Love those unexpected yard sales video game finds! Gramma comes through.
Good stuff see you on the next
Amazing pick up! What an awesome grandma!
Beetle Adventure Racing is one of the very best racing games ever made! Price has gone up on it as well. And Monopoly is surprisingly valuable.

My favorite was n64 lot I am going for a full set. The gameboy advance sp that was cool that she played it. Yeah your right found a og charger for sp at my thrift store but when I do find them they never have chargers and have to buy third party ones. Just found yo kai watch 3 for 3ds for 28 bucks at my game store and sold it for 250. I was shaking while looking at it with excitement. Ties my best flip. Do you guys have that yet for the collection.
people collect Playboy to the articles haha. Great video.

its crazy how the elderly take good care of things. my dad still has my childhood gameboy. im sure he still has all the games too
Awww Elisa! 🙁 You could tell that you were distracting watching the couple with the dolls (half looking at the books). That was an awesome score at the end though! 👏 Very cool grandma! Sadly I don't get to go to any yard sales as I work during the prime hours for them 😔 but I did hunt around at a thrift store recently and picked up a Lalique glass figure for $1.95 plus tax (they didn't spot the etched signature on the side of the base). 👍

I was pretty disappointed for sure. Everything was in nice condition at that sale. I hope to find some Moon Dreamers, especially someday. My grandma had a nice collection, but I think they were tossed or donated. Nice find on the Lalique glass. May the thift be in your favor 😀

@@jrpgwife The lost would-be treasures from childhood. *sigh* I know that one.
Seeing you miss out on those dolls at the start was so very sad. You wanted them to enjoy them and not profit :( I guess its just the way these days. Another great video guys, I'm sure you'll find more great girls hauls at other sales.
Missed out on a snes lot at a yard sale this weekend. That s the way the game chasing goes.
I had that same feeling last year when I walked up and seen an older lady picking up 2 xbox one controllers out of a .50 box. She said, "I wonder if my grandson could use these, well, if he can't its only a $1". Made me feel a little better that it was going to her grandson lol.
In the past, we have been late to a garage sale and saw the people ahead of us getting the stuff we want. I have no shame so I will walk up and ask if they want to make a profit on a few of them without listing on eBay, etc. it works about half the time 😅 Very excited to hear you guys will be on whatnot. We sell on there as well. Bookmarked your first show 👍🏻

Feels so bad for Elisa on the first sale, especially losing out to a potential reseller (got to have that bit of hope that it was someone checking a collection list or something, although doubtful). Shame to hear the SD card was corrupt, would of been awesome to see what was missed out (or not) on. Can't argue with some N64 games for $5 each (well 4 I guess lol). Shame I missed out on the WhatNot stream, would of been cool just to hang out and see you guys, hope you did well though for sure. Sweet Chip n' Dale plush. The two best pieces of advice I would ever give someone when it comes to Yard Sales would be 1) always ask about what your looking to find 2) NEVER judge a sale by it's cover. When I do get stuff brought out on a ask, mainly if they have games say at the sale already and it more stuff, I normally try to gauge it from their own opinion on what they would be happy for, since in the end if they are happy with it, AND you can get a good price double whammy. Grandma had some very good taste for sure, cool granny all the way. Def have to go with the GBA lot seeing not only was it on an ask but also from a unlikely (if I can use that for this one) source. Many people think older people know nothing about games and have no interest, but this goes to show, just like the sale itself you should never judge a book by its cover. Great video, killer scores all around. Sorry to Elisa again on the stuff she missed out on at the first sale. Keep up all the amazing work and see you for the next one. #Roadto14k
It’s worth your time to purchase the matching remote for vcrs as long as you test the vcr to work first. Used to sell hundreds of these. If you include rca & the remote you’ll sell for twice as much in half the time.
Great day of garage sales. The last garage sale was the Best Buy of the day I think.
Yeah the sandisk failure rate has slowly been creeping up in the last few years.

Great video, but since when are toys solely for girls or boys? It's 2023, I think we can leave that mentality in the past, no?
I would have felt guilty paying 75 to the lovely lady, knowing it was worth a lot more. She didn't know the value of what she had. it's been great watching your video's but I'm sorry this one doesn't sit right with me.

Totally understand, it's not for everyone. We gave her what she was asking. Almost every person we deal with at yard sales is super nice, so we make sure everyone is good with the offer each time. We also understand that we can't possibly make everyone happy on KZread with our garage sales. If we had offered $100, then there would be just as many people saying we should have offered more. In the end, in order to keep doing this, funding the collection, and making videos, we HAVE to get a deal. Otherwise we wouldn't last long paying retail. 😊

They told her they would make an offer but when she brought it out she had a price in mind. They paid her asking price. $75 for this lot at a yard sale is pretty fair in my opinion.
@avrilwilliams252

My point is offer a fair price for the item as you know it's value, the lady clearly didnt. I understand you need to make a profit but don't take advantage. She was happy because she didn't know better. Also you video clearly shows you made the offer, she didn't set the price. There's making a profit and ripping someone off....
I mean now u know how ppl feel when u keep and horde stuff then sell it for 3 times the price it's a give or take world
