I always go by the rule, the price you see is the price you pay. if the store hasn't adjusted from the system that's their loss. Just teaches them to keep constant checks going.
I once bought a sixpack and the cashier scanned the barcode of the bottle, so I got 5 bottles for free. Didn’t realize it until later. I also once got a pair of shoes cheaper because the % off label was put on wrong. The system showed a higher price than the label, and I got it for the extra discount because it was their own mistake.
LOL! That's the springdale Arkansas Game Xchange! I've been to that one before and That game xchange is huge and has lots of boxed retro games! I need to go back to that one again, it's been a minute lol!
Man, those Ben 10 figures are sick!! I know your channel is more about late 80s early 90s and Ben 10 is 2000s - 2010s, but man Ben 10 is such an amazing show and I have never seen those figures before! (Actually I might have seen the Aggregor but I didn't know it was an official figure)
Oh man when you highlighted those TMNT dvd sets that I'm missing from my collection my heart sank and even more when you mentioned the pricing. That'll teach me to try and collect the region 1 versions
Mad respect for being honest and upfront when they made a mistake. You set a fine example for all of your viewers but even more so for your kid. Kudos to you, man.
When Switch came out, I wasn't immediately sold on it, so I bought Zelda: BotW on Wii U. I ended up beating the game on Wii U and nearly completing (didn't get all the Korok seeds). When I got a Switch I bought BotW again, but never played through it. So my full experience with the game was on Wii U.
@@dx2929 there's a huge difference between a couple hundred and four hundred buckaroos when I comes to keeping a store open and paying all the employees lol
I wanna go somewheres in the states and game hunt, so many games and stores. Where I live in Nova Scotia, the retro game stores don’t exist, pawn shops is where you need to go buy games, and they usually have bad stuff, or way over priced stuff, never find any deals, if anything they are asking way more than it’s worth a lot.
When you showed the semi truck it reminded me of a scene from wizard 1989. My friends older brother made sure that us kids born in 90 and above knew what that movie was. We were fortunate enough to grow up on nes snes sega and above but appreciate atari and such. I always stay alittle behind the times. I've made my way as a classic collector but never on your level but still respectable. I admire the hustle. -Retro Rick I hope one day we can chat about vintage stuff I could go on forever. NES IS MY LIFE!
On Riffos video I got the 69th comment. Here on got the 96th comment. What are the odds? I been here since a little over 10k subs. So awesome to see how large the channel has grown. I mean my guy owns his own store. 🤝
Retro always coming across the deals and shops that have the coolest stuff. Content always🔥🔥🔥. Always finding the great spots. I appreciate the journey as always. And 💯 honestly is the best policy.
When I see a store like that, with shelves lined with dozens of the same, quality items, all I think is that their prices must be garbage. Either that, or they give crazy high trade credit, and everyone is taking advantage of them.
A trashy looking Majoras Mask is behind the counter at my local Game X-change for $129.99 the good-looking version is $179.99. I see all these videos with great prices at Good Will and game stores and think yeah right it has to be staged.
I thought the pricing error was gonna be those CIB NES games. $20 ish for 2 boxed NES?!?! Yes & Please! Hell, the Goodwill I get all my games from wouldn't have had them *that* cheap!
@Marko Polo That makes sense. I just can't stand not having the cases for games that didn't come in disposable packaging due to me being a perfectionist collector lol
@Marko Polo Fair enough, I just started taking collecting seriously within the past couple years due to me already having a decent amount of retro games.
If it's a place like Walmart and they mess up the price in my favor I'm not going to say anything, but a small video game store or any small business I'll definitely be honest.
Rick's better than me. Years ago I got the Hitman Absolution collector's edition for $25 from a GameStop because they forgot to take off the Black Friday pricing. Manager tried to give me the whole "oh we forgot to take the tag off" and I just gave him the blank stare.
I have tons of thise Gundams from the 90’s-2005! The Japan exclusive cartoon kid versions too! father can build a stage 3+ kit in large or any scale,while his son can build a snap version he can play with at the same time! They have no nostalgic value to me! They range from $15-$40-$100+ each. You can take them all for $15 each! Over or around 20 of them. With beanies stay away from birds and cats. Look for the lamb “Lambchop”
11:02 That guy may have been sliding you an inside deal you didn't pick up on. Not his store though, just an employee I assume. That's very odd. I think he was doing something shady yoyu didnt pick up on. Wonder if he still works her. LOLOLOL. Seems like a nice guy though. :)
After watching the rest.. now I wonder and second guess my comment eralier. LOL. Maybe you shoulda taken it at 1 somethin. offered a tip. prob what dude thought hed get. Big company error, not a small town store error. Mmmmm. #conflicted. #LOL
Good karma is essential to life. I'm not huge on playing video games anymore, so it having a cover depends on the game, and it's flip potential if I'm going to buy it without the box art.
Dude, I can’t find Tetris 2 for $6.99 loose in my area 😆 good score. Also, disc based games with no cover art are a no-go for me. Bad enough if they’re missing the manual
@@CalvinTennessee the most recent sold was $250. And there's definitely tons of people who would snap it up at that price as a collectors piece. Especially as it was from the McDonald's N64 kiosks. Perfect for the store, too.
Man, i could go on and on with the items i sold and regret based on today's prices. Ranging from CIB games like Chrono Trigger, FF 2 & 3, Working Design SCD games. Also CIB consoles from NES to GC.
This game store looks awesome almost as awesome as the one in my home town Called game point 😂 I heard it’s own by some big time retro TH-camr but I’m not sure who it is lol
I would love to be able to go through a store like that in my area. So for me it depends on the game getting it without cover art. If I like playing the game I don't mind because I'm having fun otherwise I need to get the game for the right price and at the same some where online get a case and manual for a good so I know I'm spending too much. If I get South Park disk only for 8 but a CIB goes for like 10 or 11 I might as well get a CIB.
Nice pick ups Rick. I am picky on getting CIB for xbox and wii games but the cartridge games, i am not so picky since they are so old that it would be difficult to find CIB. May i ask please, the n64 giveaway how it be be done? Will you do the giveway to your subscribers via youtube and also are all viewers included or is it exclusive to USA residents?
Not a great sign when game exchange has 60 copies of games on n64 or multiple copies of games on a console like Saturn that isn’t as common. Let alone multiple copies of games.
Funny how it seems so many game shops make mistakes like this. Yet the sole game shop in my area offers a dollar for controllers and 50 cents for most games even ones that wind up in there case. Also the only mistakes they ever make is charging an extra ten dollars lol.
Maybe try a model kit if you have the time for it, they are fun and relaxing, especially if you get one from something you like if you don't like gundam. I got one for a game I like and it's my favorite display piece because I made it myself!
My problem with model kits is, you still need to paint them. Without it they don’t look that good. If you have an airbrush set you can go all out to make a really cool model.
I always go by the rule, the price you see is the price you pay. if the store hasn't adjusted from the system that's their loss. Just teaches them to keep constant checks going.
You do know he has a store too right so the guilt got him 🤣😂
Definitely

