He Drove 5 Hours To Sell His ENTIRE VIDEO GAME COLLECTION!

In this video the shop gets in one of the nicest video game collections ever! A customer from several states away to sell his entire video game collection, join Sam as she goes through all of it and starts processing all of these amazing trades!

[@wcoulliette]

When a gamer sells their collection, you know life stuff is happening. I sold my entire collection many years ago to buy my first house for my family. I still collect today but nowhere near what I use to have. That collection may have made me happy back then but it funded a home for new memories with my family and it was worth every penny.

[@GizmoMaltese]

To buy your first house? How much did you get for the collection?

[@Mattened]

Good for you!

[@bigpapa870]

Amen.

You didn’t buy a video game collection. You bought a video game museum.

So clean. Huge respect to the guy for keeping it so nice. I just hope whoever gets these items next take just as good of care of it as he did.

[@damascus21]

I really hope you guys stay in business for a good long time. Every community needs a spot like this

[@sunshinem.7741]

Whoever Paul is, he has an INCREDIBLE life of gaming. It's amazing to see such a clean collection and know that more people will get to enjoy these too. No way his days of gaming are done, even if he doesn't go back to the older stuff anymore. As someone trying to make up for missed games because we weren't able to afford them growing up, this is literal gold lol Got my first GameCube, gba, xb360, ps3 phat, Dreamcast, and N64 just this year and even though i have to fix them up a bit i can't wait to find a couple good games for each!

[@thomofmaine]

Imagine having Paul as a neighbor growing up. Definitely the coolest kid on the block.

[@csharp57]

You’d probably never see him. He was busy gaming.

[@Delbzy]

That is indeed a collection, props to him for passing it on and props to you for giving people the opportunity to buy and play them!

[@randomguysays]

I am about 12 minutes and 13 seconds in and I'm in complete shock at this point. This dude had such a variety of games for different game systems and I'm sitting here watching as she's showing us all these different games. On all these different systems and I've yet to see one copy of Mortal Kombat lol. I mean normally we'll see like Mortal Kombat 3 on the Genesis on most trades, but damn no Mortal Kombat... That guy did have a epic and clean collection.

[@Hermitwizard777]

7:13 Mortal Kombat 2 and 3

[@randomguysays]

@@Hermitwizard777 Thank you, there so much stuff in that dude collection it's amazing...

[@yournightmare9999]

Those type of people will be regret that hardly

[@frarfarf]

Yeah like what awful thing happened in his life that he was forced to do this 😔

[@r1oot]

As you go through life, priories change. Total respect for him to preserve the stuff he had for the chance of the younger generation to experience retro gaming. Eventually everyone will have an epiphany and figure out that there are a lot of things you can't take to the grave or have your children/relatives be burden with.

[@BbBb-n9t]

Not sad. We all get to see it instead of having it rot in a house. So cool.

[@BlackCanvasAudio]

Whoever sold this collection makes me really proud. He kept his stuff in killer condition. I resell full time and it always brings a smile to my face when I get really great condition stuff in stock. I'm used to getting trash and game discs that it looks like were stored on concrete. lol

[@benster5]

I kept all my game boxes and cartridges/discs in mint condition too. I even kept the instruction books in neat condition.

[@supers0nic77]

There's one store near me that resells games but throws away all the original packaging and gives you genetic cases on old stuff

[@Rk3tSk8s-ut4yo]

Its not a sad thing entirely, it differs per person. There are many phases in life and sometimes the owners have moved on and other activities in life bring them more joy. I had a pretty nice collection at one point and ended up selling because for a long time it collected dust. I didn't have the same joy in playing games like I used to. It happens. The cool thing is that now others get to enjoy it and it will help to support a small business. Theres a lot of good that comes from this.

[@oscarr2480]

I'm loving the constant uploads

[@gregchandler900]

Me too!

[@GameEscape]

Please don't ruin these super clean games by putting price stickers right on the box! Go the Japanese way and wrap the games first.

