These Mystery PS4 Games Cost $300 on eBay: Was It Worth It?
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 04. 2021
- It sounded like a good idea, but then again PS4 games are finally coming down to really affordable prices. I found an eBay listing for 30 random PS4 games for $300 total. I decided to buy it and show you all what I got! And let me tell you: there's cases, box art, and discs. All of which speak to every fiber of my 'collector' being. Though we might take a rest on the random lots for awhile after this one, we'll soon dive into the world of legacy game collecting and see just how costly that will get. Stay tooned.

"I don't think these videos will go on much longer, they're getting kinda worn out" aw man, I actually really love these.
Same. ): I hope he continues them.
I agree I enjoy them too. This sorry lot probably turned him off doing anymore 😂
They will for ps5 games :)
Same I love these
Me too
He should make some videos on his shelf. We know why he's collecting but we never get to see it.
yep, we need a collection update.
He probably has multiple shelf's given the volume of stuff he has. I mean outside the one we can clearly see part of in videos. I would like a vid going through his library of physical media myself 😅. Given it gives that nostalgic feeling window shopping or my old family house that stored thousands of VHS tapes...
Anyone know where I can find a good to solid PS VIta game lot?
I tried lookin' for it on ebay but either the game lots aren't interesting or they are under an auction. :(
Why is he collecting? I’m guessing it’s because it holds value and it will sell for quite some money in the future, is that the reason?
@@Mentque I wanna know too
I feel like this was a gamestop employee side hustling on ebay.
Sounds like a chad
I was thinking that or someone bought a bunch of cheap games during GameStop's half-off sale and then sold them as a random lot.
@@GorTheMovieGod all these games sell retail for like 10 bucks he got scammed
@@eastofwarden no bro few game in last week is valu maxim 4 pounds per one .When don't have knowledge, can buy bulk (serve)like ca blind .On line few is free 🤣🤣🤣
@@cyberfighter75 uhh English?
can you do a video showcasing your entire ps4 collection?
I would like to see his entire collection!
That would be lit
A roomtour would be cool
Let's not forget that the Nintendo switch is outselling the ps5
@@sonicfan101sonic6 okay but what does that to do with op’s comment
The seller lied in the description just to get you to fall for it and you did. They just bought a bunch of stuff at GameStop for really cheap and then sold it to you for more.
Yeah that anthem copy went for 2 dollars brand new at GameStop not too long ago, a lot of these pre owned games go for buy 4 9.99 games for 20 as well
This is litterally what I was thinking the entire time lol
Yea and price charting isn't even the most reliable price tracker these days.
Almost all the games here in Gamepass ultimate
Yeah these are like $5 games max
As a former GS employee I can say the sleeves are a common practice. The sleeves are used to store discs that have their cases on display in the store. White sleeves are for New games and yellow sleeves are for pre owned. Depending on the employee they do just put the sleeve in the case for a timely checkout.
You should never open a NEW game and sell it as NEW
@@Mcbebblestin the point is to prevent people from picking the games off the shelf and running out with them. the game still is new as long as it's never been played, even if it's not sealed.
@@babyboomertwerkteam5662 Anything that’s been opened is no longer considered new, and that’s why I never buy new games from gamestop. If I were to go to Best Buy or any retailer and buy a game, I could only return it if I never opened it, otherwise they won’t take it back
@@Mcbebblestin I don’t recall anyone asking.
@@Mcbebblestin "anything that’s been opened is no longer considered new" - to you. you are not everyone.
That dude must’ve been so stoked to get rid of this junk and bank $300
Tbh a lot of them are good games they probably add up to atleast 250
As soon as he opened that box, "yeah im already seeing crap"

@@eternaya If you have an internet connection you can launch any game with a dead CMOS battery.
@@selfhelp9685 if they keep the servers up, they literally just shut down the ps3 servers
@@michaelmillington5601 But who is actually still playing on PS3 servers? The PS3 came out 14 years ago, most users have moved on. The PS3 doesn't generate money for them to warrant keeping the servers alive, while the PS4 will likely stay alive longer because money can and will be coming in considering you have to have PS+ for online gaming. Also, it becomes less of an issue if PS5 becomes backwards compatible with the PS4 library
@@HarryOsborneAS31 They'll probablt eventually do the same to the PS4 like they did to the PS3. And the Xbox 360 came out one year before the PS3 but the server still up

