I cant see all the titles clearly but besides the BO2, most of those 360/XB1 games looked like older sports games or older COD games that most places would indeed probably refuse or at best give pennies for. Kinda unfortunate but its either basically give them away or take a buck or less. I ended up donating a bunch of my old PS4 madden games because they are literally worth nothing. $3-4 shipped on eBay which pretty much equates to losing money.
Thanks dude, we're growing as a community here and the more of us that feel this way, the less ripping off people will be able to do. This is an educational channel with insults thrown in to make people laugh.
$10 for that xbox was low (even though they're a dime a dozen these days), but at least his friend was respectful enough to let that lady know that he didn't want to buy anything that she was still attached to. He could teach Dookie Diamond a few lessons, who of course right after that comment still insists they should buy allllll of it. Seems like every video he's pressuring the people to sell him their stuff at all costs SMH. Sounds like someone who didn't take no for an answer as a kid.
True that. Here in Canada, Xbox 360 these days is a hard sell in general. $30/40 average for a complete system, loose, and that is if you manage to find an interested party. Thrift stores ate full of them, too.
@@DataHombre Yup I have a local pawn shop chain that gets them in all the time and prices em between $29-39 and even at that price they dont seem to move that fast.
Also $10 for an Xbox 360 and a stack of games is basically like giving him rocks and a grain of salt for it because we all know damn well he could get over $110 for it
I'm a huge n64 fan and the three games that she did offer to sell are low value N64 games which is why he was bummed. (Perfect Dark is so awesome though) They were trying multiple tactics to buy those all. Engaging in conversation to appear as a friend and then they try to agree if the seller values it to just keep it (they are banking on them changing their mind because it appears he doesnt want to buy it as much as he really does) This guy is really a sociopath. I'm glad that lady kept those games. The condition on them is really good.
There are some cool Genesis games there like Road Rash, Eternal Champions, and Streets of Rage, it's too bad they were bought by resellers instead of collectors who could have got a good deal on some nice games for their collections. Doing this has a parasitic impact on the retro gaming community because all it does is ultimately raise the price for someone who actually wants the games just because someone wanted to make money off of it. These guys aren't repairing or refurbishing anything, so they aren't adding anything of value to the items they're selling yet they still think they should be able to get money out of the process of getting a game from someone who wants part with something from a personal collection to someone who wants to add it to a personal collection. Entitled parasites is what these sleazy resellers are.
That is officially the norm now. I mean, that was an instant starter collection for any gamer who wanted Genesis stuff. You had NHL 94, SoR, SF II, Sonic 2. Some of the best.
Yeah dude it's a real shame. A lot of the popular CZcamsrs say that their content has grown the gaming community and that may be true to an extent. But it's grown with people interested in making a profit. Not to play the games.
@@steviefreakinc The Scum Fu masters seek disciples to stroke their egos and they go on creating a plague of reseller zombies who see games as dollar signs rather than something to be enjoyed.
While $10 does seem on the low end for that 360, it definitely pales in comparison to some of the stuff you showcase in your videos (that CEEDONUT video was first degree robbery). But tbh the Xbox 360 is the most donated console Ive ever seen. Not sure if it’s cause of the red ring issue or what but I see them regularly in thrift stores everywhere, usually in quantities, which means theres plenty of people out there willing to just give em away for $0 which is just wild to me, but I understand some people just view it as old/outdated tech. And if we're being honest here that one in the video looks like it was one spring cleaning away from getting yanked tf outta there and dropped off at Goodwill.. I was kinda surprised how fast that guy accepted 😅 On a random note tho, all this talk of 360 is making me wanna pull mine back out and play Bully Scholarship Edition. Not sure if you've played it but its a damn gem!
I am a Genny fanatic. Not a SINGLE mention on how cool the games are. “Terminator may be worth money.” Chucking NHL 94 like it isn’t the GOAT NHL game. This is why this retro community is broken. It isn’t about the goddamn games anymore. The nostalgia. The excitement to find the game in the wild, when in my case, I never had a chance to have it when I was I kid, or in his case, since he’s 12, saw it on CZcams and it looked cool.
Games are still about the fun to me man. And there's a lot of us out here that feel this way. These reseller channels are just business channels disguised as gaming content.
I can’t stand that. 40 bucks for a ps4 and he asked 30, BRO that’s a good deal I would have paid 40 for a ps4. This guy is ridiculous I hate how he was complaining about the n64 games too. Like the games the girl was willing to sell I would have taken those Bc I don’t have them and I would wanna play with them.