[@MrGameNfit]

I think they are smart enough not to ruin the games with stickers

[@GameEscape]

@@MrGameNfit I've never been to their store or game stores in the south, but every store in the northeast that I have been to has had stickers on the games. Drives me nuts.

[@JohnSmith-zl8rz]

Yes stickers sucks!!!!

[@VaderForVa]

I am from VA and have 2 local ones. One of them puts stickers on the case/box, while the other wraps everything. I don't know about any further south.

[@CrackerBarrel55]

​@@MrGameNfitI mean.. all the games I see in the store have them 🤷‍♂️

[@linkdude64]

Thank you for immortalizing his collection! What a great channel! You guys are so passionate! It was so fun to freak out about random things that weren't mentioned, like everything from Sonic Adventure on Dreamcast to the 7th column gym bag (wish I was local so I could buy it! lol) Thanks so much for the video, and thanks to you, Paul, for loving and having passion for video games so much - I wish you the best in life and your move!

[@barryvercueil2346]

Makes me so happy to see that someone takes care of their games.

[@lyleabrahams]

When I see people give up collections like this it always makes me wonder whats really going on in their life. You can see how much he loved gaming just from how well his collection was kept... to let such a beautiful collection go must have been hard. I wish him well.... and great job to RadJunk for such an amazing come up.

[@mikekristin7201]

I would guess based on age, kid needs to go to college

[@jimbotron70]

Change of interests, financial issues, divorce, moving overseas...

[@jimmyboy131]

I've had to sell my entire gaming collection twice. Since then I'm in a much better situation and I'm slowing building back some of what I had, with a launch PS3, a 3DS, and an orange Gamecube that I just bought. I think I'll be good with a Switch, an Xbox 360, an N64, and maybe a Dreamcast. But that 64 is going to be a budget-buster if I decided to rebuild that part of my old collection, yikes. Anything Mario is still really spendy.

[@JayJDubba]

He obviously made the mistake of getting married, and now he has to abide by the rules.

[@MrKahikolu]

Wow what a collection! I'm sure Paul was happy to find someone to buy it all in one go. Respect to Paul, you obviously take great care of your things; that Super Mario RPG sample blew my mind! 😮 Thanks @RadJunk for sharing.

[@Weapon_20_X]

I mean, it's hard to pick just one thing out of this collection. It's an impressive library of consoles, games & peripherals spanning several generations. It's cool that he decided to come all the way to you guys to sell his collection; that was rad! It's really cool to see what you guys get on trade-ins.

[@StevieD1x]

The boxed F-Zero X is RAD!

[@Retrobash80]

I really like this guy. I can’t decide what the best gem of this collection is bonk three CD, Saturn bomber man, NAMCO set on PS1, or the fact that he left the blockbuster sticker on earthbound. This is my kind of collector.

[@RadJunk]

It just got better and better

[@kevinnguyen3389]

Love seeing trade-in videos, crazy seeing all the stuff people had in their collection. It'd be cool seeing videos on what it's like working/owning a game store. One of my local game stores, TND Video Games (they have a KZbin channel), often posted videos talking about misconceptions about owning a store, trends they see in terms of what sells and the type of questions they get asked, and what their favourite games are and the type of stuff they themselves collect

[@tdougler]

This collection is nuts! Those CIB SNES and the Dreamcast games alone make me want to plan a trip to Florida to spend way too much money on them. Amazing additions to the store inventory

[@bihretrogaming]

Great taste on Turbografx-16 collection, took me 10 years to collect all Turbo staff

[@BackNTheGameRetro]

Wow, this is an amazing collection 🎉 you guys grabbed. Shouts to the gentleman who owned it previously as well. Hope he’s good! Y’all definitely got some gems! 💎

[@BooBanana]

This dude has pretty awesome taste. Says a lot about a person when they own a copy of “it came from the desert”. Such a bizarre game in the best way.

[@perihelion7445]

I'm 50 and if I had this kind of collection I could imagine myself selling it all as well. There is a point you reach where holding on just isn't much sense any longer. I still have my 1992 Amiga 1200 that's still got it's Blizzard 030 accelerator, new keys caps, new case, 32 MB of fast ram, Goex Drive.. etc .. and I HAVE considered selling it. But many say I'll regret it, so I'll hold onto it.

