Morning, everyone. It is now 532. Today is November the 9th, 2025. We're on Sunday. We love our Sundays. So I can chill out a little bit. I only had a couple orders yesterday. So we worked on some things. Of course, when I have an extra time. I work on a little project. All a bunch of controllers. Dumped a whole bunch of boxes on my work decks.
and we organized them so we're going to get some of all that stuff listed today
control from different systems some phones i found a dog phone or the ns will probably keep that
one so a couple of them we don't have any nes ones and then we also did another video too
oh we were looking at our xbox fat 360s the black ones i went through the last stash i had
of black ones we opened them all up tested them um
Most of them were the Ceyan ones or I don't know how I say it, but I found one Falcon but didn't work and we did find a Jasper 2.
One worked, one didn't.
So we got all that together.
That was my videos for yesterday.
We have some fun things coming in this week, so we'll work on that.
Two NES, although they haven't shipped yet.
But Super Nintendo will be probably here first.
Do you have two of those?
We'll do a video on them, and then I also have two Game Qube.
and a in a n64 company so with all the big four the original big four
Nintendo's will have one of each to play around with let's see what's going on
this morning
hmm
sound hill two is really fun
Looking to the news if you see anything.
As I thought, Pete Carroll got fired from the reader.
I knew that was going to happen.
That didn't work out.
It was getting different coaches and it ends up worse than what they had before.
Let's see.
Let's see what we got going on here this one.
All right.
Oh, we've got now a message.
A message here on Etsy.
Let's check it out until we got what going on this one.
The message says you're invited to be a more of the group of sellers.
You're invited to be one of the first group of sellers to try instant transfers here.
It doesn't help me out.
I don't make any money here.
I can't transfer it.
Money I don't make it.
It would be great to do internet transfers.
I do have the front cover and top circle GameCube Jew and good shape I have I have one of each each
Let me put a set together to show you a bit later a bit later today.
I think I have a... I don't know where it is though. I have one of each. I might
might
the word might
might have one of each
let me put a set together to show you a
bit later today
of course I always reply to my messages as soon as I see
him
and we sleep overnight so
although eBay does have
some sort of a
AI reply
but I always see them to just dismissing it
when I wake up
because it's
really using
It's not related basically to what the person's asking.
Okay, so let's go on to Parkmark.
Should we got going on.
I'm going to my sales first.
No orders.
Let's see if we had.
Let's check out my closet.
There is, my class.
1,267 followers.
It's my little social media site.
All right, so let's look at RSS feed.
We have two downloads today.
62 in the last 30 days.
That's pretty awesome.
1,265 all time.
My message in a bottle over the internet ocean, wherever it may go.
And we're down to Netherlands.
It's still around.
Pretty awesome.
Axel, Canada, Toronto, Germany, Hamburg.
Pretty awesome.
And Waukesha in the United States.
You get to see a little red dots, so it's pretty cool.
so it's pretty cool very fun try to keep it consistent each morning as we go here
as I wake you try to wake up and YouTube we were crying pretty good so
fan almost at $200 another another $200 run for the have to stop it's an addiction
now so like to see my numbers grow but they do nothing for my revenue which is
a real bummer $39 and 20 20 cents is all I've made
this month we've had we've gone up 14,220 292 subscribers my 87,000 27 and that sounds really awesome
I'm really pumped you know again I put now I almost put $3,000 into Google promotions
but at the end of the day I still only have $39,000 it's get self-defeating after a while
at this point now I'm like you know I can use a it is is what eBay I mean I either what YouTube does
is they if you get a subscription to YouTube premium you get ad-free so all my high-end
people that probably have subscription watch all the videos for ad-free so therefore I never
make any revenue so it's kind of this should be a way that I get some sort of clean
your desk clean it with piss what oh god you guys crazy
my workspace.
This is, this is, this is, this is my workspace.
With my workspace.
Everything happens here.
the more the mess the more the mess the more the
clutter shows progress what a progress
I don't want to remove it.
I didn't like that.
Anything weird?
I'm just going to remove it.
All right, so let's check out.
