I for one am still really enjoying your videos.
It has even made me check out your ebay store.
Haven't bought anything from you yet

It does seem like you are rushing to ask them RIGHT away if they have games
Maybe even 120 seconds of looking before you ask might help

Think using "not in my budget" is more then likely going to piss off regular vendors. Weekend newbies may buy into it but regulars are not going for it. See the new episodes didn't make it on here yet.

Nice find for $40. Beats flea markets any day of the week.

WOW that is incredible, and by far the best find i have ever seen you have. Good job, those games looked pristine. Hope they made it home in that same condition lol. Just seeing you put them around your bike handles was freaking me out.lol You soooooo need a car bro.

Amazing buy, and soak that one up for awhile, those kinds of finds are getting few and far between. Congrats!

yeah, you putting them on your handle bars and shoving them back in those containers had me freaking out. You need to get one of those bike hitch carriers they use for kids. You can cram all kinds of stuff in one of those.

What freaked me out the most was that you put the games on the cement and then stacked them on each other. I agree with Nistle though. I would have asked for price looked at maybe 2 or 3 and got the hell out of there. Even if you ended up buying a box with no game in it it's still would have been worth it. Totally awesome find dude. Congrats!

He he i was thinking the same thing. When i find something this good i make a quick glance, give em money and hide them before some joe shmoe walks down the road and puts his nose in my business. "der those are worth alotta money on da internet" Dont think it can happen then read what almost happened to me in this thread here>

http://www.nintendoage.com/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=10&am...

But i understand why you took your good ole time showing off each title. (bunch of viewers were complaining about you not taking enough time for each game you hold lol) But with a score like this, i wouldnt have risked it. But it did make a nice suspensful view for the watcher and you handled yourself well. Glad it all worked out for you. 

Great job

Anyone know why I've been getting some dislikes on the video?

I thought it was Jealousy, but I'm not sure.

I think I need to make a collection video soon or maybe a wrapup video to clear up the fact that I kept a good chunk of those.

Some people might be getting the wrong idea, and think I bought those purely to sell them later.

What do you guys think?

Venture to say some will be envious of that score and dislike the fact you stepped in it. Others here mentioned there skin crawling how you tossed the games around. When you collect these type of items handling them would have been a bit more cautious. The plug for ebay at the end and the fact you are a reseller prior would sapport peoples idea of you buying to profit. No matter what, it was a good score and congrats again. Enjoy watching your videos because like seeing how others go about there hunting. If you were in my backyard it would be for recon purpose only...lol As far as the series goes your etiquette is poor from time to time. In some situations you need to just give them the courtesy and keep it moving. Mentioned some critiques prior on here. This thread is more to gather viewers then to receive feedback. Nothing wrong with the plug though. Keep up the hunting and will continue to follow

All well made points. I really don't talk with people much face to face. You don't really realize your faults until you make a yutube series and people point them out for you. Hopefully I can work on that and fix all my problems eventually.

In other news, new video!

Hope you guys enjoy it