If Rick had a new employee and Little Sampson had a 10 dollar sticker, bet your ass that's what I'm paying
Facts mine actually says if they label it it's our bad and we'll honor it .
LOL! That's the springdale Arkansas Game Xchange! I've been to that one before and That game xchange is huge and has lots of boxed retro games! I need to go back to that one again, it's been a minute lol!
What's nuts is Rick now legit has the nicest game store from a visual aspect in any video he's ever posted

good man, im always honest like that...i'd rather someone keep their job instead of me getting over for a few bucks
Oh man when you highlighted those TMNT dvd sets that I'm missing from my collection my heart sank and even more when you mentioned the pricing. That'll teach me to try and collect the region 1 versions
As an Arkansan, I’m pretty sure I know where you are. A solid store. I went there all the time as a kid so I’m glad they’re still open.
Mad respect for being honest and upfront when they made a mistake. You set a fine example for all of your viewers but even more so for your kid. Kudos to you, man.

complete with clean cover art/album art for me is a must

We definitely need more honesty.
@@ihavenoclue9756 💯 too many people always trying to get over
@@F.C.Sneakerfactory karma's real folks shouldn't test or face it. Not the bad kinda karma anyways lol
I buy coverless games all the time. My focus in collecting is playing the game not having the box.
To each their own. I love the artwork.
@@jonb2756 oh for sure. I totally get wanting the box.

I believe in business Karma. That’s awesome that you guys were honest 🙌🏾👏🏾
Awesome video 😁 I found some good games today also
Why do we not have game exchange down here in south Texas. That store has lots of inventory and good deals.
Great video and finds as usual!!
Honesty is the best policy. That’s why your store will prosper my fellow good men 💯
The prices are real decent, looks like a real cool store, my local game trader in canada doesn't have stock like this, thats a shit ton on goldeneyes
Pretty much ALL of them haha
That Pikachu statue is an authentic Nintendo statue there was another that was star fox but I don't know where that one is.
Love the video. Great as always, streets of rage CIB I need it in my life 👍👊
There are many great classics you got that's great. Cool video. ^_^
I live in Northern California Game Exchange I've never heard of it ,I'm not even sure if we have a Game Exchange store 🤔