So my average duration is 5 minutes and 34 seconds.
We had 25 views yesterday.
of a non-promoted video by all my best selection of controllers it was fun
got a lot stuff done that yeah it wasn't quite an hour and then i did another video earlier
with the xbox and that was over an hour so i put about two hours in yesterday for videos
i think like i said maybe if i made 50 cents from it well here something like that
All right, so let's go on eBay. Let's see if we got any action there.
Let's click on some new subscribers.
I like to keep with that as well.
So if you subscribe to me, I'll subscribe back, as always.
Someone has 53, 0. Someone had 995.
I still convinced that someday my YouTube's going to pop for me.
and I'll get my revenue back on my promotion fact that I put in but I just can't
see to get it to pop or maybe not but we have to stop now so we'll just let it
ride for the next month or so let's see we're I'd like to get to a hundred
thousand but it would cost me another all right so we'll
we have a bunch of subscribers I subscribe to.
Cool.
Pretty awesome.
All right.
Now let's go on to.
Okay.
all right so we got some action going on here let's check it out cool
these eBay's got some action going on my lifeline all right let's look at
feedback let's see we got feedback here I bought these mostly seeking out for
parts however after some testing I found the faults to be very simple one was
dead voltage regulator. These are for Atari 2,600. I had two of them. The other required
some deep cleaning and rush removal. After voltage regulator and some switches, in the end,
both are fully working now. That's pretty awesome. Atari 2,600. See, I don't do that kind of
stuff. That kind of in-depth word work. It's just not, that's just not in me. And I could learn,
but I really don't think I ever will.
I did buy the Saturn station and stuff.
I need to pull some components,
but do all that to figure out a dead voltage regulator.
That's something I'm just never going to do.
I'll just sell them off parts,
and that's really exactly what I do.
And some people are happy with it.
Some people are not, but some people are.
That's my good feedback today.
Let's see what kind of...
Oh, yeah, any chance, let's, any chance you have the original box that the disk drive came in.
Yes.
Yes.
It is listed with the parts disk drive separate.
separate
the buyer
trashed it
on the shipping
on the
Return shipping back.
Return.
Okay, I'll show them that one later.
Alright, so let's see what else we have.
Next question is thanks.
Now, it would be just as listed.
I already have discounts and coupons.
So no other offer is being taken.
In addition, this would be super hard to find as a set or even at all.
This would be super hard to find as a set or even at all in addition.
So we'll decline that.
I don't know.
I don't know.
you're also in California
so shipping
this set
is about
$15 my cost
out the door
with all fees
a good positive feedback of you fixing the controller
the controller the power supply can motivate
my offer decisions decisions
decisions
power or the power supply can motivate me to motivate me to take a bit of a bit of the listing priced
but not much more also also I gave you a good good price on that power supply
So I and you fixed it.
So I should not have to do another lower author.
Seems unfair.
I always get myself in the trouble
But
Okay
Also
All right, so this is right real
Oh, let me fix this for a second
You're also
So this buyer's in Canada
So he wanted to have to hack it down to
20 bucks, I can do that
This is, is this set, it's about 15 mic
I'll start off all fees
a good positive feedback for the power supply maybe I take some off can motivate me to
maybe take a bit more of the listing price but not much more also I gave gave a good
price on the power supply and you fixed it so I should I so I should not have to do
another lower price or lower it seems unfair right if I gave you something the
first time and you fixed it second time I should get it at the price listed
that's how I buy just on it but oh one hundred and twenty five dollars for
camera sixty four yes we'll take that so that's different so I can go I can do
that if I have something at a really high price motherboard
common on 64 I have it at 140 and you want to offer me 125 that's fine that makes
sense but if I'm at $13 listing and you're not going to down to $5 that's not
going to happen this is nowhere for me to go I end up having to we have to pay the
buyer for that huge difference there is something new that eBay does now I just
noticed it when I purchased up the end of the day when you buy something for
parts you get you get a pop-up screen before you will buy it saying remind you
this is a parts item I wish I would have done that thousands of years ago that is
awesome so someone's you've got some new people over there eBay it's not to do
some good things I want to be able to put it so when someone makes an offer
when someone starts an offer I can have a comment before they do say don't do
it if you give me a low I'm gonna block you or if you're
you know it's cost for shipping costs and all this stuff but that doesn't have
$10 we is put we have that one left so let's not take that yeah I made it
in office this will not take that already got down to $11 the listings down to
$11.20 this point I don't want to do that I saw one thing for a bigger price
so I can decline all these.
