You gave him $1 dollar really really

[@ElDabstroyero]

I paid what he was asking - which was $1 🤓

[@omegacomics3548]

Congrates on reclaiming that win after the last time you missed it :)

[@ElDabstroyero]

Thanks Omega! No spoilers haha but definitely some redemption!!

[@pie_stains]

Oh ya, I think I remember that miss. It was still there this time!!!

[@ElDabstroyero]

You’re an OG if you remember that! It feels like ages ago and believe me I was as shocked as you are that it was still there!

[@kymhausen]

the excitement when you found that huge score was palpable, such an amazing moment! 🎉

[@ElDabstroyero]

It really was surreal! So many things had to go right for that to still be sitting there a year later!

[@willy7369]

I like how you Thrift/ yard sale and You gave the asking price. Good on you for snagging a gem of a score 🔥

[@ElDabstroyero]

Thanks WIlly! That was probably my best score ever! Really a once-in-a-lifetime moment for me it feels like haha

[@gdelaguardia1988]

Que barbaro hermano, una suerte encontrar ese juego!!! Joyita !!

[@ElDabstroyero]

¡Gracias! ¡Un hallazgo único en la vida! 😊

[@AveryKiwi]

You missed out on that game a year ago? Hmm seems like where you live, there’s hardly any resellers. If that was In Cali, that game would have been gone the same day you have missed it.

[@ElDabstroyero]

Yep! Missed it a full year ago! You’re probably right, but the trade-off is you probably see rare stuff more often than we do out here would be my guess. I was just saying to the gf that I’d love to visit California again and do some thrifting!

[@themightymesprit7325]

Bro, Go Go Hypergrind (GameCube) for $1. Congrats Bro. Easily one of the rarest GameCube games on the system and a good one albeit a difficult one as well from what I heard. Crash Bandicoot 2 (PS1) is one of the best PS1 games ever made and easily the best Crash game ever made and my personal favorite in the franchise and NBA Jam (Genesis) is easily one of my favorite sports games although I still need practice with it. Either way Great Episode as always El Dabstroyero.

[@ElDabstroyero]

Thanks so much, JD! This one was a lot of fun and very little filler! You mentioned some of the highlights for sure! Still can’t believe that $1 game was waiting for me this whole time!

[@omegacomics3548]

Congrats my guy the fact it was still there is amazing

[@ElDabstroyero]

Thanks so much! It spent a year packed away in a box just waiting for me!

[@ElDabstroyero]

For anyone curious, last time when I missed this copy of Go Go Hypergrind was wayyyy back in episode 43: kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4i9dKGHhtdnaas

[@neilarnold5506]

Sweet way to begin the video with some Goosebumps , that really brings me back to being a kid - and even now I try to look out for them for a good price at sales to try to eventually complete the original set of books from my childhood. Gotta love seeing the hustle from the kid at that first sale, hope he did well from his stuff. Love digging through piles/containers of games at sales, always exciting since you never really know what you will come across. Need to try to focus this year when the time comes around, feel like I was off on my haggling skills this year gone, but need to refine and try to get it. Some fun games from that $75 lot. Especially seeing CIB (or very least in box) Genesis games. Very nice of the person to split up stuff from the NEs lot they had, I've seen some sales where it like all or nothing. Which I totally get, but kinda sucks in the same extent. I def would of grabed that Halloween PIkachu for $3 as well. I have had that feeling too, see an expensive game and have to fight against every urge to freak out just not to ruin the deal lol. Killer score though, any Gamecube game for $1 you can't go wrong with, but especially something like that, just bravo good sir. Think it's obvious what the find of the video would be, but aside from that I think it would have to be either NBA Jam or that Pikachu plush. Killer scores all around man, keep up the grind and hope all has been well with you and the family. Cheers dude. #Roadto2k

[@ElDabstroyero]

Always loved Goosebumps as a kid, so spooky lol. I'm trying to do that with Animorphs actually. Same here, for me the dig is so fun, love not knowing what I can find. It really was a once in a lifetime find haha - my heart was racing! And good picks, the plush is so cuteeee! Cheers and best wishes!

[@neilarnold5506]

@@ElDabstroyero I loved the Animorphs series, not one I see too often now, but have grab a couple of them when I have come across them

[@Retromicky82]

Great find I'm shocked it was still there, personally myself I don't consider it sealed anymore when the wrapping is damaged that much dnd so I consider just just great condition but that's me it's still a super rare find 😅

[@ElDabstroyero]

Believe me, I was (and am) shocked as well haha! I had basically given up hope on this one! Interesting and I think I agree, it isn’t actually sealed anymore - but damn it was close! One friggin tear!! But like you said, still amazingly rare!

[@vidaretrord]

i cannot stop watching your videos bro, It is very entertaining

[@ElDabstroyero]

thank you so much for all the love and for dropping comments! Happy to have you as part as the tag team! I definitely do my best to try to put out an entertaining video as my top priority :-)

[@GrailboundGaming]

Wow! A freakin $1!!! Congrats 🎉

[@ElDabstroyero]

My bests score ever! This one was unforgettable! Thanks so much!!

