hi big fan love the vids 👍
There are thousands upon thousands of Atari games from the 80s still unopened and sealed. The Video Game Crash happened for a reason.
SEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAALED
When you took your two copies of Nintendo World championship edition the gray and gold cart to pawn Stars did you really have the intention of selling it or did you just want to get on the show? because Pat I know you know enough that taking them to a pawn shop they're going to lowball the heck out of you and you know enough and you know enough people in the community that you could get reasonable rates for your two World championship editions if you wanted to sell them.
Facts
Hilarious and telling that they brought in slimey Denis on this one. Is Pawn Stars getting points on Heritage-WATA auctions?
@@tomwaters5090 of course he didn't have any intention on selling them..he did it to get on a TV show. which at the time was just one of the biggest cable tv shows on air
Corey: Mind if I take a closer look?
Seller: Go Ahead
Corey: *rips the Frogger packaging open*
Lol
*Chumlee eats packaging*
As soon as the seller mentioned Atari Raiders of the Lost Ark, it instantly reminded me of James Rolfe The Angry Video Game Nerd.
Me too
Same, bro.
Who
hearing the name of any old game brings me there lol
I had James sign my Indiana Jones Atari cart
Corey went from "I know nothing about video game valuations" to "There's a bubble in video games so I'm not touching these"
what's crazy is that their expert literally helped make that bubble by fraudulently pumping it lmao
he was 100% correct. There have been exact same game sales that went for a milliion that then went for 100k.
Plenty of exact games that went for 250k then went for 25k..
It was a bubble created by the guy evaluating games when he created WATA. He created a bubble and it has now popped
Gamestop would have appraised these games at $3 dollars cash or $3.42 store credit!
Cash all day!
And they wouldn't be far off.
Game stop dont deal in antiques they probably wouldn't buy them at all.
And sold it the next day for 500
Thats a stolen comment dude shame on you !
Seller wants auction house price, Pawn Stars offer crack house price.

Lol

Incineration! Burn!!!!!!!!!! Everett01 you are the insult master!- Aquateen Hunger Force 2005!!!!!
George Costanza worked his whole life on the skills necessary to get his Frogger across the street, but alas, a box truck driver squashed his dreams.
That's a hilarious episode 😂
"Where are the holes?"
@@ifwecouldvote What holes?
@@davidkastin4240 the holes, the holes! Where the electricity comes out of.
Serenity Nowwwwww!
You know I like how Corey does his job sometimes , he know there will be hustling and useless negotiations so he just passes on the item depending on the appraisal
You could tell that that guy would not sell it that cheap, but I bet if it was someone that inherited them or didn't know that much about them, he woulda offered $200. Or if he felt really uncomfortable he woulda fished $100 out there and gone to 150.
Whatever the script says...
Cory: "I didn't play video games growing up, my dad was too cheap"
The seller: "yeah I know I've been watching your show"
Kind of contradicts another episode where someone brought in a Commadore 64 and Rick said he bought one when it first came out. That was a computer and video game machine. Maybe he never let Corey touch it.
I use to work in a store, and sometimes products would arrive with shrink wrap broken during shipping. So we had to reseal them. It was literally just a table with a roll of wrap and a hair dryer that we used, and it takes only a few seconds to do, and looks identical to the normal factory wrap. There is way too much scam potential with "unopened" products to ever take that serious.
" I don't know if they need an expert to come in , it's really based on what someone is willing to pay for it"
The most illogical reasoning i have heard on this show.
I think he thought they can't be faked which tells me he knows nothing about China
Everytime I sell at a pawn they google cheapest price being sold and offer me half. Nobody buys like this TV show since internet came out.
@@shac9131 the store in the show does similar things. Look up Ebay sold listings, but they typically show unique items to actually have a "show" worth watching. A lot of the items would not have many, if any, comps available online, and that is where the experts can help out.
@@JoeBoone82
No man. I've had jewelry sellers offered $500 a piece for but pawn shops only offered $20 in silver weight and made by FAMOUS creators in books everything
there was nothing false in that statement. The price of anything is determined by who is willing to pay for it. Just because I list an item at $1000 doesn't mean it's worth that much. If that same item sold for $600, than they have something to compare it by. No one needs an expert to come in on something like this. They can easily check the sold prices on ebay or their own internal database. Though, at the end of the day, this is just a tv show looking to bring in viewers.
Corey: Do you mind if I take a look at them?
Seller: Absolutely
Corey: *picks it up anyway*
thats how they do it
Kind of how it works I don’t even know why you comment this
@@DESIADGIO Brush up on your English and you’ll understand
@@Vik-toryyy nice alt account
Uh he asked permission, received it and picked it up. Where’s the problem?
