Fun Work Done Yesterday.A Cool Late Summer Day to Clean Tandy 1000EX and HX Top and Bottom Shell 🐚 👌with BrilloEvery Type of Original NES Controllers Parts LOT https://www.ebay.com/itm/267351604121

Good morning everyone. It is now 547. Today is Sunday. It is August 3rd, 2025. So we have another cool day. Yesterday was really cool all day. I didn't do anything outside yesterday. Oh no, I did. I worked on my Tandy 1000 HX and EX cases. Did a video, we cleaned them up with the Brillo. They count pretty good. I got all three of them listed. I have another top cover that has a dent in it, but I'm gonna replace it with another one,

make that mine and then I'll sell the other top cover. So we pulled those out yesterday. So that took me, that me a good half hour or so project to I do it. I did it outside because it was a it was nice out and b it's a lot easier to hose things down and use Brillo and all that instead of trying to bang around because it's pretty big and bulky. So trying to do it in a sink in the house it makes a big giant mess so it's easier to get outside done. We did that and then we did a few other projects. I continue on my mass listing for eBay for all kinds of different games and lots of Sega Genesis stuff. I'm just doing big bulk lots

and then I just go from there. I got 30% off. Sales going on today, it ends today I think so got all day today and then I'll do another sale starting next week. I do a sale per week so it'll always be some sort of a sale plus I also have best offers so but I'm not gonna take super low offers for them but I'll take a little bit more off of the percentage that I have a sale going on and then let's see what else we do yesterday. I think that was pretty much it. I spent most of the day just listing stuff. It takes a long time to do it. Even the way I do it now which is really fast, as fast as I

can go to get as much stuff up. And then I can always go back later and update things or test things or stuff. But for now I just wanted to, I found some other things. I found some other things to list. I got, I wanna get my store up to 2,000 items. I have unlimited amount of, amount I can put up. There's no way I can really do unlimited amount of stuff, but we can still keep pushing out a bunch of stuff. So we'll really build up my store while my YouTube is still in its infancy.

Still trying to build that up. We'll see where we're at today on that. Let's check them. Let's check the news this morning So August 19th is going a big day for so the new Resident Evil games coming out in February already our acti. I'm pretty cool. We'll get it If I won't get anything till then there's not really games That I've seen and I haven't been playing my Death Stranding 2 at all. Just haven't been into it. I really not... You can always play it at 10 years from now if I want to. Doesn't matter.

So we'll see... Yeah, eventually we'll play some games. Days Gone 2 is happening. Oh cool. Good they're gonna have a Days Gone 2. I got to remaster but I've yet again had to play it all. Replay it. I never did finish the game so I got to remaster it so I could play it.

Finish it. But I haven't even started it yet That's a long game, too so Let's see, let's check out Etsy. I'm still working on this issue with the Delivery problem so figure that out. I did sell something power and reset button with cable so that's for the Nintendo NES here on Etsy so we saw one thing on Etsy

today so it's pretty cool there are lots of those power reset buttons a bunch of just recently had an old8 motherboard for NES. We tested that with the video. It has a solid light so it works sometimes, sometimes it doesn't. I got the video of the game a few times but most of the time I didn't. So I listed that for parts. And a N64 came in the mail at the end of the day yesterday so we're gonna look at that today. I also have my two Wii minis. I probably can do those first. I'm gonna go through test those out

check them out and I already have a Wii mini that fully works too so that's pretty cool. All right so let's go to see what else that's cool day's going is happening so that's pretty cool. Alright, so let's go to... Let's see what else... That's cool, Days Gone is happening. That's awesome. That'd be pretty cool. It's one of my favorite games for a zombie-ish kind of game. It's Days Gone. It's got lots of cool stories to it.

It's pretty intense. I never did, like I said, play the remaster yet. But I was very happy with the original Oh, you know what I watched it last night which I haven't finished yet, which is so it's really weird is, um, until dawn, the game, the game until dawn has a movie and it is absolutely nothing like the game. It's really weird, but I kind of like how they did it. So but it's just really weird. It's one of them repeat things and they had to try to figure out something within a repeat.

So it's so not like the game. I knew it wasn't like the game but it was on Max. Is it Max it was on? No it was on Netflix. So days gone so if you like the game which I did and of course I got the remaster which I've never replayed. Something like that. I mean there's not an inch of that movie that is like the game.

It's so weird. And many times through one of their repeats, they just kind of lose their characters a little bit. So it's almost a B kind of movie in many ways. But it was entertaining. almost a B kind of movie in many ways. But it was entertaining. I stopped watching it. I got, I just ran out of time. I was tired. The day's gone.

