Craziest find I had was Donkey Kong Country 2 SNES soundtrack in a yard sale for $0.50 and the last one sold on Ebay is $800.

[@phantomclipper]

My best video game pickup all happened at one sale. I got a sealed PS2, a sealed XBOX, 63 PS2 Games, 55 XBOX Games, and 16 Dreamcast games..... for $150. The person having the sale was a woman that had recently lost her husband. Her husband owned a local game store for several years.

[@dotubum]

Best find was also in Michigan. Old lady selling stuff, wife wanted to go to for knickknacks when I discovered Atari, Nintendo, Redline Hot Wheels, and Lionel Trains. Bought $280 worth of items valued at over $4000.

[@mogensbach9590]

I watched all your videos. This one is in the TOP 5 Procent Ones. It’s one of those videos made with thoughts and not one of those ‘hole crap we have to put something up to show we live’-videos there have been a lot of lately. It’s of of those ‘I gotta remember to watch it again more closely’ ones. So thumbs up for this one!

[@philipnapier3382]

Love these longer videos. Your channel has become one of my favorites to watch

[@MMAJesus420]

My best find ever was from a Facebook group call. An older couple sold me their whole collection of SNES, Nes, & Nintendo GC Collection. CIB mint games and consoles. Three years back, and I still have a few games for sale. I just sold Mario RPG for the most ever on eBay. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@WoodenLegStudios]

Don’t sleep on first print hang tab Metroid grey box. Best finds: Best game find, Blood Will Tell Sealed for 50 cents. Best game item find, Tails statue from ToyRus for $1500, got offered 5k the same day. Honorable mention, Hagane SNES manual for a quarter, from a game store! And I’m happy to say I still own all 3 of these items. Great video

[@mastryda]

Fun fact. That Donkey Kong game n watch is the first and introduction to the world for the "D" pad. It has become a staple for controls since.

[@AkodoAkira1]

Switch! I love your videos! Pure nostalgia fuel to see these games. NES, SNES, and Genesis was my childhood, N64 was my High school, and the Cube was college!

[@vincentgiasson7551]

Hello Chase, congratulations to Elisa, you and all the little family on the arrival of Player 3l! I hope that everybody is OK!! Can’t wait to see that sweet little smile on the vlog!!!

[@racestudiopl9964]

Fascinating video! It's impressive to see such a collection of video games, and your passion for them is evident. Your story sheds light on the dedication and commitment that goes into building a collection like this. Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

[@victorfrankenstein50202]

I am an absolute novice when it comes to old video games, but thanks to channels like yours, I’m opening my eyes to their value. Thanks. 😊

[@GameFootageArchive]

My best garage sale find ever was definitely a lot of NES games worth $850+ for $40 (seller's price, not my offer). The guy didn't even have them out because he said he knew they were worth money and didn't want to deal with haggling with people. But he said in the moment I asked him for games, they turned into just another box taking up room in his garage that he wanted gone.

[@vamountainman2512]

When I was a teen I bought an og xbox so I gave my girlfriend at the time my perfect condition NES with about 300 loose games, no duplicates. Because I wasn't using it any more. I wonder some times what that would be worth today 😅

[@scirrgeorge4375]

@@vamountainman2512 The NES not so much, the games on the other hand some big bucks

[@heathnoutdoors7167]

I found 8 complete sets of the first 8 sets of Pokémon cards. Paid 1000 for everything, sold it for 32,000 during the Covid hype. Took the lady back another 2500 and she about had a heart attack

[@tonylenzi166]

I know this is an older vid, but i was just rewatching and noticed you talking about possible employee copies bc of serial number, from what i know emplpyee copies usual have a hole punched in the upc

[@mpthor2000]

My best find was Valkyrie Profile at a garage sale for $2 in 2013. That jump started my obsession with game hunting.

[@NaturalAnimalKG]

BOYS WE GAMIN! Best Find - Garage FULL of ISP tech - Server equipment, routers, switches, printers, phones, etc. Bought about 15k worth of stuff for $175 my 3rd month into reselling. Im not sure I wouldve went full time without that buy. "Coolest Find" - $60 binder of WOTC Pokemon cards that included multiple 1st Edition Shining Cards and 90% of it was MINT. Digimon definitely had the foundation to be "better" than Pokemon, it just flopped because Bandai sucks. I love Pokemon but if Digimon wouldve done the SAME thing as Poke I personally think it wouldve been better.

[@hannahbanana6533]

One of my best stories is when my boyfriend and I weren’t even looking for yard sales but found one. It was a moving sale this older man was having, lots of furniture and dish ware, that kind of stuff. Sitting on the ground in the garage I saw a silver GameCube, we asked about it and he said $3. Took it home and plugged it in, it worked great.