God bless you for your honesty!
Love the videos brosky!!
I'm glad people still buy the old stuff. I just wish some of my old favorites were made modern.
Nothing about this was okay.
Good job my friend, I wish you success👍
I could never buy a game without the coverart, even if I could just print it, there's nothing better than having the original.
I dont like loose disks but loose cartridges are ok.
I've resorted to printing my own at times, I just don't care anymore.
@Marko Polo That makes sense. I just can't stand not having the cases for games that didn't come in disposable packaging due to me being a perfectionist collector lol
@Marko Polo well said. but one up side to having the case is they serve as a way to protect said games. *yes I know disc binders exist xD
@Marko Polo Fair enough, I just started taking collecting seriously within the past couple years due to me already having a decent amount of retro games.
If it's a place like Walmart and they mess up the price in my favor I'm not going to say anything, but a small video game store or any small business I'll definitely be honest.
hahaha the title though ahaha😂
10:25 Your're too honest maybe some may say. The good honest people.. the guilt would eat us alive though. Good on you :)

All those jewel long boxes would be great for condition upgrade. All my cases are cracked.
My game has got to have the cover art or a discount of at least 30%.

Dude in ny I couldn't even get a rampart for 15 at a goodwill even without cib
I try not to buy games without the cover art and manual, but if I know its an in demand game and priced right I'll buy it and look for the rest after.
Great upload 👍👍👍
I wanna check out your game store. Can I bring all my sons there 😂
You should rename "I almost stole this store for this game" all n' all awesome channel dood. do what what you do...
Another video from Retro Rick get those games that store has a great inventory selection
i don't like anything without cover art unless im buying purely to play or have the art myself ocd won't allow most of the time
My wife love your shirt salutes from Costa Rica
That variant is from Indonesia? Look for the controller mis print worth double
Love that Robocop music!
They should have given you some free stuff for being so honest I didn't even hear them say thank you which really sucks if they did not
11:02 That guy may have been sliding you an inside deal you didn't pick up on. Not his store though, just an employee I assume. That's very odd. I think he was doing something shady yoyu didnt pick up on. Wonder if he still works her. LOLOLOL. Seems like a nice guy though. :)

That not for resale n64 game!! Very cool!
Duuuuuude. P.a doesn't have any of these stores.
It's always good to be honest because that stuff always comes back and bites you in the behind one way or another.
Good karma is essential to life. I'm not huge on playing video games anymore, so it having a cover depends on the game, and it's flip potential if I'm going to buy it without the box art.
12:15 great robocop 3
Streets of rage 2 !! What a memories !!
Plot twist: Rick gets into Gunpla and this becomes a Gunpla channel LOL
When are we getting more $10 Game Collection Videos?! It's been months.
Odd thought, but can you retail arbitrage the whole store. Like go in buy some stuff, wait for it to sell. Then rinse and repeat.
Dude, I can’t find Tetris 2 for $6.99 loose in my area 😆 good score.
Also, disc based games with no cover art are a no-go for me. Bad enough if they’re missing the manual
I'm looking for galaga loose but only because I've got the case and manual lol. It's only a few bucks though.
Gundams are actually pretty sick
So that’s where all the Golden eyes went!
nothing like a little retro peer pressure
That was a big whiff on Rogue Squadron. $120 for a $250 cart is a steal
Just because someone wants 250.00 for it, doesn't mean that's what its worth. it will never, ever fetch 250. He didn't even buy it for 120.
Fr, major L sleeping on that

It’s not worth worrying about. You did what you had to do.
That place has a crazy stock.
I can't bring myself to put disc only games in the collection.
that star wars Star Wars Rogue Squadron N64 Nintendo 64 sells on ebay for me £14.99 bruh these prices rip off
Yeah that $115 total sounded WAY too low for all of that! That was the right thing to do! As they say "honesty is the best policy".
So Game Exchange is turning into a pawn shop? Lol
Is it safe to say that, with your recent Game Point acquisition, the $10 Game Collection will be on hold?
If that was Billy he would of ran with it lol
I've bought games without cover art twice and regretted it both times.
Anybody know which location this is?
This game store looks awesome almost as awesome as the one in my home town
Called game point 😂 I heard it’s own by some big time retro TH-camr but I’m not sure who it is lol
Do you also buy games from your own store ? Think I would find it hard to spend money at places that sell the same thing I do
I'm really surprised he didn't know what Gundam models are. Just seems weird that he wouldn't know.
that Retro tag sound sounds like "METRO" and I was like yea he does look hella gay

Yes I will buy a game without the cover art but only if it’s one I’m really wanting to play
Phoenix Resale would’ve tried getting a bigger discount than paying the $115…
Because you were honest it will come back to you. Great video!
I can totally buy a game without the cover art. Thats what the cover project is for
Good pick ups!
Any Rune Factory games? =3