Seeing your wrestling poster takes me back I used to watch in the days of The Hardy Boys, Kane, Undertaker, RVD etc Kane's entrance is my favourite moment of all time
Heres what pisses me off with resellers in general... they all have this opinion where just because someone is having a yard sale or selling at a flea market , they have to sell things at absurdly low prices. That is BS. For instance im looking for Majoras Mask....if i see it for $40 at a yard sale im all over it BECAUSE I WANT IT. When you rely on people basically giving things away to make a living you got problems.
Anytime I sell on marketplace, I do in the middle, good deal if someone wants it but not worth while to resellers unless really desperate for a 20% profit lol
Yikes.. this is just greedy.. sucks that these people aren't bargaining to build a collection for themselves, but merely to keep that profit margin as wide as possible. If I ever decide to sell bits of my collection, I always sell them to friends for a heavy discount.
Diamond Theory getting mad that collectors not wanting to sale their games and keeping them in their closet, yet he makes money from collectors who do the same shit. The hypocrisy is rich with this guy. LOL
sadly the n64 lady still got ripped off. I watched the video. She ends up selling a bunch of gamecube games, a wavebird, bunch of gameboy games, pokemon blue, a gameboy, and some zelda manuals for $75. Rip
@@steviefreakinc yeah its pretty scummy. especially on his page he claims its not his job to inform people of the value of their items. So he's knowingly taking advantage of people and is proud of it. Pure scum
These types of people ruining the hobby by the daily it’s sad, even to find shit for my own collection… (consoles, controllers, games) it’s a fortune it’s sad really it is, keep making these videos please they’re great and these types of people deserve it to be 💩 on
I thought it was very disrespectful when diamond theories friend said that she’s probably not gonna play it anyway when she wanted to keep her N64 stuff.
The way these guys talk about the money they will make from the games, might as well call them video game burglars. Highway robbery with how little they offer in return.
@@steviefreakincthe reason why they continue to ask for more stuff after receiving a good deal, is because it pulls their attention off of the items they have in their hands. It’s a technique that I use. We don’t want people changing their mind on us. Amateur though…
@@FallenGeminithey definitely sell for more than the launch models for that reason. Pretty sure the original models have some kind of inherent hardware failure that practically guarantees that they will red ring at some point.
CZcams resellers has created more resellers than ever. People don't realize how many resellers there are. I live in a small, small ass city and still see people scanning things at yard sales. It's insane. Toys is a whole other level that you may not have covered or understood. Since they are a bit hard to find anyways, people are always grabbing new toys in stores. There are still sonic toys I have never found cause resellers go and grab them any time they hit the pegs (cream, Infinite, Chaos) I literally have been to stores 40 times and never got some of the action figures, same for batman keaton action figure. I still don't have the keaton and I am a very avid action figure collector. New toys is worse than games in many ways, of course any game with value posted on ebay, fb etc is snatched up super fast if it's cheap. You'll never see them.
I deal with the Toy resellers/scalpers all of the time man. I buy wrestling figures and never find them in the wild. Have to buy them with slight markups from a FB group I'm in. Honestly don't mind a small markup there because those guys are good people and not there to rip your throat out. They're not the guys buying the cases before they hit the sales floor or anything like that either. They just get luckier than me in the wild.
@@steviefreakinc I see that some recent wrestling figures have went up a lot like the MOTU Undertake from 2020. I really hate toy hunting these days. I enjoyed it in the late 90's up to 2012 before I stopped. Anything I wanted was in stores and it was just an issue if I had enough funds to get them or not. Lot's of large cool Star Wars things as well and at decent prices, especially compared to now. If it isn't the price ripping my hole it is not being able to get them at all anyways.
The video game reselling scheme can't possibly hold for much longer... at this point it's dudes basically selling back and forth to each other with their "bulk" trades or deals... a true reseller is out to find the "end user/buyer"...these dudes buy then load their car up with boxes of shit to drive half way across the country to trade with another guy who also has boxes of shit...and then the cycle repeats itself... you have to wonder how much of this stuff is actually getting to a true end buyer....
I have seen literally every new Sonic figure EXCEPT for Infinite. Of course that's the one I actually want (not a big Sonic collector anymore but I used to be).
you should not be exsposing people man i check out your channel UNLESS you have a twitch channel too defend your self when will you do lets plays ? you know i am happy of not doing these exsposed videos it means nothing and i check your twitch and youtube you barley have any lets plays i would like too see lets play content from you
I’m glad that dickscrub didn’t get his hands on that n64 and golden treasure chest of games props to those people for keeping their childhood console
Bro when he told him he couldnt sell those anywhere else made me lose my mind lol. Great video as always Steve.
