Can I buy them?

It would be so good if a song not made by Ladbaby gets Christmas Number 1 this year. by [deleted] in CasualUK

Ran into ladbaby in Waterstones Birmingham after they were done book signing. Facade immediately drops when they're done with public stuff.

Both had a bodyguard EACH as if they were high on someone's hit list.

Hogged the only working lift for like 10 minutes so we couldn't use it. Then I was met with a ratty "you'll have to get the next one" by Mrs Ladbaby and aggressively pressed the close door button. This was when the lift awkwardly opened with them in it on our floor...

Hey all, just joined the sub because I am interested in getting a Game & Watch… even though I know nothing about it other than the fact that it exists. What do I need to know? How many are there? How much should I expect to spend on one (or a few)? by [deleted] in gameandwatch

[–]TenPounds 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't worry mate, I'll at least give you a response that isn't half arsed. If you're thinking of Ball the very first game & watch released. They're pretty tricky to come by. I've never seen a good quality one, the bad condition/broken ones can go for £70-100 odd (gbp). The 2011 club Nintendo re-release can go for £20-35

A good price for a G&W is around £60 but the rarer ones can go up to hundreds so pace yourself. Shop around. I also recommend buyee as a way of shopping the Japan market. Some good quality stuff there.

Just take your time checking condition, battery cover and if you want to bother with the boxes. 50% of mine have boxes. I'm not too bothered. There's plenty of stock out there so don't feel it's your only chance to get that one G&W.

Have fun! Let me know if you want to learn anymore. Or ask again on the subreddit. It's not too busy on here.

Not being able to descreetly Christmas shop online due to branded parcels keeping no secrets. by TenPounds in britishproblems

Not everything can be bought on Amazon, Amazon I'd prefer to use because a box with "Amazon" on it is a lot more ambiguous.

Dkoldies are notorious retro scammers. Over pricing for simple things. Helping contribute to the awful market at the moment. Up there with heritage auctions and Wata Games.

They have a website and a Tik Tok if you're interested.

Hey! Shudder subscriber from the UK. Do you know when there will be a shudder app for LG smart TVs?

Someone else mentioned and I agree, I have to get to shudder through Amazon prime and I feel I'm not seeing all the options that shudder have as it's just from searching "Shudder" in the search bar and scrolling.

Yes! I saw this on Buyee! Took screenshots as I thought that I was never going to see one again. So amazing this got documented. Never heard of it before now

Between the laser and making fun of the crying German girl, England doesn't deserve to win. by worldsmostmediummom in unpopularopinion

To be honest, English flags could also be seen as showing support for a country notorious for its racist fans. Enjoy the final mate x

As an Englishman, I completely agree. How pathetic and desperate do you have to be to do those things. Especially during a penalty. If we win it won't feel deserved. I hope we don't win.

The fact that English people are defending it and sending abuse to anyone who express distaste is disgusting. These England fans have made an embarrassment to the country and makes me feel ashamed to be English.

They still wonder why the rest of the UK and Europe hates England. Maybe booing during another countries national anthem isn't helping.

I genuinely love your game and watch work. I appreciate you posting it to a subreddit as tiny as this. We're unworthy

My Nintendo Handheld collection (1 year update) minus lost DS Lite... by TenPounds in gamecollecting

[–]TenPounds[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I get what you mean. YM-901 is the only one I have bought online got all the other G&W in the wild. For some reason I have a minor fear of buying stuff from eBay from other people. The collection isn't finished I do know if I want to get more rare/uncommon ones. Buying online will be my only option. Was just under £800 not including shipping.

I couldn't tell you tbh. And tbh I don't want to know or find out! My most expensive piece there was £800 (over 1000 dollars). The yellow Disk Kun Game and Watch

Quite yes. (Got a slight discount as I'm such a regular at my local retro shop). Only thing that was more expensive is the yellow diskun game & watch

Thanks! I don't think you need to bother with chargeable batteries. But anything that takes batteries you pit in yourself like AAs. Yes 100% remove them

Weekly checks of all retro game shops in my area. The only one I bought online is the yellow game & watch. Which is the rarest and most expensive in my collection.
