Getting The Glass Cases Filled With Video Games | SicCooper

[@kindermaschine2515]

You have one amazing collection Cooper.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

my personal collection? Or the stores inventory? or both? lol thanks man

[@mikebateman4632]

Awsome store

[@deandalziell9528]

It's looking cool now

[@brandonpixley2481]

you could have a case like the zipo one on top the counter for the gb and gba or ds

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

The one I have doesn't automatically turn unfortunately :/ it makes it so I can only put games on 3 sides because the 4th you can't see unless you're behind it lol

[@EdsRetroGeekOut]

Super seeing the store come together nice vid buddy! :-D

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

Thanks man!

[@Callam001]

Idk if thjs has been asked/answered but I was wondering 1/ how often will you put out new stock 2/ how often will you change prices of items

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

1.) I'll put out new stock every day, just depends how much I get I suppose. I'll put out whatever I can. 2.) I won't change prices ever. If I priced a game at a certain amount, that means I am OK with selling it for that. If a game goes up in value, then my customer has a chance of finding it for a good deal. If a price goes down, a customer can always ask if there is any wiggle room, and it just depends what its priced at, what I paid for it, what type of games it is, and how long I've had it. I will price new games as I get them, but I won't go back to old stock and re price.

[@Callam001]

siccooper good to know there's potential for people to find bargains. I hate when somehting goes up in price even just a few dollars and everywhere jacks up their prices

[@BlaizeV]

For the GBA games on the back counter just make a small sign using neon colored card pointing out that you have more GBA carts available for sorting through when asked. That should allow those looking for it not to miss it.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

a sign is a good idea, I'll see what I can come up with

[@dreamon3286]

Maybe for those "loose" common gameboy games that will be in the tub behind the counter, you can print out a small sheet of paper and tape it to the case or the wall next to the case letting customers know that you have more games in the back and to just ask to see them.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

a few have suggested this, its a good idea!

[@VideoGameDrones]

Put the extra gameboy games in a binder inside hockey card pages

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

I'm really not a fan of that way of storing them. Gamestar around here did that and I didn't enjoy looking through very much :/

[@DrSaltyPickle]

You should line the inside of the glass case in front with led lights so it’s easier to see

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

They have built in lights, but the cables are all cut and messed up. It looks pretty good in person, the camera makes it look a bit darker

[@game_master_rukia]

one of my game stores does that with gameboy games having them on a shelf as overstock games

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

Yeah, they are just too easy to steal to allow people to dig whenever lol Gotta be at the counter

[@jamesgoodson3078]

I think it would be really cool if you have in store leader boards for your arcade games and pin ball machines. Just a thought.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

I wish they would track it by themselves, but unplugging and moving them around clears it out.

[@Darule514]

Barbie Secret Agent = Day 1 Buy 😂

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

please do lol

[@mxignition3331]

wow that alot of games

[@JetLifeMovement]

Don't know if anyone else notice but at 7:58 the light on the ceiling behind Cooper turns on by itself lol Unless it's some motion sensor light lol

[@RickyRicardo135]

Stephen Sylliboy I noticed it too. Great, just great the store is haunted :O

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

the store is haunted lol. take a tour for the low price of $49.99!

[@JetLifeMovement]

Technically it would cost me $65.65 CAD, expensive tour LOL Keep up the good and hard work Cooper.

[@sneakymut]

What's your ebay account

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

I don't give it out publicly, plus its kind of dead at the moment. I haven't posted anything in over a month and I am down to averaging 0-1 sales a day lol

[@TheGr8nss]

Awesome dude. If you want some test customers before you open let me know.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

I have already run a few transactions, but haven't tested any trade ins yet

[@TheGr8nss]

siccooper Hey man I’m down to trade in stuff if you want to try it. I don’t live to far from where your store is at.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

can you shoot me a message on facebook? I can try to find time this week

[@TheGr8nss]

siccooper message sent

[@savagebeastb.m.f7156]

Where did you get the glass cases from , did you get them new , the cases to the left with nes games

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

I got them from a thrift store that was closing down near my house. I also got the counter where the computer is from them, and the counter top that my dad used for the things behind the counter with the TVs on top, plus a bunch of peg board, and my plush rack!

[@Jefftendo]

awesome display cases. Were did you get them?

[@xTechHockey]

You got this dude! Obviously you will be super busy, owning the store and such but will there be vlogs still? I really enjoy them, something to look forward to at work haha.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

I am going to continue doing vlogs as much as possible, but I can't say 100% that they will keep going forever

[@enriquemartinez1030]

Hi Cooper everything is looking good it is all coming together well done Cooper. Just I little idea if you are interested you could put a little sign up on the top of the gameboy glass cabinet saying We do have more gameboy title Please ask a staff member to see them thank you. I don't know something like that. You will be very busy and that way you don't have to remember to tell customers every time and potentially loose a customer. Love the vlog Cooper I enjoy your vlogs I'm like a little puppy wait at the front door for his owner to come home and when the little puppy sees his owner he goes crazy running around the house. that is me waiting for your vlogs

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

a sign is a good idea, I'm going to see what I can do. I already have a few things I have to get printed from office depot this week

[@jakelangner6173]

What is the name of your store and what city are you going to be located in?

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

Double Jump Video Games in Vancouver, WA

[@muimisauce]

im confused about something people really get motion sickness from watching a video lol by no means am i talking down on anyone who may i just found a little surprising wouldnt you get sick pretty much on any video you watch.

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

either way I am trying to not pace anymore lol

[@PartenJoe]

Instead of moving the more expensive CD based games somewher eeles why not just take the discs out of the more expensive ones like you did with the ds games and have the cds behind the counter just for those more expensive titles? And keep the empty cases out on the floor? That way you can keep 1 case for all the GBA and game boy games and you can keep them all together instead of keeping the cheaper ones seperate. It seems like you have a lot of empty space on the very bottom of the case so maybe all the cheaper GBA games will fit down there?

[@DoubleJumpVideoGames]

That empty space in the front glass cases is for SNES games, since I have over 450 of them. I'd rather leave the discs in as well for things like the portland retro gaming expo. I don't want to have to take them out for the store, then put them all back in to go to the expo for 2 days, then get back and take them all out again

[@PartenJoe]

Not saying take every disc out of the case, just the more pricey ones that way the cases stay with the other games and it dosen't confuse people. And you don't have to make a seperate area for them since you say you're imlited on space.
