," is perfectly moral. It's not for me. I would always want to pay a decent portion of the value, or at least give them a fair assessment of the value, and how much of it i am offering. Whether it's 25% or 50%, i would still want to be upfront about it all.
His employee may not have known a game would sell for 1K, but he definitely knew those sealed ones had some decent value. Games are their specialty. And if it's morally justified to you because "that's what they asked for," then good for you. I just wouldn't feel like a good person doing that, without the guy knowing that there is potentially a lot of money in the games.
A week ago, I bought a vintage Singer Sewing Machine model 66 redeye meant condition including the booklet for 300 bucks I was so happy this is for my dad he is a tailor and had worked so hard for his whole life to feed the family. This machine's age is as the same as my dad's if he still alive today. I couldn't believe how people keep these items so perfect for so many years. I really like to watch your TH-cam channel It is always something new to watch and learn. Thank you, Pete.
I started binge watching you about a month ago. I found you to be very honest, patient and kind. Even with people who try to scam you. You have good character and ignore the haters.
Pete, we love your channel and watching what you do. Unfortunately, there are people out there that have nothing better to do than to give other people a hard time. All I have to say is screw those people. There’s plenty of those out there that love your channel and know you are not out there to screw anyone over and you do the right thing. Let it roll off your shoulder and carry on-we love what you do and know that you are a good man that isn’t out to screw anyone over!
Right! He is not running a charity, sometimes you make a buck, sometimes not. Pete is a classic example of ' Why America is great ' Our DNA is being changed by unreasonable, illogical, hateful, people, with an agenda, a list, just like the communists,1984, our 'brave new world '. Pete is a f......g star, with humanity, politesse, trés sympa. Bisous Pete
Yeah the people attacking him so personally and extremely are fucking psychos. We all know Pete is a good man. Personally I don't see a problem with getting a great deal once in a while.
@@Nightfall4.3 I agree. Especially the idiot who made new accounts just to hate. That person should be found and offered some counseling. If they want it or not. The hate is this world is an epidemic.
We enjoy you , your employees and especially the animals! Please never stop doing what you do! Thank you
I'm so sorry this happened to you, Pete.
I have so much respect for how you carry yourself. We need more people like you out there.
Pete, I rarely comment on videos here, but I have been following your channel for a long time, and have always found you to be a very decent man. I have seen you offer people more than they were asking when the item was worth more. In this instance the seller got his asking price so that should really have been the end of it - as he walked away with what he wanted. There will always be haters, people who hide behind the anonymity of the internet and badmouth others - sometimes just for the heck of it, but occasionally with justification - but I have always found you to be fair and decent, and, at the end of the day, you do have to make a living - and, as they saying goes, "some you win, some you lose"! If the hate mail gets personal you should report it to the authorities, but please keep doing what you are doing, and your loyal followers will continue to enjoy your content. Be strong!
Honestly, really no need to explain yourself. For anyone following you, knows you’re stand-up guy.
Happy to hear about your home run deals. You definitely deserve it!
I'm relatively new to the channel and I love what you do. Don't let one rotten apple spoil the entire bunch. Toss it aside and keep on keepin' on, my friend.
Well said
Pete, please keep putting up more TH-cam videos. I enjoy 'visiting' you through them. Don't be discouraged by the haters out there; a person who is determined to despise another will find some reason to do so no matter what you do---it tells all of us more about them than it throws mud on you.
Keep up the good work!
Hey Bud... Please do not get discouraged... there are a lot of people out there that love your videos. There are just some jerks out there that live to post hate on the internet. I have been a picker for 20 years now, you are an inspiration to those of us who do what we do. You are more than fair to people, and a gentlemen. I was just telling my fiancé that when we go to Chicago we are going to visit. It is not your job to negotiate against yourself. You are more transparent than most of us... you go right on the computer and show people what their stuff is worth, and give them a breakdown. Trolls on the internet live for baiting people into arguments... just don't engage.. Judge by the number people who send you gifts, post cards and love... Don't doubt yourself. Finally, I happen to be a practicing attorney... to sellers.... you have ever right to do your own research before you sell something to a picker.
