You passed up that Backbreaker game for PS3, that's a $20 football game kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3S7ZImvfrOAfc0

[@OnlyDadsOG]

Can anyone tell me where this flea market is located and what days its open? I'm heading to LA/Hollywood in october and would love to check this out in person if its still going. I will miss these episodes Pat. We love you man.

[@illrobbzilla]

The passed around g1 TF box was intriguing but he seemed to know what he had. Next coolest was the SotE fett vs ig-88

[@TanookiBobDylan]

SPORTS!

[@flacoschiavi2843]

once i found a very ugly nes guide , wasnt worth it. naaaah , love to you pat! thanks for this return to flee market madness!

[@MarshallFlores]

Holy crap a FMM episode that was actually filmed within a couple of months of posting? It’s a belated Christmas miracle Charlie Brown!

[@distractedFreek]

Yeah he mentioned that he lost the last chunk of old footage he was gonna use for the last few FMM.

[@cavifax]

165 bucks for a bootleg, WATA hire this man.

[@kaio0777]

i know i die a bit inside no joke

[@MsBee]

Frank was missed. The GI Joe market is absurd for some figures. And that Castle Grayskull from the 200x/MYP He-Man cartoon is pretty sought-after. And I can't believe that guy has not heard of Tommy T! He must live under a rock! Thanks for the video Pat, entertaining as always!

[@shenanitims4006]

I can understand that guy not knowing who Tommy T is. Hell, a year from now I won’t remember his name either. Unless you’re really into video game music; enough to know the composer’s name, you won’t know Tommy. And I would have never heard of the Amico without this channel. And that guy looked old enough to have gotten the Intellivision when he was a kid, grew up and never stayed in games.

[@MsBee]

@@shenanitims4006 yeah I was being sarcastic

[@o8thmsmunchieman]

He obviously isn't living that faaat life like our good friend Tommy!

[@oafkad]

End of an era. I've never been to a flea market but it seems like it was a magical place before Ebay.

[@johnr.1592]

Before Ebay? C'mon... Ebay predates the N64, Gameboy color, etc.

[@TheEddieJ1984]

@@johnr.1592 Yea would be more correct to say the early to mid 2010's is when Flea markets & Thrift stores started pricing their stuff more compared to online since everyone started having smartphones and could check up prices alot easier.

[@matthewhovanes270]

Flea Markets were basically ruined by the social media age, since like 2007 or so (he even says 2006 when talking about cheap nes games in this video).

[@BeastCake1349]

Ebay killed the flea markets. I used to find hard to find games for cheap until they discovered ebay. The flea market was the place to go to find hidden treasures. Not any more.

[@NiceOCGuy1981]

​@Michael Cook I agree, these greedy sellers won't be able to sell them for the prices they want.

[@freddydingo]

No Frank, no party

[@NightYoshi]

I'm going to be so sad when Flea Market Madness ends. It's the series that got me into going to the flea markets and I've got so many great deals over the years as a result and even made some connections. KZbin just won't be the same without Flea Market Madness once it's over.

[@boskostoybox]

Yeah. Agreed. But I plan to watch the entire series over again.

[@epblu]

Yeah unfortunately it's just not the same anymore, everyone and thier grandma is an ebay scalper

[@jfgme]

Flea market deals died a long time ago sadly, every great once in a while you get lucky but deals are practically non-existent nowadays

[@josephpenney4208]

Such a shame

[@DickDack]

@@epblu even garage sailing has become resellers/ebay paradise....

[@satekeeper]

Magic Spoon... because they magically spoon over 7 oz of cereal for $10 (+shipping). My childhood nostalgia doesn't involve paying $1.60 for one ounce of food.

[@DakovP]

Also, they talk about being so healthy, yet theyre made with the same awful crap as bad ones.

[@minusp895]

That outro. Alone in the Dark The New Nightmare had such a badass soundtrack.

[@ArmadaAmbience]

My heart sank when my wife and I sang out loud "with me, Frank!" and the video didn't. EMOTIONAL DAMAGE

[@spookerd]

Flea market sadness because flea markets just aren't the same, but flea market madness because some day that could change but you won't ever know when that'll be.

[@starblaze27]

Got to get Frank to show up more. Let him know that he is what makes Flea Market Madness so awesome, well next to you Pat of course.

[@KSlig]

I held out hope till the bitter end that Frank would show up 😢

[@chrisjagon]

I like how you refer to it as "savings" and not "profit". Definitely a better way to look at things, as a collector.

[@Hotlog69]

That that contrived back in the day when people weren't looking to get paid but, save money.

[@michaelwallace9461]

Yeah but its not even savings. Savings only applies if you were definitely going to buy something ans got money off. He didn't 'save' anything - he spent $80

[@Nintendofan-yk4cd]

I have some of those old Mario PVC figures. Those are pretty cool.

[@TheCreepypro]

I am going to savor every single one of these till they run out, man this has been one of the greatest series on youtube!

[@alexmammoth2916]

As Pat was singing the sad Charlie Brown song a guy walked passed me in snoopy shirt. It was meant to be!

