Hello Phoenix Resale i watch your show abd Retro rick and ricky and most of your friends. I respect you guys alote for making a good video and making money. Back in the 90s& early 2000s. I use to do that. I was good i would make money & store credit & get consoles abd games. Last tine i did that was in 2016 and 2017

[@fidelsolis6070]

Its way tougher now to hustle and flip games especially in A Cold State like Illinois. But if you ever around Chicago Illinois. Let me know because i have a Large collection of games. I can sell a few of them to you. But i think if you see my game collection you'll be like disappointed that u might not be able to make a profit. Blessings

48 hours after releasing the vid deter louck next time

[@Gigachad-hb7ji]

@@fidelsolis6070 You are better off selling to gamestop than that excuse of a human being. Pheonix resale extorts people for deals by pointing cameras at them.

[@cristobalgallardo4185]

Hey Caleb, I'm sorry to say that the Tsum Tsum Festival Joy-Con is fake. The decorations are not THAT white, they are ver subtle on the originals, and also the back is missing all the logos and info for the joy-con itself.

[@vernalbug]

I love watching Phoenix Resale always puts me in a good mood 😊 Also Retro Rick, is really fun to watch too!

[@fidelsolis6070]

Cool. Me too. I see him and Retro rick and the others

[@rootedinretro1995]

I love my local disc replay. As a reseller, I always try to maximize the buy 5 get one free. Stack on the 20% off and you start to get some margin especially with their fair prices. Also, the employees at my store will help with little things. Free cartridge cases, buying multiple games and pricing both at the lower price, matching lower price but letting me get the higher quality game

[@DP12321]

Glad you told them about the fake carts. Hate to see the proliferation of bootlegs.

[@Ingeronic]

Riff editing your videos has made them so good, I've been watching you for over a year now and it just works so well, especially when you ask him to do something and we just get a note pop up saying "Nope" or a little video saying that your busy. I look forward to your next videos and hope you get to go visit Retro Rick's store at some point, would love to see you go do a massive trade in for credit and pick up some of his Switch collection he traded in. Keep it up man, good videos, interesting content, glad your finger healed after the skateboarding "mishap" on Pixel Squad video the other week, looks pretty bad.

[@albertzwettler2734]

I was very surprised to see that you were in my town. Thanks for stopping in Champaign IL!

[@kingmattDub]

I thought the same thing. Was just there yesterday😂

[@JShadow6661]

Culvers is definitely a top tier underrated franchise

[@bro8488]

I think we should all just take a moment to appreciate the money and effort Caleb puts into these videos that we all love so much cant wait for this video much love to all of you by the way!

[@JacobLacher]

Gotta thank Riff too he knocks it out

[@Publicspeaking-xk4xx]

Riff def takes a good amount of the moneyyy

[@Alexander_l322]

@@Publicspeaking-xk4xx can you blame him? I would too for working with this sap.

[@sheluvsnackie]

All Caleb does is film. Riff edits everything, riff has the harder work

[@absolazy]

I mean if he’s smart he uses his KZbin revenue to buy these games n stuff so it’s not really him paying it’s us😭 we view and like and comment which makes him more money

[@Hephaestus_God]

15:35 ish, you should definitely get Nier: Automata for your collection (left side) "Divinity Original Sin 2" is one of the best turn based, RPG games out there. It's one of my favorite games as well. There are so many ways to play and do what you want. (Not talking bout JRPGs) It's a rather long game, but if you play the games in your collection then I would definitely play that one.

[@julianadeen2995]

watching this a year after it released so dont dog the prices were different at time of filming but that first store had 2 copies of pokemon black for 64 bucks. That is an incredible price for those games. Today they're wroth like 120-200 dollars

[@danchadwick3992]

Glad you finally picked up "Unravel Two" - me and my missus love playing this co-op and I've heard you mention playing co-op with your wife before. Enjoy 👍🏻

[@perryturpin766]

Riff had me laughing so hard, keep up the great content guys

[@RunN1st9]

Weird but I appreciate you trying to be sensitive (whispering) when you see people around you when you record. Great channel!

[@Yuan]

watching this video while my kids are asleep, the screaming kids in the background had me doing constant 180 neck turns to check LOL

[@ivanfernandez5847]

I cannot be the only one that loves watching the Riff interactions in the video lol

[@sheluvsnackie]

I already know this gonna be a banger

We live in the same area. Thats cool were finally on the map!

