Appreciate the shout out mate ofcourse I’m still here watching 👍🏻 just do what ever you enjoy as long as the game collection grows that’s all that matter! P.S throw that Arsenal shirt in the bin now it’ll never be worth anything 😂
i always where a cap. When i go to work they are like you never where a cap. I don't where the same clothes and a cap at work. Does that make sense? Keep up the good video's :)
Yes yes Mitch! Come on man you know that shirts gonna be a legendary shirt. Hope you’re still out there getting it mate. How is the collection coming along. We miss you!!! Thanks for watching mate and the inspiration as a I said 👊🏻 message me on Instagram if you still got that Sam Andrea’s guide I still want it 👊🏻
Great vid, you collect the way you want to mate its all about what you enjoy, if your enjoying it portrays to us viewers. Great to hear Mitch getting a mention, likewise he was one of first i followed on you tube. Hope he is enjoying collecting, we miss him but you just got to whats best for yourself, do what you enjoy! Stu
Great vlog mate, some good pickup’s for your CeX voucher 👍🏼 I know what you mean about car boot sales, if your not there at the crack of dawn you miss out. I can’t be arsed with that I like my sleep to much😂 anyway keep your chin up mate keep the content coming 😊👍🏼
Thank you my bearded brother. I seem to be winning because I look for other stuff. Finding video games is easy this just means I have to work a bit harder which is fine
Anszing boxset haul mate! Very jelly! Done really well considering u get to bootsales a bit later from when they open.. 😊haha that headset on your phone situation sounds like amateur hour😂 solid snake wouldn't be proud of your sneakiness 😅 but dont be down. You're brave enough making a channel. Im not confidrnt enough to vlog my journey. Your 'SMASHing' it ;)
Ha ha yeah, I’m just honest mate. Thing with TH-cam is most people only show you the hood stuff. They don’t show you the reality. I try and portray exactly what has occurred whether it’s good or bad. I know I make mistakes and hopefully by highlighting them to others people won’t make the same as me. I’d much rather watch someone who was honest and told me exactly how it is than think it’s all perfect because that is rarely the case. Usually in these situation when I’m caught I just say it’s to check I’m not over paying for something and that I’d like to know I’ve walked away with a good deal. Something cheeky like that anyway. I don’t know these people and probably will never see them ever again so not that bothered. It’s there choice if they want to sell just as it is mine if I want to buy. I’m sure I’ll get my mojo back soon. You’re only as good as your last video and that. lol Have a great week buddy 👊🏻
Thanks man! That road trip was hard work and a long day and I think I just rushed the video to be honest because I was literally in and out the stores so quick
Keep your head up fella, really enjoy your videos and wish you every success going forward. Easier said than done I know but try not to be so tough on yourself, you're doing a great job pal 👍 All the best
I’ll always be my biggest critic. I know I can do better but capturing the footage is the hard part. I know I could plan better but I try and just be natural. Thanks mate. Appreciate the support
Cheers mate. I actually think getting th stuff resellers miss as more satisfying to me. Anyone can turn up early no competition and clean up but it takes a pro to get stuff in the main when there’s 100s of buyers.
Keep on bringing us content mate. I really enjoy all the videos you do. Like you I don’t like the pushing and shoving at 6.30 am to pull things out of peoples boots. I’d rather mooch about around 9ish. Gets me and the family out of bed on a Sunday morning and into the fresh air. That’s the bit I enjoy. Most of the time I get nothing. But I’m not bothered. I’d rather watch your content than anything on terrestrial tv!
Too much drama early doors at the boot sale I’ve seen it. It’s not for me. I’d rather use my other skills to obtain decent returns. Plus I usually use like £100 a month at the boot sales and make like £400 back so I always look for a £1 spend for a £3 return and stack it up, if I get more the better but I’m happy with how I go about my business. I’d hate for it to be easy
Thanks mate. That’s the aim. I know there’s channels who do massive huge hauls but they are making lots of money off TH-cam. I don’t make anything so this is my only way to support my hobby without sacrificing stuff for my young family. I have 3 children to support but I’d probably still do it this way.
This video is one iv enjoyed most since some of your early one. Just felt we got to see the more real you a bit more again. Just seemed a lot more natural rather than forcing it a little more. Still brilliant content 👍
I’d just been to the gym so had a bit of a high but I’m going back to old school and gonna try something but different this weekend. I’m starting a new challenge
Just not in a great headspace mate. Lot of paranoia, anxiety at the moment and just lost a lot of confidence. You’re only as good as your last video right! I’m becoming the king of box sets lol but what ever gets the voucher is what I’m interested in. Unsure what I wanna get now though. I seem to have everything I want so it might be some love for my Nintendo switch. Luigi mansion 2 is on my list of games
@@retrosmashtv hope you get in a better space soon bud. And TBH disagree, you are as good as you feel, dont need views or subs etc to justify doing what you enjoy mate. You got collectors block mate 😅 what to get next... may I suggest just get 1 game you want to play, finish that and go again 👍
Some good purchases there mate, I really must start looking more at dvd box sets and finding out which sell though I also picked up Bottom 1-3 recently as well.