As soon as the expert gave a low appraisal amount, I couldn't finish watching the fate of the seller
That's the smartest thing iv heard on this show.
Not only is there a videogame bubble, it's been completely fabricated by their 'expert' at wata games
I was waiting to see if anyone else would mention this, their "expert" is partnered with a total fraudster who was responsible for the collectable coin bubble years ago.
There's not a video game bubble. It's just that Atari isn't as popular for retro games. NES and SNES is still popular to this day.
I expected Chumlee to do a U turn when he responded "Yea we know an expert, let me go call him".
lol me too
"Can I borrow your phone Corey?"
Calls himself
Lol genius. Missed opportunity
Have to go with Corey on this one. Dude wasnt going to sell them anyway. If it was graded it would be different. Nice games though. Was fun to watch. Great video
Just checked on eBay, Boxed frogger selling for around $200
No, that is what the seller wants. He may not get it.
One CiB sold for $10
Lol thats a 20 dollar game on eBay. Not sealed but a sealed game doesn’t take a 20 title to 200. You just looked around until you found the first fool you could find.
@@capcomfan82 Not to mention it's easy to reseal a package if you have the right tools.
@@brucef310 and age the plastic too?
Raiders of the Lost Ark is worth $90 in the box max, a sealed Frogger is worth $200 at max, maybe $400 graded.
How do you go from "$200 at max" to "maybe $400"
@@masterticcu He said maybe 400 Graded 200 Max would be if it weren't graded.
@@masterticcu graded really increases the value
Cause its wata... wata over prices. Just listen to pat the nes punk and about wata and auction houses.
They aren't worth anything. But keep pretending
“I don’t know why they’d call in an expert. They’re worth what someone is willing to pay”.
Expert comes in to tell them what someone is willing to pay.
He was already worried his price was way too high.
Wata isn't an expert company anyways
Mr. Brown and I got along famously
Its old
Lame joke that has been said on every video. Come up with new material sucka
Love you guys keep up the great work
Hi Kevin! Thank you so much for watching Pawn Stars on CZcams! Subscribe now to see
more of Rick, Chumlee, Corey, and the whole crew!
Used to play alot when I was kid
"I don't know why they need an expert, it's based on what someone's willing to pay for it" Ya, and what they're willing to pay is based on the experts opinion.....
5 people buy the exact same item from the exact same dealer. Regardless if the prices are different or not, you would instantly know the price of what it's going for in that particular area, even perhaps in a specific market.
It looks like they brought in a gamestop employee as thier expert
Not surprised. Rick thinks Trump is a wise man of integrity & honor, & we KNOW that's a fuc*in' lie! He's a lunatic, coke-head, one-term LOSER!!!
@@dme1016 your right
The expert was right you do realize that
@@dme1016 Why don't you go back to drooling infront of CNN some more and watch your dementia president forget what his own name is.
Worse, he's from WATA.
If this guy brought a sealed frogger to Sean at Gamers Paradise a few miles away and wanted $1200 he would have laughed in his face and pointed him to the stack of sealed froggers he couldn't get rid of if he put a free sign on it.
Really
He's only got about $200 retail worth of games here and that's only because they're sealed. The Indiana Jones was especially obscene because you get it sealed for well under $50 all day long. He might as well have asked $1000 for Mario/Duck Hunt.
It had to be a joke on the part of the producers they signed off on giving this yahoo air time in the first place.
@@cryptidproductions3160 This Indiana Jones game was never sealed as per what the expert said.
The Raiders of the Lost Ark at this condition would sell on ebay for 85-100$ MAX (sold item) The other one about 250-300$ MAX. But you can find some for 200$ sometimes also. So there is no big deal on those games. I got an Atari 2600 Double Dragon still sealed and I think it worth more than those 2 games.
if not double both of them tbh.
Love seeing uploads keep it up pls😎

Greetings. It is with great pleasure that I learned a lot from the information that is presented in all the videos that I follow closely and with unparalleled enthusiasm. I wish you success and progress in your work.
“Well mah man, you heard my guy. $5 and at that price I’m taking all the risk.”
Wait, wha
I want an episode where someone brings in something unopened super rare and the pawn stars ask "you mind if I take a look at them?" "Sure go ahead" and rick, corey or chum open the package instantly removing 90% of the value lmao that woukd be halarious
Ditto..
If he had Texas Chainsaw Massacre for Atari still sealed, that would be a different story all together.
Is that really rare? Any idea of value? I've just started collecting games, gaming literature and paraphernalia. Very early days and interested to learn more...
