On episode #50 of Video Game Collectors Podcast, Josh and Matt Go over WATA's new pricing structure, along with CGC's Pricing, and VGA's pricing to compare them all and look at current grading time estimates for all.

Along with that, we look at some more notable sales on HA and Ebay. Also, we look at some more pop reports and our thoughts on them.

To cap it off we explain Dan's master plan to rule the universe, and why quantum fusion helps make the perfect milkshake. All that and more on Video Game Collectors Podcast #50 😁

On Episode #49 of Video Game Collectors Podcast, We Look at some notable sales for the week of 1-10-23. Josh also dives deeper on things to look for in WATA population reports. We shouldn't just glaze over the numbers and not look deeper. There are a lot of really rare games out there that I think people thought were really common :-)

On Episode #48, Josh and I look back on Portland Retro Gaming Expo 2022. We had such a blast and it was great to see everyones face in real life again! We had fans like our 5th biggest fan Michael show up, say hi, and even buy some games! Even the man himself Dan "because he had to..." Kaplan was there! If you missed out, you missed out.

Wata Unveiled their new case design, CGC started accepting submissions at the show, and Josh pooped his pants.....(I honestly don't know, but he might have!)...

Also, we have some great game collecting  events coming up in March as well like SideQuest Expo: https://allevents.in/portland/sidequest-expo/200023833806246?ref=footer-up-eventlist

And Josh now works at PWCC as gaming director?...or something like that...he is around video games.

Video Game Collectors Podcast #47 Welcomes Jason from Mynty. We take our first look at Mynty and what they are about to release! From what I have seen so far, this is going to take video game pricing to the next level! This encompasses so many things that you could want in not only pricing games, but tracking, keeping collections, and potential future forums and video game information. I love that people like Jason are out there creating things that they want as a collector and then sharing that with the rest of us. I think his 2 years of grinding on this is really going to pay off not just for him, but for all of us. I will be using it anyway and maybe it can help you with your collection as well :-)

You can find Mynty on their website and instagram below:

https://youtu.be/kPM5-9al0sgWe take a quick look at the most recent Heritage Weekly auctions and go over some of the results. Then we get into story time :-) Josh has a great story and then Matt talks about one of their finds together. This was all spurred on by a question from one of our viewers!

We hear you Timothy J. and we've got you covered in this episode :-)

Josh and Matt go over the ways they are finding deals on not just sealed video games, but any type of collectable you might be looking for. Some of these might sound basic, but they are effective.

In the end, it is about hustle and being consistent and being fair in your deals. If you can create win/win scenarios, people will come back and want to do more deals with you. If you are patient and stay consistent, you will almost guaranteed find deals.

Sometimes you may see deals we find or maybe another youtuber and think we are lucky or that is so far from what you are finding, but remember, most deals are due to footwork and hustle people put effort into years and years ago. I can personally remember a deal that I worked on for 14 years! It was still one of our biggest scores to date. Build great relationships with people and it will come back to you at some point. You get what you give!

On Video Game Collectors Podcast #43, Eric hosts the show and we all walk through the up coming Heritage Signature video game auctions starting on 8-5-22. I would say that if you watch long enough, it gets good and there are some real deals on days 2 and 3. We had a lot of fun and hope you enjoy it! 😁

On Video Game Collectors Podcast #42 - We find an old Nintendo distributor collection at a local auction here In Oregon! Everything from binders, to awards, to proto games and more. We were able a decent amount of the collection, but buying everything there was would have gone wayyyyy over our limits we set, so we just stuck to buying things that we felt were important to us. I was a great auction and were are lucky and thankful to my good friend Fred for tipping us off on it. Thank you Fred!!!
