    Glad to see you having fun again despite all downs in live thrown at you!
    If have started collecting again thanks to your videos. My wallet has been bleeding ever since. I would love to see the process or tactics for finding rare items on sendico. It might not be really exciting, but it's still interesting!
    Oh yeah, bookshop 📚

    Bookshop :) I went to ComicCon in 2019 and there was tonnes and tonnes of old Nintendo/Sega/Atari etc there! I wonder if maybe some of those sellers business didn’t make it through covid cause there seemed to be fewer in your video. Hoping to go again next year and hopefully it’s picked back up by then! Great vid

    @EsThirt33n 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice change of content, cool to see a comic con in London. You are correct that you will see different things there but there are usually few vendors who will have video game related items. Nice footage of the exploration as well! BOOK SHOP!

    I was at that same table too yesterday. I met the guy on last years MCM and bought a modded GB Advance SP with the super Famicon skin and a legit copy of Pokémon gold. He didn’t have any legit cartridges this time around which was disappointing but I enjoyed myself. Also saw that £399 GB Micro. Insane 😆
