Want to start accumulating vintages

Price of a game boy nintendo on ebay:
ebay.com/p/Nintendo-Game-Boy-Launch-Edition-Gray-Handheld-System/219493215?iid=282693130869

999,89 $

What is the rule in order to sell vintage at the best price? The box must not be opened?


Also vintages profits basically on strong human emotion: nostalgia.

In the same way as fomo profits from greed and fear.

Any suggestion about ''what'' to start to stocking it up and lass it in perfect conditions (new, not used) in order to resell later on?

Magic the gathering? Which set of figurines / album could be the most valuable?

>Using , for .
How do you even say that. Like for 3.5 (or 3,5 for fags), can you still pronounce it 3 point 5? or what

this is not important bro, I am trying to accumulate paper shit and store it to resell at a x10

Magic the gathering is the wy to go?

I would buy some BTC, wait a few decades and then sell it on eBay because some people will feel nostalgic about it. It's gonna be a good vintage item.

Trying to sell my original game boy right now op haven't had much luck. It might need a LCD replacement but the games are perfect quality.

Is it in the box and never used?
If it's not in the box and it's used you can't sell it to 1000$

I do this as a pro and won't talk to you about it kek

Does anyone have the original picture for the one on the left?

go on photoshop and ENLARGE image. Gimp if you are nerd tech savy

What is your niche? Games? Which niche is the most? the most profitable?

Nah it's used with some sun damaged (dead lines) I only want 100 but I'm selling it together with the games which are where the value lies for 300 (7 games including Pokémon red and yellow)

if it would have been never used you would have sold it for 1300$

this is my game boy from when I was a kid and I played the fuck out of it. Sad to see it go but want to add to my stack. I had a look at doing an LCD replacement myself but cannot be fucked plus I don't have tools here. Better off selling it and when I make it I can buy all that stuff back if I still feel a need.

I've often thought of buying up multiples of different commerical goods storing them brand new and reselling them later for a profit. I'm sure others do this but any thoughts anons?

Buy MTG, limited supply, long lasting fan base and even if WOTC crashes and burns the old school crowd will still buy the old cards plus the majority have a fuckload of money as they were nerds as kids. I flip collections on ebay as a side hustle but always make sure to keep reserved list cards as they only go up.

So OP I'm going to let you know, you're basically like 5 years too late on cashing in on the retro game phase. Companies are releasing their old libraries a lot more now, so the originals have far less value now. You can now find many retro games for practically nothing, and the real valuable ones are essentially impossible to get cheap without paying the the ass yourself for one. Once you go to sell, the price would have stagnated and you would make basically no profit.

Extremely used gameboys are a dime a dozen, you'll probably get $20 for it. If you had some kind of collector's edition gameboy that's barely used or unopened those are worth the most. For example Japanese gameboy lights.

What if you repair and you put into a box as it was never opened? Do custmers realize your cheating and the item is not untouched? Because if it seems like untouched you sell it as ''new''
It's a scam tought, and there is no revenue scamming people, because the Karma will catch you.
One should stay away from hurting people don't deserve it

For cartridge-era stuff, yeah.
Wii is probably the best thing to accumulate for at the moment. Its nostalgia factor is growing steadily and Nintendo stuff generally tends to appreciate well.

I used to clear out Gamestops when they were getting rid of all their Gamecube games for $3-$5 a piece and no one gave a shit
Most of those games are worth much more these days

Sports games are the shitcoins of games no matter the era, unless maybe its from Nintendo or 90s/early 00s Midway

The customers are autistic man children who study this shit like it means something. They'll know you're trying to trick them.

Do they have old libraries so they can do the games whenever they want? This can be also applied to phisical games
Yours is not an argument

Where to find them cheap ?

those kind of deals happens always in person? How do the owner protect himself against paypal chargeback and frauds?

P.S. don't do that: imagine you are the seller and you need money for the cure of your children, you realize you have a vintage item and you sell it on eby. Pajeet X scams you.
How would you feel?
That's why you must not hurt/scam other people, even if it looks like an innocent thing to do to you, you can never know what is behind the scenes.
Any bad action the karma will process to you, in this or in ather lives

The only reason Magic cards are so expensive is because a bunch of Mtg fags got rich off of btc because of mtgox and now the only people paying thousands of dollars for black lotuses are crypto millonaires look it up

I mean they have literally released better versions of the games and even physical copies of some harder to find ones. See: Chrono Trigger for DS is actually better than the original. The only thing the SNES version has over the remake is nostalgia, but most people would just opt for the DS version since its more available and the definitive version. There are a lot of retro games that are still worth a lot, but their prices maintain relative stability and don't go up much. I'm not saying you won't make a profit, but the profit won't be anything compared to 5-10 years ago when you could just hit up Gamestops or even garage sales and pick up gems for $1 each and sell them back for $100. That was a golden era.

Yeah no doubt which is why I'm selling it used with the games and the travel case and ac adapter.
I'm selling it used with images of the screen condition. Nah I'd never try to scam my fellow man-children. I know these people came from broken homes just like me and are trying to reclaim a time when they were happy and their parents were not yet divorced.

Like if I was still into playing games I would just get an emulator maybe the nes or SNES classic if I was desperate.

Magic the gathering with Mtgox?
Which connection?

Gotta catch those Nintendo pumps. I have 10xd certain amiibo when they were hot. Im holding onto goldmegaman collector editions new in box and mega yarn yoshis. They are already 3x what i paid but no real demand. Condition is everything to these collectors so you need to keep everything in a climate controlled room out of the suntlight and in cases/tubs to keep dust off. Shit still happens though. Its hard to keep shit mint for 20 years.

Are you the same stupid monkey that made a thread about iPods the other day? Have you STILL not figured out how to reply to posts? This is the type of person that comes to this fucking hellhole garbage dump of a board. Third world street shitters that can't even figure out a simple thing like replies or IDs on Jow Forums who are on the lookout for electronics to sell at their curbside bazaars in Mumbai.