Some have good value and just as much as something you might find like Wii sports for example that people usually sell at boot sales. Obviously look for higher profit stuff but I’m just getting my hands on what ever I can at the moment.
Awesome finds bud and as you said it doesn't matter what you pick up the end goal is still the same. Your smashing it bud take as much time as you need and just stay true to what you do that's why we watch 💪🤘
Thanks mate. Appreciate your support as usual. As long as I get what I want at the end of it that’s all that matters. Got some switch games I want to get including Luigi mansion 2
Great pick ups mate. I personally hate it when people say CEX is a bad option. I personally think they're not perfect, however they're a nessicary evil in my opinion. As I personally have a massive collection because of them. I wouldn't have half of what I have without them.
I’d not have the collection I have without it. I love it. I do use CEX for the price guide as it’s the max I’ll pay. I’ve always got vouchers so I have no need to overpay unless something out of stock. So everything I buy non CEX will always be cheaper. Hope you’re doing well mate. Have a great week 👊🏻
@@retrosmashtv I doing good dude. I've gotten some banging things recently for eBay and trade ins. Also a big heads up! Get the Wolverine game for PS3 very soon! Before the movie! That price is gonna bump up plus it's the last time, Hugh Jackman will ever play Wolverine. It's a perfect storm.
You know what mate, I didn’t even realise. So much on my mind at the moment and didn’t even notice. But cheers for watching mate 👊🏻 have an awesome week
Another great video!! I attended another car boot this past weekend and it was amazing. 4 GameCube games 50p each, Xbox 360 games 50p each (till he said take them all for £2 there were 8). Wii with controller £5. Kept some games but flipped some at cex and got a £34 voucher!!! Kept the Wii as it's black . Oh and destroy all humans on the OG Xbox for £1. Kept as I love that one
Smashed it mate! Great when you get a haul like that. I’m just finding I’m always done by the sellers who pitch up, go on the walk about buy all the games and try sell them at higher prices. I’m not about that I’ll get mine but other ways. I love the hunt and if I have to work harder so be it. Makes the reward better imo.
Honestly I have a fantastic job, I have a great salary but making £4.50 off a car boot purchase gives me the highest of highs and unless you’re in this game you cannot explain it. But even though what I’m doing is a bit morally wrong I don’t take it to the extreme I’ve seen some right lunatics at these car boots and I can never become like that so hopefully I didn’t come across as being ungrateful it was more to show people that you don’t need to be an early bird to catch the worm. The whole point of what I do is buy and move it as quick as possible. Not hold onto it. I don’t want my house looking like a charity shop store room. Thanks for watching my guy 👊🏻
Aww man don't be down on the last vid, it may just be there aren't as many Tony Hawks fans around as there used to be. You make good content and have good personality. Keep it going bro
Cheers mate, the views weren’t what I was expecting but I also think I could have made a better video. I dunno what’s wrong with me just lost all confidence. I’m sure I’ll get it back , thanks for the kind word 👊🏻 Have a great week Nick 😉
Stuff the haters mate, I don’t go to carboots as I’m to lazy and would get annoyed if I went and found nothing, but hats off to you great TH-camr enjoy seeing what you pick up! 👍🏻
Thanks mate, really appreciate your support. I used to get annoyed but now it’s a way of just getting out for a bit of excercise and I’ll always buy something because I’m not waking up early for nothing lol
@@retrosmashtv yea best thing you can do mate if you feeling a bit down is get to the gym honestly once you been going for 2-3 months 3-4 times a week you soon perk up a bit when you start noticing those gains! , gym always helps me out when I ain’t feeling great! Look after yourself 👌🏻
It matters not, how you get your stuff, as long as you're making some return, slow and steady buddy. Forza games are not backward compatible on xbox series 1, so they are stuck on their respective OG system. Decent racing games too. I would hang on to it, give it a play, you'll be pleasantly suprised.
I’ve had Forza 4 before when I had my original 360 back in the day and loved designing cars. May keep hold of it. And yeah what ever keeps the collection going I’ll grab. Doesn’t have to be video games
I can’t really do anything about this at the moment as it’s all recorded, edited on my own iPhone which now has a broken mic and speaker but I do try my best. Sorry for the poor experience. I’ll be upgrading soon.
Make content that you enjoy making; So regardless of the result, you'll be happy how many or how little views it gets. A smaller, more curated audience can be better than having thousands of subs who don't watch all your vids or rarely interact with you (like, comment, etc.)
Seriously?!?! As soon as I saw them I had to have them and when they said £2 I just had to have them no bartering. Straight in the bag. No that’s a lie I carried them proud around the bootsale hoping to show someone lol. I know I’m sad like that. I’m sure I scored an outside of the right boot with these playing right back as a 13 year old with a xxl shirt lol Thanks for watching mate 👊🏻
Ha ha, I’ve been all over the show lately I totally forgot about it. Didn’t even realise until someone else said it. Gonna be getting some new ones soon. But I do love that red cap Thanks for watching Gareth 👊🏻

Always will be mate. I find holes in everything I do whilst I strive for perfection.

Great vid mate as always, im the same with car boots, i get up and go to them when im ready, quite happy to grab the stuff the resellers have missed!