[@PolecatsRock]

Still one of the best shows on the tubes. Thank you Pat! Frank: I know I have the swap meet to go to. But damn there is a sweet six pack in my fridge XD

[@Aragorn7884]

The *sealed* 🦭 meme _never_ gets old 👍😂🤣

[@DoobieDoctor5000]

Tell Frank we love him. No pressure but he's a part of the channel. That music when you tallied your spoils... I had to see if the Terminator was chasing me.

[@richardjames14]

So sad to hear the series is coming to an end, thanks for all the great videos and memories🤙🤙🤙🤙

[@Turnabout]

My dog started whining and losing his mind when you sang the Charlie Brown Christmas theme, Pat

[@kalobhunt9001]

Man this is such an amazing series. I wish it would never end.

[@kschaubb]

I cant express how kuch i love this series and Pat for that matter!! Nostalgia God!!

[@bottlersam]

Please keep doing these. Like maybe 1 every 3 months or so, I miss seeing these.

[@bargaintuesday812]

"Is PS3 now retro?" Yep! Has been for over two years now. Two generations behind is the line where retro gaming starts.

[@JT5ingh]

Doesn't help that the ps3/360/wii gen went longer than it should have. They really are old systems now

[@johnr.1592]

No. It isn't. Two of the best games on the PS3 are GTAV and TLOU. Two of the best games on the PS4 are GTAV and TLOU. Two of the best games on the PS5 are GTAV and TLOU.

[@bargaintuesday812]

@@johnr.1592 Hey have you ever played any of the first six Final Fantasy games? Those are pretty good, right? Absolute classics aren't they?

[@johnr.1592]

@Bargain Tuesday Sure, they're classics, but none of those first 12 games could be sold as new software today- even the long awaited remaster of FF7 had to be a giveaway on PS plus just a couple months after release. The PS3 is still definitely a modern system with modern games. Think about the evolution in software between the Nes and the N64 or the Snes and the GC. Ps3 to PS5 evolution is laughable by comparison. A 2005 Bugatti Veyron isn't the top end today, but it is not a retro sports car and is still very much modern.

[@JT5ingh]

@@johnr.1592 The ps3 store servers were legit about to be shut down until people made a fuss a year or 2 ago. It's retro dude, they don't care to maintain the product.

[@johnnyace2287]

Thank you for these Pat. I miss old school flea markets.

[@BeastCake1349]

To bad they no longer exist. Sad really.

[@johnnyace2287]

@@BeastCake1349 yeah the whole 20's are sad 80s was da bomb y'all.

[@jameshenderson4089]

I’m not looking forward to the day we run out of flee market footage. 😢

[@OnslaughtSix]

All the old footage he had is actually lost. He's filming a few new ones to make it to 50 and then stopping.

[@TonyZi]

@@OnslaughtSix I remember when he told about them missing. How did they get missing though? I don't remember anymore. If it's a broken HDD at least Seagate offers onetime free time to try and recover the data on a laboratory. Quite sad that stuff got lost.

[@brianwest3537]

@@TonyZi yeah he should have moved it onto something other than a hard drive since they only last for about five years and this series has well past that

[@shenanitims4006]

Pat, the Pokémon guy was just trying to rip parents off. Bought it from China for $20, then gave it a HUGE markup. He likely should just boost the price up to $30, and sell them to parents by the boatload. As for the Erector set, you’ve come full circle now. Saw one in Jersey back in the day, and another now when you’re ending the series.

[@brocksamson9737]

Reading this made my brain hurt and left me feeling confused and angry.

[@bebo9798]

Love this series. Makes me want to go to the swap meet every time I watch an episode.

[@jesseleesamples]

Pat please don’t stop making these, I love watching them and always have. I know you can’t justify buying much anymore and the fm ain’t what it used to be, but I still enjoy watching you browse and educate me on all the different things you find even if you don’t buy the things. I used to watch FMM during a very dark time in my life and had no money to go deal hunting anywhere but I could sorta live vicariously through you. Sometimes I’d comment to myself “oh that’s a good deal” or “you shoulda bought that one” lol

[@CatPianoClassics]

Years ago, me and my buddy spent so much time looking for laser disc players at flea markets, swap meets and thrift stores to no avail! Super cool that you still sometimes find them in the wild!

[@pixelpoppyproductions]

Man, I still remember seeing Castle Grayskull at a garage sale in the 80s as a kid. It was still “new” at the time. It was maybe $2 - but my mom said no. 😭

[@NightDragon2383]

The MADNESS is back... OOOOHHHHH YEEEEEEEAAAHHHHHH!!!

[@kylecook1981]

Vegas Stakes is such an awesome casino game For the SNES. I remember getting it as a christmas gift as a kid one year and also getting mortal kombat, metal kombat, star fox, mario paint, top gear 2 and the dud mario is missing. Seeing pat grab Vegas and mario paint really took me back.

[@BlastedBilly]

Flea Market Madness always makes my day!

