£20 for the Gameboy is a bargain. And it comes with a nice storage box for free. Well worth it
Yeah mate it looks lovely on the shelf!
Great find with that Gameboy Mitch 😀
Thanks matey 👍🏻🕹
To behonest that repro box would of fooled me as i havent see one since the mid 90s. Either way great haul Mitch. Just had a look on ebay and I came across examples saying both video link cable and game link cable. I would bring it to an expert someone who specialise in collecting retro box gameboxs so they can authenticate it. If it real that woul be one hell of a find.
Oh really? I’ll have to take it in some of the retro shops near me and see what they say! Either way it’ll be staying on my shelf for now 👍🏻🕹
You would probably need to compare the Game Boy box side by side with another to know for sure that it's a repro - one of the giveaways would be if the card is thinner/lower quality. Nintendo used both "Game Link" and "Video Link" on console and game boxes - so you can rule that out as an indicator. Your insert looks identical to mine (which is genuine), and usually it's only the boxes that are reproduced.
It is also easier to find these boxes in good condition compared to other console boxes - I suspect part of that is how many of them were sold.
Cheers for the shout out. Yea that PS1 case will come up like new with some T-cut.
Check if it has the y folds at the top, sealed games should have a strip with that consoles logo but I’m not too sure if PS2 have it
Yeah I think you’re right!
Same GameBoy I had, when I was young back in 89,
same box art to
Yeah mate if it is a fake it’s a really good one!
Still £20 for just the Gameboy is a decent buy. Those finds are why we get up for at 6am, maybe next time :D
For sure mate! Here’s to the next finds 🤞🏻👍🏻🕹
Wow what a deal 🔥 great watch Mitch 🤙
Thanks mate!!
Good rummage - Salacious Rum approves...
Always have security bit screwdrivers with you when buying at a bootsale/shop. Only takes a minute to open up a cart to check if it's legit.
Yeah I’m waiting for them to turn up in the post lol thanks mate 👍🏻🕹
Keep the finds coming mate
Will do!
Crazy crazy people😂😂😂
For anyone to get offended by such an innocuous comment is beyond belief.
What Mitch is saying with this comment is..
A. CRAZY for partaking in such a collecting endeavour.
B. CRAZY PEOPLE that they would be willing to pay crazy prices for sealed games.
I myself collect both sealed & unsealed games.
Sealed games of my digital purchases & unsealed because their usually cheaper pre owed.
I while i too appreciate the "crazy" pursuit of some collectors to attain complete collections, im not prepared to pay silly amounts of money to get them.
And before anyone comes at me with the "Cheap stake" label, we all pay what we perceive the value to be.
Exactly mate that’s what I meant. Hopefully most people know what I meant!
look real to me that box would have fooled me too as someone really has gone to alot of trouble to make a fake
Yeah mate oh well it looks good on my shelf lol 👍🏻🕹
@@retro_rummage_ awesome
WOW!
Love the videos, im hooked and watching them all.
I managed to pick up the Arnold schwarzenegger 4 movie collection on blu ray, still unopened for 50p. Trades in for £5 or £8 voucher my best % profit so far. Love the tips to look for boxsets which others pass by.
Thank you and I appreciate you watching! That’s some nice trade in there i’ll keep an eye out for some of those box sets as I’ve yet to see them ?
Great video Mitch, what colour is the cardboard on the inside of the box? It’s it white.. if so that’s a dead give away to a repo. Or is it brown and grainy? Would be interested to know. 👍🏼
It’s grey on the inside mate. If you contact me on insta I’m happy to send over some pics 👍🏻🕹
What a deal for tge game boy
Still a cool display
You could easily get £10-£15 for the sealed PlayStation 2 game mate
Fingers crossed mate! 👍🏻🕹
Yes, she was indeed fascinated by the case purchase reasoning! 😅
😂😂 I’m a proper numpty sometimes 😅😅
Buy Meguires Ultimate Polish or PlastRX. Both really good at removing light / medium scratches without adding extra, and also things like nicotine from plastic.
I’ll keep an eye out for it! Thank you 👍🏻🕹
Box still looks nice
Yeah it’s lovely on my shelf lol
I wasn't suspicious until you offered £20 and he jumped at the offer! But the console itself is in very good condition so a decent win I think.
Yeah £20 for a gameboy on its own is pretty decent!
If it doesn’t have the PlayStation 2 branded tear strip it’s a reseal!
I’ll have to check! Maybe it’s a reseal then 🤦🏼♂️
@@retro_rummage_ I’ve seen it on eBay, it’s a reseal.
I didn't think (like some crappy DS games and GameCube games) that PS2 games all had an official seal.
Charged the microphone up this week then mate 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah but now I’ve broken it 😂😂 waiting for a new adaptor to turn up 🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
You can buy repo case I there identical mate you can't tell
Yeah mate I couldn’t tell that’s for sure! 👍🏻🕹
I have a feeling (all things considered) that the box is genuine....
Lol I can’t tell if you’re joking or not? 😅
Yes looks real to me
@@retro_rummage_ 🤣🤣 It's difficult to tell without physically seeing it (I could confirm then) but I thought it was genuine - if the Game Boy is genuine and the Poly Insert is genuine then to me it is most likely genuine. If the box was that battered and they replaced it, the Poly insert would be battered too, why would somebody spend out on an original Poly and then put a Repro outer box on it.... ?
@@retro_rummage_ Looking at it again I think it's genuine - also, you can't fake the 'old smell'.
Result mate..
I don't like it when you know something is worth money, and you still knock them down when you know you're going to double or triple your money anyway 😕
This guy always does
It only a few quid and the seller can say no it not like they are children he take advantage of, also when you buy anything unless it's in like new condition you aren't guaranteed for it to work so if you buy cheap and it's a broken it's only a quid.
How much would you pay for a broken gameboy ?
That’s what happens daily all over the world it’s called business you snooze you loose
@@retro_rummage_ You should have offered him £50 🐿
i am hoping o make a quick £500 profit by selling sealed gameboy and sealed pokemon yellow.
Nice mate!! I’d keep hold of them unless you are desperate for the cash as they’ll only increase in value 👍🏻🕹
@retro_rummage_ I'm the middle man between seller and buyer,I think the peak time has been, he is taking less now than 2 years ago.
How to alienate a large portion of your viewers, just call them crazy if you don't agree with them.
Are you talking about the sealed PS2 game? I meant crazy in a good way. If you tell me you’re going to climb Mount Everest I’d say you’re crazy. Doesn’t mean I don’t respect and appreciate the effort you put into doing it. I’d just never do it myself as it’s such a task to undertake.
What a silly comment
Are you being serious? If not, very funny 🤣
Aside from the comment not even being insulting is he not entitled to his opinion? I think Mitch is 'crazy' sometimes but I am sure if I explained to him why he wouldn't go and cry about it. World gone mad.
@@retro_rummage_ Well put, I do think you are crazy though Mitch for not striving to get the FULL, PAL, SEALED collection of EVERY Alvin and the Chipmunks game EVER MADE!!!
Challenge accepted??