Peter you have always been upfront and fair. I've learned so much about pricing and buying from you. I watch your channel and feel a part of your family of customers, employees, and pets.
Can u look in the mirror and say that. Unbelievable.
Your delusional! He's a ripoff artist
@@IamAnubis-oj7tk what a stupid comment !!!!
@@josephdoiron8376 Why do you keep supporting him by viewing his channel, then?
Pete you’re one of the good ones. Don’t ever let the hate in this world change that. Thanks for all you share with us!! ❤❤
Your diehard viewers all know how you handle these situations, with humbling grace and understanding, always making it right with the seller! Keep your heads up Pete and gang, with love from a soggy Western NC
I'm not even into pawning items but the fun of your channel is how nicely and fairly you
treat people and the love you share with your animals. As a matter of fact it appears that the store actually belongs to the cat.
I'm sure the cat thinks so lol
so sorry Peter, please dont let these weirdos affect you. You are caring, fair, and authentic... i personally look up to you. thank you for everything you do!
Pete, you truly are a great sport and trustworthy guy. I know that someone like you can sleep easy at night knowing that you are MORE than honest, however, it must hurt badly to have others lie and say disgusting things from their dark keyboards. Please do not let the few rotten apples spoil the bunch. Keep up the great work.
It’s the seller’s responsibility to make sure they do research on items before selling them. If they are satisfied with the amount they are getting, it’s a fair deal. You’re a business who has more expenses than just buying inventory for your shop, and you need to make profit to cover all those expenses. Don’t let people bring you down for earning money for you and your family.
This would be true for a regular pawn shop, but it’s somewhat less true for one with a large TH-cam following and an eBay store.
No it's still true. There's a reason that guy only asked for $50. If he paid for the games he knows how much he paid for them.
@@dewilew2137why does TH-cam change that fact? Is it bc you act different when you are recorded? The legal definition of fair market value is what an able buyer is willing to pay an an accepting seller - when Pete offers (and has the cash in hand) he’s an able buyer expressing what he’s willing to pay, when the seller accepts = fair market value. Everything else is just speculation. Pete is able to maximize value due to how he setup his business. Whether or not that process is recorded makes no difference.
Pete, I recently subscribed and yes this is an old video and i while i must admit that i cannot honestly stop watching your videos, you always come across as one heck of a decent human being trying to run a small business and your always so fair to your customers and you even are too nice in my opinion ! .....I don't think you were under any obligation to refund the guy who sold the games, as no one forced him to bring in his items to your store and there was nothing stopping him doing the research and taking the time to find out the actual value of the games themselves ! .....You are constantly taking risks when you buy items (such as all of those electrical goods) where you buy them in good faith, without having time to test them, only to find they have technical issues later....Now, my question is where are these same 'scumbag trolls' when you take a massive loss on these types of items which you have handed over cash in good faith to sellers, who are obviously trying to palm of junk to you and are being actually dishonest by saying the goods are in working condition ! Love Your Channel Pete !! Jay - Melbourne, Australia
So sorry you had to endure that harassment Peter. You are doing this to entertain us and give us a glimpse in your business and life. Thank you. I'm sure so many of us really appreciate you, I know I do. Do you friend. Do you.
Also god forbid you make a living for you and your employees and family. 🤨
Exactly. People are so ignorant! Like Pete's not allowed to make out on a deal instead of barely making 30 percent for once??? There's so many idiots watching these videos it amazes me!!
He mad 40 times what he paid that guy. People that go and sell things at pawn shops are pretty desperate you know!
@@josephdoiron8376not always man, the guy didn't even mention anything like that for one. All he said was he wanted to clear up space. It's okay to get a great deal once in a while. If a person found a box of things at a garage sale, figured some are probably not worth much while others possibly pretty good, theyd take if for a good deal. Petes a good man, anyone who watches his videos can clearly see that.
Why dont you take something worth over 2000 dollars and sell it to Pete for 50 bucks then if its ok. You know damn well he took advantage of that guys ignorance!
Nothing but good, postitive thoughts about you, your videos, and how you treat your animals, Pete. Honey and Ruby are one of the best parts of your content Keep being you.
