How to Make Money Buying Video Games at Walmart

[@ToastyJP]

Just wanted to say that one of the reasons why I love your videos-not only are they entertaining but they’re family friendly. I can watch them with my son sitting next to me and not worry if you’re going to swear or anything.

[@PhoenixResale]

Haha thanks Jason! Yeah I try to keep it pretty clean cause I know there are games that watch

[@TheFlippingAccountant]

Whaaaaaat?! Thanks for the shout out Caleb and awesome video by the way! Making $1,000 profit in a day is most impressive! This video provides a ton of great tips and guidance, as they always do. Keep up the great work brother!

[@electoblaze]

One thing I've definitely learned from your videos is that it's possible to make six figures selling a HUGE volume of smaller margin items. To be able to turn $5-15 profit into a full time income is certainly a titanic feet! I like to think I can get there too this year. 2021 let's go!

[@PhoenixResale]

Eyyy excited to watch your journey!

[@TachibanaTengoku]

5 dollars of profit per item to make 50k is like 27 games per day. I'd be hard pressed to find that many, but I can more than make up for qty by just finding games with more profit margin.

[@PinkFlowers365]

nice ty for the motivation

[@CheapFindsGoldMines]

super awesome information. Average people don't realize that resellers see opportunities everywhere! YES you can make money shopping at Walmart!!!

[@nbacardcollector22]

Great video! You are my favorite resale KZbinr, keep up the grind!

[@PhoenixResale]

I appreciate that! Thanks NBA!

[@Loadeddowngolf]

Nice finds, Ive tried the retail Arbitrage in my business, not cost effective for me still love the old thrift store hunt but great to see the deals you got. Great video

[@PhoenixResale]

Thanks C!

[@rickeyrankin8457]

Nice Haul I just went to Walmart yesterday

[@videogamez3238]

I watched this 2 days ago and I barely got the notification that it was uploaded 😂

[@Aenashi]

Been watching the flipping accountant also. Good channel too. Not a bad haul for you. The BOLO for yo Kai watch games is the 3rd and “busters”.

[@Mostwantedresellers]

Been waiting on this

[@photoc]

I tried to play the Arbitrage drinking game and take a drink every time Caleb says "arbitrage'. I'll post a reply after I get out of the hospital for alcohol poisoning. :D :D

[@jeffreyant7936]

Damn you been in there for a while bro u dead?

[@G5ranch]

Thanks for the heads up. Gonna have to keep an eye on the game clearance racks at all stores from now on. ? Have you done a video on all the top games that are the best or top sellers that we should be on the look out for? Thanks

[@PhoenixResale]

No, I post links to all worthwhile games I’ve found in the Discord though

[@thevideogamebrothers3006]

Very nice! I scored Doom 3 and Sniper at my local Wal-Mart for three cents each. The employee saw me looking at games and just said "hey do you want these for three cents each?" Can't turn that down.

[@PhoenixResale]

Haha that’s amazing!

[@BenSchmerler]

Nice finds! Cat Quest is totally worth checking out. It's like an action RPG with cat puns. Simple but fun. My gf and I both played through it. Then sell it when you are done :)

[@GianfrancoLaRotta]

Awesome Job!! 10:20

[@waffle5644]

I haven’t found too many things at Walmart, but I did find a LEGO switch game for 5 and ocarina 3D for 5 as well. Hoping I find color splash sometime at that great price! Great video!

[@AshleySmith-su5mv]

I picked up 10 NHL 20 games from a wholesaler a few weeks ago! But I paid £13 and they’re selling for 29.99 in the uk So I’m glad you’re in the USA or you’d be my competition 😂

[@anna-mariebotha4746]

Very good idea to take the bicycle seats! I ride everyday bike and many people buy them. But games comes first!

[@PhoenixResale]

Heard that!

[@anna-mariebotha4746]

How you hold the Nintendo Switch in you're hands. That's my dream! To hold a Switch in my hands.

