Buying a 50 year-old Hobby Shop - Part 2

Flexispot Desks and more: amzn.to/3vQxZkb
We appreciate you checking out our sponsors, it helps us out, and our goal is to help you out!
We went back to visit Hobby Shop Ron, a man who owned a Hobby Shop for 54 years. Last month, we agreed to purchase everything he has remaining, which happens to be hundreds of boxes filled with vintage trains, model cars, toys, old bb guns, and so much more. Everything we get will serve as great inventory for my reselling business, where I sell on eBay, Amazon, and Whatnot.

We REALLY thought we'd be able to get his entire Man-Cave in this video, but since we couldn't, I GUESS you'll have to subscribe and come back for the next video ;) We love visiting Ron, and he has even MORE surprises for us already for when we go back.

[@Whirliesmadness3411]

I dig that you keep your faith involved in your business. That is why I enjoy your videos. You’re blessed to get this opportunity of buying & selling video games and it’s a blessing in itself that it takes care of your family as well. Love the channel, Chase. Keep it up.

[@tropicalflipper]

Any vinyl records you come across I’ll buy them all

[@ghostcardsandcollectables]

That Boba Fett is not cheap it's very rare because of the rocket firing feature and kids shooting their eyes out it got recalled . So it's extremely rare to find on card . Also extremely rare to find complete with the rocket as many as missing it.

[@turmogames]

The end of the series surely has to be that Ron is just Chase from the future, and he’s just buying everything again to resell.

[@rockc1784]

Ah yes, I believe what you are referring to is the CATRP Paradox. Chase and crew will continue buying everything from "Future Chase" aka Ron, until they have perfected the art of Reselling, and they can pass that knowledge on to the rest of us through this KZbin channel.

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

Shhh don’t tell them. You’ll mess with the fabric of space time.

[@GrimMetropolis]

🤣🤣

[@LewWagerly-ik2qt]

Butterfly effect man....be careful chase.

[@boofarama]

Ron is a National Treasure. The stories, jokes, and his overall character is so pure. When the time comes where you aren't buying from him anymore, I hope you stay in touch with him. Looking forward to the next video!

[@tbeerens123]

Perhaps even invite him to check your new barn that he made it possible to finance :D

[@MrBUYaLOT]

This buy is going to change your whole career as a reseller. This is the point where you go from specializing in one category, to many categories. Game changer. Happy for you and the guys. Very Nice.

[@kurdt_patrick]

When Ron speaks, you listen. He’s passing down history, with that knowledge he’s acquired. Not many left like him. I hope when your barn is finished, you bring him by to see it. Just my .02 cents.

[@patsykirkpatrick6062]

Ron is awesome and he loves you guys you can tell he has a connection with you guys.

[@Frosty2014]

Ron is such an incredible guy!! God bless you Ron!!! Thanks for all the great content!!

[@AkinaSpeedStarsAE86]

@25:15 the important question is, "does the Boba Fett missile fire?!?"

[@J0hnnyTheKid]

Find me a Ron. Super gentleman, great personality. A gem for sure. Congratulations.

[@ScrubbersGhost]

Ron and the entire set of videos is so wholesome

[@adrianstokes9853]

Ron is the Man he has been there and done that ! And that is why he is so cool.

[@lionelplunkett9428]

Wow wow wow what a find all them Lionel trains and Ron is a legend I'm pretty sure Ron new how much his collection was worth so don't sell it to cheap it's all GOLD gentleman

[@becreative2461]

You make this old gentleman very happy now he can enjoy his retirement fully

[@mhaubrich07]

I would buy those D&D books so quick! Such a cool find.

[@valentine4238]

Set goes for 2k usd on ebay

[@danphelps8865]

You were blessed to meet this individual... He is a true man and very nice.. Glad to see these interactions with Ron and your team..