@@Dick_Valparaiso true...and i thought my game collection was shit
4:44 if these codes weren't used before then they sure are now
Lol
The stuff in white sleeves is new and yellow is pre-owned. The codes are in the white sleeves so that when they gut the cases they make sure the codes don't get stolen for that copy when someone buys it.
I order from GameStop now and then and usually when I order a used game they put it in one of those envelopes so it doesn't become loose and bounce around in the case.
Actually a good idea. I've ordered a couple games off of eBay recently, and they will arrive loose. Still work and are fine, but still. It's nice when someone takes just a few extra seconds to ensure things aren't potentially getting even more damaged than they need to be.
@@wrenegade2638 I've had some seller put some bubble wrap in the case to prevent that. Main issue with eBay is it's just a matter of how much the seller cares about that sort of thing.
@@michellelesmell Yeah that's the toughest part. A lot of times I"ll check their store and try to buy from people who seem to "get" video games (or collectibles in general). Often times they're the ones with a tad higher selling price though.
Please don't stop the random game lots... they are so fun to watch when you get like 5 of the same game :D
I’ve waited my whole life for another one of these videos
Boring life?
@@LiceDuhaPRODUCTIONS ITS A JOKE
@@LiceDuhaPRODUCTIONS You are boring
@@LiceDuhaPRODUCTIONS 🤷🏾♂️
Oh no don't stop these videos, they are some of my favorite content on the channel. It is always great to hear your thoughts on the games that you get in the lots.
I’d love to see you start showing legacy stuff and doing videos about that. I’ve really been into GameCube recently, but you’re right, prices are crazy.
5:35
"I don't really think we're gonna be doing these videos for much longer because it's getting kinda played out."
Keep doing them, I never get tired of these random lots. I never buy random lots myself but I love watching these vids.
Nintendo is still better tho
You should definitely do a Game Room Tour video, showcasing your entire collection and the aesthetics of the room in general
For the sleeves in the case, when they gut games to put cases on the wall, sometimes the employee is in a rush and just puts the sleeved disc in the case. Also, sometimes they do it to protect the disc from cracking on the inside hole (only affects 360 and Wii in my experience).
Absolutely love these vids Mystic, and hope you do continue the random lots, even though I wasn't particularly pleased with this one. Think it was asking far too much, and ps4 has so many niche titles that would make up for a better valued/or simply more interesting lot. Though I do understand that may have been even more expensive.
But totally down for you going for some legacy titles to change things up.
Games stay in the sleeve when stores do RSBs. Its GameStop's weekly Store to Store transfers to help balance store inventories. So when you have to transfer one of your last 2 copies in your store the game in the sleeve just gets put into the game case. Hopefully that helps. -From a former store manager thanks for the videos

I always love when you do these videos. I would love a collection update if you seem like doing one. Cheers mate
YES! I was just sitting in first period thinking I hope mystic uploads today. 🤣

I love these videos!! If you can still find it enjoyable and affordable for yourself to continue these, please do
I loveee just regular pickup videos. Not many people do them anymore, keen to see what rad older games you've been getting :)
It's really inspiring to see how much you care for others. Thank you.
Always enjoy watching these videos of yours, Ryan. And definitely the occasional appearance by Melissa, too!
The paper sleeve is typically how they store the games in their inventory cabinet when it’s the only/last copy, so that they can put the case on the shelf. Normally, they take it out of the sleeve and put it in the case, but some associates just shove the sleeve in the case.
10:53 That is exactly what is happening. A customer brings up the empty case and the employee goes and gets the disc in the sleeve. They are literally that lazy they won't open the sleeve and put the disc inside the case.
Thank you for making these videos... You're my go to for PlayStation news each and every week 👍🏼👊🏼
This is what I wanted to see right now. Thank u 😊
Nooo these videos are going to slow down? These are my favorites and I'm pretty sure it's the way I found you being in my recommended.
Those GameStop stickers gave me flashbacks to back in the day, those things used to be the absolute worst
Honestly i've been watching your videos for a long time, I love the random lots and when you add a new system to the collection! A pick ups video would be cool but pleaseeee keep around the random lots lol
That was actually very nice of you, Ryan. Good stuff!
please never stop doing these videos we love them! they arent worn out for us
You mean for us baby
Girl Ur fine 🤩
cmon, ya sum weirdos 😭
@@SavageStarlite7 I don't keep up with my comments so I didn't see these before now , but my god they nasty the fuck
@@coolstuffaboutlife ain't nobodys baby
Been a while since one of these, they are so fun for some reason 😂
Kudos. Good plan, cannot wait to see what legacy games you find.
Yes. The case and box art are displayed on the shelf and the disc and sleeve are stored in a drawer in alphabetical by system. When a customer wants to buy the game, they bring the game case to the counter and the employee gets the sleeved game from the drawer. They then insert it into the case.
As someone that works at Gamestop, I don't really ever include the yellow envelopes since thats what the cases are for, but if a customer wants it then I'll give it to them. With the dlc, if it's new then we put the game in the sleeves with the dlc codes since we want to prevent customers just opening the cases and getting the dlc free. Hope that answers the questions!
7:33 I remember buying a used copy of Fallout 4 GOTY, I was furious to find out that the DLCs came on a one-time redeem code. Really a trashy move by Bethesda.
Former gamestop employee here. The paper sleeve thing is what they use to store their gutted games in drawers, ship loose disks (within or without cases sometimes) and occasionally sell disks in if a). The store ran out of blue ray cases b.) The store already had a bunch of copies of that game and they got shipped more so they just put it in the drawer without removing the shipping sleeve from the disk
These are my favorite videos you make. Please don't stop!
There's absolutely no way those games are worth $310 😂🤣🤣
Wouldn't pay $125 for half of that
Yup, took a loss on those. Many of the games are either super old or sell for a few bucks at most.
@@AlexYs03 I don't think that website where he priced them is accurate
Ikr a lot trash games in there
@@spark3395 eBay definitely sold listings
Yes new video! And it’s a eBay one yay one of my favorite
I love these videos! I know you only have so much space to put them and I don't want you to lose money either!!! I understand! I'm happy to watch whatever you post (:
This unboxing was pretty good a lot of solid games in the mystery box!
Overall amazing video 👍🏼
I was expecting games like Persona 5 royal, sekiro, Ghost of tsuhima, Red dead redemption 2 atleast with 300$ price tag
Man i was expecting the exclusives
Yes!! I’m so ready for this!
Keep doing these! My favourite of your videos!
Love to see what the collection looks like Mystic
I want a video on why you have Hannah Montana proudly on your shelf haha
Look up his video where he gave his friend $100 to buy him games, it's there