Amen to all of your kind thoughts for Peter.
I love the way you handle your business! Its one of the main reasons I am watching all your vids!
The interaction and your honestly is so refreshing. I never see you get excited with trying to buy low and sell high
You keep doing exactly what you have been doing mate! I hope business is good!
Love your channel. Been watching regularly for a couple of years now.
I’ll admit, when the customer asked for $50, I was like “I want that deal!” I’m a picker and I need a home run every once in a while. It’s a grind and those kinds of deals are what keep me going. Kinda like playing the lottery?
Anyway, there are endless channels on this platform glorifying buying low and selling high…retail, garage sales, real estate, cars, stock…It’s called business. It’s not like your guy lowballed the customer. The seller set the price. Yes, maybe ethically he could’ve said something, but he also sees the many times where the company loses out on what he buys. Is the “angry mob” upset when he OVERPAYS for an item(s)? When it sits on the shelf for over a year and never sells?
The internet is filled with dumb, ignorant trolls. You’re good bro. Your followers aren’t going anywhere.
Guy could have put his stuff on eBay himself. With you he does no work, no research, no photos and descriptions, gets instant cash, no wrapping and posting, no lost parcel issues and no hassles from the buyers. In addition he came to you, you didn't knock on his door. You've done the work to put yourself in the position to buy and sell and to make a profit. People are just jealous.
Exactly!!!
💯
Don't let the trolls get to you Pete. There is a bigger amount of people who appreciate what you do. Hope you feel better soon. keep bringing those awesome content videos. God bless you and your family.
I recently subbed and I love your videos. How does anyone give you any hate!?!?!? You are amazing and are so fair to your customers.
For the most part, having watched a lot of your videos, it’s easy to tell that you are a straight up guy. You need to make a profit, that’s what you do without ripping people off. Keep on, keeping on Peter.
Hey Pete im a reseller as well,I love to watch your videos. I watched that video and the guy asked 50 bucks and Ryan gave it to him. He got what he asked what more can you do. Its very nice of you to even consider giving the guy more. Your a much better guy than me I would have not offered. Keep doing what your doing your a great guy and I love your channel... Cheers 😊
Agreed. I also see a lot of similar deals made with large profit margins on other reseller channels here on You Tube but you won't find the same negativity in the comments that you find here. As a buyer, I'm looking to pay as little as possible for an item. As a seller, I'm looking to get as much as I can reasonably expect for an item. On either end of that transaction, it's up to each party to do his or her research prior to completing the deal. It may sound harsh but that's the truth. The fact that Steve is reaching out to the buyer to give him more money at this point is nothing but a nice gesture on his part.
Learn the difference between you're and your. Clown.
I would not buy from you
@@scottrunnels3958 lmfao
That's not the point. I understand business dumbass. The reason people are mad is because he made the 2nd video bragging about it and the ONLY REASON he is addressing this is because he F'd up making that 2nd video and now his channel is tanking
I saw a hate video by some clown talking about how in his opinion you got the best of a customer but every comment on his page had 100% full support for you and everyone that commented about him trashed him and told him he was pathetic..So don't sweat these trolls Pete..These trolls forget that the sellers come to you because they don't want to do the work selling stuff on Ebay..they want the easy sell and they always have the last say anyway and could easily say no thanks and walk out the door..Your not in the business to make friends..its to make money..With the cost of electricity..maintenance..employees..insurance and everything else it takes to even run a business it's not that easy..it all boils down to jealousy and envy and these trolls carry a heavy load ..We support you sir..i have not seen you force anyone to sell you anything..good luck to you and your family and those selling always have that option to say No thank you ...
Pete, you are an authentic bird, a quality cat, an honest man's man... Journey on my friend, keep sharing your world, its great stuff!!
Pete, I'm a student of human nature and I consider myself an excellent judge of character after decades and decades of experience and I knew in a very short time watching your videos that you are a fair, decent and honest man with a big heart. You are what I would want my son to grow up to be and the type of guy I would want my daughter to marry if I was young again and raising kids. You feel like family to me when I watch you. Don't ever let the jerks in this life get you down. Remember all the people here that care deeply about you. And take care of your health, stress is very hard on you. Just delete or block the jerks and keep doing what you do, buddy. Take care.