[@projectjet8096]

Just an FYI, don't bring the 3 cent games to the self checkout up front! I came across Doom VFR, Dead Rising 3, and Evil Within 2 marked at 3 cents each according to the Walmart app and the price checker at the Walmart. Went to checkout and all 3 games threw a "Item restricted please wait for assistance" error. The Guy came over confirmed through his scanner they were indeed 3 cents, but the register wouldn't scan them to sell because apparently when they are marked at 3 cents that means "the item is not sellable in their system and has to be removed". I asked for manager to come over to override it and she said the same thing that they couldn't sell them to me and couldn't override it. Not sure if it's just this particular Walmart I went too, but just something to keep in mind. Next time I will checkout at electronics lol.

[@PhoenixResale]

I’ve been hearing that happen a lot

[@ReviewArchiveUSA420]

Those still won't ring up at electronics either. I work at Walmart and they will either send those back to the warehouse to sell for more on the website or they will donate em for a tax write off.

[@tkbuilt2145]

Another great video I learn a lot watching your content

[@BYWWrestling]

On Walmart clearance I got four 3DS games. A dollar each! Super smash bro’s x3 and super Mario world

[@alyssaware]

How!?!!?!!!??

[@BYWWrestling]

@@alyssaware really good luck haha

[@PhoenixResale]

That’s amazing!

[@BYWWrestling]

@@PhoenixResale I literally got so lucky! I always get lucky at my local Goodwill. I found a PlayStation 2 game called haunting ground for 2 dollars!

[@davewest3137]

Some excellent sourcing Caleb love this content 😁😁

[@twysted]

I scored a few of the 5.00 nhl20 and fifa20 and a few 5.00 Sims games also picked up that rocket arena for .03 that was awesome lol

[@PhoenixResale]

Nice work!

[@nedmac9857]

Quick question! How do you prep used games to ship Fba? Do you just label and load them into a box? Polybag? A piece of Tape to make sure the case doesn’t open up? Thank you!!! Love the vids

[@PhoenixResale]

Have a video on that in my Resale Guides playlist!

[@gavinmorin]

Hey I just discovered your channel the other day by scrolling my recommended on youtube and I'm glad I did! I've been watching Retro Rick and Chase After the Right Price for a while now so it's cool to find another channel to watch in the same genre. Anyway quick question for you, what camera do you use to film these videos? I make videos myself and I'm looking for recommendations. Love the videos!!!

[@PhoenixResale]

Hey thanks for the support Gavin! I use a GoPro 8

[@ReSyncPrime]

Here before it goes viral

[@TheDude10k]

How do cash/no receipt write offs work on cash/no receipt deals? Video idea?

[@itsmrfollandev3821]

I feel bad for whoever buys that ATV Drift game for more than $20. I just bought it on the eshop for $2 and felt like I got ripped off.

[@PhoenixResale]

Lol

[@retrogamingrus4668]

Good job man. Unfortunately all the games are worthless now after you tossed them all around the back of your car. Lol

[@PhoenixResale]

Man people really think a 12-inch drop does anything to games. If so, and you accidentally throw yours, I’ll buy them as damaged!

[@silas558]

Great video, what is the app Brixxy?

[@josephbrackett7592]

🔥 awesome video

[@pickflip4429]

For a 13 hour day thats still making more profit than a regular 9-5 in 2 days. Nice job, the American Dream can be achieved !

Check the target dumpster lol

[@bestlofibeatstochill4680]

You are the first person I will subscribe to.

[@PhoenixResale]

Hey what an honor!

[@edwardteach2]

Did you pay the sales tax for those games at Walmart or Target? Or did you apply with your seller's permit? Also, when you scanned the games at Target, did you use the Target app to get the price and then looked on Amazon to check for a profit?

[@PhoenixResale]

Yes I did and no I just went on sticker price at target

[@a7xgirl278]

My Walmart had Kirby for $15 so I got all they had. I got Mario Kart and Mario bros 2 on 3ds for $5. I got majoras mask for $1!!

[@PhoenixResale]

Eyyy that’s what I’m talking about

[@ach-eww1866]

I wish you could see my local Walmart, every time I go in there's 4 separate clearance shelf's full of discounted games, I'd buy most of them every time but I don't do online selling so I only buy enough to sell or trade locally. They even had some ps2 games covered in dust a few months ago put on the shelves

[@ach-eww1866]

And Xbox 360 games for $1 each

[@PhoenixResale]

Haha that’s amazing, rural area?