Same deal.
$12 now.
I don't want $12.
And then, you know, they'll half hack me,
and then they'll just keep adding the dollar.
And I don't want to do that.
I'll just keep declining on it.
That one I probably take a little bit less, but not too much.
Okay, so let's see.
Do we have any other orders?
Let's check it out.
um oh and yesterday what happened was i have nintendo switch two oh we have two orders oh cool
Atari 800 exact top cover oh that's going to be a bulky ship but that's cool i'll take
that the buttons and all now it tarry 800 and i sold a PSP 100 um 100 to power jack and
and Wi-Fi board antenna i have to tear all that completely apart so we'll do that today
we'll tear down a PSP to get to the um the antenna in the in the cable
oh yeah so switch 2 uh i'm all in switch 2 and i'm definitely going to keep it so i have the box listed
where every piece of uh packing and and then i also put in the two side covers i didn't use
somebody who's half-hacking me down to $20.
And, of course, I declined it.
I think I had at $50.
I'm very around the price,
whatever we have to sell boxes for,
switch to.
And I have some discounts to it.
And then I got another message from that same buyer
with a $25 and a little thing saying,
please.
So if you're going to half-hack me, that's fine.
But don't half-hack me.
come at me with a message because you're going to get some brutal replies and he was and he was
like what i told me exactly how we feel about half hacking and uh then adding five dollars more to
think it's going to make a difference you know so we'll necessarily we'll never hear from that buyer
again good for them anyway so sometimes i have fun with the buyers a little bit just because i can and
and it's not going to go anywhere, so why, why not?
I call it school, and I say, you've been schooled.
I didn't say that to him, but I do that a lot now.
When I get somebody to half-hack me,
and then also send me a 911 message
on a half-hack of a low-losting,
like one of my little guys, but $13.
So I'll half-hack me at like $5, I'll decline it,
and then I'll get a 911 message,
hey, why aren't you taking my offers?
And then I just blast them.
And then that's it.
I've heard my cat.
I tell them exactly how I feel about the half-hacking.
Most of them usually just one-hit wonders
than I never hear from.
But yesterday was a switch-to box.
He wanted it for 25.
It's not happening.
Even though it's an empty box,
it's got every single packing piece.
And even to ship that, again,
would be $15 by the time I get out the door.
They're going to put it in a different box.
So, yeah.
So anybody out there that does really low offers
or half-hacks all the time,
don't contact the buyer about it.
I mean to sell it rather about it, if you might get an airful.
He called me a hospital.
I said, I don't know.
I didn't say anything at that really, that was just very honest.
I said, don't do it again or I'll block you permanently.
That was one of the messages.
If you do another low offer like that.
And I told him, and then he's like, how low will you go?
I said, I'm not a how low will you go kind of guy.
I'm already doing discounts and coupons.
And I'm at the price that they're all selling for.
or a little bit lower in the bank that's pretty fun so some fun and you got
a little bit fun you know as I always say selling gaming parts over the years is
really hard in my soul a bit of old man selling gaming parts and I'll probably
only get more bitter as I get older here but it's fun I thought I felt with it
the end of the day everyone gets what they want if you're good and if you
feedback's good but if you're one of those buyers that want me keep taking more
money off again I decline 99.9% of the time I don't count at all it's just a
waste of time all right everyone so it's a little fun this morning so it gives you
the highs and lows in my eBay it's really where everything really happens YouTube
it does too but eBay is what really gets going cool so I have a few orders for the
morning let's what I just sold so awesome that'll help pay the bills for the
or for a week I should say all right everyone so you have a nice Sunday and I will
talk to you tomorrow right by
