My Best Charity Shop Find of 2023!

[@elvisthegamecollector7053]

Excellent finds mate. Getting harder in charity shops but like you said, keep going as you never know... I've had to broaden my horizens with dvd box sets, Plushies etc to fund my game collection but it does work.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Exactly it’s whatever you can find to fund what you love! I’ve sold some strange things to fund my gaming habit lol and it’s all about that broadening your horizons and keeping going!

[@chrisandrews8357]

Amazing find there, PS3 is my thing at the moment and to find all of that, insane. Top stuff

[@DanTheGamesMan]

I know I couldn’t believe it when I found it! Rare PS3 stuff is getting harder and harder to find!

[@rafasreds5324]

Dan I got light headed just watching the final charity shop pickup😂 What a score!

[@DanTheGamesMan]

I know right I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, for once I was speechless lol

[@ProperZing]

Insane find. Occasionally life gives us these moments where our timing is spot-on! Are you hitting up the London Gaming Market in a few weeks?

[@DanTheGamesMan]

I know it was crazy! I couldn’t believe it when I saw it! Was literally shaking haha. Maybe I’m not sure yet it depends on travel but hopefully!

[@Retromaster2023]

Great find there mate, some nice CEX credit there for you 👊

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Keeping these most of these in the collection as tempting as it is lol

[@Retromaster2023]

@@DanTheGamesMan lol 😂 don’t blame u as most will only go up in value, especially the NTSC and Japanese versions mate. I’ve never had a ps3 find like that, that’s prob the best find I have seen so far.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

@@Retromaster2023 yeah it’s a crazy find and definitely not a common occurrence sadly and yeah it’s games like these that will shoot up in value

[@Retromaster2023]

@@DanTheGamesMan look forward to the next video mate. 👊

Great Find Dan! Will you be at the Norwich toy fair tomorrow?

[@DanTheGamesMan]

I won’t be unfortunately, will you be hunting there?

Thank you!

good one dan u ready for more gaming markets soon

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! I am indeed, starting to plan for next year now!

[@Griff2442]

Didn’t expect Attleborough to be on the vid! Close to where I live! 😅

[@DanTheGamesMan]

There’s some great charity shops there and Omegas Emporium is awesome!

[@grahamberesford6995]

That find at the end was insane. Well done. You are not wrong when you said persistence looking in charity shops pays off. It might not be as big a find as yours but I recently found a Call of Duty Black ops 3 PS4 controller for £20. I then traded it into CEX for £50.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks I couldn’t believe it when I found it! I was shaking! That’s a cool controller and a really good find!

[@GarethJohnson-uv1qb]

Amazing pick ups mate! Buxton only 30 mins from me. I’m not doing that well this year with the charity shops but keep going to hopefully find something decent. Hopefully soon🤞 my best pick ups of the year gotta be the resident evil 2 and 3 on GameCube for 99p each

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! You must live in a really nice area if that’s ok your doorstep! That’s an amazing pick up, and amazing games!

[@stuartburrell7153]

Dont know what happened to previous comment ,but some amazing ps3 pickups . Short piece is sells for £50 in CEX !

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! I couldn’t believe it when I saw them all sitting there, I knew there was some amazing value there but I couldn’t believe how much!

[@kibatechwolf]

Good finds especially God of war. Last week I found a copy of castlevania symphony for £3 cracked case but sold it for 425. Some charity shops are getting wise to the retro scene.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! Wow that’s a good find to sell for that amount! Good work!

[@evi6199]

Damn some really nice Japanese RPGs on the PS3 there. You hit a gold mine

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! I couldn’t believe it when I saw them all sitting there!

[@jordannimash]

Great stuff Dan. Speaking of CDs we have sold motion picture soundtracks for good money like Spiderman lord of the rings godzilla and King Kong.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! I’ll have to keep an eye out for motion picture soundtracks, I bet there’s also some cool ones out there!

[@mariasnell6868]

Great haul!!

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks I couldn’t believe it!

[@Retromicky82]

Excellent finds mate but can't see John cena lol

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Haha love it!

[@lewisgrant7622]

It’s honestly a hit or miss with cds especially box sets or collections. You really have to look to find ones that are worth money

[@DanTheGamesMan]

@@lewisgrant7622 exactly knowing is half the battle but it makes it so much sweeter when you find one!

[@lewisgrant7622]

@@DanTheGamesMan will say though in terms of games you found a lot of bangers that will have been worth trading in to CEX

[@DanTheGamesMan]

@@lewisgrant7622 yeah so far I’ve kept all of them lol

[@ARKslipperyfish]

😱Wow I mainly collect PS3 games and even i dont own many of those games that you managed to get that is A absolutely amazing find incredible and the best thing I got in A charity shop was probably A Japanese PSP game or A sonic gamecube game Great video enjoyed it alot👍👍👍

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks! It’s getting rarer to find ANY PS3 games in charity shops let alone bangers like this! These must be hard to find as I haven’t heard of most of them either but am excited to check them out! Thanks for watching!

[@bluwolf9357]

Awesome pickups Dan!!! 🤘🤘🤘

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Thanks mate couldn’t believe what I found this time!

[@mwint6403]

I've never found a single thing in Buxton. Whats crazy as well is the CEX close by to that charity shop where some of the Pal games could of been traded in for cash. You really did luck out there! Dengeki Bunko Fighting Climax is worth a quick go just to see the Sonic back ground.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

I’ll have to try it out! I did also go to the CEX and something amazing happened but that’s a story for another time ;) Still can’t believe it and so happy someone took them in!

[@IvanIvanov-uo8xm]

Well I was in Wembley to a charitiy shop 200 meters from CEX shop inside found 4 Mario games for wii worthy 60£ each bought it for 1£ .You never know when the rabbit will shop up.

[@DanTheGamesMan]

@@IvanIvanov-uo8xm wow that’s awesome! Does show you never know what will turn up where!

[@guybran6605]

Best I've had this year was at game 98p per game all trades in at cex between £4 and £8 bought 30 games total

[@DanTheGamesMan]

That’s awesome what games was it you picked up?

[@kenturner244]

you say about dvd boxsets i once found crossroads tv series complete dvd boxset for £5.00 i took a punt and sold it on fb marketplace for £200

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Wow that’s a huge profit! Definitely one to keep an eye out for!

[@adamdam]

BTW, thoughts on Crown Jewel tonight?

[@j1m909]

My local charity shop has had so much good stuff in this year, PS2 TV, N64s, rare games but they're all priced at retail 😭😭

[@DanTheGamesMan]

That’s a shame about the pricing but very cool to see stuff like that! Especially the PS2 Tv!

[@alexgrayisaligman]

My best charity shop is that I found some nntendo switch games for 50p each i picked up Splatoon 2, fifa 18 and Zelda breath of the wild

[@DanTheGamesMan]

Wow that’s crazy, I’ve never seen switch games in a charity shop and at that price it’s an amazing find!
