Big thanks to Retro Games Plus in Redondo Beach for letting us shoot in their store! If you're in the area check em out! It's a great location that we only showed a small part of! 🎮
shame on you for breaking a ps2
@@pervertedguyswearedon’t worry, it was an already broken one
Alright let me get a plane ticket and I'll head down.
Anyone else read this in davis' voice?
“It isn’t broken! The console is just…built different.”
What the makers of the Soulja Boy console likely said for $500.
Incorrectly
Aw man, if it had been in mint condition he might have given you a whole $10 in store credit...and then resold it for hundreds
As a Game store owner..... This is totally how people act. If they aren't just calling in and trying to get top dollar sight unseen.
Showed the people at Retro Games Plus early and they said they felt seen 😂
So they become snake oil merchants?
Like this comment
Was that monopoly cash
Just the fact he got the word flimflam in makes me love this all the more
It was malarkey of the highest order!
i dont get paid enough for this
brother that line hits soo hard.
btw the store is a real one?
Yup! Check pinned comment 👍
I love the fact that the controller isnt even a duel shock 2 its just straight up a six axis controller😂
Nice detail of giving him 6 monopoly’s than actual dollars and he didn’t noticie it
😂😂😂
Watching droopy sticks on a PS2 controller causes me anxiety I can't explain 😂
It must have that new fangled wireless power supply too.
Bro didn’t even realize there was no power cord😭😭
You could take an undamaged console into Gamestop and they’d still only give you 50 bucks for it and then they resell it for 200
Oh yes this thing is absolutely going to get refurbished and upsold for 50.
I think that I secretly watched the only remake of Wonka that I didn't know that I wanted but I'm glad that I got.
It’s actually depressing how these once-modern marvels of science are now worth pennies.
Hasn't been long enough to be considered a relic worth more than pennies. It will eventually
This "The Music Man" reference gets zero points for not having a song based on "Ya Got Trouble" like "The Monorail Song" "The Flim Flam Brothers Song" and "SCP Confinement Special - Anomalies"
How Dick Richards got his start 😂😂😂
Can we just take a moment to notice the "Store Credit" to be Monopoly money?😂
Lmao.
And, turns out, there are some days where the world can be just plain weird when it wants to be.
It's a flim flam deal with those consoles. Especially at Gamestop.
Saw this video and immediately thought it was another customer Ben sketch in the Bored series from VLDL, lmao
Damn what a steal
as someone who works in second hand retail for a tech company, this is weirdly accurate other than the fact the tone is always more aggressive, and they are never happy with the price and ends with me as an SA not even getting 5 minutes to shake off a death threat. 💀
I also notice that he sold a PS3 controller with a PS2... now that's future-proofing!
I went in a Gamestop the other day only to have one of those people in front of me. I kid you not, the guy was wearing a trenchcoat like he was just getting out of Deus Ex and tried to push this broken console (it was tested, controller had broken sticks 90% like those there). ''Oh but I can't go home if you don't take it because my taxi's waiting for me... I need this money...''
The guy had every damn cliche in the video and then some. I swear some people are just... special like that.
And then they resell it as "vintage" for $200.
Why are you dressed like Scott the Woz?
2:05 Implying that GameStop actually repairs used consoles they buy. Which they don't.
Friend, either you're closing your eyes to a situation you do not wish to acknowledge, or you are unaware of the caliber of disaster indicated by a lack of retro gaming hardware in your store!
Well, you got trouble my friend
As an employee for a game store. I can confirm with 100% certainty, that's how people act.
The real gag is the line "I don't get paid enough for this."
We need more Lawrence Lollipop.
Viva La Dirt League looks different now...new cast members?
Don’t forget the part where it is now being sold for 100 bucks vintage gaming console
Malarkey & Flim Flam……I can’t 😂😂😂😂
its funny the sales men never look to see he was given monopoly money
Now to go pay my rent on Vermont Avenue. WHAHAHAHA!!!!!!
Rule of thumb: If a strange man who looks like he comes from a barbershop quartet comes up to you and tries to sell you something, call the cops.
So I struggled first. This is the perspective of one who has worked in this business. Its because I have never been an employee any of these sorts of companies I got confused.
Then I thought of that one friend who goes "But nah brah i got some paper clips and a stapler because I gave them the PS2 I stomped on after you whooped me in Tekken."
When did Davis get Scott's barber shop quartet outfit from Borderline Forever?
Davis is definitely building his own Council of Reeds filled with all of these evil geniuses, business-savvy characters. Great video as always!
Dont give him ideas...donu know the ammount if acting he will have to do.....n the lack luster reward he will get
The fact that it was monopoly money is even more funny 🤣
Love your videos since 2016
As someone that works in a second hand shop where we buy and sell consoles and such I hate how right this is aha
Could've just sold it on Ebay, would've made a little more money.