UK reseller here, I found your videos a year ago when I was bed bound for a month after surgery. I caught up with everything from the start over the next few months while I was off work recovering and always look forward to new content. I can honestly say that you are a fair businessman. I am a part time reseller, I started 20 years ago when I returned to education and needed an income to keep my family while i studied and I understand that there must be a profit if you want to survive but you can always be fair, which you are and many people are not. Ignore the idiots, they are jealous of a successful man with a happy life and a happy family. Keep doing what you are doing!
You don't have to explain yourself or even mention the animals. Just found your channel and you are an amazing person ❤️
Pete, We admire you! There are A-holes that write smack on every channel they look at. You are successful and they are not expect for being A-holes. You are a good man.
Some people are just plain crazy. You are being more kind than most. Don't let a nut job and their weird obsession with you get you down.
My sales and understanding of eBay has benefitted from watching you. I thank you.
If I buy a $1 item at a yard sale and sell it for $100, I don't go back to the sale and pay them more! Sometimes you lose money and sometimes you hit the jackpot. No shame in that, reselling is always a gamble.
Terrible analogy. The garage sale has a listed price. People come into Petes shop to get a fair price. Not to be given less than 5% of what’s worth. Even Pete claims 50% is fair. The poor guy got $50 and they made $2,400 & counting and that’s not even including the console. He rightly got called out by many and now is trying to do damage control and deleted the video. Playing the victim card and you guys are iust eating it all up. Just because Pete has some cute pets doesn’t make it right.
@@nicholasnoriega1205you’re the loser who emailed him over and over 😂😂. It’s so obvious. Only person in the entire comment section going on and on and on.
@@nicholasnoriega1205 The guy said he wanted 50 dollars. *he* named the price. So it is the same as the garage sale comparison.
That's really sad that someone attacked you personally and said mean things about your family..😮 Pete I certainly hope this doesn't stop you from doing the video's and content you put out..🤔😢 You and the staff are all good people and help people always and have been really good to lots of customers..😍 Keep up your hard work and don't let anyone bring you down.. Take care Pete and guys..👍💕🔥👊
I was thrilled to learn this store is only 45 mins north of me. I love the honesty, the demeanor, the calm & fair way he makes a deal and anyone who doesnt understand how these stores have to work to stay in business, i implore them to read, watch, and understand before saying anything. If someone is just pushing dollars, they're out of business. This place is very very VERY fair and honest. I can imagine the hours and hours it takes to make it work and im a fan. Glad i found this channel, this store and cant wait to visit.
I hope things are going better now. I enjoy watching you very much and how you deal with customers and items you get. I don't post often but want you to know you have support. Thank you for everything you do!
Seriously Peter, you gotta remind yourself the more money, more problems. The more love you get online, the more hate you get. You could literally be a saint and there will always be people who line up to take shots at you. Don't make the mistake of thinking that these are reasonable people who will understand if you just explain things clearly. Those that actually watch your videos see all that you do and have so much admiration and respect for your work ethic, your kindness, humor, we see you support the people who work for you and your desire to be fair while maintaining a competitive edge in the resale market. How you are able to juggle everything you do and on top of it deal with this kind of crap from random self appointed experts and on top of that with everything you guys have been through losing one of your own....just remember that the more popular you get, the more subscribers, the more of the other side of the coin you'll get too and when you get the feeling you need to defend yourself just stop and take a look at how much you contribute. Love and Respect ♡
No the more money the more homes he has. He also gets paid once a month from TH-cam.

Why are u upset they didn't cancel your food stamps
@@IamAnubis-oj7tk Food stamps? Why do you assume they are on foodstamps?
@@IamAnubis-oj7tk Nothing wrong with having more than one home
How can anyone not like you or the way you operate, you are one of the kindest human beings I've ever seen on YT.
People are awful.. this man is such a kind soul
@@star2be83 I didn’t know kind souls give people $50 for a $2,400 worth of stuff lmao. You guys are ridiculous. He got called out on ther unethical behavior but you people just eat it all up because he shows his cat.
