The Axe on 3:51 is a cold steel bad axe. They occasionally sell for $100+ on ebay as they are discontinued. Unsure if that could of been included in the budget haha
I bought a new switch game from them online once. Not only was it not sealed, the cartridge had very minor marks on the gold, so it was clearly inserted into a switch before. $7 down the drain because they charge out the ass for shipping
I tried to exchange one of the "new" opened games a day later in the exact same condition with GameStop's new sticker still on it. They told me it had been opened so they could only accept it as used. On me as it's clearly stated in their double standard policy terms and conditions section.
@@henryfromplegia5194I've had sealed Switch games have small marks on the gold contacts before. I believe they test the game at the factory they're made in before they ship it out.
My favorite GameStop story in the past year was I went in to buy a used game for my switch... Found a nice box on the shelf took it to the counter... They tried to tell me I couldn't have the box with my game because it was the last used copy in stock... It took another 10 minutes to get their manager to agree with my logic that if it was the last copy, they didn't need to keep the box, and I should therefore be able to get it... Needless to say, I haven't been back there since.
Those old sports games like Madden and NBA 2K should be collected and taken to land field in New Mexico because no one buys those crap after they become irrelevant.
I paused the video when I saw it wanting to see the price and when It was $100 I started to properly cringe. This guy doesn’t have a clue really does he!
oppoturnity is everywhere, even at Dunkins xD - nice back to the root episode :) i'm still hoping we get the swap meet mission switch episode with Riff, Hotwheel Ricky and the Boys.
That power bank only has 3 charging ports. One is “in” only to charge it. It’s still an awesome power bank that charges at 65watts so you can use it for laptops or steam decks.
Kids don't let these TH-camrs make you think getting 7 to 9 bucks profit is worth when it comes to reselling cause when you ad up gas and shipping fees it's not worth it going back and forth to the post office!!! 💯
@@nickpapagiorgio2253 I think Caleb seems like a pretty nice guy overall, but he is a businessman before he is a gamer that's for sure, that's the vibe I get anyways! These guys have become addicted to re-selling, it's definitely an addiction that they can't stop once they start generating money. Hell, if you go to any flee market though literally 90 percent of the booths are re-sellers, sadly it's hard to get good deals but you can find good deals if you find the right sellers who aren't trying to flip something for a profit.
GameStop had a BOGO deal on their website for select new games. Purchased two games and picked up at the local store. One was sealed and one was opened. That doesn't scream "new" to me. F'n GameStop.
Hello! Just finished watching through the series, it’s absolutely amazing how you’re building this collection off the lists and I wish you the best of luck in completing it ^^ I do have a suggestion for one title and I’m not exactly sure if you came across it yet, it’s 13 Sentinels Aegis Rim for the switch and ps4, it very underrated and it deserves a lot more attention, beautiful artwork style and a great story, I highly recommend it if you ever see it
something i find funny about all the half priced book stores i see on phoenix resales channel is the fact they use masterlock on the cabnets.. those are so easy to pick open.. theres even some you can just shim open... and if youre really desperate.. you can sometimes just hit it just right with enough force and force it open... masterlock for padlocks is bad news.. weak security.. and for houses kwikset is just as bad.. easy to get a key to bump them open....
My local gamestop sell games "new" like this so when I go in and ask I always say if it aint sealed I dont want it and they just give me a look. Im sorry open is not new its the same as when you drive a car off the lot the value already deprecated.
That dans pawn shop you went to was in georgetown and I've bought a $2 xbox 360 game from there and sold it for $60 so they don't really check their games that great
Caleb i know West Virginia might not be a place you ever think of hitting but ive hit my local pawn and got a sealed Pokemon Mystery Dungeon on switch for $15
When I was 12 or 13 my oldest brother, addicted to meth, sold my acoustic guitar, all my DS games, all of the Xbox games, and our PS2 games to a Pawn Shop far more ghetto than this. I can’t video game shop at pawn shops for that reason alone😂 I’ll buy anything else there. That’s my cool story for the day👍

caleb fumbled the ball
GameStop will open the case, physically touch the disc, put it in the case, put a sticker on the case opening, and sell it to you "new". Gotta love em

