CQ 245 - Games Are Affordable When You Don't Buy Nonsense
If you've ever said "Games are getting too expensive" are you talking about games you care about that matter, random hyped expensive trash, or the cost of trying to own literally every video game? The best games to collect are more affordable than virtually any other hobby, especially if your goal isn't to buy EVERYTHING. You'll never own a Babe Ruth rookie card, Action Comics 1, or 1794 Flowing Hair Silver Dollar, but even the most expensive million dollar games ever sold you can own the exact same thing for a couple hundred bucks CIB.

One for the hardcore
At first I found Jonny to be a bit too self-righteous, and didn’t like how the others pandered to him, but there is no better podcast which goes this DEEP into video game collecting. They could sometimes be a little less rambly and stay on topic more, but overall a great, great podcast for hardcore gamers. 👍🏼