[@jeffcole1914]

Theres a bond there its great that you were able to foster that relationdhip he may have gotten more joy than the value of the money. I hope he stays a part of your life in some way a long time. I Have a gentleman here who had a resale shop several acres and his son and daughter predeceased him now he closed up the doors and now its just wasting away. He is just sick and tired😞

[@chaicharin]

This is better then any show on TV. Great job guys.

[@num1booger]

that was fun for this 61 year old fella, boy oh boy, memory lane for me. thanks for the video, newest subscriber here. Blessings to you young man

[@JRPGLife]

Ron seems like such a fun guy to be around! These videos are insane! Keep them coming!

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

He definitely is!!! Thanks for watching and commenting. You guys are awesome. I hope to be able to meet in person at a con some day!

[@JRPGLife]

@@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice man we NEED to go garage sailing together someday 😀

[@Isthatchicken01]

Ron seems like a cool guy, definitely knows his stuff and giving Chase a run for his money (literally). Can't wait for part 3!

[@kimhumbach3756]

Ron is adorable! How amazing that you were able to meet him and buy his treasures.

[@mbe102]

Dude, honest suggestion, I would make a series where this guy just tells stories. Sort of like a Podcast. Because the stuff he's seen and done is something none of us will have had time to experience, and it'd be great to hear this stories.

[@Nathanfx2006]

27:00 those official Nintendo protective cases are so nice, never seen them before I'm more excited by that compared to what's inside.

[@lastinglovelegacy2454]

Something that may help help next time is store 2x4, and or 2x8 sheets of cardboard and or luan, preferably to use as slip sheets between stacks of boxes keeping things level and supported to stack higher. When used you can pull boxes out from bottom without the full stacks weight on bottom box.

[@robertfarrar6212]

The original Gary Gygax D&D books are so cool! A+!

[@steo-red408]

Shout out from Liverpool UK, loving your videos with Ron,

[@Druiditup]

Still can’t believe you got the game barn and the hobby shop! Amazing!

[@BigCheeseThrifts]

My jaw has yet to retract. Wow not only the quality of the items is insane, but the quality of Ron himself is Top Tier.

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

He’s a legend.

[@montylc2001]

I did something similar a few months back, but on a MUCH smaller scale. Local hobby store closed down, it specialized in radio control planes and cars, but had other items like model rockets and plastic model kits. After it shut down I made an appointment to buy a couple of model paint racks and store display cabinets. While there I noticed he still had all the model rockets and plastic kits. I offered him a thousand dollars for them all...400 items total...he accepted. Over the course of 3 months I sold them all on Ebay and made a 6 thousand dollar profit.

[@Torralbae1]

More of a collector than a reseller but I really enjoy your content. You are the most authentic reseller I've found and aren't manufacturing scenarios for content. Your crew has inspired me to up my reselling to better fund my collecting. That has been the goal for a while but feel like you have unique and specific ideas to really make it more consistent. If I do decide to commit more time and effort, you're Discord is the 1st place I'd look to go. Wish you guys continued success.

[@edpoell2876]

Wow Ron is still kicking which is fabulous because I thought your first run with him was Ron 's swan song where he'd be trying to get the best deal before he was gone.

[@retropapa3821]

You guys are killing it with the content and purchases I been watching your videos since the beginning you guys always seem to amaze me every time great content never boring and always surprised what you find.

[@bigshothippy]

Man Ron is definitely my most favorite guy who you guys bought from. It just keeps coming. Awesome items in superb shape! I love it! Great video guys. Looking forward to the next one showing what you guys unearth from Ron. Well done!!!!

[@brianlund3125]

I grew up 2 doors down from the Hartland Plastics factory. I used to find old broken statues. Most of the baseball statues are worth the most money. But those Hartland statues are worth big money no matter what subject matter they are. It was cool to see some Hartland stuff. The factory was on Maple Ave right next to the railroad tracks in Hartland if you ever wanted to look up where the factory was. I grew up at 236 maple Ave and they were 2 doors to the south.

