Vintage games sell for A LOT. Honestly, when I read this I couldn't help but be a little jealous because this YouTuber hit gold. It's every vintage game collector's dream - stacks of factory-sealed games left in an abandoned house.

According to the YouTube channel Cheap Finds Gold Mines, Aimee and Korbin discovered that during their latest gold mining expedition. In the abandoned 'hoarder house' that was scheduled for demolition, the duo explored how it was used. A full stack of PlayStation, Xbox 360, and GameCube games - still factory sealed - was found inside.

In total, they paid about $870 for the haul, which has an estimated value of more than $100,000. The entire process is captured in a four-part YouTube series on their channel. Cheap Finds Gold Mines took home $20k after splitting the finds with eight other resellers.
