Good morning everyone it is now 6 31 we're on may 13th 2025
um I was out working on my buddies first so I'll be here a little bit later so yesterday
was another day that I didn't do a video except I did one video showing how uh you have to tip AI
to do a logo which is really interesting I actually cancelled the subscription because of it.
I'm sure I'll go back and get it, but for now it's just annoying and I didn't really
understand it.
I mean, I get it.
I mean, I have, I'm on my YouTube, I have a place where you can donate, nobody ever
does, but I guess, I guess it makes sense that they want to get extra money for the logos so I guess it's just but it's
not a donate it's it's a tip so it's different it's just interesting how it
came out and if you if you watch the quick video you can see I had a lot of
use on so it's pretty cool so yesterday I did a big load to the dump which was well
We actually have a transfer station as opposed to a dump meaning it looks like a dump you go there
You drop stuff off off and all in different places
But they bring it to another place in Rhode Island where it actually I don't know what they do it at all
But it's always lots of it. So I I had a lot of stuff that needed to go into the big giant
But there's always lots of it. So I had a lot of stuff that needed to go into the big giant
Construction pile all the demolition stuff
Huge I had some old chairs and so I'll get my backyard cleaned up a little by little
I still I just keep I have one more load of stuff inside the third room down below
Uh that needs to go into the gazebo. then the gazebo is just packed for forever someday I gotta I gotta get it all out of there but for now it's just
metal and plastic it's hidden covered secure so it's just where it's staying
but just so much of it we'll show you some videos of it's pretty shocking how
much stuff I had again it's eight years of working on gaming systems so it's
got to go somewhere I just never really recycled as I went. I mean, I have,
but not lots of stuff. I was keeping most of it, but now it's just to the point where
things are just don't sell like they used to. And there's lots of stuff that will never
sell. So it's now in a giant lump pile. All right, so let's see what's going on this morning. I did, oh so my new game now, I found it the other day.
The Chant. Never, never even knew it was around. It's really cool. I just started it. It was pretty cheap.
And it's not like a shoot-out-up-killer or anything. And it all about Mind and body and a spirit and it's spooky. So it's really cool. I'm a big fan already. I just I just
Played it for a little bit last night. I don't play that long maybe and there was a free download
for a
Extra stuff after so that's pretty cool. Usually you have to pay four or five bucks for another download of some sort so I came out in 2022 it's called the
chant and it's a spiritual horror game kind of exactly that you have mind body
and soul I think it is and there's two three meters and you have to keep those
meters running and you have to get stuff
i haven't quite figured out how to hold the game out but it's pretty cool
graphics are pretty cool the people don't look too too bad
uh so the sinking city remaster also there's a remaster of the sinking city
i can't do that again no more remasters i don't even play the original ones
although i like the sinking city i'm a big fan I only played maybe a quarter of it the second
one the it was awkward with the fighting was awkward but there's lots of places
to go and you talk to people and find stuff it's more of a Sherlock Holmes
kind of game but a little bit, but it has fighting in it.
There's a remaster coming out.
I do have Sinking City somewhere, but it's all those things. They're just new games coming out.
So to try to go back and play another older game just just seems like it just never happens for me.
I'm sure most people are the same way. It's just way too many new games coming out
But I did pick up the chant and I'm still waiting for my death straining to I'm holding off not buying anything really
new
Pricy until that comes out. All right, so let's see what's going on this morning
So we've had many camps for the Patriots. So we should have a new good looking team this year I still think they should have traded away Drake May
and kept Milton the second it's my own opinion I got that Milton that Milton
to second the guys he's gonna be good it's in Dallas now so they got lucky
with him Drake May was alright I guess Alright so we're at Etsy.
I did have a couple orders, but nothing in the last few days.
I don't think it really sells on the screwsets.
But hey, I'll take it.
Screwsets always give back way after you sell everything off something.
So my Gamecube, uh, Gamecube screwsets have, I've sold hundreds to almost thousands of
those so it just keeps giving back which is pretty awesome and I got buckets of
them although some certain screws I'm running low so the sinking city wonder
how much the sinking city remaster is I really like that game. I got pretty... no, I don't think I got that 4 on it.
So let's see... let's go to Etsy. Oh, let's look at my RSS feed. Oh, I made... so while I was doing the video yesterday about about the logo
it was for a new podcast logos for my good day gaming guests and that's how
it started but I had already done a few before that that was asking me for a tip
after the logo so I'm like? So I had three downloads yesterday.
Pretty cool.
I've had 543 all time.
58 in the last 30 days.
So that's three is actually big for me.
We had Taylor, United States, Manola, Gainesville, Washington DC, and Brooklyn.
Two from Brooklyn.
Pretty cool.
Nothing else in Europe though.
I was really doing good with Europe
and stuff for a while there.
I had some Australia, I had some Asia,
but it just probably doesn't translate, so.
So I haven't seen anything.
Let's see if anything changes.
Donations activate coming soon.
It still says coming soon. Alright, so let's go on to...
So we're at podcasts. We are at 290... this will be 293 today.
So I have a new logo. I'm trying to mix up the logo a little bit.
Gets more attention.