U know… I feel the same way but I am working at CVS sometimes u don’t get enough pay… when customers act foolish…
I smell a new series
I. FREAKING. MISS MY PS2.
then next week it will be on sale as is for $25
as a gamestop employee, this is pretty much how my spring has been going so far (seriously yall, clean your damn consoles)
Lawrence must do this a lot I had no idea
The clerk probably changed his mind and gave him $6 cash instead of $5 store credit since the credit would imply that he would have to deal with this guy again! LOL 😂
The lack of a musical number is criminal.
Dude ya nailed the facial expressions...
Ironically I'd rather have it rebuilt rather than sell one is still one of the best longest running game systems the PS2
I love your videos they always make me laugh
Also, there is an error in casting. Scarlet Sheppard isn't playing the role of Game Store Owner in this skit, it's Michael Schroeder.
I immediately got flashbacks to when I tried to do that, he is so me lol 😅😂
I mean, if he comes in with new material every time, might be worth the six dollars.
Ye Olde Dicke Richards Esquire, also known in some parts as Tricky Dick seems to have gotten himself ye olde time machine.
Great one😂
Wait til they get a load of the ps4 I'm selling tomorrow. They amount of "modifications" is impeccable. 🧐
Just got back from a game store after selling some games and consoles, not knowing if I got ripped off
Now wait how long it takes this Guy to realize he was paid in Monopoly-Money!
Sometimes they don't even ch..
He does know he has to use that "store credit" right?
Bro used Monopoly money 😂
as a game store worker, i hope some of you realize that these companies wanna make this thing called profit
I could have sworn that "salesman's" name was gonna be scoots
wonder if there any bloopers by any chance?
You guys got some sun.
….i truly hope we see more of this character
The game store gave them monopoly money, so guess who has the last laugh?
Liked how he gave the con Artist, literally Monopoly Money! Lol
And he still thinks he won! Lol
But Springfield is still gonna get that Monorail right?
Of course! And the River City marching band is gonna be a huge success!
I wanna see a sketch of how Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League was made.
Should have bought that for like $500 It has all those great features😂
lol he should look again. Its was Monopoly money!!! 😂
Great job on this video Davis we're did you shoot this video? I'm just curious plus you look like bert from mary Poppins
Retro Games Plus in Redondo Beach!
@@TheWarpZone awesome thanks for that 👍
To be fair... why the hell would you go to a gaming store and expect to get a lot of money out of your old games/consoles in the first place?
Me, a fan of SGS from the beginning, just now discovering this channel: "This guy sounds really familiar for some reason. Huh...I think he sounds like... Like Davis?"
😂 My mind has been blown.
I think he tricked ya mate, monopoly money is not legal currency!😂
this is one of those, should have had a job like that to really understand it.
... yeah this is not exactly a word for word
But is a good rep of the mentality.
Since the $6 is in the form of store credit he WILL have to face him again...
That was the original ending we wrote, where the owner was gonna call out that it's only redeemable at the store but then when we were shooting, Lawrence Lollypop getting lost in the store was funnier
Looks like he got given monopoly money...fairly certain the scammer got scammed @@TheWarpZone
How much did he pay for the consal originally
A year or 2 ago I sold my old PS3 and the bastards paid me "gracia" because the controller knob was turning slightly to the right. All I had to do was correct it and there was peace for an hour or I could just hold the knob like most players and have no control, but there was no excuse to give with 10% of what they ask for from the person who buys it from them. I had to sell it online, but it was the first time I did something like this and I was in a hurry.
I'm thinking if selling my old GBA whose cords have gone missing so its practically useless. How much can I scam GameStop for that piece of trash?
Ever meet a fella by the name of Hill?
I saw this video before it released✨
"When a Customer Tries to Sell Back a Broken Console"
That's not what the video is about.
It's... Not?
@@TheWarpZone No, he's not selling BACK anything. He's just selling. Selling it back says he bought it from them, at least recently, and is trying to then sell it back. He's JUST selling it. It's a good, funny vid, well done, but the title made me think I was gonna get... well, also a scam, but a different one.
Todd Howard is that you?
As much as I like your content guys it has to be said... "been watching VLDL much??"
Too funny!
Can we have Dick Richard and Lawrence Lollipop in one room together?
Laurence Has no idea that the game is to the buyer, as he managed to hand him Monopoly money rather than actual currency.
Store credit
Love the PS3 controller with the PS2 and the monopoly money for store credit lol
Very WZ Nice 🎮🕹️
I feel like $6 is worth less now than 6 CENTS was from the era that Davis is dressing from.
Warp Zone enters its Dick Van Dyke period. Gor blimey guv’nor!
Six dollars doesn’t get you far in his economy
The store scammed him with Monopoly money
