Shady business tactics.

None of the snes games in the front case are priced. When I asked about a game he opened up pricecharting and decided on a price on the spot. No retail operation should work like that. In many places pricing like this is illegal. (I can't find a definitive answer for ohio on posting prices)

The price he gave seemed high to me. Later I looked the game up i realized he marked up from pricecharting by 50%!

There were several other games I was interested in but as soon as I saw his phone come out I was done.

Some games had pricetags but I wouldn't be surprised if they refused to honor that price after a quick check on the going rate + 50%

Edit: I was quoted $30 for a game that is $21.31 on pricecharting. That's roughly a 50% increase.

As for requiring price tag "The unit pricing law requires retailers to disclose an item's unit price by either marking the item or by placing it on the shelf beneath the item. The “unit price” is the retail price expressed in terms of price per unit of weight, measure, or count"

I'm not positive that law applies in this state or to a small independent store. Even if it's legal it's...

Do not take vintage PC big box games here. They paid about $1 per each for a lot of vintage games including floppys and floppy diskettes. Total rip off which we only accepted because we are in a tight spot with family. Horrible to be treated kindly to face then get low balled to that degree. Same amount was over a thousand at pay more, which they dismissed as 'just a chain store'. Just go there, at least they tell you up front they are cutting you in half to take the profit.

Edit to reply to response: They got a great deal by taking massive advantage of ppl who are in a bad spot w family. It is easy for them to say they are the ones who overpaid bc they know we can't come back due to family. They will make profit hand over fist on things like doom II and epix games big box cib. We told them we have our hands full w out of state family. They could have just said no if it was really a bad deal in their minds. This response shows they are liars as well as cheats! Avoid...

If you are into retro gaming this is the place to go. The outside of the building itself is non-descript (you better put the address into Google Maps or you might miss it), but inside is a treasure trove of games from about every game console you grew up with (from Intellivision/Atari up through the PS4/XBOX ONE). My family and I spent a good hour in the store going through the many different game titles available and came away with some good finds for the NES and SNES systems that I managed to find in my parents house (they also sell the vintage systems if you don't have them). The store clerk was very knowledgeable and helped guide us in our search. They also have some collectibles here such as Pokemon Cards. If you are a gamer, or have one in your life, I highly recommend...