@@W0mbRaider I would agree, but it’s a DS game if I remember right haha
@@omargh18 gotcha
I love these series and the fact you decided to buy from someone who is in need made it even more cool. Well done sir 👏
8:27 they have those disc sleeve things only for when they keep them behind the counter, but sometimes they leave it in the game case for whatever reason. It’s happened a few times where I got it.
Love these videos. I think the whole game disc in an envelope inside a case thing is new at GameStop. They used to do one or the other not both.
I have no idea why but I absolutely adore these type of videos.
رب
13:02 tell me about it.
I've started picking up some ps3 games on ebay, and browsing local listing apps. Some good deals out there, especially locally in my area. People have put up some bundles of 25+ ps3 games for anywhere from 75 to 100$ (with minimal sports games).
love your channel man keep it going
I actually love these videos so much. But, you know, if you're not feeling these videos anymore, you do you!
Not many people know the manual is usually (Not always) available digitally when you click options on the game you wish to play.
i did not
Can we get a video on your entire collection of games. That would be a cool video/series to see.

@@laurabrown3508 stfu
Yes its a common practice. Although they slowed down with putting the loose disc in the yellow sleeve into the box art.
It only happens when its the last copy and you find the case on the wall. Or if you're shopping for a last gen game (ps3, 360, wii titles)
I really like this videos! Keep up the good work.
In response to you saying you may not do many more of these videos:
I thoroughly enjoy your unboxing collections and would still watch every single one! I do hope that you personally feel you get a good value out of doing them too. But thanks for the content regardless!
Wargroove is amazing. It's like a spiritual successor to Advance Wars
I love this kind of vids I love them so much thanks mystic guess no vid tomorrow but thanks man.
These videos are amazing! Please keep making them
Cmon Ryan what is this like the 7th one of these videos? Do you really think we’re just gonna keep watching them because you would be absolutely correct lol ❤️
I think the seller must have bought a lot of the games from GameStop with one of their 4 for $20 deals and then listed them on eBay for Mystic to buy. I legit do not think the seller actually needed to “sell his collection for bills, etc”. I love these videos so keep them coming but I think Mystic got sold on a lie, I would like to see the amount they are worth to what was paid.
no please keep doing these videos love them so much who cares if it’s been played out - it’s your channel if you love what you film keep filming it bro you’re good at what you do!
Please don't stop these! I just discovered youuu
They don’t have GameStop here (anymore) but I’m thinking they might package them like that so they don’t fall out of the ‘push holder’ in shipping
The fact that you even got games from eBay makes me think that it's worth it. I got scammed on the other hand lmao
Get your money back dawg
What; did you buy a Nintendo Switch for $50? If the price is too good to be true; it is. Also check their feedback. Don't buy things with stock images.
@HanTheMan ughhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh tooo risky
8:00
lol yes it's common practice for the games to be put in yellow sleeves inside the box. It makes sense with 2 disc games that don't have the case with the 2 disc holders.
But other than that I guess they keep it in there because otherwise they just pitch them.
I find them handy to keep my loose copies in until I buy some blank cases or the original cases.
I worked at GameStop and yes we would store the cases by themselves so they would stay nice in the back room and put them in those little sleeves in the drawers behind the cash registers for easy access and yes we would also store the download codes in those sleeves so they might still possibly work
God dame it, go and play that Dragon age: Inquisition ....it's a must play.
Yeah GameStop puts the games in those yellow packages for some reason and let me tell ya there’s always a brief moment of panic when I don’t see the disc and then the dang yellow packet falls around lol
Nooooo keep doing these types of videos I always look forward to them it gives me ideas what I wanna do with my collection💙
finally! i have been waiting months for another one of these videos!!!
