- More excellent video game finds in this video both for resale and for the collection! In this one I share my best tips and tricks for finding stuff at video game stores to sell on Amazon and eBay, and give some examples of games that have been doing the best for me!
Check out my Instagram where I post more about individual finds, sales, and profit snapshots: / phoenixresale
eBay Store: www.ebay.com/u...
Lol, that shout-out made my day
Awww yeah! Well-deserved!
You are the best people I have ever watched
You have become my favorite reseller channel as of late. Keep the good work up 👍🏽
What a high honor, thanks!
I can imagine the disc replay stores calling the other stores to brag about getting a customer buying 800$ worth of stuff that they never thought they would get rid off, only to realize that you cleaned out the other stores too. 😂
Great finds man. I went to that Nostalgic Ganes once, too high for me. Definitely need to look into Ps1, Ps2 , N64, they are spiked too
Yeah I definitely know more about n64 than ps1, but I’ll start doing a bit more checking.
Wow. Older video. I just got into your channel recently and the first store was the mega replay I always went to for my gaming needs. Unfortunately it is permanently closed but it was super cool to see a store I've been too in a video
Yeah i bought a bunch of ps3 motion controllers at goodwill for 3.99 easy 50+ flip. Started with chase videos
Excellent!
Dude’s videos has helped me so much! Never get tired of him. I do love the yard sales and trades videos the best. Does anyone know how often he posts? I only found him this week and I’ve watched almost 60 of his videos. Finished the GameCube gambit. Does he post longer videos anywhere else? Thanks you guys and god bless!
When I saw all these gamez My Heart drop, dont stop your Amazing youtube and game buyer
CZcamsr I cant imagine if you'll comment on this
Dude, Mega Replay rocks! The Peoria store is always popping off
1:12 You are the best youtuber on the platform without a doubt
Thanks to your channel I’m keeping and preserving all my gaming items. I look at all the spiked prices and think I had AAALLLLLL Of that stuff as a kid lol so upset with myself sometimes I remember giving a lot of it away too :( cards too I think I may still have my Pokémon binder in the attic tho. That’s a mission in itself lol
Have you ever gone around the St Louis area? Some good ones are:
Slackers- a chain similar to Game Xchange for the STL area.
Vintage Stock- A Midwest chain similar to Game Xchange.
Grumpy Bob’s Emporium- family owned store in Maryville IL (20 min from STL) very nice and unique because the whole store is made out of an old house. I love that they use the kitchen cupboards for shelves haha
I wouldn’t want to go home either after spending that much. 😉😂💕 good hauls!
Weaver Dental Care! Love it...
Great video! I have used Chase’s list about sports games. I hardly know anything about video games, but I did a buy recently with some PlayStation games. Mortal Kombat and Alien Trilogy did well. A RPG game Koudelka sold for $169.99. You may already know these, but figured I would share.
Sure didn’t, that’s awesome!
When you showed the mega replay at the start of the video my heart nearly stopped. Thats the one right next to my house!
Great haul, love the stickers on the water bottle lol
Haha yeah
For Playstation one:
*Parasite eve * Silent hill * Resident evil * Spyro * Crash * Dino crisis * Tomb raider * Clock tower * Disney games * Final fantasy (not sure if all of them are high valuable). Those are valuable on New and very good condition. Prices are higher on ebay probably on amazon are even more higher
First yard sales on Saturday here! So excited
Im from Michigan and ive been to Indianapolis disc replay, right before covid it was overstocked and loaded on rares.
Also the buy 5 get the 6th free continues as you buy. So if you buy 12 you get 2 free and so on.
Even better drinking game, take a drink every time you say the word "folks" 😂
I like your videos 😁 love seeing what 3ds you get. Would love to see you by games in the UK
Love watching your hauls! I have zero knowledge of video games, but I'm trying to focus on a few of your things to look out for. Thanks for the awesome videos!
RIP to mega replay in Bloomington IL
What a haul! Man. Looks like you had a great trip to see the family. How did the dells go?
Oh another fellow Illinois resident
Great haul! Seriously between you and Chase there aren't going to be any video games left in the wild!
Haha maybe not in Indiana!
Great video, congrats on the pickups!!!!!😀
Thanks!
I was stoked for you when you flashed the NCAA 14. Nice job man!
Thanks!
CRAZY that you found NCAA Football 14 for $50! Im watching in december 2021 and that game has only gotten more and more expensive. I believe its up over $200+
just found this channel, supscribed and have been watching your videos all day!
You should at least look for horror titles on PS1 and PS2. Most the Silent Hills are over $100 now. RE1 black label can get you 100-120. Some of these stores slipping so hard on the prices. Nice scores! When those wireless adapters first came out for 360 I think they were $99.99. That set me way back- back in the day.
Good recommendations!
There’s a disc replay store near me called super mega replay one of the biggest out there you should look it up definitely would be worth the trip it’s super cool
Hey, how do you find these stores and yard sales? Any specific apps or websites you use? I’m just looking for better suppliers, to start off with. Thanks! 😄
Yardsale treasure map
Get it done!
Aye!!! Love the new music in the background 🔥
Resident evil 3 on the ps1 is selling for $50 on ebay. Probably sell for more on Amazon of course. FF7 is also going for the same price for a black label.
Good tips!
7:16 when you skipped Street 3 lmaooooo
I’ve showed that one before haha
dude nostalgic in Cincinnati is so much fun to go through
Haha yeah they have plenty of stuff! It’s just all overpriced :/
Well I don't know if you still have it but the nfl head coach 09 game on the Xbox 360 is more like a $60-$80+ game right now! Also congrats on scoring so many copies of nfl head coach 09!