It's all business. Of all the resellers I've followed on TH-cam in the past decade, you've always been transparent and looked to help those out that come to your shop while staying profitable. With reselling there is no guaranteed profit with secondary goods. Appreciate you sharing. --Orlando
Whatever happened to the common knowledge that the people who bring their things into your shop can always say NO! No one is forcing them to take your offer. Most people don't want to deal with putting things on eBay, sitting on them and then having to ship them. They rather just get the quick cash and be done with it.
Haters are just jealous they don’t have the attention of good people, like you and your team. Pete, keep doing the good work you do. Your real audience loves your videos and your team. Do not change, EVER!!!
As a reseller, you have to factor in also all the deals you make that don’t pan out with massive profits. Take advantage of the great deals and minimize losses
Spot on mate... Gamblers lose $1,000 and then win $500 and everyone expects a round of drinks... hope that makes sense 😅
The analogy makes zero sense in comparison to this situation. If the house stacked the deck and cheated you would be more like this situation. This guy was assuming Pete was a fair and ethical business owner but that is false.
I love you and your channel. You are a very decent gentleman. I am so sorry this happened to you. Some people are just really broken and struggling, they direct their hurt and pain on others. I really feel sorry for those people because they are missing the whole point of life!
I’m so sorry and sad that this happened to you. I just became a subscriber last week and I love your videos ❤ There will always be haters out there but remember for every hater you have thousands of readers that love you. I love seeing Ruby and Honey. You have a beautiful soul don’t change for anyone ❤❤❤
Never let the negative people get to you. Your channel is very uplifting and positive. We appreciate you brother. 👍👍👍✌️✌️🤘🤘🤘🤘
Pete, So very sorry you had to deal with the bullying and hate. 😔. Your channel is wonderful. 😍🤩 It got me through some difficult times. You and your incredible staff should be proud at how respectful you conduct your business. Thank you!!🙏🙏🥇
The fact that you're explaining the situation, speaks volumes to your character. You're running a business - those that are selling items to you don't have the platform and/or business that you have and to mention, they may have exhausted other means of selling. Reminds me of that saying, "If you want to make everyone happy...sell ice cream." I enjoy watching your show.
As a fellow TH-camr, we have had several events like this. Our rule is as follows… if the comment is not constructive, it is removed. If it evil, it is reported. Haters will always be present. When you give up on one video, they win.
Your too good of a man. You are fair and provide a very needed service. You will do the right thing. Thank you for the entertainment. At the end of the day, that is all TH-cam is.
Keep your head up Pete there’s ups and downs but you’ll get through this thank you for showing the rawness of the business and what you go through doing TH-cam again thank you your true supporters are still here 👍🏽 it’s a bad Apple from a whole tree
It has been shown time and time again that you are a stand up guy pete. haters are going to hate. there are always going to be wackos out there with too much time on their hands. be proud of what you are doing.
Goody to shoes
Pete is working overtime in the "Hater" manufacturing business!
@@josephdoiron8376you're working overtime at being a hater
He did it to himself. I dont do crooked deals and advertise it. He is hurting his own brand and posting blame elsewhere. The truth is hard to handle. Maybe he will become a better person and business owner after this?
Negative comments weigh so much more than positive comments for some reason, they're very hard to shake off.
You do what you gotta do for your mental health, but remember that there are far, FAR more positive people that love, LOVE your content and you! Keep your head up, you're doing a great job and second hand stores go out of business left and right all the time, you must be doing a lot right to have your place running still! And your channel is doing pretty good! You're a great guy man!❤
Hey Pete, I’m really sorry this person made you feel this way man. You are such a wonderful person with a great spirit and heart. There are a lot of people like myself that understand if you made better profit than expected that you’d make it right with original seller; which really isn’t something you ever have to do, it’s a choice for you.
Try not to let these people get to you and I’m sorry this person fucked with you. You’re a great man!
I hate that people have to hate on a good guy like u Pete! I love your channel I can't wait for you to come out with new videos buddy just keep doing what u do buddy much love
Why bother reading the absurdities emanating from the comment section on your channel!
