You suck at math. It's around 20% off in most cases. Store got a $2600 deal cash, instead of slowly trying to sell all items for $3100-ish. That's how bulk sales work. And I'm sure the store got those items for peanuts in the first place.

Don't know if anyone could still benefit from this advice but.... I think I spotted two(?) copies of Transformers Devastation at around the 6 minute mark during the PS4 section, 3rd row (from top) on the right. If these are at a good price (I can't exactly see what's on the sticker), it might be worth looking at since at the time Activision didn't renew the license of several games including Deadpool and Transformers. Meaning they aren't available for purchase on PSN, Xbox and Steam anymore, and physical copies could be harder to find. So, if someone's around this store I'd suggest taking a look ;) Ps, Phoenix Resale, I do love your take on all this. Starting your collection from the ground up again. It makes me think back to the time I started my collection again. Thanks for sharing your adventures! :D

Can you imagine lol? His entrepreneurship is commendable, but if I was the business owner I'd kick anyone like this out, and would have other stores notified of this behavior or attempting arbitrage at every store, unless the reseller brought other items I could sell or trade for to make it worthwhile. It's nobody's right to come to a store and attempt arbitrage by scanning every item and looking to find hidden value so they can use it for their own business. Selling through hundreds of items to a reseller for 500-1000s in lost potential profit to the public is not worth a quick sale. And If I'm a local customer I'm mad, because guys like this are taking any unique, rare, popular, or difficult to find title out of circulation just so they can make more money for their business.

"Hey I know you have prices on these but I want to pay less because I'm a business genius and like haggling with my friend that owns a small store so *I* can make more money, Again, business genius and great friend. I'll even clean out the good stuff from the inventory before the grand opening so they're left with what I didn't want and then I'll raise the price of an item you sold me for less because you're my friend and you're being filmed. I'm so smart and kind." If he's your friend why not just pay what he asks? He's not your friend he's a business partner. This whole thing comes off as sleazy.

Bro let a reseller empty him out of his good inventory before his grand opening at a fraction of the price... It's obvious why this place went out of business in under a year. Him spending 2.6k does NOT help the store since you want interesting inventory to get locals to keep coming.

So i have a serious question. Why would you post a video of you getting games for much less than sticker price only to turn around and sell it on Amazon for more money. Meaning, why would anyone buy from you if they could just go and do the same thing and pay less.

The store owner is making his own decisions. He has allowed Caleb in, and turned down and countered offers. As Caleb says, this is because of relationships he has built doing this, and because it is a different market. The business owner would not be selling things where he is losing money. I am sure a $2,600 purchase is a pretty good sale for the owner either way. I am sure most of the items he sold he had way less than that into them.
