That absolutly blows my mind. There is no way I would pay those kind of prices, but I guess people do every day. |

Yeah i know. Every time someone comes in and buys Conkers or Chrono Trigger (which we sell both for the same price) it blows my mind. But when you think about it, standard retail mark-up is always c.50%. so if we go online and order a game into our store at 60 bucks, then we need to c. double that to also pay for making it worth our time to order it in and process it. But don`t get me wrong... I would neeeeeeever pay 130 for either of those games! Haha. EDIT:: We did have a Bubble Bath Babes come into the store one time! It wasnt me that did the payout though. Where I know what games are worth I really try my hardest to give people the best cash / store credit I possibly can. Im the nice pothead guy that works at the store haha. The one who processed the lot with BBB knew the customer had noi idea what they had, so the store literally pulled an 800% profit on it. They gave the guy $1 cash per game in the lot. But that actually really pissed me off. If I would have been handling that transaction he would have at least walked out of our store with a few hundred dollars. Something more reasonable. |

There's a video store in town that sells every non-sports game for $25, cart only. It's ridiculous! And the sports games went for a dollar each (some CIB), so I don't see why games like Pinball Dreams and Road Rash 2 have to be so goddamn high. |

If anyone sees a priced to sell copy of X-Com: UFO Defense on PSX in the longbox, would you pick it up for me? I'd appreciate it. |
