I feel like it wasn’t long ago at all that this video was posted! Time really flies. I love this eBay series so decided to go back to watch the first episode again and I see that it was already 8 years since this first episode. Thank you so much for all your years of entertainment Pete!
9 years ago 😳
I found this really useful!
Me too. So when’s the donation of that hair wig?
@@COOLDUDERBALD God you're all over these videos. Stop being a weirdo.
i really really wanna see more of these..and i dont mind you staying on one item figuring out if you want it or not.i love the thought process in this video pointing out and giving info..this is one of my favorite videos i've seen of your stuff just because its so informative and interesting
Mac has screen recording built in. You just run Quicktime then in the file menu select "New screen recording". You can select the whole screen, a region or a window to record.
This series is incredible.
I thought I was the only one who could hunt for a game for an hour & find it entertaining. The thrill of looking for something rare is so fulfilling.
I'm currently looking up all the best deals on PAL 3DS games since they're all marked up compared to the US prices. Been finding some gems.
Ah good old eBay they add good changes while CZcams does the opposite
Which is ironic since CZcams is formed by former PayPal employees!
Also, you can use search modifiers too. For instance "sign -Pokemon" won't show those Pokemon games
nigga got the old school mew2king look on point
omfg i've literally always thought that too
Holy crap Pete. Great video series idea. Exactly what I'm interested in seeing from you. Keep it up man, I'm very excited to see more of this series.
This was so great to watch. The guy with the NSFW magazines was hilarious. 'Quite the jump in content'. PLEASE make an Episode 2!!
Great video Pete. You gave some really good advice. You got a thumbs up from me and I really want to see more of these types of videos in the future.
Also the screen recorder for Mac you're referring to I'm pretty sure is ScreenFlow. I brought it for my Mac and it really is great. It will really make things easier for you. I have been using a Mac for about 3-4 months now and it has been great.
I am not against custom stuff, but with limited space I am very picky about what I choose to take up space. I once traded a complete copy of Panzer dragoon saga for a custom made ICO Sackboy plush, so I definitely make some exceptions.
Since a lot of people seem to really enjoy this video, I am sure this will become a regular new series for me. Stay tuned!
i Like eBay Game Hunting Videos
Don't watch, add to bookmarks. Just so any other people bid low expecting JUST them to be bidding.
good advice. Watched an item earlier this week that was BIN & OBO. morning after I click to watch it the seller gets rid of the OBO option.
you cant see how many people are watching an auction ... also when you bid 15$ on a 5$ auction it sets your bid automatically to 6$...
Do please keep doing these. Watching someone who does this, and seeing how he does it is always the best way to learn something.
This series(hopefully) is right up my street would love to see more Pete!
Mr. dorr i have always loved video games. Recently my drive to play them was lowered when i realized their have not been too many original titles out for the consoles i own. (pc, vita, and ps3) but after seeing your channel i invested in some older ps 1 titles that i really enjoy like RE and Syphan Filter. thank you for posting videos i watch all your stuff and it gets me looking for new titles to play :). Thanks
Fantastic video Pete. It's always a joy to see a new upload from you and this one was particularly unique and interesting.
I would definitely love to see more and hope you are able to make more! Thanks for letting us join in on your eBay browsing :)
Easily one of my favorite videos you have done, can't wait to see more.
Wow pete you showed me so much awesome stuff in that video. I love the 3d Sign from halo you showed and olly moss art is just awesome.
i just watched a guy use ebay for 25 minutes...... i have no life
def wanna see more of this. These tips can be used with more than just VideoGames which is great to see
Definitely do more Pete, really enjoyed this video. You know what would be super cool though? You streaming a genuine ebay game hunting session, and then maybe uploading the video afterwards? Would be good to be able to interact with you while you're looking through!
Yeah Pete this video was great! Love to see another one; the very random nature of it is very appealing to collectors like us!
I keep trying to scroll with my mouse on your eBay screen shots...
What a great new concept for this channel, really keeps things fresh. Great job Pete.
Your thought process while ebay-ing is extremely hilarious and awesome.
Keep doing more, man.
A series about this would be really great. Also, could you do a video about searching for specific items and/or other places besides eBay that you look to find great deals?
I just bought a DS Fat and two Wii game from eBay this week. I bought The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword and The Godfather: Blackhand Edition for the Wii. I traded both in to help pay for my Wii U and felt stupid for doing it, so I decided I was going to get them both since my wife was buying me an early birthday present. Then she told me to also get the DS Fat since I've been wanting one for a while. My wife just totally rocks hard!!!
Great to see you putting up more frequent videos pete. Loving the channel.