[@pnwgamerguy8030]

Best find is hard.. pokemon box for 10$, n64 toys r us kiosk for 150$, sears Nintendo display case for 100$, panzer dragoon saga in a sega cd bundle for 50$.. there is alot over the years..

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

Those are some fantastic finds!

[@Dazedgames4201]

The best find for men was finding a copy of the legend of Dragoon for $2 at a thrift store. Sold it for $80 after I played it

[@thomasgjernes4198]

So hype! My best garage sale fine was mad dog McCree for the Wii for $2.50.

[@fabioa561]

my best find ever was a factory sealed mario sunshine for 1.99 with a stack of other gamecube games but that was the best one. this was pre retro youtube game hunting....good old days

[@realwildgoods]

Congratulations on the arrival of your new baby Chase & all the family! Wonderful news!

[@HoonAgain]

5% gang!! Great vid. Crazy good hauls. Never get tired of seeing you guys hustle, work and entertain.

[@AustinDpOwers89]

My best yard sale find was pokemon soulsilver, heartgold, black 2 and black... for $4 each. They were the games only, no cases, but still, amazing.

[@mikec3949]

I've never had a grail video game score at a yard sale (Getting someone's Wii/Wii U collection with great games comes close) BUT my grail story is: Bought a photo album from the 1940s/50s full of candid photos of a celebrity named Dick Contino. Had a bunch of autographed pictures and pics of him and his family through the years. Purchased for $40 and sold for $1,000 to his widow (he passed a couple years prior). Such a random thing to be at a yard sale

[@robertsonflipsales3979]

Awesome collection buy guys!! I’ll keep this short since I’m on my phone and have fat fingers. My best garage sale find was brand new NES & SNES games for $5 each. I think the guys dad was a collector and had passed away and his son didn’t know the value. I bought about 12 games, most notably Secret of Mana, Chrono Trigger, Super Mario Bros 2 and DK Country - all sealed. Got them graded back in 2015, sold most on eBay. Thank the stars I held off on selling 2 of them until last year and they were worth enough to send to Heritage for them to auction off. It was an amazing find and I still dream about finding something that good again (but know it’s very unlikely). Love you guys ❤

[@Lazerz330]

My best garage sale find ever was definitely a lot of NES lot with 2 nes system & about 40 games for $20

[@evan7-115]

In terms of great stories, I found a sealed Banjo-Tooie and they only asked for $1. I asked if there were anymore around and they pulled out a box of 16 N64 games (the essentials, Smash, Mario Party, Mario Kart, etc). They only wanted $20, but I gave them $100

[@phorm57]

It was smart choice for you because you have a following from youtube that supports you.

[@toonswap8511]

Best find ever was a CIB SNES Chrono Trigger in minty fresh condition for $1 at a community sale at 12:30PM. The funny thing is that he wanted to sell me an Xbox 360 Deus Ex for $10 but parting with 15 NES & SNES games for $15 was not a problem.

[@BigCheeseThrifts]

5% of watchers but 100% of GAMECUBE and retro glory! Man this was an awesome pickup!

[@mattman1684]

I'd have to say my best find to date was a boxed NES and a loose Super Metroid for 12$ CAD total.

[@nvrmnd8]

5% and I vote for the Switch. International viewer here from across the water 👋 Been following your journey for a while and it's been great seeing the CATRP business and KZbin channels grow. Always try to jump on your Whatnot streams when the time difference allows as they're always great fun. Keep up the great work, gents! ✌️

[@Illmatic662]

I feel the too scary part on the Horror games. The first time I played Silent Hill 2 was like a decade after it came out, and I could only play it during the day, lmfao. So happy they're remaking it though, because that game just had such an awesome eerie and creepy feeling - Good video.

[@HugoHDHP]

My best find ever was finding a Conker's Bad Fur Day box and manual (box still had its seal but had been opened) for 2 dollars. Out of nowhere i had a CIB Conker's Bad Fur Day, payed no more than 15 dollars for the box and the game in separate sales.

[@JBowkz]

Garage sale in 2021 I picked up a shoebox full of Nintendo handhelds. A Game Boy Color, Gameboy Advance, a DS and about a dozen games (including 6 Pokémon games, including Emerald) for $5. Same sale I got a tote full of graphic novels for $20 & a small box of McFarlane toys for $10. Ended up being over $500 value for less than $40. Chase’s favorite Gamecube games for the whatnot giveaway. Favorite platformer - either Super Mario Bros 3 or Sonic the Hedgehog 2

[@lewisgrant7622]

To a normal person who isn’t a collector or plays games would look at this and say it’s a waste of money. But to us as collectors it is a dream to have a collection like this.