[@lazsosa8711]

I have a huge collection probably double of what that gentlemen traded in. sometimes i just wanna get rid of it at our age having to clean all that crap every two weeks or so gets annoying.

[@TheVelvetChairGirl]

It's wild how she is genuinely excited by packaging

[@CTS_31]

That guy clearly had a huge game room. I barely have room to store my 250 nes games. The boxes alone take up so much space. Very impressive collection

[@tig3rjax494]

The condition of these items was simply amazing. Hopefully, the guy sold it because he just wanted to and not because he needed money to move or couldn't take the stuff with him. He had one hell of a collection.

[@matta9316]

Nice stuff in there - damn brings back some memories. She seems great and you gotta hope stores like this continue to thrive.

[@DaanielGreen]

the NAMCO collection being laid out like that is so aesthetically pleasing

[@ParanoiaDragon]

I'm a bit surprised that the collector didn't seem to know how big a deal Bonk 3 CD is. It was the final game in the US in December of 94. I wonder if he bought it then or if he got it later on eBay before the price skyrocketed?

[@eatmoreporkporky4342]

He's got fishing resort, major respect! The Saturn games bring me some good nostalgia.😊

[@OfficialBo420]

Was literally just watching some of y’all’s old vids before I backed out and saw this!

[@seraph741]

That's an insane collection and clearly the person cared for it. I don't know whether to be happy or sad, honestly. I guess it depends on the reason why he ended up selling. Hopefully it's not out of desperation and he's just moving on to different things. Edit: He even had the packaging for the eCards and folders of printed out guides. This is a wild collection that really gives you insight into the previous owners gaming life.

[@Supersmallchibiwolf]

Imagine If the gamer who sold this all went home and noticed that he took the wrong game boxes and now is stuck with the real games he wanted to get rid off. This was a great game find. I see Bonk games sometimes at retro game stores near me and I hope one day a Bonk collection comes to modern gaming consoles. Cool video. ^_^

Gotta love collectors that really takes care of their stuff. That person could have sold that stuff for a lot of money but I get that if you need to move and need the money in a hurry it makes sense to sell it all in one fell swoop. I just hope the collector got a beyond fair price for it because it's obvious he gave that collection a lot of love.

Near the end of the video, I saw there was a copy of Need for Speed Underground 2 [PS2] in the box by the door, I recently bought Need for Speed Underground 2 [OGX] from the Salvation Army for $12.95 ($9.71 because of the half-off sticker).

Pour one out for the guy that sold his collection. It's never easy

[@cylotron]

I had a complete run of Nintendo Power magazines from 1987 (including the mini issues) to 2000 I also had tons of issues of Die Hard Game Fan, Electronic Gaming Monthly, GamePro, etc... In addition, I had tons of NES, SNES, Genesis, Turbo Grafx, Turbo Duo, Neo Geo, etc... lots of consoles/games I had been collecting since the early 80's up until 2000. --- and that's just the gaming stuff. I also had tons of Star Wars toys from the 70s, a near complete He-Man & Transformers collections, G.I. Joe, M.U.S.C.L.E, Wheeled Warriors, etc.. etc... basically, enough stuff to open my own store. Anyway... what had happened was I went away for school. My family ended up moving and put a lot of stuff in storage. They ended up keeping the storage unit for years, as they had moved several times. Eventually, my father passed away. My sister then agreed to take over the storage. By this time, I had also moved away. I figured my stuff was safe in storage so just left it all be. My sister had a ton of valuable items in storage as well. Eventually my sister got married. At some point, my brother-in-law said he would "take care of everything" for my sister. One of those things was agreeing to pay the storage. Some time later, I ended up back in town and had wanted to get my stuff out of storage as I had my own place. It turned out that my brother-in-law had lied that he was paying for storage. The unit ended up getting auctioned off. We didn't find out about it until well afterwards.