Simply create your content and ignore the comments unless they were prompted by yourself. Otherwise, ignore!
@@bertadelaudebri7179 Unfortunately, I think it's much harder to do that when your channel involves a physical and readily-available public location. He was right about the snowball effect of one person commenting a bunch of potentially criminal messages. One person becomes a hundred overnight. Removing the videos and addressing the issue was absolutely the best call here.
For his own safety and that of his family, keeping an eye on the comments and messages is an unfortunate necessity.
@@brennanluvaul-hays243 indeed...
I feel he will be leaving the prices out of future videos so this doesn't happen again. If comments gets under the skin of the TH-camr there usually a grain of truth in it that hurts. Pete admits his mistakes and makes him right as rain in my eyes.
I watch for entertainment and I really like what you guys do here. One viewer that is super pleased and hope to keep seeing more videos from you guys! Love the shop and how you take care of people. Keep on going! You got this!
I’m a full time reseller myself.
What a lot of people who aren’t in this business don’t understand are the additional costs of running as reselling business, such as storage space, shipping supplies, returns, taxes, advertising, scams, broken items, etc, etc, etc.
Great video. More power to you for running a TH-cam channel highlighting the business - I would never do it, for this reason.
Pete, I'm sorry that you've been injured by some negative people. Before I leave a comment I always think about what my mother said, if you can't say anything nice don't say anything. If I watch any TH-cam video and feel like leaving a negative comment I quickly leave the video. It's just not worth my getting angry, and I never want to perpetuate my anger. Take care of yourself, breath deep, and as you said, take a step back. Thanks for sharing, it's clear that you care about what you do.
Pete, you are a genuine person. Sorry you had to go through this. Will continue to watch.
oh man, don't let those people get you down. this channel is so much fun.
what those people don't understand is that the ENTIRE POINT is to make money. You always start off every negotiation with "what do you want to get out of this?" I've always thought that was way too generous of a way to open negotiations, but figured if that's your style, go for it.
the way I see it, if you happen to make a deal that's particularly to your advantage, then that's a win for you, and not some kind of "theft." EVERY... LAST... ONE of us knows that if we go to a garage sale and find.. I don't know, a Rolex for $1, every last one of us is going to hold our breath and go buy it, hope no one notices, and then go sell it. NONE of us are going to go up to the person running the garage sale and say, "actually, I want to give you way more than what you're asking for it."
don't let the trolls get to you. they're the ones that look like morons. It's super easy to sit in your living room eating Cheetos and judge someone else based on a youtube video.
keep up the great work.
Pete, you don't owe ANYONE an explaination! 99% of these people commenting are just jealous of your success, they have no idea what it takes to run a business!
It’s a business. Plain and simple.
Business of robbing people
@@emex313 just shut your mouth and go somewhere else!
@@emex313 You spelled government wrong! 🤣
@@emex313 He supports people paying his workers a living wage, he comes up with giveaways and gives subscribers a chance to win stuff every other video, he continues to his community and held a fundraiser for a man and his son who were struggling recently AND one of his workers just died suddenly. Just because you're jealous of him doesn't give you the right to lie and say crap like this. Find something productive to do, dude.
@@Tobikoyum7 you know what? You're so right. Your excuses definitely justify him ripping people off.
Nothing but respect for you and your business. Love the content even more once I visited store it is unusual almost knowing you from the content views then meeting you in person. Your store is stocked with quality items you know what sells and the higher quality items set your store apart from any other shop. Like they say haters gonna hate … don’t cop to it !
Do what your doing it works . Can’t wait to see Honey on my next visit. Sorry about Steve that’s a tragedy my condolences.
Pete, I’m so sorry that happened to you. I’m new to your channel so I’m kinda behind but I’ve seen enough to know that you’re an awesome person. I hope you were able to get past all of this. I just wanted to comment cause it hurt my heart a little to see someone like yourself get that kinda hate.
You are a super cool guy Pete, love the show and love your shop. You don't need to give your resume, you are killing it, forget these haters.