[@ArcadeZgames]

Had the same reaction when i found a rare game for the NES called Dragon Fighter its worth about $400 to $500 which was crazy i didnt know til i got home! The lot was a good deal anyway it was an NES + 50-75 games for $100

[@ElDabstroyero]

That’s awesome! The unknown scores always hit harder - feels like such a win when you get something rare on the cheap! Nicely done!

[@ronharness8612]

Gamechasers episode 3 I think Flinstones Nes game worth $1400 found for $6, little sampson $2000 found for $5 no ones beating those finds in the youtube gamesphere! Although gogo hypergrind for $1 is a top 10 find for sure! My best is NCAA FOOTBALL 14 PS3 for $1 and Tales of Destiny 2 for free worth $300

[@ElDabstroyero]

So true! I also remember when they found the abandoned video rental store that had all the old games inside! That is probably the greatest score I’ve ever seen! Congrats on your excellent pick ups! Sounds like you’ve had some awesome game hauls!

[@RedFaceeee]

My best find was Gotcha force for $3. No manual though

[@ElDabstroyero]

Damn, nice find! That’s an all-timer!

[@RedFaceeee]

@@ElDabstroyero I can understand the feeling you had finding that gem. When I found gotcha force felt unreal.

[@ElDabstroyero]

@RedFaceeee So true! It really is the peak thrill of the hunt when you find a gem at a great price - it’s what we live for as game hunters! 💪

[@RedFaceeee]

@@ElDabstroyero Absolutely

[@Sirnayooo]

I hate New York we dont have good yard sales here. They look up prices in your face over here :(

[@ElDabstroyero]

That is always painful! As soon as they bring out the phone and start checking eBay, it’s usually game over.

Because of ya'll's guys community he loves collecting... Thank you for that.. But i do have a question for yah... LOOOONG time ago (2008-2010) we had neighbors who brought my attention (his wife) to a game called Rule of Rose... If by AAAANY chance any of you happen to have it may i buy it from you (at a cheaper price) because online its going up as far as $2,000... Cheapest is $290

[@ElDabstroyero]

Oh wow that one is expensive! Is it any good? Hopefully someone out there can hook you up!

[@Jojosgems53]

Wow 😮 bro 😎 I can’t believe i say I’m committed 😂 on video and congratulations 🎉 it a surprise 😮 that tue game never sold after a year

[@ElDabstroyero]

Thanks so much!!! It was haunting me!!! I had to at least try to find it again and when it was still there I seriously couldn’t believe it!!! 🤪

[@Robbie_-gu8rd]

I must admit with the GameCube game you did the right thing, could have seen you offering more as a goodwill gesture and the seller querying its exact worth and refused the sale… it happens Plus, respectfully you need to recoup some of your losses from the Wii bins Well done dude, and you know what, glad it’s going to a genuine collector! Too many would resell it, ignore the haters 💪🏻

[@ElDabstroyero]

I appreciate the kind words, Robbie! like you said, it can be a tricky situation, if I offer more, he might start asking questions and then I may never make the sale. I can also see the flipside, where some people don’t like that approach, but like you said, I’ve gotten burned other times paying way more than I should have, so it balances out at the end of the day lol And it is a cherished part of my collection! One of my grail pieces 😍

[@WassilaMehouachi]

Brother, can you give me a gift? I am in love with video games, but in my life I have never even owned a gaming device. I play with my friends. I don’t know what to say.😂😢❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@ElDabstroyero]

Gaming with friends is the best! What gift can I give you, friend? Aside from the gift of more videos coming soon! ☺️

[@WassilaMehouachi]

My friend, you are the best in this field. I told you, I tried for years to buy a Play device to play, but my financial circumstances did not allow me to. I could not save money to buy a fine. My dream was to become the strongest player in the world. I was the best player on a local level, from KOF 94 to KOF. 99 fighting games, no one has been able to defeat me until now, and I am now 36 years old, and I am sorry I could not buy a PlayStation.💔​@@ElDabstroyero

[@ericenloe5245]

Since it was sealed I think its worth more than 600

[@ElDabstroyero]

That’s a good point, Eric, it may very well be worth more! The seal was a little bit torn on the bottom though, I’m not sure if that would detract from the price

[@GorTheMovieGod]

[@ElDabstroyero]

Haha so true!

[@robertlewis6021]

You don't feel guilty only giving them a dollar for that expensive game

[@ElDabstroyero]

No, not at all - but I do get some comments on here that seem to suggest I should feel bad or that I’m a scumbag or something. At the end of the day, the guy named his price. If you went to a car dealer and they offered you a car for $1, you’d jump at the chance - we all would. It sucks because obviously I’m not setting out to do any harm… and as someone who has gone to yard sales his whole life, this is pretty much the name of the game - like they say, “one person’s trash is another person’s treasure.” But your perspective may vary.

[@MadWlad]

@@ElDabstroyero facts. It's just free market and most guys just want to get rid of stuff. And just if a thing has a possible worth of X doesnt mean you actually get that amount of cash back. Guilt tripping is such a bad behaviour of people…
