This was a gamble but paid off big....we should make 100s off of these cards after we resell them to add more money to the game fund! Always on the hunt for retro games, vintage toys and 80s / 90s nostalgia! Thank you guy as always for coming along with me on my live video game and toy hunt thrifting adventures!

If you're wanting to know more about your Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh cards you should talk to your buddy Tendo.

[@retrorick]

good call...thanks for that!

Looks like someone got mad at their kid. And donated their cards.

[@JuanGrande386]

Which teaches the kid nothing because the parent paid for it!

[@dtwduuvaaall6865]

@@JuanGrande386 very true "I'm so mad at you I'm going to donate these cards i spent hundreds of dollars on for you to goodwill!"

You passed a 1st edition card at 18:31 and another 1st edition one at the bottom of the box at 21:35 also you passed a card from expedition (e reader series) at 21:15 Update: just found another one, 1st Edition Phanpy @ 15:26

[@SteveBrandon]

Thanks to last week's episode having inspired me to dust it off, I've been enjoying playing the copy of Chibi-Robo that I've had for around 14 years but never got around to playing. If you're wondering why I got it in the first place just to not play it, my brother gave me his Gamecube and several games including Chibi-Robo when he got a Wii and I think I thought that I had actually played it because I conflated Chibi-Robo with Super Magnetic Neo on Dreamcast. About Driver: San Francisco, I suspect the reason Ubisoft hasn't brought it back for Steam or console digital stores is that all of the cars were licensed and re-licensing the cars might be more costly than it's worth for bringing the game back. I'm glad I have my physical XBox 360 copy that I bought when it was new.

[@retrorick]

Nice Steve! I still need to give chibi robo a try!

[@JuanGrande386]

Vhs tip I've learned recently- keep an eye out for weird 80s horror films. Pieces, The Howling, Silent Night Deadly Night, etc. And odd balls like Kiss Meets The Phantom At The Park.

good score on the cards rick! sleeve up all the evolution base set cards, they all have some value. epically the pikachus and charmanders.

Welcome to Portland Goodwill game prices, been like this forever, which makes it pretty much impossible to flip games around here.

[@4packdaddy]

I bought chibi robo from a local game store about 2 years ago for $45. Wow prices have changed!

[@Marty-uv7ep]

Driver San Francisco is awesome!! Childhood favorite of mine

i need to give it a shot!

[@andyvs3925]

Been going to good Will for a week now and found 2 games for my collection and 1 res evil 5 steelbook, that i flipped within 15 mins of listing it. Thx Rick you inspired this.

[@lukasbiktjrn4822]

For the Pokemon cards... You need too look at the bottom right for the star the star symbol are rare cards and although they might not be super expensive they can still hold some value. Also the symbol next to that is the symbol of which booster pack they came from. Base sett and base sett 2 didn't have a symbol there besides the rarity symbol

[@nelsonsmellson2719]

One of my favorite goodwills for game hunting raised all their game prices to $10. So sure enough, I find stacks and stacks of games there because no one is buying them at that price.

[@alexhampson9684]

You had a few good cards in there - make your money back just on the Pokémon bulk. Of course the full arts you pulled were worth something but I did see a 1st edition pineco and at 21:18 there was a skyridge trainer (bottom right had the mountain logo). That card probably doesn’t have huge value but it’s the last set printed by wizards of the coast. The dialga platinum reverse is worth like $14 too

[@connorrussell2084]

nice find rick, but yea when it comes to the yugioh cards, 1996 is just the date of when yugioh started, not when those cards were printed

[@goodcommunitylife]

My Monday night is not complete without Retro Rick!

I agree

[@picknsht2044]

There was a dinosaur pbs DVD worth about 30 next to that game... some pbs obscure shows are huge

Hey Rick that other copy of morrowind is the game of the year edition and is worth a little more then the standard version because it includes all the expansion packs 😀

You can thank/blame Macklemore for increasing demand at Thrift Shops. All my good finds were before that song, "Thrift Shop" was a number 1 hit. BTW have you seen Betamax cassettes?

About curse, consider mating it with an instruction book only on ebay and official liner notes.

[@donharalson8880]

Go to more rural area pawn shops ,like ,wherever the country people on the football team that you played were ,go to that town check the game exchanges too even GameStop I find 99 cent games all the time that are 10 to 20 dollars online selling on sites that aren't eBay or Amazon. That's funny what you'll find out in the country 20 mi away you won't find anywhere in your town

[@nelsonsmellson2719]

The scores are at the flea markets. I bought a large bag of vintage gi joe clothes and accessories for $5. I’m buying games at .50-$1. I recently also bought Pokémon saphire, ruby and FireRed for $20. This same guy is bringing me ps1 games for $10 every week. Screw goodwill. EDIT: how can I forget this weekends finds, two CIB Gameboy games and one still factory sealed for $10 each.

You as the parent should've been going to the teacher looking for compensation. Teachers have no right to throw away your kids property..... that you or your wife actually paid for

[@ObscureGamesandConsoles]

The reason Driver San Francisco is going up in value is because it's the last game in the series and was pulled from all digital store fronts. The only way to play it is if you have a physical disk. This goes for the PC port as well. Glad I got my complete copy from GameStop for $17 a couple years ago.

[@SuperNicktendo]

Heh I found a whole bag full of Pokémon cards a couple of years ago when they were worth pennies. Didn't bother picking them up. That's a pretty significant haul and I hope you can unload them before the hype goes down

[@SheddysGaming]

I once bought 45 alternative CDs in a binder at the Conway goodwill for $6.50. I live near Mountain Home now and these Goodwill's are garbage compared to those. I've heard that the employees google and buy/resale a lot. Sounds like conspiracy but.. I wouldn't be surprised. I know there are WalMart employees around here flipping heavily discounted items. It's common knowledge.

[@expensivecardboard]

I would keep those odd horror games, especially the ones that you can only find on certain system. one thing about horror collectors they tend to spend a lot of money on the games and what I see horror games values will go up and always will retain a certain value point.

[@expensivecardboard]

@@videogamepolak0 Absolutly . gotta look into the VHS Horror movies some of them are insainly expensive. The ones to look out for our the "low budget" or indi ones that bring a premium

[@xschx1]

My goodwill would have sold this box of cards for $150 and that would be after they pulled out some singles and put them in the case for $60 each. They are crazy greedy with everything there and it's all free and donated to them. Used xbox 360 last week for $150, a mario cd/game zip up case for $50. Everything is usually dirty too, at least wipe it down for asking top dollar

[@theyo-kaiguy]
