THIS IS THE FIRST NINTENDO DS EVER BUILT

Why do gamers always think their games and consoles will always be worth something?
>>70950878

>>70950878
>810 bucks
Who the fuck buys this shit
>>70951019
because collector culture taught them that.
>a ripped wicker basket full of nerf footballs with dog bites
60 dollar bill right here
>>70951046
No one, all of the numbers and "payments" are bullshit for the cameras.
>>70951019
Collector mentality without the collector knowledge.
They see the game title and prices without ever acknowledging condition.
Nobody would mind paying $100 for an open box famicom, but these fuckers don't understand why.

Incredibly easy. Nintendo let their copyright on the original chip lapse so you can order them from China cheap. The rest is off the shelf parts.
>>70951530
There is no such thing as a missing link. Every organism is it's own unique species.
This meme has potential.

That's about $20 a pop
It's funny because they get the items' values wrong, I get it.

There are people on this planet right now who enjoy Storage Wars.
Thread and responses made me laugh. Ive never seen this show though

Nobody but a fucking pleb thinks an NES is worth that.

That's from the shitty TruTV rip off.
Not saying Storage Wars is good, but rather that no matter your opinion of it, this show is worse.

>It's a "Barry loses money" episode
>>70950878
I never got this bit.
I mean, it's all staged right? Why would they include some guy with an NES saying FIRST NINTENDO DS EVER BUILT only for him to be denied by the potential buyer, followed by the guy actually killing himself.
I don't get it.
>>70951562
hello ratto
>>70957087
But that's every episode.
Dave Hester is the only one who knows his shit. The rest should fucking kill themselves.
>>70951562
This never ceases to impress me.

hes not even on that show any more. Hes suing last time I checked. cant remember what for tho.

Arab princes.
Favorite moment of this show was when they found (or planted) a binder or really rare Magic the Gathering cards and took it to a convention dealer. The binder easily had things that were worth 400+ dollars per card, but the guy trying to sell it obviously did not.
After a bit of high-low betting, the seller managed to get around $800 bucks for the entire binder and walked away happy. The fun part was watching the friends of the convention dealer desperately shoo people away from either making their own offers, or revealing the actual value. From what they had shown of a couple pages of cards, in good condition, would have gone for a few grand easily.

that's easily 2000 dollars right there
The threads about shows like this and the pawn store are far better than the shows themselves
better show coming through, at least they are somewhat reasonable in the amount of money they spend instead of "Hey there's a bunch of thrash in this storage but i need to buy something lets fork over $5k for it"
>>70958956
yeah and shark tank

>>70951019
i think most people are capable of understanding that something that sold millions worldwide wont be worth collecting for a long long time.
You got a neo-geo or something like that though ...
>>70951562
that old dude has pretty young looking hands
Too bad they can't take their shit to the pawn star guys and we can see them get low balled to hell. Would be fun to watch them fight.
>a ball point pen with no ink
That's 100 dollars right there

Because he was a jew CEO, not because he buys trash
>>70952229
You would have to be the worst kind of hipster to buy a new anyways. I can't imagine going back to that shit. No saves, checkpoints or anything. And the games were buggy as shit too and often impossible to enjoy.
There are 12 year olds today that make better games with current technology

The comments say it all.
"Ahhh! found the clip. My brother worked as a DP for this show.
The cards he's "selling" actually belong to the guy the glasses "These cards are extremely collectable".. His name is Tim, and he runs CCG shop in california. They literally flew him out for this show, paid him $2k + per diem food/hotel.
I hope I don't get in trouble for saying that, but what the hell. Everyone can tell it's already faked."
>>70954635
Its worse than that.
The 810 was his value of the storage unit before the nes.
He legit (or not, tv you know) thought it was about 10k.
IS THAT /tv/ BIDDING?
>>70951019
my brother spent $300 on that awful fallout 4 limited edition because he's convinced it will be worth something in ten years

The only special editions worth anything are the weeb games that sell out in 20 seconds on nis america.
Let's say I do find the actual very first NES console that left the factory.
Why for fucks' sake would anyone care? What's the argument for it being specially collectable?
>>70957188
>I mean, it's all staged right?
For the most part.
My understanding is that the storage lockers are actually filled with someone’s useless trash but the high-value “finds” that magically occur in almost every storage locker, are items loaned to the tv show production by the very same antique experts who the buyer then goes to get the item appraised...
Pawn Stars did the same thing much of the time; hiring an actor who pretends to have some kinda neat-o valuable antique that he might want to “sell” but the item in fact already belonged to the Pawn Stars pawn shop.
