- In this video I hit up three AMAZING video game stores in Illinois to do some good old video game hunting for games to flip on eBay and Amazon. I spent way too much money on this trip... but I wouldn't change a thing.

Get a real job, you are nothing more than a vulture.
I hope no regular person wanted any of those games / systems you bought, in the name of greasing the wheels of your slimy operation. This applies to you picking up Switches at retail stores and reselling them too. It's shit.
Actually the jokes on you, vultures have the most powerful digestive system in the animal kingdom so THANKS FOR THE COMPLIMENT CLAIRE!
Claire you sound kinda salty if ya ask me, the man is running a business that is very successful. He is making money and having fun doing it, what’s better?
Bro no need to be jealous because you have to get up at 7 tomorrow to go to Burger King while this guy makes bank doing what he loves lmao
get a real job lmao like you? and be miserable! no thanks! we the crazy people who don't follow the herd are the ones to change the world not the 9-5ers get out of that imaginary box. And if anything you should learn from him not to sell games maybe but to ask your self what can I do to become more valuable. He learned a new skill and you hate him for it.
Freedom to dream !!! 🌪
Man people are such haters! This guy goes around looking for the deals that everyone else can look for! HE found some great games and in all reality his purchases are helping the game stores that we all love stay in business! The game store where he spent 900+ it looked like he was the only customer in the whole store. So before you hate you should look at the good he is doing for our community! Keep up the great work Caleb!
Haha thanks brother!
People call him a scalper but hes not scalpers buy up high demand stuff then sell them for 3x its retail price this guy is finding deals then selling them for retail price or a little lower hes not asking for a grand on a ps5 after paying $600 hes buying games for a few bucks and making like at best $10 off it in return hardly the same as a scalper
When you sense a person with sanity nowadays, you have to stop by and give him/she a hug or like, because it's rare!🌝
To be fair he went in at opening. Who's gonna be at a video game shop at 7 am. No hate I still respect Caleb just wanted to point that out.
Awsome love watching your videos 👍
I had anxiety while you were driving and showing the collection
Edit: never mind I just realized that someone else is driving, I live in the UK so the driver seat is on the right instead 😂
Im pretty sure his dog was driving

Haha same!!!
@@qlocworc dudes wife isn't a dog and the peagle was in the back seat
“ so you gonna add that to your personal collection”
“ nah never get hung on your own supply”
Instant regret
Amazing amazing! Great finds, love the videos, and wish you nothing but the best, thanks as always for the amazing content, great day man you deserve it!
You can pay extra to have Wata remove the security stickers.
Your video is very very interesting. I’m looking forward to your future project. You earn yourself a new subscriber
Hey get that hulk hogan game graded then send it to hogan's Beach bar or something there's a small fee to have him autograph things but having a graded game with him on it and autographed will increase your price margins by alot.
Haha what a cool idea!
It's a way to maximize your investment and either have a cool piece or have a very nice trade piece or make a cool return in the 100s on your profit
Great pickup! You make the best vids!
Thanks brother!
Epic respect cool Digestive system !! 😂😁😎 so true keep up with the grind 🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦅🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦍🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🦧🤑🤑🤑🤑🏦🏦🏦🏦🏦🏦🏦🏦🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄
Every time I try to remove a security tag on plastic it horribly warps the plastic and makes it loose on the case. I wouldn't remove it on one not as high value game and send it in as a tester to get graded.
One more cool video
Are you still able to list used EA published games on amazon? A few months ago EA and a lot of activision games went to NEW condition only when making the listing.
Yep I am
how do you get approved to sell these? nearly everything I scan gaming is "requires approval"
Got another video dedicated to that!
@@PhoenixResale looked though them, couldn't locate. Whats the title?
I’m in these same stores a few times a week.. if you’re local Itd be cool to run into each other and talk games sometime
I’m not, sorry!
@Dookie Chips I think the guy drives all over the place man not that he was being rude he might not be local lol
Whenever I get games that have the security tags or stickers, I always use lighter fluid to get them off. It eats away the adhesive without damaging any of the plastic case, or cardboard as it even works on retro boxes. Have done it for years and never had any negative results from it, and works like a charm.