Great video, being a long time collector I already know most of these strategies but I could have definitely used something like this when I was starting. Keep it coming Pete
Pete, buy the 100$ mac program. Really awaiting a 3rd episode and many more to come. Great work
I don't often leave a comment, but I really loved the video (Was actually really hoping you'd do something like this for a long while.) Please do more of these! :D
I'm just here for the hair
Our school used to pre install the screen recording software on our MacBooks before we got iPads. It was a great way to post gameplay vids
that was pretty cool. lol as strange as it is, i'd watch you stream that on twitch too. just interesting to hear commentary about the things on ebay, like what's rare and what's a good deal. nice vid. keep 'em coming!
Pete has a good heart and really cares about his viewers
Here's a game I recommend all DBZ fans (It'll be especially great if you know Japanese) Dragon Ball Kai Ultimate Butouden. It's a game for the DS that is waaaaay ahead of it's time. The graphics are really impressive for it being just a DS game.
What? it was released in 2011 and its graphics are nothing special
I like this alot. Honestly if you end up buying that program for your mac I would watch these every-time I see one out.
Hey Pete loved this video! One of the best I've seen in a LONGTIME. Please keep this series going!
When is episode 2 coming out?
Episode 2 is now up!
Episode 2 is now up!
FUCK YES! CHEERS PETE LOVE YOUR WORK :)

Pete, these are great tips for people that are not looking for anything in particular. Do you have any tips if you're looking for something in particular?
Great video man! I really appreciate your taking the time to share your tips. I never really looked at ebay much (I mostly stick to thrift shops and Craigslist) for collecting because I didn't really know how to search and use Buy It Now to my advantage and get decent deals. Thanks!
Right on! I am new to retro shopping on ebay. Thanks for posting pete!
I have never seen anyone else do this. You are very good at hunting games.
Great video Pete, an original idea which was very interesting, would love to see more of this.
at 10:12 time poor pete didnt notice a huge lot super nintendo 17 game and 2 dogbone controllers with 20 min left at 22.50$ darn that looks like one id watch .. love ya pete keep on kepin on
thanks for the tips Pete, I knew a couple already but you've definitely helped widen my search. Top video!
shopping on ebay tips....man way to keep people entertained and informed
This video was awesome, Pete! I could watch videos like this for days and never get bored. More would be so cool.
Awesome video!! I have just started out to buy retro consoles and games. Yesterday, I bought my first two retro consoles. There were the Sega Saturn + Sega Dreamcast on eBay. My first baby step for future retro games and consoles. I would love to see more videos like this!! Especially for new comers like me. A BIG THUMBS UP FROM ME!!!
I don't alphabetize my games. Crazy I know, but I am just not obsessed with keeping an order like that. i like having to browse through my games helplessly, sometimes I find something totally different to play than I was originally looking for.
It's funny that you would say that. Although I'm personally indifferent on the matter, my sister just graduated from film school. Looking at many different schools, she found the common thing was they all required macs for their filming, recording, and editing processes.
Great idea for a video Pete! In Australia, Amazon is pretty much out of the question, due to the massive shipping costs. Thanks so much for putting together a guide to Ebay, as it is a service we can use too :)
I would kill to have independent game stores or thrift shops by me. I beg to differ about ebay requiring no effort. It takes a lot of time and patience to find rare/unique items at a good price (and sometimes not-so-good-price) on ebay. I have bought tons of stuff on here that I would NEVER find in the wild.
This is the age of minutiae. I'm watching a guy shop on eBay and it's riveting. Love ya Pete! I'm a subscriber and I liked.
Hey Pete, you can edit your feed on the Ebay home page by using the little 'My Interests' box. There's some great tips on here, you should do another one!
ya man, the first 2 minutes of this totally remind me of myself on eBaY. iTS SOOO addicting. just "watch" will get you in trouble down the road. hahah I swear if I could upload some pictures I took of my room with almost 30 packages I got from my PO box in 1 day.... its like Xmas opening all my games haha. and that went on for like 4 days straight. getting 100's of single wrapped packages in my PO box within like 4 days.... I still buy a lot but I slow down on the purchases now lmfao
Interesting insight. I would like to see more + I enjoy listerning to your narrative voice :D
Thanks for tips on using really general search terms and how to spot the less experienced sellers who don't know the value sometimes.
Great video. I would love to see the series continued Pete
I started to laugh so hard when the NSFW stuff cropped up there. XD Really great video, Pete, the tips are really useful.
Hope to see more episodes of you looking around eBay for rare game items in the future.