@@kurtpaulsen6579That's a 200 IQ move right there.
Man im glad riff is his editor for this channel cuz he makes these videos worth putting myself thru
that's harsh, don't ya think?
Former GameStop employee. We got to rent out games. Your opened game was used and played by someone at the store.
Renting game are supposed to be for pre owned games as a former employee plus
These feel like the OG videos. Great content!
I love how riff always throws in a shameless plug 😂
and he has a podcast too
_ Riff
@@pluspixel of course 😂 time to watch that
Hahaha
Instead of letting a kid get it or a collector you picked it up and squeezed even more profit out of it. Nicely done
I have a huge pawn shop in West Frankfort IL. Their video came selection is pretty decent and they always hook me up with deals.
Great video! Your vids always make my day. You’re one of my favorite TH-camrs.
Those old sports games like Madden and NBA 2K should be collected and taken to land field in New Mexico because no one buys those crap after they become irrelevant.
They can be used as replacement cases but they often have those stupid stickers that are so hard to pull off
Just imagine this. Caleb is recording and you pull up next to him mimicking “Hank”. 😂
I love the throwback to baby phoenix. Those videos were great and I've missed seeing you on these hunts.
I never get tired of your videos man. Lol I'm glad you didn't cross off the wrong game like you almost did LAST time xD
Omg Riffs sarcasm hits so hard on these videos 😂
Great video guys!
Appreciate you!
“Aaaaand it’s clearly Game Exchange..” made me laugh so hard I woke my wife. Now I’m in trouble. WORTH IT
Editor Riff is the reason I watch these videos
Aaaaaand it’s clearly game exchange. I died! 😂😂 Riff is the best part of these videos!
Caleb, you are so right about the connections, that's the way life is
Rare footage of Riff saying "I love you" to Caleb.
It will never happen again
@@mikecaruso7012already saved a clip in the case it never happens again
@@ivanfernandez5847 lol nice
Don’t tell
Riff's edits are so good haha!
Someone can please tell me what is he using to scan videogames??
15:10 - USK is the german rating agency... amazing a german version in the US, PEGI is for the rest of europe. but the game should be multi language.
Unfortunately not usually worth as much as ESRB rated games. However there are a couple games that were exclusively printed in euro.
was just funny to see... I guess even for 25 nobody will buy it in the US, too exotic :) @@Lemonade_Stand_
Its neat seeing all these places in lexington. I lived just down the road by that one pawn shop. I need to hek ghm out.
Triangle Strategy is GREAT.
I want Caleb to dress up in a full Hater Hank costume for a holloween video.
UK logo ? It's the USK logo of death, destroyer of boxart from Germany 😂
Came here to say this 🙌🏻
That legend of heroes iii on psp over worth $200 at that half price books. Would have been a easy $100 to the switch collection
I paused the video when I saw it wanting to see the price and when It was $100 I started to properly cringe. This guy doesn’t have a clue really does he!
What time is that on?
@@SonGokuSannat 13:23
I got two words for you. Heckin' Steve..
“And its clearly Game Xchange lol”😂 Had me Dying😅
You hit up my two local pawn shops in Georgetown in the first part of the video. Ez pawn normally always has some solid deals.
"suck a lemon" hahahaha great :)
Great video as always, keep up the good work. I’m looking forward to the next one
I love how much mission switch stuff is coming out recently!!!
these og type pawn shop vids are def my favorite
The mustache game just keeps getting stronger!
i found "amazing tater" for GB in a pawnshop for 8$ USD.
Currently my most rare and most valuable game in my collection.
I would be living he dream if i could do that here in Brazil, people rather close their stores than sell at a low price
I can't wait to see you researching SMT V 😊
oppoturnity is everywhere, even at Dunkins xD - nice back to the root episode :) i'm still hoping we get the swap meet mission switch episode with Riff, Hotwheel Ricky and the Boys.
this video is banging haha been binging did we outsource editing on the other vids?
And p.s. Triangle Strategy is awesome too
That power bank only has 3 charging ports. One is “in” only to charge it. It’s still an awesome power bank that charges at 65watts so you can use it for laptops or steam decks.
Hi Phoenix, I just started my reselling business on eBay. Do you have any tips?
Kids don't let these TH-camrs make you think getting 7 to 9 bucks profit is worth when it comes to reselling cause when you ad up gas and shipping fees it's not worth it going back and forth to the post office!!! 💯
and that is amazon pricing. On ebay all those are about break even prices.
For the average person. No. He just sends everything to Amazon and they sell it for him. He doesn’t need to individually ship items to buyers.
Playing triangle strategy now and its amaaazing! Really love it!🥰
Triangle Strategy is definitely worth a purchase
I'm just wondering how many days after completing this series does he sell everything off like he did with the GC gambit
Well, his name is Phoenix Resale and he is a businessman, so I would guess he would sell them pretty quickly.
@leadme2thebliss21 Well, it rubbed people the wrong way after the GC series since a lot of those he begged for discounts

