Over the last couple of days, I have been helping Aimee's dad out with a major clear-out of their house.
As we were doing that, he mentioned a stack of PS4 games he is looking to get rid of. He had mentioned these games before, because he knows I sell stuff on eBay, but we never looked at them.
I was under the impression that he was on the fence about selling them, but yesterday he said that since he has the disc-less PS5, he's never going to play them again.
It is pretty impressive; however, there are not too many heavy-hitters in the entire lot.
I went onto CEX and priced each game according to what they're selling them for, to get a rough idea, and then deducted some money to account for eBay fees.
The total was around €170, which isn't bad, but I did assume it would have been more considering the volume.
I told him the price and offered to just buy the bundle off him, for an amount that allows me to make something.
He had a think, and then said it's no big deal, and that I could just put them up and give him a portion of each sale.
It's not a bad idea, but then I have to make note of each sale, and then it becomes a bit more of a chore than it should be. So, I'm thinking of just working out a price with him and just buying the bundle.
There were a bunch of games present that I have played on the Xbox, but this is one I want to check out, and funnily enough, I was talking with someone on the Hive Gaming community about this only recently.
Usually, when I buy a bundle, I hang onto a few games to build my own collection, while selling the others to pay for the money I spent, and I think this would be one of the games I keep and play.
I remember someone telling me to play this game when Kaleb came along; they said that they'd imagine it to be a great game for a new father to play.
Since it's here in the bundle, I may just get a chance to finally fulfil that suggestion.
It's not a bad little haul, and there are a few games in the pile worth between €15 - €25, while some others are only worth €6+
I heard there was some news recently with Sony, and something to do with people losing access to digital purchases they made, so who knows, maybe there is going to be a major surge in buying physical media.
Personally, I love physical media, and I have definitely noticed more people talking about building up collections.
