If I ever start up/open a gaming store of my own (which, btw, isn't a pipe dream for me...just something that I'm giving A LOT of thought & time studying, researching, and - in general...just learning as much as I can about all of the facets that you don't become knowledgeable about by default - just from being a gamer & a collector); so far, I've thought of a few *Fun* ideas for some potential store names:
A.
GameStopped,
B.
GameStopper, and or
C.
GameStopping ==>
==>you all get the idea...something along those lines (unless those names would be illegal or some shit, due to their being so close to "Gamestop"
Actually, a few weeks ago, a...*not* really a friend so much as...I guess, someone that I've had multiple profitable (for both of us (gaming-related)) business transactions with over the last 6 or 7 years, or so - make me a (what, to me, is a Blatantly obvious & very transparent) "
Too-Good-To-Be-True" offer/proposal for terms and a price to buy & take over his current store + all of his current inventory.
This is, most likely, where the *serious* thought of me doing something gaming-related like that might be fun to run as a hobby kind of thing, and (hopefully) get tons of old & rare games brought to me!
The fact that I wouldn't be relying on the business/profits for my well-being & to support myself, I think, is what could make it fun.
I'd love to hear all of your thoughts/suggestions about something like this...
Oh.
And...No.
I'm not gonna be buying his store because:
- I don't like its location,
- it already has a reputation as being a pretty sleazily owned & operated "Pawn Shop" of everything electronic (spy cams, computers, etc + I don't *know* anything about these types of things), and
- well...like I said - In real life; "too good to be true" is *Always*...too good to be true.