O damn I def need to keep that in mind for the future
I wish they had stores like these in the UK!
try facebook market place and flea market style shops.
I'm in the US bit we still don't really have anything good... but that might just be because I live in Colorado where rent is a little to high for game stores to stay open... goodwill and other thrift stores are our saving grace lmao
They do
I’ve been recovering from COVID, finding your channel really has helped make the time go by. Great videos and content. Keep up the good work!
That’s so nice to hear, thanks Christopher!
Some grading services have sticker removal as a service, probably best way to get those security tags removed
I’m a big fan and I started watching your video a week ago and ngl they are so ENTERTAINING! and exciting seeing you dig for gold like those rare cd’s that has value, keep going we support you and I hope you go viral!!! ❤️🔥🔥
You were at my local area Mega Replay in Bloomington, IL
I’m jealous!
+1
I’ve been to that store and compared to some regular disc replays I’ve been to that mega replay isn’t very impressive.
I live in Normal. Love mega replay
@@LibertyFixxxer sounds like a town aliens would make to fit in
Stop tha hate y'all! If you haters would be successful, you wouldn't talk trash in a TH-cam comment section.😂😵
The copy of Lunar you got is the fan art edition which comes like that, so no outer box, ost disc, making of the game, cloth map or hardcover manual. The art on the cover matches the art on the outer box of the limited edition. The fan art edition is less common which probably has a greater value since its brand new.
Great tip! Hasn’t sold on eBay yet... so we’ll see!
So true
@@PhoenixResale quick question, i might need to downsize my collection and i was wondering how much does ebay & amazon take from your sales. I was thinking of selling on facebook, what do you think about that. Also, what method of shipping do you use?
That is such a Blockbuster move to put a sticker right on top of a super valuable disc.
they didnt know the plebs would pay high for it
Some awesome titles! We would also be terrified to grab those sealed games without the protectors! Awesome video Caleb!
I don’t understand why this guy gets so much hate. Seems straight up about what he’s doing. And is super nice when making offers.
Jealousy 💯
Such great stores! I wish we would have similar shops here in Europe hahaha! Love your videos
Can see you're Italian, the pain is the same even outside the EU in the UK we don't many of these either
@@androidoficeandfire9667 Yeah its a shame! If your lucky you find something on Ebay but the prices there are so high.
Don't remind me I just lost 2 bids for 2 vinyls in the last 10 seconds and they were both £60 lower than usual
Look for college hoops 2k8 for the ps3 and Xbox 360
Love those sealed games! Not sure if it's a good idea to pair Lunar with the outer box btw. The ones that come with the outer box have a different cover on the jewel case (the sword).
Good catch!
ouch $50 is a bit steap for panzer dragoon, considering it goes for $40 at bestbuy and is currently on sale for $30...Even though that store is an authorized reseller i feel like they should be able to sell at the original price
Haha yeah I saw that price drop and was like danggg
Final Fantasy 7 on ps1 its worth alot of money and so Legend Of The Dragoon just giving ideas for your ebay can you save me the saga frontier ill pay for it
Like/comment so he sees
It’s up for sale on my eBay store, you’re welcome to send me an offer!
Link in the description
@@PhoenixResale i dont have ebay account would a $150 gift card work just asking or a reloaded debit card with $150
the two words my boy loves to say
"AFTER FEES" XD ily dude
Haha yep gotta keep myself honest
@@PhoenixResale that's why you're cool bruh
$55 pokemon black. ''Thats a buy'' LOL No dude. Thats a rip..
Was that Godzilla Save The Earth for Xbox at 1:38 only $54.99? That's going for around $100 atm. Alot of demand for it because of the release of Godzilla Vs. Kong.
Ahhh good catch!
@@PhoenixResale Yea you should definitely go back when you can and get that from them 👍
I love how your girl says nothing the whole drive.... like what's this crap can it buy us a car? It can buy us a car and a house hmmm fair enough I'll shut up and drive 😆 🤣
This is where I live! Man I miss our Mega Replay it closed down during COVID it just seemed to be struggling.