It always goes to my YouTube and then sometimes I get picked
up or found elsewhere so let's see what we got going on YouTube so we were
growing as usual
finally monetized we're at thirty seven189 so it's significantly gone down although my little chat GPT short I got
1.2k views which is pretty awesome.
It's really on its own review and all I've done in the last three days is just podcasts
in the morning because I really need to get out to keep getting outside and I may.
I did play around my computer and I have another Dell computer Dell studio XPS a little bit newer Windows 7 I set that up my
own I didn't feel like really turn on the computer video rather and my my
revenue is going down with $21.51 so that's thanks but I do have mine other
Windows XP one I'm gonna to set up today. Eventually,
like I said, we'll do some outdoor video. Yeah, we'll do some outdoor studio stuff.
So everything's going down for hours and watches because I really haven't been putting videos
up. Not that I don't want to, I just, I have to get this massive massive thing done outside or getting there though. It's a lot better than I was
All right, so at the same time
Pinola what is that one so so many new games coming out pal I a
Pinola a charming fantasy bench gets first expansion
What is Pinola look kind of looks like almost looks like?
Zelda actually it looks like Zelda. Maybe it's just a different name for it.
Oh, so at the same time my YouTube's going slower, my eBay's been busier.
I've been doing sales. I decided to do a certain amount of sales on the week,
during the week, and then on the weekend I'll kick it
up a little bit as so let's check my feedback so for feedback here I have
10,821 but that includes all the buying feedback too so it's really not that
many but I've sold over 27,000 parts. Atari 400, Power and Video Motherboard,
RF Switch as described,
Coleco, uh, Defective Donor Motherboards as described.
That's cool. It's all here Tuesdays. Thank you.
Thanks, packed very well. Thank you.
Xbox controller, uh controller the white shell I
Still those shells once in a while to clean them up with Brillo Brillo is my friend
Click cleaned up all those kind of anything. It's Maddie finish. I can clean up pretty good
but if it's
if it's
Glossy, then I just scratches it. I can't do that
All right, so the feedbacks are right. I was still hanging around with one negative feedback
But usually that gets buried way deep
into I
Have a message cancel refund
Did not hear back so I shipped it sorry I did not have what you need not have it complete
so I asked, I couldn't, this guy had a hinge
and I had the hinge but I didn't have the cover, so this will end up being a return
I'm sure it will be. Denied back so I shipped it
I did find the I shipped it to not find the car I
did find a cover but it does not exactly right sorry I didn't have complete so
he's gonna just return it I'm sure so I'll be wasted return I should have
waited didn't hear back a lot of times I never hear back from buyers they never
if there's something that's not the way it's supposed to be I always contact them
As soon as I figure out oh, no, I don't have it that way the way it's supposed to go
And I let them know and usually they'll reply right back. So yeah, I just cancel it but a lot of times I
never hear back and
they
And I never that's it, I ship it.
I just say well I've waited a few hours here and nobody's replying back so it's gotta be
one of those kind of buyers.
But today unfortunately it's a buyer that waited probably til at night here while I was
sleeping to say cancel and refund it.
So that's a bummer. I tried to decide what to do and
I just figured it was easier to ship it. So it'll be one of those things that will come
back as a return. We'll see what he says when it comes back. So we have three orders. Let's
see. Sold some other stuff earlier yesterday so we earlier yesterday so it's been pretty good.
Lots of bills this month so...
I've been having to run a lot of sales. But they work. It works.
So no such thing as just sitting there if I can sell them for a little bit cheaper than I'm just it helps out
And move things along a little bit, but it's nothing that's below
you can make a
When you do a sale or coupon you can
Manage it so it's nothing below
$16 now
So $16 and up is for part of the sale anything below $16 is not
Because you've taken 10. I think I have 15% off right now. So if you take 15% off sometimes $13 then
I first started
last weekend
With 40% and I was doing the whole store and I was getting wrecked
I had to cancel it because it was if you take 40% off of $13, and then you're down below like 7 and that means I'm actually losing money
So I couldn't do that so we've changed it now
Anything at $16 and up
But just a lot of a lot of things I sell
So I just can't and then there's always best offer for the other ones. Maybe I'll take another dollar off but again that's pretty much
all I can do without not making any money at all. Which is really hard. Again
it's all based on the the cost of shipping. Again one ounce for me now is at
least eight dollars out the door After all the feed the box everything
So I have to make at least four five like to make at least five dollars off and offer over sale
I think of for first same day shipping
Door to door service, I think I could should earn at least five bucks per order
No, and then once in a while, I'll get a bigger order that'll help me make some you know better money
So but most of the stuff I saw the little guys
so
You have to kind of plan that way
But I really don't really have any sort of a plan. I just kind of go with the flow
I try to mix it up the best I can
To two of those more of those
motherboards. So while cleaning I found a lot of stuff too so that's also helped
me out because then I was able to relist some stuff because like oh there's one
of those I can find it I didn't know I had anymore so and that's really helped
me out. So we just got the three orders.
Let's see, we're about 15 minutes in today. That's about it for this morning.
I'll see if I get back to some videos today. We'll see what the
I want to get to work on a little project. Although we're gonna get some rain in the next couple days
so we'll be inside anyway.
So we'll do some more fun stuff. Alright, so you guys have a good
afternoon and I will talk to you tomorrow. Alright, bye.
