The holiday was great, and as I came back home I was greeted with something I bought before leaving. This was something that I was looking forward to the entire time I was away.

Last night we arrived back home at 2:45-ish in the morning, so there wasn't a hope I'd have been up for going through the stuff then.

This morning I woke up, and with a cup of coffee in hand I was ready to start checking some of this stuff out.

These stands are pretty cool, and 5 for 17 Euros wasn't a bad deal.

They'll be used for taking pictures of some of the games I've been picking up over the last few weeks.

There's this too, which is 50 A5 padded envelopes.

They were 20-ish Euros, so work out at around .40 cent per item, not including ink for filling out addresses and stuff.

In total I could be looking at .60 - .80 cent per parcel.

Sadly though, these aren't big enough for normal game box's, or the small CD case sized ones.

I'll just have to figure out what I can use these things for, and now I'll have to fork out some more cash for the A4 sized ones which should be enough.

Here's one of the games from the bundle, and an example of why I wanted the stands.

Excuse the cluttered background, this isn't what the listings will look like, just a tester.

Having good pictures of your product is key - so they say - and I think these will help a lot in finding some good shots important for game selling.

Sticking to the same formula will be the key to making it quick to take photos, and also show peoplewhat they're getting.

Here's why I wanted multiple of the same stand.

This way, I can photograph everything that comes with the game and show it all off in the same picture.

I also wanted it for this. Showing the back of the disks is important.

Especially since some games come with multiple disks, it's important to show them all off together, rather than taking individual pictures.

Some games I found came like this; in perfect order, apart from the box being damaged.

People who are going to buy a game, would rather have them in good working order.

There are so many listings out there, so you're competing with a lot of people.

Here you can see the damage a bit better.

There are also some games like this, a blank box, with a disk in it and a manual in lou of a front cover.

The box is good, so I decided to do the ole switch-a-rou

It's handy actually, because I can ship just the disk and manual in those stupid A5 parcels I got.

There we go, good as new.

This game is sick, and I'm actually looking forward to, "testing" it.

I'm going to instal, play, and screen shot each one to add into my listings to show it's all in working order.

But, there are a few games I'm looking forward to playing properly... hopefully they don't sell too fast.

Here's a shot of the inside of the box.

I can buy blank box's like this too, so if I need to do that, I will.

Here's a shot of most of the games I picked up in this purchase.

Here is a shot of the rest.

€85 to buy, and have them shipped to me, is great. A bunch of these games seem to be going for €15, €20, or even €25.

So the markup is great.

I need to buy a few more bits before I'm open for business, but, the hardest part - stocking up - is finished.

Now, all I need to do is pick up some small things and I'm good to go.

A4 envelopes, a roll of bubble wrap, fragile tape, and some white cardboard sheets for taking the photos in front of.I also need to clean all of the games box's, and when I do that I'll take some pictures of some of the main games I'm delighted to have picked up in this bundle.