@@andrewlaing8122 There’s one on eBay right now and someone’s asking just under $1500.00 (Canadian) and that’s just for the loose cartridge.
@@andrewlaing8122 it was banned in the US so yeah it's very rare lol
@@Sam-The-PC-Gamer u aware the world has aporx 195 countries in the world, us isnt / wasnt the only developed country in the world in those days LOL
@@victorlwd i was talking about the US version of the game
I played a bar model Pong in 1972 at a heavy cover charge bar in Toronto. That was playing with Kim Mitchell,
the lead singer and guitarist for Max Webster. Doug Reilly had the house band, his recording act, Dr. Music,
having chart-topping singles. A fan of a band I was in invited me to a house where she was a baby-sitter,
because they had the first Atari video game around. It had five games, catching bombs in a bucket the best.
First printed Frogger sells for 5-8k now so they took an L..
really? wow
Not the same one this dude had.
I still have my 2600 and 7800 Atari game systems. I have 78 games and have the box and instructions for every game.
In 20 years around an anniversary, sell them.
If you disagree, go sell it at a high end auction house by yourself.
Fr
It's a cutthroat world out there and man just tried to make a few bucks. You don't know what his situation is and tomorrow it might be you. I don't blame him for trying.
@@Darkest_Soul_187 same
The problem is not every auction is a good day, what happen if someone bid less than what you expect or worst no bidders at all, There are people in auction that don’t have interest in video games so you can’t expect to win a fortune in every auction houses....
My dad bought me Atari when I was in primary school
Because He does not love you
Thanks for sharing
When?
I got a Nintendo
very cool
I bought a sealed copy of raiders and frogger last week from my local game shop for 5$ total. I have 100% lost faith in pawn stars.
2:36 “I don’t know if they need an expert coming in” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 hmm yeah...
Mr. Brown and Frogger raided lost arks famously.
And he was right, wata under investigation for creating a video game bubble with that pony tail guy being the top dog into it.
1:37 proceeds to open the game lol
He says he feels like they are in a video game bubble while his "expert" is the guy responsible for it
They're only worth as much as people are willing to pay for them
Later: I disagree on how much people are willing to pay for them.
😕
THIS
I have searched up the frogger atari game and you can buy it out for £20 which is $30
Corey was born in 83 he missed the Atari explosion.. so he was unable to appreciate it.. but for asking price for these games was pretty ridiculous
Dude looks like he was born in 73
Corey gots the most awkward handshake not sure if I would trust him with s high five
It’s a dominance handshake.
It's a dumb handshake
I'd say the expert was spot on or maybe he checked Ebay too (lol) but I just looked there and saw two sealed Froggers , 1 sold for $300 , the other $250
As someone who played and still own those games, neither one is worth one red cent. Frogger had a lot of glitches in it and the layout of Raiders was so bad you had no idea how to get through the temple.
They aren’t buying it to open them up and play lol
I just check on ebay and the frogger _sold_ for less than $20.00 and indiana jones a bit more.
Wow these are really cool
I used to have a Frogger game that you would plug into the TV.
Cool
Me too
For some reason I really was expecting a higher appraisal especially for the sealed frogger like close to what the seller was asking. But Atari and these games were about 10 years before my time and I’m not a expert.
Expert was pretty fair. I would have figured just a bit less, but not too far off. We have a local retro gaming shop here and that is what I would expect them to charge.
2:47 (Metal Gear Alert Sound) oh, el TunerViejuner!
Greetings from all my heart to all the experts in all the specialties that you host. I wish them health, safety, success and progress in their work. With great thanks and respect.
The console I miss most from my childhood was the original Nintendo and the N64. I remember my dad bringing home an NES and actually playing Mario on it. Also, combined Mario and duck hunt forever!
Fun fact the dude that invented atari invented Chuck E cheese
Really?
I thought it was Show Biz Pizza
I had both of these. It's good to know they wouldn't have made me rich had I held on to them.
If you listen closely you can hear Pat The NES Punk getting ready to talk about this on his podcast
Madddd respect, only true gamers know what’s up 😴🔥
It’s Fle Market Madnessssss
-with me Frank 😃
Atari Raiders, I so remember that game. It was the game that made me an RPG/adventure game fan.
Had both of those when I was a kid!
They stopped making the 2600 in the 90's.
The seller is high. Games are worth nowhere near that much.
Wata is full of crap in general.
My family used to have game night once a week and we'd sit and play Atari on our console TV. We had the paddles and we had the paddles with the wheel on them. We'd play Frogger and F1 Pole Position.
Edit: this was right around when Nintendo came out and they were EXPENSIVE.
We did too. They were between $35 and $40. And if they were poorly designed like Raiders, you could not take them back.