And then I watched Blood, Bloodlines. That was pretty cool. I liked Bloodlines. Final Destination Bloodlines. Nothing like the other ones. A little different Pretty cool. Oh, but again same thing. It's wasn't great, but it was alright that was on max All right, so let's go to so nothing parsh mark. Oh, yeah

They try to watch a movie or something before I go to bed at night Just to wind down a little bit We have 1,117 followers here in Parchmock. And as we've always said, this is just some sort of social media site with listings. It's like I have a Facebook with listings on it, pretty much. I have all kinds of followers. I have no idea why or who they are. I just do. They don't buy nothing.

Okay, so let me see. YouTube's growing. We get over the 57,000 subscribers. Very exciting. Very exciting. Of course, I always say I bought my way to the top here. I had over not quite $300 for last month, but we had a lot.

And so 57,546 subscribers. Oh, I had a cool Mickey Mouse umbrella that I listed. And those will always give me things like that that are un-gaming related. I usually get a lot of views on it. I have 32 views for that. And of course I take each video and I split it up three ways. Flash 15 seconds, just a minute video, if it's a long video then it goes a quick 3

minutes also. So like a breadcrumbs you can see a little of the flash 15 seconds you can go find the quick three minutes or you can watch the whole video after that. So Life in a Double Shave 1.6 that's hanging in there still promoting that one. Same with my YouTube channel. I found out my YouTube channel I'm at 10k never had it. That's by far my number one video. If I look at my views, I've gone up significantly. 237.6k. I see a little bit of a ratcheting up.

Just pretty awesome. My watched hours has gone up to 1.1k. Hours watched. And my revenues ticked up just a buck or two. $33.01. Pretty exciting. So we're always on the way up but I just keep pumping out videos daily. Kool-Aid day to clean my Tandy 1000. It's 610 views. I promoted that yesterday. It was a little bit different. You can watch me put some time and effort into cleaning some top and bottom covers.

And of course, all of these things like that, I attach my eBay listings to them. So usually now I try to, if I'm doing a video about something that I'm working on to list on eBay, then I automatically get that listed. And then I can put it as a link from YouTube to eBay, just to see if I can get people to jump back to my store. Because everything's just a mirror back and forth,

basically. Yeah, so 57,548 subscribers. I have almost 9,783 subscribers in the last 28 days. Pretty awesome. And I just noticed that my number one, let's see. I'm really plugging away at trying to get this going somewhere. So let's see. Views, 21,000 views. Flash 15 seconds. It was my Super Mario Hot Wheels car. See, it's so weird.

I did a little quick video about Super Mario Hot Wheels car and it got me 21,000 views. That's which is, it's a flash 15 second. So that's why any little thing, I make them flash 15 seconds just to get some lots of views But my number one long video view is 10,669 for my YouTube channel my one-on-one. That was a good one-on-one update. I Done a lot at that point and not a lot to share so For us all these little guys here for small channels Just ways that I've been trying to do things a little bit different, but then they work. They've been working

My life in a double shave almost 5,000 on that one Using the Gameboy advanced. I've got 8,000 views on that one. That's pretty awesome We're doing a little bit a little bit 339 views. Oh, I did a live stream my little buddies yesterday like any pigs for once in a while Did my birds the day before I think outside live for about an hour. Then yesterday did my guinea pigs live before I think outside live for about an hour then yesterday I did my guinea pigs live little little nature and animal live who doesn't like some nature some birds and guinea pigs pretty awesome well let's see if we can subscribe to some new people subscribe to never really get any really big subscribers.

At least I don't see them. I'd like to see them all. All 57,000. I only see maybe 500. Tell me they're hidden. It's pretty wild. I only could resubscribe to like, I like I think I clicked on like 10 new people out of the probably 500 or so that I've just got from last night. So it's exciting to see it keep going up. I'm gonna try not to promote as much this month

because A. I can't afford it. On my eBay store although I've been really ratcheting up the amount of stuff, has gotten real slow. So we're trying to mix it up. But then I did get rid of free shipping and free returns and made a dent in a negative way. But I do like having an extra $4 as my shipping cost and returns. All right, so speaking of eBay, we'll cycle right to that now. See what's going on here. Some offers, $15.

I won't do that. Too low. We did sell a couple things yesterday. So I sell a few things a day. Oh, I do have three sales, so that's pretty cool. So that helps. No new feedbacks. I've had one, two good feedbacks since my two negative feedbacks. And then I throw another 5% off. So you can get a total of 35% off my listings.

I think it's more than enough right. Now we say if I can't put 35% up as a sale on that not being good enough and then that buyer still best offer me like half off of that. It's just crazy. I just decline it. Don't matter. Something I still will take I just decline it. Don't matter. Something I still will take a look at all. I sold a couple. I sold a motherboard, the 03 worn motherboard. I sold one of those top covers, my sliders.