You’re videos are so soothing to watch. If I’m stressed out I’m coming here.
Damn, Mystic got gyped big time with this lot! Slow burn man.
These are my favorite videos from you!
Great video, this series is great keep
It up
I don't think they needed to pay off loans; may have been a selling point, looks like he's selling on gamestops overstock/dump?
That loans description hit close to home ffs😭hope they're sorted now
Fr shit sucks. I haven't bought a new game in a hot minute
Let's not forget the switch is outselling the ps5
@@sonicfan101sonic6 What?! Lol ... what are you going on about?
@@sonicfan101sonic6 ps5 has a lot less sales because of the cpu crisis dumbass. Everyone knows that if there was no cpu crisis then the sales would be crazy high. Even after several months there’s still millions of people who are trying to get the ps5 but they just don’t have the luck
@@sonicfan101sonic6 While the switch is outselling the ps5 the ps5 is all sold out and there is a shortage of semiconductors which is why.
Finally fixed the motion graphics. Looks great! I seriously love these random game-lot vids.
Edit: Just finished the vid. You got burnt on this one! Too many online only titles, generic cases/loose copies, and only the one sealed!
So I used to work at a gamestop and it was common practice to put the codes in the sleeves for new copies of games so they weren’t left in the cases used as display cases for anyone to find and use. Gamestop just takes one copy of a game stores the disc in a sleeve slaps a sticker on the case and puts it on the shelf.
So nobody is gonna talk about how Ryan never showed us the posters for Disney Infinity. Triggered my OCD so hard
Yes me too I love posters it was the only thing I wanted to see in this video.
The guy of eBay is a sneaky seller you got ripped.
Please do video's on PS3, PSP and PS Vita games you recommend. Would be good to hear your thought's. Please do another video on your game room or favourite items in your collection. Great video as always Ryan! :)
Former Shift lead or SGA from GameStop. If we get a new game, one copy has to be gutted so we can put the box on the store floor. We’ll take the game and codes and put them in sleeve and keep it in the drawers with the other sealed new games. That gutted copy will be sold last usually. And if you have an issue with the gutted copy we used to give a 10% shopworn discount.
As for used games, yellow sleeve, just sitting in a case. Usually we would have to send out games in package to other stores or the warehouse. We’d grab the case, just put the sleeved game in there, and send it. Because we expect the other GameStop to either put it on the shelf or in the back cases.
Isn't Battleborn worthless now they've turned the servers off?
Yep
Good source of ps4/5 cases tho
the game in the envelopes is because they are kept behind the front desk to avoid stealing while the case is left out on the retail floor with no game in it
Not an excuse for when they put the game in the case though. Those lazy bums only need 2 seconds of their lives to take it out of the sleeve & in the case
But minimum wage equals minimal work right?
@@xDeadEye1 well im sure retail sucks i been there not trying to defend them ,never liked gamestop realy and i dont realy care about the envelope but i hate the gamestop sleeves instead of the original sleeves when they sell it used
Literally my favourite thing on this channel
Really love these videos.
Let’s Sing Country literally says $4.99
Ryan: +$13.35
🤷🏻♂️
Yea you can buy it new from GameStop for $5, or $10 for the game and 2 mics. I got it 3 months ago.
Gamestop rarely Updates its prices. Some $2-5 games are like 20 on other places by now. While their $30 3ds games are more like $10
They only Update once they realy realize a pricechange.. like all gamecube games by now
Mystic I had ordered a NEW copy of god of war from gamestop, this was 2 years ago ish, and they sent me an unwrapped god of war case, with the game inside a sleeve, and the sleeve had the sticker on it labeled as “NEW”
I work at an ebgames in canada, we do leave disks in the paper sleeve and always take them out on sale. Unless a customer calls to put something on hold we either take the disk out and leave the paper sleeve inside or just leave the disk in the sleeve and in the case, just incase people dont come pick it up, so sometimes it gets sold with out us thinking of the sleeve.
Love these type of videos