[@バイク雄]

ゲームボーイとアドバンスはマジでテンション上がるわw

[@ByxzVR]

Hi phoenix! Love the videos. I know this is a year old but i just wanted to point out the tsum tsum joycon you bought is indeed a fake. The back of the joycon doesnt have the nintendo watermark/logo and info which all genuine joycons have. Also The screws on the back have regular phillips head screws on the other hand a genuine joycons are fitted with tri point screws. I hope you didnt sell this as genuine but if so its ok. these are tricky to spot sometimes

[@drwarpp8585]

I've had Culver's 2x in the last 3yrs I've lived in Illinois and got Food Poisoning both times. They were also 2 different Culvers

[@51YAHOOGLE]

The stamps are definitely so the worker scans the front instead of the back

[@numberoneappgames]

I love a fully stocked gaming store. :0

[@Bananasforthesoul]

You definitely should’ve went to live action games when you were in Champaign. Best place in the area!

[@MediaDeckStore]

Tip: always be on the lookout for DOOM (2016) for switch. It sells $50+

[@xamurai00]

Technically you should also be flipping to cover the cost of your gas to the store.. technically speaking of course!

[@dennysperez4337]

Anyways thanks for inspire me to try to build up my business you are the best😁👊🏽

[@chrisz198234]

I love watching your stuff I'm a switch Collector I have 181 physical switch games

[@cheese6536]

Please please please play Divinity Original Sin 2! It is one of my favorite games of all time and if you are into fantasy games, it's so good.

[@Fire-Abyss]

I can't believe how much Elsie sounds like Riff lol.

[@jessebenitez6783]

I think I got Doom 64 for $3.00 they really had a good deal on nintendo switch e-shop.

[@CorySzamier]

NHL 2002 manual goes for like $15…not all sports games are worthless.

[@frankflammini6935]

Fighting Climax… that was a missed opportunity for a ridiculous joke 😂

I live in indy... so it was kinda weird that he went there haha

[@Corporalfork]

Unravel two is fun. My wife and i really enjoyed it

[@iu_officer2235]

You were in Avon, Indiana. Wish I would have seen you to say hi.

[@SargeWolf010]

If I had to phantom a guess game stores and the like are putting those stickers on barcodes to keep people from buying them to resell...

[@SargeWolf010]

Also check you IG DMs for recommended games to try/buy

[@kevinbatsel6840]

What do you meant? by origiinal boxes?? also games from Europeon or other contries? thanks

Salt and sanctuary on the Switch is great... But 100$ in the last store 🤑

[@adamhoyt2264]

What is the process by which you got the documentation to sell on eBay and Amazon?

[@juancasas9376]

Do you factor in what you spend on gas to go to all these places ?

[@Kushking42000]

What app do u use to scan the games

[@tyriedle2658]

I got a gameboy and I got a gameboy advance and I got a ps3 and a xbox360 and I got a GameCube and I got a nintendo64 I got about 400 games

Nice I’m from Illinois !!

Elsie kinda looks like editor Riff

[@jesusgaston3457]

Cristales you should buy it best on ps4 because I'm the switch it has one problem it takes a lot to enter load battles and because it an rpg it has a lot of battles in the PS4 or ps5 it takes nothing to load the battles

[@dlowro11itup]

Shout out riff ‼️‼️

[@lorxr9560]

Hey Phoenix, you should try Dark souls remastered for nintendo switch, maybe you'll like :D

[@suprsonicmariogalaxy]

Does anyone know which disc replay he went to? I've been to one in Illinois but I don't think it's the same one

[@Thunderboid]

also did u see the geese at disc replay?

[@jasoncarr2162]

I'm having zero luck finding any games at Goodwill or flea markets. Frustrating.

[@kyleboss]

When you’re doing this does Amazon factor in your shipping in the fees? I’m just curious cause you never mentioned shipping cost

[@travisbishop3282]

It seems like the app he uses does figure in the cost of shipping along with Amazon's cut, since he often says the profit point after the cost of the associated fees.

[@electro5711]

caleb you should buy the super smash bros bundle and then next episode you should have 250 as a resale goal

[@tiou6089]

Is there any difference between Europe version of games and the American one? Cause you said Luigi’s Mansion was a turnoff due to the European origin of the game.

Have U ever been here in California game hunting ? 🤔

[@christianbichlmeier8442]

The Disney Joycon is fake. U can spot it on the back where is no CE Sign and no other signs. When its clean like this and no writing on it, its Fake

[@pctove]

Seeing my local illinois disc replay in a video was crazy 🤯

[@andrewwatts6974]

Same here

[@kingmattDub]

I just thought the same thing. I was there yesterday😂

[@ChuloAA]

You're 100% right about Culver's that place SLAMS also it always makes me laugh when I see a million different sports games in a wide view of a game shelf. Like all the Maddens and 2Ks just hold 0 value

[@ChubbieGuY]

They put stickers on barcodes so that new workers don’t scan those by accident and it messes up inventory. It’s for check out and putting items in inventory. When I was a manager at amazon we did the same thing. A lot of items don’t use the UPC directly on them.