[@thriftersifter]

Your editing is great. Top notch video👌🏻Crazy all that stuff. I’m probably going to be like that when I’m older. Lol

[@Katwoman4318]

Thanks for all the hard work & fun. Really nice time watching you guys.

[@petergallman1279]

I liked when he said Don´t worry, you´ll get it all in the last video. Now I am eagerly awaiting part 3. :D

[@stormycannon8904]

What a gem of time,all the fun In the boxes 📦 mind boggling.👍🏻🙀

[@normangage6953]

I can't wait to see the details. That is a great buy. You will be seeing that stuff for years.

[@ultimobean]

I had to subscribe, it sad to see the hobby shop go outta business but glad to see someone appreciating the collection.

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

For sure. He actually sold the building in 2017 and kept all the inventory for “retirement”… though he still does coin shows almost every weekend and works harder than most people I know lol

[@MafeRB]

Love Ron, definitely that’s a Chase after 50 years. Lovely. Keep it up guys, a lot of hard work to do. Looking forward for the next video!

[@jjonjohnson6440]

Trains! And games! A two-for-one combo. Thanks for the awesome content. I’m looking forward to what’s next on this adventure.

[@jakesells2379]

Those old D&D books are pretty awesome.

[@DestinieB]

Love your content, Ron is the man! I hope you continue to visit him even after you finally clear out all the units. He seems like a good coffee friend, the stories he’d tell!

[@bdthepirate]

Ron never disappoints! Can't wait to see the next video!

[@nickhathaway7960]

I started going crazy when I saw those original D&D books at about 10 minutes in. I would love to have those

[@MJPquest119]

I literally look forward every week to these episodes. A great job again guys another one in the books.

[@wesleytyrer5222]

I just sold the D&D Blackmoore book for $110.00 at Gencon, collectors love the older D&D books.

[@scottrogala9055]

Man I love these videos! Thanks for filming all these moments Chase. It’s like we are there with you experiencing this ourselves. Great pickups!!!

[@WMARUoriginal]

This is such a fantastic series. The hobby shop buy is such a life changing event that, along with the game barn, is taking your business and life to a new level.

[@TheCombatartist]

You all seem like a bunch of nice guys, I hope your futures are bright and profitable with this venture!

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

Thank you!

[@markbehr88]

Ron seems like a hell of a nice guy.

[@Lemming1970]

What an awesome video, Ron is awesome..

[@purplenohands3827]

Was looking forward to this since the first video of this hobby shop purchase. Now that you will go there one more time it hypes me even more. Great stuff from what you showed so far and I am curios on the upcoming videos with more detailed unboxing. Keep up guys !!

[@Groglor]

A ton of rich guys from the States come up north to where I live in western Ontario. Just to fish for muskies and walleye. They have huge nice boats, Wouldnt doubt some would collect those old lures.

[@EverydayDesigner]

dam son the orginal dungeon and dragons books! Its good to see him kinda pass on the torch, im sure he had fun running his store.

[@neggispringfeild]

The entire time I was wondering when I'd see vintage D&D stuff....I'm a big vintage D&D collector

[@reid4028]

Great intro again guys! Good luck with the sales!

[@marcos_midtakes]

Man what a collection! Just insane.

[@minishaw280]

My friend has all the boxes for his n64 games as he would open them and store the boxes in a cupboard in a bigger box ! They all look brand new!! Legit has all the classics cookers bad fur day, ocarina, golden eye etc

[@Bacardibatman]

Fantastic, Ron comes up trumps again. I Got a Neo geo pocket + 3 games this week for peanuts from a charity shop ( ✅one off my list to find) sold it earlier today to local shop to help pay for my car to be fixed

[@Samw1seGamegee]

The Caterpie drawer at 5:50 😂😂 Let’s goooooooo

[@FleischmannMVD]

Chase is doing a brilliant thing with these videos. Wouldn’t be shocked if by the end the audience catches sight of something slipping under Ron and Chase’s noses

[@HTXVintageVibes]

Just sold the dungeons and dragons grey hawk book you had on top. It’s part of the series that was based on stranger things. Not 100% on all the details but def something to look into. We had naught a huge box full of old first edition stuff a few months back. Priced it high and sold slow but consistent. Condition matters, just like anything else. Also some editions have pages/ info others don’t do the same book could be worth waaay more or less based on specific prints ect.