Haha thanks! But this vid was posted in the spring haha
Ayyyeee Indianapolis bruh 😎
move controllers at 3 game stores near me are 10 bucks CAD each.
. i own 6 of them. 2 came with my vr. another 2 came with the charger base i bought for 20 bucks.
and 2 more because i figure the price has to be going up. i can sell 4 that i have soon to keep the money to buy the new ones when they come out.
i tried to flip 2 of them 3 years ago. no one was interested. so who knows.
Hate to break it to you Bud but most of the GameCube Games in your first pick ups were REPO Covers and Repo cases with no manuals. So yeah your looking at DISC Only prices on the Madden 08 and what not...
Hate to break it to YOU bud, but this video is like a year old. Everything sold at or above what I estimated
what's the first piece of music in this please?
Great video I am in New York how do your recommend finding these stores also do you scan each item ?
Yep I scan everything I’m not familiar with. Google maps
Why is Amazon so much more expensive then eBay ? Most of the games and prices seem way higher on Amazon
Great video like always
Damn u know if theirs stores like this in northern michigan?
I have the pikachu special edition 2ds xl. What do those go for?
thats how it always is buy x amt the cheapest value is free, so you need 6 pricey ones to get a 7th pricey free
Ken Griffy Jr: Major League Baseball for SNES has gone pretty nuts for being a less than $5 game forever.
Great tip!
Yeah I got a deal for 4 for 10$ 2.50$ each saved 36$ games worth 240$ GameStop still have some gem's 😊 I was going to just one good game
which games?
Hi new subscriber here, I recently paid $243.00 for a mint red new 3dxl with the box, was that a good price? I've been noticing that the new 3ds xl's are quite expensive on mercari and eBay.
Let’s go!
Keep up the good work
Thought for sure when you said Cincinnati that it was going to be arcade legacy
I feel like all businesses do that like whenever they have a BOGO sale they’ll take the least expensive item and give a discount or give it free guess that’s their way of making money
Why does the discord link make you pay? Is it a private chat or...?
Did every store ask you if you were a reseller?
Nope, not one.
A lot of those cases look like they don’t fit so good!? 😬 Pokémon and tekken
That NCAA Football 14 is on Amazon for $385 right now 😳
That god of war controller is worth like $100 by itself! That's insane.
Haha yeah that’s what I priced it at, a pretty good item if you ask me!
If you're ever in L.A. I got some great spots for u to check out
That head coach 09 Xbox 360 game does not go for that like 15-20 on eBay
This was a while ago, also Amazon prices are pretty much always higher
The 3ds console are selling for $190 ?
Can you show us screen shots of your 3ds consoles that sell for the $190 brother ?
Thanks.
Well this was from like 10 months ago so no, but if you’re skeptical I have a what sold video coming out in a couple weeks you’ll enjoy
@@PhoenixResale love the videos. Nice
What’s your profit after fees %10 ? Honestly
Most of the numbers I give are after fees. I shoot for at least 100% with most stuff, higher-dollar items I’ll go as low as 50%
Cool. What location was this store?
I can’t remember specifically, sorry!
Phoenix Resale no worries. I finished watching the video and realized you went to multiple ones we had one in my city but it closed down earlier this year.
Ever have your card declined with all those purchases during your travels? I know Ive had a few fraud alerts while doing a thrift travel from Florida to Illinois. Nice haul Caleb.
Haha yeah I have, but I usually resolve them pretty quick!
Xbox sports games for 100+ each who in the world pays that? I know there are people. But I feel like no one even plays 360 anymore
Marvel vs capcom 3 on ps4 spiked
your audio was really rough when showing off the games, like it physicall hurt my ear because the balance was so off lol, love your videos though but this one i had to skip at the end
The mastering is great. The are using a volume limiter to keep a flat ceiling of acceptable loudness.
i get this is an older video but here are my thoughts as someone whos been selling items for 15 years. Find other things to sell. Stop buying all the games that ACTUAL gamers want to buy. you are part of the reason the prices are so high. if you are going to buy games, thats fine, but find games that arent very popular that have value to resell. i sell games myself but i sell games that arent as popular and i dont jack the prices up. Also, stop buying games that are cart or disc only. thats asking for returns. buy complete games, or at least with original case and artwork.
If I’m not buying games that ACTUAL gamers wanted… how would I ever sell them? 🤔
Exactly how popular should a game be for me to be allowed to sell it? 🤔
Having done this for 15 years surely you know that more listings for a given game online = Lower prices. The only way a game’s price increases is if the demand goes up, not if more resellers put them online. But that’s all just review for you, right T? 🤔
@@PhoenixResale Because you are taking games that people can probably afford from game stores and throwing them on amazon where the prices are stupidly inflated because some stupid soccer mom doesnt know any better and pays way over what something is worth. I couldnt do that in good faith. The fact that amazon allows this is just ridiculous. If a store has a mario game for 35$ and you see its worth 85 on amazon, you have now taken their chance to buy it away. No true gamer is going to pay inflated amazon prices. What if that person only had 35$ to spend on that mario game? you have just taken that opportunity away from them because all you care about is making money. Im not saying making money is a bad thing, but driving all over to buy every good game up is not cool. We were just in Lex for vacation and i wanted to get a couple things for the collection but literally everything worth anything was gone.
@@thagerdorn2009 Aren't you essentially doing the same thing with other items? Taking away someone's chance to buy an item at a lower value so you can take it and sell it elsewhere for a higher value.

you're a SHARK
I hate you resellers I can’t get any DS games anywhere in the 3DS games are getting hard to get
You’re just as bad as the scalpers