Please Phoenix if you have the answer I need your help, I started FBA like you but everything needs approval, how can I sell like you one by one or
Is there an Indian restaurant to the left with Disney writing and a Binny's Liquor even more left? Outback in between? If so I know where this was lol
i have a question. You only make money if people buy the products you are listing. So if no one wants 3d games most of the time you wouldnt make any money.
Hey Caleb, nice pick ups! I would love to know your opinion on scalping. Not comparing your reselling hustle to that, I just no the line may be thin for you..so would you ever buy multiple pre-orders to then resell on eBay? Any experience in this? Metroid dread comes to mind. Catch you on the flip!
That rule of rose is like an 800$ game now. At 550, it’s still high for me but it hit a recent spike.
Haha 3 weeks ago it was still $550, crazy
That ps3 game is a SEALED Yakuza double pack 1 & 2 Game!
Wow that's some badass scores Caleb keep it up love seeing those high dollar uncommon games 😃👍
Haha me too!
I'm in Bloomington-Normal, so you were at some of my favorite haunts in this episode. Glad to see you got some great scores.
I knew he was in Champaign!
Onimusha 2 is such a great game. wish i could find one sealed like this one
I think there is a live action Gundam coming out, hold onto those dvds a little bit until at least the hype picks up
Caleb, when you get certain games graded do you put them in your collection or sell after grading?? Youre always finding some excellent titles. The profit margins you get are pretty nice. Knowing the resell skills you got are amazing. Myself, i buy and collect but, a buddy of mine tells me you want money sell some of your games.
Still waiting on my first big grading batch so I’ll let you know!
bro i check the prices mercari literally all prices u listed are wrong they are less than 50 percent of the prices u listed
Unfortunately the megareplay is now closed 😕
Ilik thegamevedo
I have somgamilik
Tosellyou!😉😉😂
I want that MvC 2 for the dream cast I just can't pay the eBay prices lol
Are disk replays and mega replays all over the country
sealed older gen stuff has been nuts lately. nice finds!
wish you wouldve touched or looked at rule of rose. how often can you say youve touched one?
Never stop making videos man, you make my day
So glad to hear it!
Bloomington IL
Is it fine to scan everything in front of the employees/store owners?
My local gamestop is closing and has a 60% sale but I'm nervous to scan in front of them.
Yeah go for it! Worst case you can always tell them you’re ch cling prices, which is true!
1 minecraft story mode is episode 1-6 and 1 is complete edition 1-8
Yeah Im still too young to marriage I would say I'm not a peasant
Dude we're you in Bloomington IL in this video?
You know I’m learning a lot not as a reseller but a way to get cheap games.
50$ for a ps3 harry potter game...
Hello it's me Jr I want to join you on new game sealed hunt
who loves the inro i love it
these videos are interesting but its kinda scummy
I hope you didn't leave the dog in the car the whole time!?
Loved the change of background music!
That dude at limited run was super cool! Great video!
Knocks on wood? Your car is made of wood???
imagine not recognizing the Yakuza series games.
Pokemon Black can be sold for $104?? I had White but I don't currently know where it is. It was like the 2nd pokemon game I've played. I wonder if I should go on the hunt for all the pokemon games. I probably won't be able to because it'd be expensive and there are so many since each generation has 2 versions but it would be cool. Maybe I'll create a series like your GameCube Gambet where I go around and buy stuff at yard sales or stuff like that and get a budget to get Pokemon games and part of the budget goes to finding the console the Pokemon games are on. I had a Gameboy but don't know where it is. I know where my DS and 3DS are but maybe I'd get a new one. Lol. But anyways, probably wouldn't be interesting because the chances of running into them are probably small whereas running into a GameCube game is more likely. Knowing me, I'd buy something intended for my budget and I'd wanna keep it. Lol.
I'm been trying to find sealed wwe games
Did you just leave the dog in the car ???