[@Lochnivar]

Got any left?

[@NaturalAnimalKG]

Shoutout to Ron, my spirit animal!

[@flippingparents4736]

Please hire Ron and have him in every video!

[@trippyhits8596]

Excited to see what you do with the fishing stuff!

[@Pizzle48994]

I’ve been watching since the beginning, you guys are awesome. Glad your so successful.

[@Ghost_SniperAirsoft]

Any old airsoft guns? That box of N64 games MY GOD! So nice Conkers being the best one in my eyes.

[@scratchthrift3370]

When I go to bed at night I dream of barns like those! Like literally…. I had one last week haha

[@mojave_ronin]

A Whatnot auction with Ron would be awesome.

[@collinf9334]

Incredible. Lots of work ahead of you, keep up the grind!

[@Colin_ebay_2023]

Really great video guys again. Crazy seeing the growth of the channel!

[@G_Regzofficial]

Legend Ron T-shirts coming soon.

[@dejaeviz]

as soon as that Vintage D&D hit the screen, i literally SCREAMED OHHHHHHHHHHH !! at the screen ! :D LOL !!!!

[@mattcoogan7869]

Great vid. I'm going to check the link for n scale railroad cars and buildings. Your respect to that gentleman was very refreshing to see. liking & subscribing. Have a good day sir.

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

Thank you so much!

[@dwfinds3030]

Poor guy ever since he came on board its all loading heavy trucks haha :) All this is going in here...yup. Always great to watch. I feel like chases next hire is going to look more like the rock.

[@buggy659]

Wow it keeps coming!!

[@adventurecoats]

I have loved every minute of this! I can't wait to see what you come up with next week!

[@TheDementation]

That D&D stuff is so rare ive never even seen one for real or even listed.

[@tiffanyadams3209]

My husband works in the old Kenner plant that is now Kellogg’s.

[@tomlindgren9547]

Ron is right about the vintage D&D stuff

[@Mikeofindy]

I hope Ron lives another 84 freaking years.. AWESOME RON!!!

[@clintonneuhaus1818]

Incredible video guys!

[@kokhen]

Chase is the man! 👏🔥

[@joec2818]

Great video. I have that Darth Vader case and wish I had all those figures. Ron is the best.

[@robdogg9156]

Another awesome video thanks chase

[@scottmccauslin3489]

Would love to see the fishing lures! I have bit of knowledge in that realm. I'm in Midland, Mich.....

[@peterzilinger32]

I can't wait to video three comes out

[@seanmurphy1752]

I had that Game Gear bag and all those games back in the day. If Jurassic Park was one of those games I wonder if my old bag ended up there after my mom gave it to a random family member.

[@authorjohnwquinn]

Take your time with all that fishing gear - some of those lures can go for serious money. Congratulations!

[@skylarwattie]

Ron is my spirit animal.

[@garydeml4740]

Great show !!

[@kensummoner9771]

Amazing journey

[@ericmauch6282]

You gotta do a story telling/ interview series w Ron.

[@mickeysimmons6310]

I'd be interested in that vintage DND

[@donnytucker]

Ron's hilarious haha. Epic buy for sure!

[@all_kaps]

Antique fishing lures can be big $$$ - I've come across them here in WI quite a bit. Problem is the people usually know that they are money. I'll be curious to see the updates on what you get for those.

[@neilthehermit4655]

Early D & D,early Barbie stuff... Can be very valuable. The fishing gear,highly collectable to the right person. All need to be priced carefully to see the best return on the cost.

[@CKJJ88]

So awesome 😎 can't wait for the next video on this
