    Default My New Youtube Series: Real Game Hunter (Feedback Appreciated)

    Wasn't sure whether to post this in what it's worth or here, so if this is the wrong room my apologies.

    So I've been doing this whole youtube thing for about a month now and i've decided to ask for advice on making my videos better. I went with "Real" game hunter instead of "big" game hunter as a reference to the real ghostbusters since game gavel had already taken that name.

    I'm basically just taping my game finds (flea market, garage sale, rummage sales, etc) with a spy camera and making youtube series out of it.

    The response has so far been positive (1000 subscribers in only a month!) but i'm looking for more feedback.

    Are my videos good? Is there anything that can be improoved?

    The only thing I can suggest is since you post values in your videos, you could make sure they're more accurate. You said Backyard Baseball 2001 "always sells for around $20" when it's really worth around $2-$5 which is about what you paid.

    That Thomas game isn't worth much loose either, complete ones are worth more but not loose copies.

    There were some other prices that were off, but other than that it was pretty good. I just don't want to see people getting misinformed, not everyone who watches these videos on youtube is a collector and they'll start thinking common games are worth more than they really are.

    I'm going by completed listings and memory. Backyard baseball 2001 has always sold around $20.00 for me and completed listings back that up. Thomas the tank engine sold loose recently for around $20.00 too, so I'm not that far off on their either, though that specific title seems to bounce around in price. I edited the annotation to "$10-$20" since $30 would be on a really good day complete. Anything else you think was off as far as prices?

    As you said, I don't want to misrepresent prices on common games.

    I wanna know why everyone else manages to even find video games at a flea market. Every time I bother to go to one I find clothes and taco trucks.
    I fix things. You name it, I'll work on it. Want something modded? Recapped?

    I give tips throughout the videos. IT's really a numbers game so as long as you keep at it, and you get up really early, eventually you find things.

    Having good game hunting grounds helps a ton too.