Love rewatching these old videos, crazy how far you've come Caleb!
Did you sell fight night? As it’s Already a very cheap game can’t see much profit in that keep up the grind tho g🤟🏽💯
So jealous of your stores still being open lol
Isn’t the “Something 1 and 2” a Japanese bundle of Yakuza 1/2?
Hater hanks mad cause its supply and demand
Marvel VS Capcom games are fun, Marvel VS Capcom 3 on the PS4 also sells for around 80 dollars.
Wonder if Caleb ever realized that the case on that copy of Marvel 2 wasn't original.
By the way, that Lunar will probably be worth a pretty penny if it grades well.
Bro I am so excited for you but for some reason the sound of Chipotle made me more excited than any of the games lol
I was gonna say why not get the rule of rose game for 54.99 then re watched and noticed it was like 549.99 lol my bad
some people dont realize that your actually selling some rare games and consoles that you cant find in stores anymore including mint condition complete ones and if i could i would buy that pokemon white you have listed on ebay or that monster hunter double cross xx japan exclusive console . definitely nice finds. im kinda wondering tho why you dont hunt for many switch games because the console sells faster than any other right now and i think its still a good time to resell. one game thats extremely hard to find is the 1st run cover of binding of isaac afterbirth+. i managed to get the very last copy my walmart had last year for $5 that was hiding behind all the other games in display case with a little dust on the cover. besides rare games i also collect imports and last imports i bought were atelier ryza 1 and 2. almost $200 for both on amazon, but both are great games and had to get them before price went higher. also have a sealed copy of dead or alive extreme 3 scarlet i bought before price jumped.
even tho some dislike you for reselling games for more money they dont understand that people need to make a living somehow. hell twitch isnt an actual job either, but if it pays the bills and keeps food and roof over head i say do what makes you happy and it looks like you enjoy doing what you do.
26:08 That is the Japanese only PS3 port of Yakuza 1 & 2 from PS2. Those games are now remastered as Yakuza Kiwami 1 & 2 on PS4 & XBox One/Series (only digital on XBox.)
That buzz lightyear game was soooooo much fun.
You should've played that before selling it
This man just got a subscriber
Oh man why'd you pass on Simpsons Hit and Run!? That's like $65 right there!
Panzer is $30 at Best Buy right now broski. Also a few other LRG titles are cheap there as well. The blaster masters were cheap. Also doom 64 is dropping at BB.
Caleb i doubt you’ll see this but the mega replay you went to is in the town i live in!! i never thought anyone would come visit here but it’s sadly closed now, love the vids man
ive been watching your videos for like two weeks now and just noticed you only have 95k subs like whatttt youre so underrated , even harry tornado has over 200k and while i love his videos i feel like your content is just as good!! nonetheless just keep up the good work i love the content!
love your vids phoenix i’ve been on a binge lately and you haven’t disappointed. All of your videos have really helped me expand my knowledge on video games and such so keep up the great work!!
Hm what does Bolo mean?
You can pay up for wata to do enhanced cleaning and will remove any stickers and not hurt it.
I sold my Silent Hill 2 for $120. Didn’t know I could of got 199 but I had the black label.
This sealed Lunar Silver Star Story didn't come in a box. This is a rare 2 disc Fan Art variant and have an normal soft manual inside.
Why can't we have these kind of shops in the UK, if anyone knows any in Wales let me know, that dog is adorable my family has one his name is Jet and he is fantastic
The lowest listing for that Rule of Rose on Amazon is about $1000 :0
I watched like 4 ads and the video aint even half done yet .-.
I place ads based on the length of the video, every 5 mins or so. This video has about 5 mid-roll ads because it’s a full half hour long. It’s a far better ad-to-content ratio than you’ll get anywhere else without paying. Cable, radio, Hulu, etc. all have 4X the ad time per minute. Thanks for watching though!
Was gonna say if you didn't take those two grails you were tripping. Lunar and saga frontier.
Do you still have that Lord of the Rings PS2? Been looking for that one. :)
Sent it off to WATA, sorry!