[@MaxHustle8052]

Best find ever was a outback Joey complete system with the game at a thrift store for $12

[@waynesmith3177]

I found Clayfighter Sculptor's Cut for $4. I have also found Die Hard NES, Ren and Stimpy Buckeroos, Kirby's Dreamland 3, and Fire Emblem Path of Radiance for less than $5 each.

[@ChaseAfterTheRightPrice]

It’s not really 5%, more like 30-40% on a video like this. Back in the early early days it was 5%, and the name sort of stuck

That's hilarious, Are you my nephew? I did the exact same thing with our coleco vision.. Smurfs was one of my favorite games on there.

[@sunshinestatepicker6453]

Do a lot more than just video games, have to. But we spent $20 on hockey related memorabilia and sold it for over 1k. Also the brand Bernina makes high end sewing machine stuff. Bought one from a storage locker person for $20. Parted everything out, same thing 1k in sales

[@Vintagetoysandcollectables]

We have purchased some really nice collections over the last few years but this is the best I have seen. Very well done to you and the team 👏 👍

[@forshizzle87]

I would say my best garage sale find was getting a PS Vita for $5 and it had a memory stick plus a copy of mortal kombat in it.

[@donsmith2671]

Best find ever ... that's tough ... but my wife last year picked up 2 boxes of Gamecube and PS2 games for $30. The games were in MINT condition including Disaster Report, Ikaruga, Resident Evil games, both Viewiful Joes and more. Mostly baby clothes on the tables but these boxes were sitting in the garage still at around noon!

[@B.Lynck92]

Great video, like always! 👍 My best single game find was a cib ps1 ghost in the shell for 2euros

[@ObjoGaming]

Best find ever was a CIB Killer Instinct SNES bundle that came with DKC and for some reason an N64 copy of Super Bowling. $5 back in 2014

[@ObjoGaming]

Also I wonder why he put all of the games in generic DVD cases. Sure they look newer but they're not original!

[@willsanders6765]

At a thrift store I found swordquest waterworld for the atari 2600. I couldnt remember which of the swordquest games had value and checked on my phone. I was so stunned, Paid $6 and sold for $350.

[@mitchell6207]

My best find was my dad was at work and was going to through something away in the dumpster and he said there was a bag in the dumpster with cables hanging out to he looked in the bag and there was a black n64 with 7 games 1 n64 game and 6 snes games.

[@nengelen]

I watched the same video and was mildly amused by these guys mainly boasting about numbers and adressing the comment section on autopilot way too many times.

Great SCORE, wish you and your family, and team the best of luck. Keep up the great work and content. I have learned alot and know what I am looking out for this garage sale season

[@sigchiwab5520]

My best find to date was a first print copy of Super Mario Kart sealed at a sale in the middle of nowhere last summer! I offered $200 for the game. The guy had a few more lower end NES/SNES titles sealed as well that I picked up and probably a dozen cib NES/SNES titles. There is still treasure to be found out in the wild!

[@collieallover]

Seeing Asspizza "YES YES" was the last thing id expect to see in a CATRP vid. Great vid!!

I got an Intellevision with 8 games for $2 at a yard sale. I tested it to make sure it worked then flipped it the same day for $25 at a game store. they put it in the showcase cabinet for $100

[@OzFromOhio]

Love how they are buying a collection in the parking lot in front of Replay in Toledo, go there often but the guy was smart enough not to try and trade his stuff to the store.

Best finds ever was Godzilla on PS4 for $20 from family video. Another one was a mixture of 100 360/PS3 games from a local pawn shop for $200. A lot of duplicates and nothing super crazy, but it helped me fill out the collection.

[@skippyfx]

My best single item find is a clean SNES Chrono Trigger, CIB. My cost basis was less than $10 from a giant pile I purchased. At the time, I didn’t even know the game was rare or valuable. Sold it locally for $800 cash the next month.

[@justinheaton8808]

Best find Ever: Paid less than $1 for a sealed copy of Soul Calibur on Dreamcast. Had it graded and it got a 9.6 A+ and sold it a few months ago for $1,800 on Ebay

Metal gear franchise definitely one of my favorites!!

[@itsViirtueYEAH]

it's nice to know these games are going back into the world to people who will appreciate and enjoy then and not just collect dust in some boxes

[@Sportycoolja]

best individual find was probably a virtual boy in the box with some games for a dollar at a garage sale.

[@jordanstallings4502]

My favorite find so far was NCAA 13 for $0.74 total at Goodwill a few months ago. It was in their stack of games in the front counter, and that Goodwill was selling VGs for DVD prices instead of $2.99 like at most others.

[@Toonie]

Wow amazing buys all around! Love the 1 hour video

[@Mw541987]

For $60 I got a box of sega stuff that included a nomad, 32x, knuckles chaotix and a copy of grindstormer that unfortunately was a none working copy but still valuable. Those were the big items but there was a Genesis and a few cheaper games.