Before I watch the video, I’m going to guess the seller wants eBay prices and Big Hoss will lowball.
They didn't even offer anything because no one wants to buy an expensive game they can't play
You should watch the video before commenting. I promise you, you won't be a fool if you watch it first
You would have realised that Corey made no offer and the seller was wanting potential future pricing...
Bad guess. The seller is delusional as usual.
You've seen this show before, haven't you? 😁
@Pokemon2019the market isn't as strong as you think. Look up vintage Atari game prices.
Beautiful and very beautiful show.
I thought chumlee was gonna turn around and be like yeah I’m the expert
The last Atari game they ever made I was playing Boxing 🥊 a 1987 game for Atari.. before I got NES for Christmas of 1988..
that hit on the counter @3:41 😭
i would imagine that Daley Thompsons Decathlon on Atari ST would be worth a few bucks in mint. loved that game..
You can get Raiders Ebay sealed for about 30ish dollars. The Frogger is more expensive sealed by far but it's still only maybe 300-400. These combined are worth maybe 350-400 tops and you could probably get them for less.
I'm holding onto my beanie babies... they're only goin up in value.
I had the Atari Frogger back then in the way back machine
Is it just me or do they have a buddy for everything
A buddy for dog poop in a shoe box
I had a boxed Raiders, as soon as I saw this I thought, yeah that's not big money.
Calls in an expert , and walks in AVGN . Would have been epic .
Title: *BIG $$$*
Expert: *like a hundred bucks*
I mean..... 3 dollar signs.... right? 3 dollar signs is the hundreds.
Levi No, it implies “BIG MONEY” not the actual amount of dollars signs they used to mirror the actual amount.
@@Speedur_ 🤦♂️
Chum/Corey bout to offer the seller $5 GameStop credits for the games.
I remember being so frustrated playing that Indiana Jones game as a kid. Reminds me of the first Atari baseball game that had a computer player to play with. I was so amazed back then that I didn't need a player-two!
Yes! I think I played Raiders 3 times and that was it. The graphics were so bad you had no idea what chamber you were in.
Baseball was awesome
But do they have Battle Toads?
Frogger belongs in a museum!
Finding out that the seller and the guy from WATA are friends, makes for a wholly different viewing experience. Game collector Seth Abramson has published the results of an investigation into this video under the title 'America's Video Game Scandal Continues: More Evidence of Deception By Grading Company WATA'. Worth reading - shame I can't link it here - try googling the title.
Watch your self, you could end up in trouble for exposing the video game mafia shhh🤫
I had both those games wish I had kept them
We used to get new games in a discount store mist I paid was £4
If I ever bring something to Pawn Stars I'm going to bring along my own specialist.
You just need to know how to negotiate. Never give them your best offer off the break, never tell them "how much you'll take". They will lowball you to start, you bring the bar back up high after setting the bar high.
Asking $1600? Are you insane!
You seem to be uneducated.
Bro that frogger is $2000
Love it when someone thinks they’re sitting on a goldmine and they’re promptly brought back down to Earth. The Frogger’s nice but $1200???!!!
Honestly, like maybe give it another 60 years then you can ask for that kinda price but not in today's market
A 9.8 has sold in september for 2,500$. So he was being polite.
3:09 No, no, no ... *Sega* was the _Genesis_ of video games. Some expert! 🙄
Atari... was. I remember my dad was telling me story's about it. Mainly arcade style games. So everyone wanted Atari.. unless you talking about Sega genesis. Sega wasn't popular until sonic the hedgehog.
I would LOVE to know what that guy is smoking to come up with that valuation!
Probably looked up the highest asking price he could find on Ebay. Ones that will never sell.
I use to list common Hotwheels on Ebay at a million dollars just to enjoy the hate messages.
@@christianmeglio9111 Do you still do it? I'd love to see your listings and the hate replies. Please don't tease like that if it's nowhere to be found anymore.
You dont agree with what the PSA guy said?! Lulz
Brother I think he's from WATA
"I don't know if they need an expert to come in, it's really based on what someone's willing to pay for it" aka "I think the expert will say they're worth less than I want, but I still want that much".
I have a full system for Atari and the 2600 with every game with original boxes but played.
So what are trying to do with it?
I started with pong in 1972 and cannot stop, HELP!
As soon as he made a comment about them not needing an expert I knew he was asking for way too much!
Just feel this was yesterday, parents never bought me Atari as no cash ended up with a commodore 64 high times,
Can not stand the way Corey shakes someone's hand. Do it normally you fool
i thought he was away to closeline the guy
Yep, all for the camera.
Just calm down bucko
This show is faker than Chumlee's sobriety