I knew I'd sell those. So yesterday, while I was doing the, what was I doing yesterday? Oh, I was doing my Tandy 1000 EX and the HX. There's a slider cover on the back, covers the EX cover. I'm going to show you those today. I've got some cool expansions for those. But there's a top cover and I sold one. I have two more.

I got to keep one for me though. So we sold one I have two more I gotta keep one for me though so so we sold one and then we sold a N64 the 03 motherboard I had which works fine and I got and then I also sold a metal Xbox 360 heatsink set Both the aluminum ones aluminum one once so a couple orders So we'll get those listed today, let's see what else is going on Today's Sunday is see so of course every day now After I upload my podcast here, I'll give you a video of a couple things I did yesterday. Take a look at them over, pretty fun.

Oh, I worked on all the, I did a quick video on all the controllers. I had a bunch of the controllers for, and the original NES controllers, the dog bone, there's a dog bone one, the original controller, and then there's the other one, looks like a, almost looks good. And it's got the third one,

I don't know how to explain the other one. So I made a quick lot of all the ones I had and a video about it. I can't do a video for every single thing I list. Actually I hardly do videos. I have to get things up faster. But once in a while something like that it's listed. I did a video just to show show them. So you know it's 60 seconds and then I make it into a minute video and then it goes to YouTube as well. With a link back to eBay

See what I'm saying you guys get it Everything just a mirror back and forth right from here to there So today, like I said, I've got another N64 and we're gonna definitely get on that. We're gonna get that stripped down We'll test it. I'll test it till I get it out of the out of the case and Then we're gonna do those Wee Minis, which I did two. We'll look at those Tandy 1000 EX, HX, that are mine, that are intact. And they have the extra fun expansion in the back.

One is a triple, is the triple stack original, fun thing in the back. One is a triple is the triple stack original fun thing in the back. Then I have a modernized one as well. So we'll look at those pretty fun. Some really into my Tandy's. I haven't really done much with Tandy's. Tandy, all my Tandy's and TRC 80's are my thing. I grew up on a TRS-80 model 1. I do have a model 1. I have a model 2. And then I have some other. I have the original model 2. The one before the model 1. And I have a screen for it. And then I've got just about every other Tandy and TRS- City that was out then. And finally I also have, oh so then laptops really into the Toshiba, early Toshiba Windows 95, Windows 98 laptops. That's my that's my second thing I'm into. I've got a few of those, most of the menu of work, some I never could get to work.

But that was about it. I was in, I wanted to find out all about that kind of stuff, so I went out and, of course, purchased a lot of things here and there. But we're pretty much done now with all that. I'm back to my next cycle now, is I'm getting systems in a little bit. Just, I wish I had money to go buy.

I could buy a nice big lot from a local guy or a local place, but I have to have a lot of money up front. I just don't. Maybe next year, of course, when you put yourself through at-home game of school, as I've always said and talked about, you have to take out home game of school, as I've always said and talked about, you have to take out some sort of student loan somewhere. So I bought lots of things over the last few years and I racked up all my credit. And then I went now I'm finning on a national debt consolidation. Highly recommend it. It's what I've been using and you're still paying a lot of it off But a lot of the debt I got knocked off and you're not paying any interest

So on my last year of four years debt consolidation For my at-home gaming school loans as I call them But basically just credit cards got racked up so I get all kinds of stuff to learn about So once I get that one more year paid off, it's X amount per month now, it's a lot, but I was way in debt. But I'm seeing the light now, which is real exciting. So make sure if you get yourself a million debt, go to National Debt Consolidation, which worked for me, and it gets you on track.

You're not paying any of that silly interest that you've been paying forever. So my point was once I get that done another year I'll be able to have some more money maybe. God forbid if anything does happen to my mother then that would change things too. But some uh two local places where I can get stuff. But for now we're just going to stick with getting a few systems in here and there and they're really hard the systems I know that are popular for the parts N64's

Specifically GameCube. I'll get some of those eventually. Dreamcasts NES, Super Nintendo, all those motherboards and there's lots of other parts that will sell So that's where we're at today and we did a couple of videos yesterday I'll put a couple links show you the hard work I did for outside cleaning the my Tandy's but that'll pay off definitely well I know and already did I already sold a piece off of it and that wasn't one of things I was cleaning But I had I wanted to list it and it already sold one Alright, so everyone you have a good Sunday. I like Sundays because I can kind of take a break

I got a mobile on today. So we will go out the back. Yeah being guys on the back. Yeah later Go the mold one Alright, so I have a great Sunday and I will talk to you tomorrow. Alright