[@n64ever]

the madness was caught long ago, flea... flea never changes

[@olepigeon]

Dark Castle and Beyond Dark Castle are pretty much _THE_ games to get if you were going to get any for a vintage B&W Mac. The game play is fun and challenging, and the graphics & sound are outstanding for a 1-bit machine.

[@o8thmsmunchieman]

Thank you so much for continuing to provide amazing content. I've been watching FMM at least since the 2010s and I've been watching NESPunk since it's inception. You all have gotten me through some hard times and I truly appreciate the Conrti family and friends.

[@KombatGod]

I love that the terminology at the end is "savings". Others would have said "Profit" but that's only a profit if you can resell the things for the ebay price, which is not guaranteed.

[@dumdumchord]

Glad to see this, flea market madness has been on my mind the last couple days. BTW Stuttering Craig heard that he was mentioned in one of your videos regarding Tommy Tallarico and offered a response/explanation that he wasn't shilling for Tommy but he was just at the event with his kids being a dad and didn't put much analysis into the product.

[@JasonDuhKid]

This has been my favorite series for years

[@Drinkabeerandplayagameofficial]

That old man grunt at 11:04, I know it all too well

[@Nintendofan-yk4cd]

I have a handful of those old Mario PVC figures displayed on my gaming shelf along with the Punch-Out figures

[@Mike__P]

Makes me want to go to the Meadowlands flea market every Saturday in East Rutherford. I can't remember the last time I went there, or the last time I even saw a retro video game at any flea market around here.

[@brendanroberts1310]

It's slim picking nowadays unfortunately.

[@megamob5834]

$160 for a bootleg nes game… 😂 👍 good luck pal!

[@8-bitmausoleum]

Some Pokemon fans are gullible enough to pay that much.

[@joefell5311]

These videos are always fun to watch. We used to have a decent flea market here in Buffalo, NY years ago but they eventually shut it down and put up a Walmart on the property.

[@jonbourgoin182]

This series is ending soon and I'm not ready for it.

[@AAAAAAAAA1]

12:55 is that Magic Knight Rayearth guy? I remember him hugging the game but he was still willing to part with it for the right price.

[@thedadtris]

Pat always shows an accurate representation of swap meets in southern california. Pixel Game squad makes it look like deals are just falling from the sky (not true). Most sellers either scan the barcode and look at the first price that comes up and assumes that's what it's worth or they know what they have and are pricing at ebay prices or higher...untested, less accessories and generally in much worse condition. What pixel doesn't tell you is that they are setting up a large percentage of the finds ahead of time with the vendors.

[@NeoDragonKnight]

man you killed it with some of those finds in 2022?! That Mac game score was amazing! Glad you are getting in some last final treasure finds before it ends! Still hoping you may have the occasional flea market madness specials every few years ;)

[@fargoretro]

The Value!

[@thrillhouse4151]

TOMBA! Love that game, I rented it several times as a kid, it was one of the first things I bought from my first job. 2:25 no HexBox! 7:00 still sends shivers down my spine, and not the sexy kind.

[@Chicomite]

13:43 wow, my nostalgia just got super triggered when I saw that Rescuers 7" vinyl storybook. My sister and I used to fall asleep listening to that thing over and over again. Those were cool, they had a vinyl in the back with dialog read out, and a pretty big storybook covering the major beats of the movie. I can picture the plastic, beige, boxy record player for kids we had, with teal buttons and pink highlights, and cassette decks as well.

[@LanceDean]

Ahh sweet nostalgia. Thanks, Pat.

[@RicPendragon]

Tomba!? I'm sold solely by the thumbnail! I need to see the price and if you bought it!

[@aknortherner1]

Love the hard core savings music!

[@KombatGod]

2:54 I see Pat's still working on that coffee table made out of Super Mario Bros./Duck Hunt carts.

[@charlie8bit]

I randomly found a LaserActive at a Goodwill years ago. Bought it for my brother not really knowing what it was. After Googling I went back to that Goodwill as often as I could hoping to find one of the modules, but never found em

[@thejonnyera]

Love the FMM videos ! Frank was missed but seeing new FMM videos is always a treat

You can tell the man selling that bootleg NES game overspent ! That yellow turd was probably his golden ticket find ! 😂😂😂

My flea market days are over I get my fix watching pat buy and look at all this stuff thank you for the videos keep it up that Pokémon yellow cart was insane that guy should've been banned from selling at that flea market

[@RalphPootawn0]

Seeing Pechenga Arena again makes me miss living in San Diego.. Beautiful city Looks like a great flea market over there, too. Cheers

[@thebuthcer123]

One of the main reasons why I liked flea market madness was cuz I miss those early California swapmeet mornings

[@toaker]

Instead of the term “eBay prices” we should use the term “DK Oldies prices”

The Star Frontiers included when you bought the Macintosh games would have been what i snagged up.

That yellow cart asking price was odd but I think the most odd or messed up thing on flea market madness was when pat asked the guy about a N64 and he took out the jumper pack ...not a expansion pack and said he was selling that for extra it didn't come with it lol