[@ach-eww1866]

@@PhoenixResale yep I live in a "village" about 10 minutes away from our small city and the Walmart is by the highway to and from and that's pretty much it because all the big cities are 40-60 minutes away. My local Walmart hardly ever sells games so most of the games end up sitting for a while. Ps2, Ps3, Xbox 360 games, but surprisingly no Wii or Wii U games anymore

[@samsellsstuff325]

Thats really interesting, just dance 2020 wii in the UK is a used £80-90 game and new £120! Been lucky enough to find it before

[@joesmith9483]

what do you use to check prices??

[@davestation6344]

All the Targets I went to I asked the employees if they had any 3DS games and majority of them had them in the back. Even stores that said they didn't have any 3DS games ended up having games when I went back and asked.

[@PhoenixResale]

Good call!

[@KHSxDAVIDHERNANDEZ]

Dude can I just say I like you way more than chase after the right price!

I do too :)

[@Erati243]

@Phoenix Resale You are a game reseller Can you tell me why an new copy of Super Smash Bros Brawl on the Wii is selling on Ebay from 20 dollar up to 300 dollars? why the huge difference?

[@PhoenixResale]

$20 copies almost certainly aren’t sealed

[@cincyflipper]

found a stack of Mario maker and majoras mask on 3DS for $5 each. Walmart has been hitting real good lately.

[@PhoenixResale]

That’s amazing!

[@mohamedabdoumohamed4642]

What is your thought about the future of video game market? taking into account that everything is shifting to digital and downloading games rather than buying discs.

[@PhoenixResale]

Dunno, don’t think it’s going anywhere in the near future. I’m striking while the irons hot though!

[@canadianreseller]

@@PhoenixResale Yeah I still think physical is much more popular than digital. Just look at the new Xbox....no one wants the Series S and everyone wants the Series X.

[@njboy7]

So in Walmart I would just go by what the price is on the Walmart app and ignore the price tags on the games itself and on the shelves?

[@sublime90]

yes

[@PhoenixResale]

Yep

[@mohamedabdoumohamed4642]

What is the name of the retail arbitrage/clearance app again please?

[@PhoenixResale]

Brickseek

[@SwagLikeChrist]

How accurate is brick seek with the 10 bucks a month subscription. 80%? 70%??

[@PhoenixResale]

Hard to say. Probably around there

[@FlippingNostalgia]

Question, I just got started on Amazon, can you sell games that do not have the original case? I have been selling those on eBay instead

[@RedOliveIndustries]

you can under "used" condition.

[@PhoenixResale]

Yes you can, condition is acceptable, not just used.

[@penguinnath4727]

I love your videos

[@diggingfordeals300]

I've always wanted to try video game arbitrage but havent gotten the chance. Don't you have to pay $1 a listing or did it change?

[@PhoenixResale]

Yes if you don’t have a pro seller account

[@diggingfordeals300]

@@PhoenixResale Ah so there’s a difference

[@sublime90]

ive had no luck at all with brickseek. the free version is almost useless because they're the last to know of a deal. i tried the $10 a month for a few months and anytime a deal popped in my local walmarts they were 100% cleared out by the time i got there. ive yet to try to $30 a month version but im guessing thats the way to go because there the 1st to know of the deals then its just a race to be the first one there.

[@PhoenixResale]

I just have the $10 🤷‍♂️ There’s a lot of stuff not listed on brickseek

[@canadianreseller]

I don’t really understand why regular employees at places like Target would dislike resellers? It’s not like it impacts their pay or even their store? A sale is a sale.

[@Lefty_Maestro18]

That’s my local GameStop and Walmart !!!

[@daverice4755]

Do you always ship FBA or do you also sell MF?

🤷‍♂️ don’t really know why they do it

[@willlineberry8214]

Nice finds! I found Yo-Kai watch 2 for $7 at my Walmart, so wild

[@lstealth]

ehh seems like alot of work, you gotta pring labels and ship everything acount, deal with seller fees and shiping fees, not worth the flips i would think..., would rather flip sport cards, although impossible to find, you actually make money from the flips.

[@PhoenixResale]

You may not have caught it, but the $1000+ is net, not gross. I’ll work for $60 an hour doing something I love any day.

[@totengott6599]

All of those sports games might be worth $1.....if youre extremely lucky!

[@chubbs2067]

Brickseek is legit, how I found out about Octopath and Xenoblade recently.