[@fidelsolis6070]

Do u live in the midwest or Illinois. I'm selling a few games too.

[@davidpramenkovic]

Great video Caleb, you and riff doing a great job. Very interesting to watch, like this kinda long videos.

[@somepl3b]

why the dog need to come 3.5 hour driving and you spending 1 hour in each store that you dig a lil in so like 3 hours then you probably didn't walk him a lot on this trip so literally 10+ hours for the dog just sitting in the car

[@MrDaitaitrang]

Sorry to say Caleb that I think that Disney Tsum Tsum joycon is a fake. The pattern on the real joycon is more subtle, I didn’t see the Nintendo trademark on the back of the joycon, and the joycons didn’t have the Tri wing screws either.

[@JobiWorld]

Chris talus , lmao it's pronounced Chris tails "Cris Tales"

[@tylerorsz1994]

You made me get back into collecting retro video games and I couldn’t thank you enough! My switch collection is up to 25 games and my game boy advance collection is up to 20 games with 2 Complete in boxes! I also just got a GBA SP Ags 101 that I love!

[@fidelsolis6070]

Really thats cool. Im tied with you on NesSwitch games. On Ds im way off

[@tylerorsz1994]

@@fidelsolis6070 Thats awesome! I love building my collection up! It’s tough that the retro gaming scene is through the roof now but I just get what I can when I have extra money and appreciate what I do have in my collection already when I have to go through droughts of not getting games for months at a time sometimes but there’s nothing better then finding switch games on sale when Amazon or Walmart have good deals in the site!

[@fidelsolis6070]

So true i can relate. With all this inflation and winter around i barely buy games. But when i do ita mostly Nintendo switch games. I barely see stuff on sale at Wal-Mart nust on black friday.

[@reillyhurley8939]

What app does he use to scan the barcodes and get a price estimate after fees?

[@Morgaine76]

I don't know if this is still relevant to you, but I think he uses the Amazon Seller app. Not sure, but I think so.

[@JamesGowan]

RIFF was a little more annoying than usual. BTW, Caleb looks like Justin Timberlake so,… no… he’s not ugly.

[@richstertrixter]

Nice going on getting Dragon Quest Builders, Caleb! I'm sure you're gonna have a blast with that game! And then sink 100's of hours and probably buy DQ Builders 2! I remember when I tried getting into Minecraft, got soo lost on what to build and how to survive, but DQ Builders really eased me into building step by step! Also comes with great plot!

[@fidelsolis6070]

Game and character is retro now

[@eternalknight1671]

Damn Riff came to play today. Always a good balance. Appreciate ya Riff!

[@joserobles2620]

Just an idea if you haven't already done so, how about a video of your top finds you flipped all of 2022? Start off with showing the find then give a little insight on how well it sold for you.

[@RiverCityFlips]

Caleb, really enjoying these mission Switch videos. Keep up the great content and give Riff another raise!

[@custardchucker859]

Do a vid where you start with $100 and see if its possible to make money ONLY buying and selling to/from pawnshops/second hand stores/etc.

The only guy I know that gets really excited for 7 bucks profit....

[@BrokenR2]

Disc replay is a very good place to buy retro games. Over by me in Michigan I have two. Sometimes keep an eye out for a game that you want and if they have multiple copy's check the price some are cheaper.

[@twig-e6431]

So close to Wisconsin where I stay. So many great video game stores in the Kenosha, Racine, Milwaukee, Madison, Oconomowoc, Waukesha, and Menomonee Falls areas. Need to watch the rest of these. I was going to do an Illinois trip eventually for more video game hunting.

Amazing series, I follow you from Italy. Here, having no Pawn Shop, it is very difficult to do the same thing.

[@Boxnoob]

Hate to break it to you brotha but the Tsum Tsum controller is a fake housing replacement. the shapes should be Clear with a shine to them when it hits the light (whitish sheen) Anyways great content keep it up!

[@CaxsRL]

Imagine he sold the pikachu plush from his mom on whatnot LOL

[@braddrcrushalot3785]

In future videos, can Editor Riff please give his opinions on the games acquired when Phoenix is placing on the shelf? I think a Lolz or Nice Filler would have been perfect when placing the GI Joe game for instance.

[@Kikibrat2]

They got rid of our Disc Replay here in Springfield IL, I am glad to see they are still around. One of my favorite places to go.