More of a buy it now guy as well. I've also found that the quality of items are just higher for buy it now items (which is probably why it's listed at a higher price). I do go for auctions if it's a significant discount though. Got all three Saturn Panzer Dragoons for less than $400 a year ago through auction. If i tried that for buy it now listings, it would be SIGNIFICANTLY higher than $500. The funny thing is, the quality was perfectly fine once I replaced the horribly cracked jewel cases and got the discs cleaned (harmless scratches, but a lot). I could easily sell these now great condition games in the $600 range lol. Of course, I've no plans to sell off my collection heh. Some seriously useful tips here, though, even three years later. Thanks!
i liked this, its a good guide for a beginner like me, usefull tips and you show some cool items, im surely gonna watch this series.
Cool video Pete, helpful as well..do you buy most of your non current gen games and merch on ebay?
Loved this video Pete keep them coming please. Also I would enjoy a video on your impressions of the next gen consoles :-)
21:15 Well that escalated quickly! Lol. Great vid pete.
Good vid Pete this really helped with my game searchs on the UK eBay as well. Please continue with these vids!
OMG i found you pete ! you are like me ! i am a game collector addict i get games from EVERYWERE ebay amazon gamestop walmart hastings EVERYWERE i am a game addict (collecting wise) and game play wise but i really whant to stop like i see a game or ( accesorie with the game ) and i go OMG I NEED THAT ! HOW DO I STOP !!!!!
I really enjoyed this! You should continue the series and make more!
Nice, keep doing this its not fun to watch but i get some type of click in my mind that just makes me keep watching and for whatever reason its satisfying to watch....
this is actually very helpful even though i don't collect games i collect vinyl
Sort of. I will mention it when I do episode 2.
Do more! On the hunt for games on ebay in the mind of pete....sounds good!
Please do more. I browse eBay every day for this kind of stuff!
The more you tell your tactics, the less you will find.
exactly. that seems like a no brainer. i can't believe he would want a hundred thousand people to see how to steal his deals.. what an ignorant move.
>implying the autistic fucks who watch these videos havent maxed out their parents cards already
***** lol, I also just stumbeled across the video in my boredom.
brrnay
Maybe he figured out he could get the roms instead for free instead of spending tons of money on plastic and paper.. basically.
***** I'm going to call the Vatican and have you thrown into the Satanic Dimension.
Good stuff Pete, I enjoyed this and wouldn't mind watching more in the future. Thanks!
A heads up: Update to Mountain Lion (10.8) it has quicktime X, it has screen recording free. 30 bucks for the OSX in the app store.
Definatley do more of these, very entertaining
This was really different and enjoyable. Would definitely watch more of these
These videos are pretty good, but I don't think I'd like this too frequently I appreciate more of your regular content.
First time i see your videos, and i dont see any lag when u browsing ebay. Keep up the good work!
Really enjoyable Pete! I want this to be a series
You are now my Gaming Guru, just got a gamecube with 5 games for £20 and Banjo Kazooie in its box for £5. thank you!
thanks, I figured there was a way to filter results like that, just never bothered to look it up :)
glad to see you back on youtube. I met you at pax east. keep up the good work.
I really love this new video series, Pete. :) You are definitely playing pro when it comes to ebay.
I've been looking and buying retro games on ebay for ages and i must say that there are some really nice search features of the website that i don't even know the existence... By example : completed listings.
Thank you Pete
This was very interesting, id watch part 2! I see we share alot of the same strategy's while browsing the bay.
I wasn't expecting to enjoy this video but it was quite entertaining and informative. Thumbs up for a part 2!
i enjoyed the video. My Neato trick I do with acquiring some of the rare/valuable games is I nab a game thats say.... just the disc or catridge at a garage sale/flea market/variety store clearance etc. i purchase it for dirt or haggle it down.Then I patiently wait on ebay for the box/case/manual/inserts either by themselves for cheap or in some weird lot. I got the disc for Fire Emblem on wii for 5.00 at a flea market then i got the case/manual a month later on ebay...yes this method is patience
Pete. We need some more of these!
This is a fantastic way to tell new collectors how it works. Thumbs up bro!
very nice Pete, you going to get me in trouble with expanding PS2 collection....please keep doing these and do one on PS2 collecting!.
Great video, some helpful little tips for even someone like me who regularly uses eBay.
Great tips, but I think eBay made this a lot harder now because when someone lists up something they pretty much show you what the going rate of the products are. It seems like lots are really the best ways to get rare gems, because individual games are likely to be raised up by the suggested price feature and trending prices.
Thoroughly enjoyed this video Pete. Very informative ;) Please keep this up.
Watched a couple of your videos before but this made me subscribe. MORE!!!!
i have been around for 10 years in E-bay, i have found this video very useful
