Number 1 isn't just unlucky, it's downright disgusting and heartless
-
I hope the mom from #1 found out the value of that collection and feels absolutely stupid.... Like damn. Painful is an understatement. I face palmed the half end of that story.
-
As for stories like #1: My father's step-mother sold over 200,000 worth of his old Magic; the Gathering cards in a yard sale. The step-mom got 50$.
-
When I was 13 my family moved into a new place with three barns on the property. One of them had a few 45 gallon bags filled with old Nintendo games and controllers. Probably between 200 to 300 games. My dad threw them all in the dumpster
-
Getting that far without taking any hits in elden ring is still a massive accomplishment
-
Darkviperau is probably the unluckiest, he speedruns gta 5 but the stuff that has low chances to mess him up happens to him all the time but it's also crazy because he knows more about the game than anyone
-
Something similar to #1 happened to my mom with her mom. When my mom was younger, she had a collection of Cabbage Patch dolls. They can be worth quite a bit of money. One day her mom decided she was too old for dolls and threw them all out.
-
My daughter used to play minecraft on ps4 and had several large maps she had been working on for a long time. One day while playing, a breaker blew cutting power to the PS4 and TV. After restoring power, and trying to reload, she found that all the files were corrupted and she ended up loosing it all. I felt so bad for her, her little heart was broken.
-
Seeing Darkviperau on here was a true testament of how much pain that game puts Darkviperau through.
-
I hate hearing about things like entire vintage collections being lost because that's hurtful to the entire gaming community. A huge collection like that was guaranteed to have a few very rare items that are essentially lost forever now.
-
On last: While I was in Basic Training for military, my mom ended up throwing out a mass of stuff she thought was trash that ended up including an old original stand-alone Pong system of mine, my childhood dream journals, and a series of binders containing a full language I'd developed planning to use it in writing projects in future. That... wasn't fun to hear after finishing training and going home to pack for first base.
-
Used to play EQ back in the day, occasionally talked to this guy who played an Iksar Necromancer. He put together the race/class combination and just called his character Necrosars, then at level 20 picked the surname Corpses because he was a necromancer (and just got a bit of a laugh whenever he had to run to his own corpse when he died). When SARS came out, someone took offense to his name thinking he was making fun of people killed by SARS... a GM forced a name change without speaking to him.
-
Xbox won't allow him to keep his screen name "Gooche", but they sure as hell have no problem accepting it when he fills in his credit card information
-
The Russia story is why I never get rid of any old tech. I've always feared that happening
-
I love gameranxs videos and I hope they do more videos like this. I can see a part 3 or 4
-
Number one hurts deep. My grandmother did the same thing with me. I had such a extensive Sega Genesis collection, between multiple consoles, including an X-Eye, and a CDX, but I probably had at least 75% or more of the games available in North America. Never appraised, no idea what it was all worth, what I do know, it was worth a hell of a lot more than $40 at the flea market.
-
Number 6 shows the importance of wiping hard drives. Just because you've junked it (or preferably taken old tech to an electronics recycler), doesn't mean it's gone forever. I actually removed the hard drive from my old laptop and have plans to turn it into part of an art piece at some point (haven't yet as I don't currently have access to the equipment for what I have in mind).
-
Back in my N64 days, my mom sold my consoles and games without warning me for a very very low price. I was away for college and couldn't pick all my stuff yet, and she sold it. The N64 console, a Sega Genesis, a bunch of controllers and nearly two dozen games. Not even close to what this lady guy lost but I kinda understand his pain.
-
I once was playing a game called Monster Rancher on the ps1. At a point to summon a monster , the ps1 would let you take out the monster rancher disk and then put in any random ps1 disk, and it would generate a new monster for you and then you would put back in the MR disk. As cool of a concept that was, somehow, this process broke my ps1.
-
I suffered #1 in my own skin, not half a million dollars, but my respectable collection of Mega Drive games, my mother gave them to my cousin for some reason. Now I miss them a lot.