Pete, I’ve been watching you for a awhile now. You are one of the most honest & sincere people on TH-cam. Unfortunately, there are haters out there who hide behind a keyboard. I believe their main problem is jealousy! They can’t stand to see someone else be successful. I know it’s easy to say ignore them.....but just remember all the thousands of your subscribers who love & admire you. God bless you & your family.
Pete you keep doing what you do. The personality of your business is why ppl continue to have your back. Your success is the reason we can view your progress and struggles. Stay strong Pete💪
Be quiet clown, stop trying to suck up to him
Some people are rude and jealous. Keep up the Great work.
I was ready to give up reselling if not for finding this channel. That was a few years ago, and I am having my best year ever. Pete's videos taught, inspired, and entertained.
@@tillitsdone shut it clown 🤡
I found your channel a couple weeks ago and love watching. I don’t understand hate- in every transaction you set your price and customer has a choice. It sounds like you have trolls. They show up in many groups including spiritual groups. Haters. I never once felt you scammed. You research, offer price or say your not interested. I love your personality, I admire your experience/wisdom and can catch a scam pretty quick. I love your pets who seem very content and loved. Your co workers seem to be awesome as well. Don’t let haters hurt you. Unfortunately, they are everywhere and make it their mission to hurt others because they are unhappy within. Don’t ever feel you need to defend yourself. Delete haters so they can move on to spread their misery elsewhere. Don’t change a thing 💗
Pete you are a totally decent guy- I came across your channel like a month ago , and you are way way more ethical than most resellers- the hell with people hating on you - you’re a good dude- straight up-
Pete, you’re truly a good and honest man. I’ve watched what you put up with daily with people trying to peddle stolen or counterfeit goods, some with pure junk and you treat everyone with respect. I saw you buy something that had zero value for $20 because the lady was homeless. Don’t let the hate get to you. I watch your channel because you’re a good man, because you show everyone respect, because you’re honest. Keep up the great work!
This exactly why I couldn't do TH-cam. I be banned for telling people get f'd. Keep up the good work, nothing wrong with a win here and there and helps to make up for your losses that I'm sure happens from time to time.
I agree, I already had a previous channel banned
just subscribed to your channel and enjoy your fair interchange with people. You are one of the up front guys that's fair and honest. Not hard to see that! Hope to see many more, thanks Pete
Unfortunately my man, there are a lot of "Experts" online who find confidence in the confinement of their bedroom, sitting behind a keyboard spouting their "Expertise" all over the internet. Keep doing what you're doing.
You and your team are awesome. No mistakes. Don’t let the jerks get to you. Thanks for all the content!
Ignore the haters, you run a business. You pay your employees and support the community by providing people with jobs. Plus you have all the expenses that come with running a business.
Daaaaaaaaah
Listen, you are amazing! I am an MBA and watch you regularly. These people are keyboard tough guys. These people ask for the Manager every time they go into a restaurant. These people are losers that if were face to face with you, would do and say nothing. If you want to piss someone off, say or do anything. Do not let a few people dictate how you live your life and do business. You do great work. These people do not know how business works. You gave the guy what he asked for and no pawn shop in all the world would say, no please let me pay more. It’s business. The punishment for this guy for acting this way is his miserable life. Keep doing great work. P.S. you definitely love your animals and everyone knows that. In no way does having a camera pointed at them, hurts them.
To. Ryan and Peter. The shop is a buy, sell, swap, trade business. It’s not a charity shop. TH-cam comments can and do hurt a lot. However your TH-cam reputation is what you and all the staff stand by. It speaks for its self, due diligence works both ways. Good and bad. Responding to the haters and the don’t knows ,shows your personal character has Not wanting. Do not give in or up, thank you very much. From JR ,Yorkshire, England.
Peter long time subscriber, you have always been a great person to your customers and your staff is first rate. These haters don’t realize your running a business and all that it entails. Plus they obviously don’t watch your videos when you give people extra money or money for nothing just to help them out. Please keep up the great work at the store and your wonderful video content. Hope to one day make it to the shop, I live out towards Rockford but originally from Elgin area. Anyway just wanted to say thanks , and hope these haters just stop. Be well.
Pete you are awesome and you don’t owe these random strangers on the internet anything. Just live your life and keep doing your thing.
