it's auction day you know look at me number 53. and we're freaking
0:05
late we spent half an hour looking for parking so
0:09
i don't know hopefully not too much stuff is gone let's go
0:12
okay so as we thought they are holding the live auctioning on the other side of
0:17
the warehouse that had been drywalled over so i'm
0:21
following the very helpful signs to
0:25
oh wow we cannot get anywhere near it
0:30
are we only on lot number two did they just start
0:33
am i misunderstanding something we made it to lot two and then there was five
0:37
thousand online bidders and everything crashed hey
0:41
half an hour late and you don't miss the party
0:46
i'm not sure if there's a life lesson to be learned here
0:55
Corsair's new h115i and h150i pro aios
0:59
feature vibrant RGB pump heads magnetic levitation fans and more check them out
1:04
at the link below i don't know if you guys went through it much but there is
1:08
like a ton of really stupid [ __ ] with really
1:12
high bids on it i'm kind of looking like what are you doing
1:16
i think people are misunderstanding there was uh there was a bin it was a a
1:20
box of stock heat sinks it had a bit of like 350 on it someone thought they were
1:25
cpus i think hey i just realized something
1:29
i can bid on for you ed want to buy some useless crap
1:33
that you don't need oh
1:39
am i the only one who has a legitimately very difficult time understanding what
1:43
he's saying i think the system broke again
1:47
it would be awesome if the online portion just got shut down for the
1:51
people who showed up here like
1:54
really good thing did someone really just pay 3250
2:00
for a 3930k based system
2:04
did that just happen it's very frustrating the the systems
2:09
don't have the graphics cards listed in them because it's like
2:12
best buy style merchandising i mean we're not bidding on any of the systems
2:16
anyway but 5820k processor did that just go for
2:21
almost two thousand dollars remember this is canadian rupees on top of these
2:25
prices like these aren't tax-free prices you got to pay tax and i think it's
2:29
about a 15 fee on top for the auctioneer
2:34
i think people are gonna have a hard time turning some of these systems into a craigslist profit to be perfectly
2:39
honest i mean i thought it was bad yesterday
2:42
when i was looking through like we wanted some of those silver racks there's there's a local craigslist
2:46
seller that just has like everything and it was like 20 30 bucks less
2:50
i will give them credit even though i can't really understand what he's saying
2:54
it seems to get things moving really fast they've moved through 12 watts
2:58
already i think we're gonna have to have a bit of a
3:02
strategy here and i think that strategy if we were smart might have been to not
3:06
show up until a little bit later because everything in the first half of the day
3:11
that we had any interest in is probably not going to make any sense to buy like
3:16
let's have a look at that bin of microsoft office for mac that i saw
3:20
current bid 700 unless you just
3:25
need Windows 10 pro licenses like you can't flip them for a lot online because
3:30
selling Windows 10 licenses online is just one of those like sketchy things people
3:35
aren't willing to pay full pop they're only worth about a hundred dollars and
3:39
remember that's 900 dollars all in no i
3:43
hold on i don't know what just happened there was that an rl series benq monitor
3:47
that just went for 400 what why
3:51
here's an rl 2455 on ebay for 150 plus 20 bucks in
3:56
shipping somebody just paid 525 dollars
4:00
for it that's it no more youtube videos
4:04
auction auction business getting getting some food
4:08
can't handle this right now it's amazing how much people pay for stuff at these
4:12
things there's there's stuff i just i just found on ebay for a third of what the
4:16
guy paid a third i'm getting stressed out in
4:19
there oh stressed out man everything's
4:24
expensive madness you notice the history
4:29
the which one this one is spending two thousand dollars for the
4:33
history you gotta be [ __ ] kidding me
4:38
this this is the lot of five assorted GPU cooling units heat sinks etc look at
4:43
this these are coolers there's no there's no i o bracket on
4:47
them there's no card matthew matthew
4:51

5:04
damn it ow this is a problem cause like i actually
5:07
need some of this stuff like my play button
5:11
assortment of motherboards and fans and other probably broken garbage wow
5:16
fantastic so to their credit there's some boards
5:19
in there that like might be kind of decent there's a z170 board but this is
5:25
how it's stored you know i i wouldn't
5:28
hold my breath that it's working three evga power supplies a 750 gq
5:34
a 550 g3 and a 450 just went for five
5:38
hundred dollars 550.
5:41

5:48
you know what uh 120 120 125 okay here goes a black widow
5:54
tournament edition keyboard 175 dollars
6:01
so there's a dude right there buying all the keyboards i think
6:05
i kind of want to talk to this guy like should we talk to this guy
6:09
hi can i ask you a question um the Corsair k60 keyboard okay so i think
6:15
that one was 300 right so did you just kind of get wrapped up in the excitement
6:19
of bidding and stuff
6:23
this is here right i see okay
6:27
yeah he just doesn't really get about the price
6:31
i think people are just here for fun
6:35
people aren't necessarily here because they want to get a deal on computer crap
6:40
i mean imagine going in gambling for example you go to the casino
6:45
and you blow 500 bucks you might get nothing
6:49
if you go to an auction and you blow 500 bucks you might get a keyboard i want to
6:54
know what people are excited about right now what is this
6:58
700 anti-static work mats
7:02

someone who appreciates it
11:32
got it and that it will like mean something to them so i got my NVIDIA
11:36
shield which it turns out i should have looked a little closer at it