I felt bad for laughing at the food stamp joke but it was great
these are the phoenix resale videos I live for....

Love the videos. But wouldn't the cost for the box of donuts wipe out any profit you made from the pawnshop?
@13:13 that psp game Legend of Heroes song of the ocean that was marked 100$ I sold one literally a week ago for 300$ lol

What app does he use to look up prices for games ? And reseller value ? Anyone please help

❤ your stuff keep it up 😊😊
Finally bought Splatoon 3 a year after it came out. I have been waiting til you got that one.
Lol love your videos but sucks trying to collect out of the same stores cause I live in Lexington too. Keep it up tho.
At 13:21 that psp game legend 3 of heroes song of the ocean (behind pokemon diamond ), is worth way more that $100 .
Love your videos keep up the amazing content!!
I like the music used playing in the background
Love your editor LMAO

Love the hustle
I hate individual pricing at pawn shops. My Cash America for years all games were x amount depending on how new they were. Now theyre all IP!
What app do you use to check your prices on games
What app you can resell and check the prices?
Sees random ds *crouches like he's steve irwin* right next to me is a blimey dealll
Where is your buy list?
Glad to see some old school hunting!
What app do you use to look up the items?
Phoenixx! you should do an xbox project series ! (Just giving an idea lol bc you did do playstation, gamecube and switch)
does anyone know what the app called for scanning products?
whats the name of the app you use to look at prices
Not hater hanking, but how much did you spend on the doughnuts to get the 20 dollars off?
I always find a lil sumsum at the gaming section at pawns
If you've played and like Octopath traveler on Switch then* Triangle strategy will be fun
i saw a switch kiosk in a video it reminded me of you
What resurfacer do you recommend
Yay, actual game hunting video
Why I buy used at GameStop, unless I preorder and pick it up on release day.
What is your avg turn around on games you buy and sell?
Whats that for an App to Check prices?
Pawn Shop 🏪 Flips! $3.00 to $31.95 Call of Duty Double ⏫⏫ Pack!
Another day with Caleb getting games
Caleb i know West Virginia might not be a place you ever think of hitting but ive hit my local pawn and got a sealed Pokemon Mystery Dungeon on switch for $15
Bonaventure hat….where did you get it?
Been wheeling and dealing in Georgetown I see!
So how long till the switch collection is sold again for another project? Lol
When I was 12 or 13 my oldest brother, addicted to meth, sold my acoustic guitar, all my DS games, all of the Xbox games, and our PS2 games to a Pawn Shop far more ghetto than this. I can’t video game shop at pawn shops for that reason alone😂 I’ll buy anything else there. That’s my cool story for the day👍
Does anyone know the name of the app he use for pricing?
Would love to know how much u spend on gas for $9 profit
I spent $15 on Zombies ate my Neighbors, that's crazy expensive.
no vid today why?
Ikr 😢
Come to australia and try this.
My local pawn shop does buy two get one free on all games
I probably have a dumb question how can you tell if a Nintendo GBA game isn't real?
Legend of Heroes III Song of the Ocean PSP $100 is a steal!
Awesome t shirt 👕 caleb 😍
