Yo! I thought I was subbed to ya but just did. I'm subbed from my other channels so got ya back on here. Great collection bruv! I'm trying my best to keep up w my basement & garage set up. I'm getting a tech here soon to help get as many going that he can figure out. Stay on it & keep posting. Shorts will get you subs! 🤙🎮🕹️💪
I do agree with you and everyone in the comments. But I have to thow a but in, my game or an original you are not finding in new condition for 1k. They don't exist. I personally won't pay 2k for a refurbished Mrs pac man, my favorite arcade of all time. It's ONE game, 2k for a. 40 yr old game? No. But in new condition that's what they go for the dam repro art work is 200 bucks alone. I wish mine or originals were 1k but they simply aren't.
"collecting" is itself, a pathological "hobby." The enjoyment comes from consuming, owning, and hoarding the collection, rather than any utility, life enrichment, or investment value of the objects. Also, many collectors are very lonely people who accumulate large collections - because they never have to think about "what will my family do with this junk after I die?" How depressing that would be for the loved ones, having to dispose of some collection worth many thousands of dollars, that only 1% was every actually enjoyed?
@@TrueSeed-ft1jn good point I actually thought about that alot. I made a will on how to deal with my collection. I would hate to die and my family gives the high value items I do have away not knowing the value. I don't collect for reselling or investment. I would like them to sell my stuff and enjoy the money for themselves.
@@randysmith7094 I'm not a professional youtuber that doesn't have a real job. I do this for fun and to help people do mods and repairs.

I really wish this didn't end up in my recommendations. I feel dumber for having watched. A true collector will pay top dollar for ORIGINAL hardware. Why would they pay your price for refurb-trash? You are over-valuing your product. Have fun sitting on product you can't move. 🤣
Meh ill sit on it I just wanted more room but I have plenty of storage space. "A true collector" a collector is someone that has a collection of like items original or not. Also it's not over valued please show me where you can get these games for nothing? Not one of you broke people can show me, because not original or original, inexpensive doesn't exist. Like I said I don't think pinballs are worth 10k either but if you want a new one that's what you are paying like it or not. I don't make prices I just pay them like everyone else.
@@LastQuarterArcade you're calling someone broke because they don't want to pay your prices? Did it ever occur to you that you don't know what the hell you're talking about? I'm not a collector and I know the difference in the terminology that you're talking about. I also know that that hunk of refurbished garbage is not an original. There's no way someone's paying that much for something that's not an original. I have a friend that owns a retro arcade. Trust me, he's laughing at you.
@@cerebraltackle You lost me at you're not a collector. Please show me. Show me where you can get these machines for 1k? Original or my garbage? I'll take the L if you can show me. All these arcade collectors can't show me. I'd love to know and I'd thank you because I'd be buying from wherever that is from here on.
@@cerebraltackle No one is paying that for the "trash?" That's crazy because nowhere can you find my trash for 1k. So obviously people are buying these for that price otherwise these companies wouldn't be selling them for that. Economics my dear boy.
So I will say, I did just see one on ebay located in CT. In original condition but really nice. Would be great for me because I'm in CT. Here's the catch he wants $4,200 plus you can have it shipped for $800. So now we're at $5k. Also it works now but when was the monitor recapped? Pcb serviced? Is it going to die next month, next year? These are all things that need to be taken into account. Shipping will kill you believe me I've paid my fair share.
ANYONE can make a replica, but the point is to have the ORIGINAL. I will be very honest - don't collect because you have no idea about it... I assume you made this video just to get more views.
@@Retro-Adam77 oh so an arcade machine is more adult lol. Got it. People can collect what they want how they want I'm pretty sure Noone named you an authority on how to do it
Your trying to convince yourself 4000 is worth it then you start saying then you need people to move them so now your adding that to the price. The only person being annoyed about these cabinets is you.. Go away...
@@markpoland5748 no I think I'll stay. Also not one of you idiots can prove your point and show me the cost of these is lower. That is what they sell for, I didn't make the price up it is what it is. Also if you don't like the price you can simply not buy it.
I get the joke. He's the ignorant collector.
@@MrLaserpowered ah I was struggling but I get it now as well, he's the collector ha ha ha. He's a joke..

That open ice is way too much $4000 is ridiculous.
I agree, the value is totally there- and serviceability. 4 grand is definitely a good buy- especially pinball machines are up on the 12k plus range.
I'll give you $400 for the whole set.
Those are super cool but I would never pay that much. I get it but no way. Very cool collection you have there tho.

That dude is probably thinking of those newer POS smaller arcades. I bought nba jams one and it broke not to long afterwards
@@johnsmith6217 a arcade1up one? I had the nba jam one. I have to say I haven't had any issues with arcade1up
The cope is huge in this one.
This video has the most views of all my videos. I need to complain more! Thank you for your support people!!

The point is collect what you want how you want. I'm already way ahead of you, 19 consoles, 23 pinball machines and 16 arcade machines
How do you know what I have in my collection? I don't need to show it on TH-cam. And when it comes to consoles, I associate them only with children.

Why are you upset at what other people choose to do with the things that they own?
