@toshiro-kano March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
NEVER trust auxtion houses and/or grading companies. They are all scams.
@alextech5343 March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
All these sour comments about scams and scam artists only seem to prove one thing - jealousy. If you were to have one of these sealed products and someone was willing to give you the amount shown in the video, I bet you wouldn't complain one bit! 😂 it's just like those hating on millionaires until the day they win the lottery and finally being a millionaire isn't so bad! Hypocrites
@todoxx March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
yeah very good for the environment and not totally a scam
@TripleJbb March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
THIS CHANNEL IS STRAIGHT TRASH AND UNAMERICAN!
@Dexy83 March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
Pete Davidson must have seen this before he went on The Late Show 😂
@Lmadeofmusic March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
A suggestion for the chanel: a levels of complexity video about judo.
@CorporalDanLives March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
Why are you legitimizing these scam artists, this is pathetic clickbait
@Deank125 March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
Is WIRED not going to address the obvious mistake they made by giving these scam artists a platform? Honestly, a rare L by them.
@shandya March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
How do you even sure these sealed iPhone & iPod still working? Battery degrades over years
@AMVH2012 March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
I have always found it funny that rarity is less important than demand. I have a few things in my collection where there might be a handful of them on earth but weren’t super expensive.
@nindyameL March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
Why is this scammer here!? Do your research Wired!
@jamesburke2759 March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
There is an iphone on ebay someone is ASKING a ridiculous prie for. there is no sold listing for that price so you cannot claim it's worth as much as someones asking price. im going to ask $1B for my car, does not mean thats what it's worth ffs.
@kizrkyle March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am

@Skewhaze March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
Graded games and graded consoles are a scam. Stop promoting scammers.
@cinilaknedalm March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
So bored with this worthless unopened box bollocks worth something only to collectors. Beanie Baby level of scam
@lesliespeaker668 March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
Buying these items for your kids would have been the ideal retirement plans for them. Only problem would have been making them not open the packages.
@sundaymorningbeef March 29, 2025 - 2:54 am
I had a Game Gear and my mom gave it away when I was at University. I still have an old Duck Tales cartridge. I was devastated.
