The Game Pedler — Local services in South Salt Lake

Holy pixelated paradise, Batman! 🚀 I took a well-deserved 4-day break from running my game store in Denver and decided to dive into the retro gaming wonderland that is The Game Pedler in Salt Lake City, Utah — and wow, what a legendary experience!

From the moment I stepped inside, I was blown away by the epic selection of classic and modern games that could make any gamer’s heart race. But what truly made my visit unforgettable was the awesome vibe and top-notch service from Greg, the shop manager. This guy knows his stuff, is super friendly, and genuinely passionate about gaming — he gave me the lowdown on some hidden gems and made me feel like a VIP.

I walked out with sealed copies of Krusty’s Fun House for the NES and the GTA V Special Edition for PS3 — talk about a score! The store’s collection is legit, and the atmosphere is straight-up nostalgic, yet fresh and exciting.

If you’re in Salt Lake City and love gaming, do yourself a favor and swing by The Game Pedler. Trust me, you’ll leave with a smile, some sick finds, and a new favorite shop. Thanks, Greg, for making my day extra legendary! 🎮🔥

The store is great for old stuff, however the owner is garbage. He sold us a BROKEN PS2 and then when he finally realized its broken said he could try to fix it. He tried and was not successful, told us he didnt have another PS2 in stock and we could wait to see if he got another one within the next few months. Heard NOTHING from him so I called back to get our money back.. He told me he NEVER IN HIS 20 SOMETHING YEARS HAS JUST LEFT A CUSTOMER HANGING. He basically accused me of lying and said he needed to think about it because he never would do that(he freaking did do that) we were moving out of state and trying to get it taken care of.. long story short we are out hundreds of dollars because we bought a bunch of ps2 games as well as the console. So if you ever get a broken console, just tell him you want your money back right there because if you wait he will forget and keep your money. Very dissatisfied with the customer service throughout my whole process with that. Especially because I had to call for any info throughout the...

Gamepedler has been around since I was a kid, I can remember all the mall locals over the years, South Towne, Fashion Place, Cottonwood(torn down years ago, sadly) and Valley Fair.

I've, honestly, never had a bad experience here. Sure, I've had times ice not found anything, but that's what you get with a used game store. There is always stuff going in and out, and other times, I've struck gold on finding something, personal gold, like games from my childhood. Parking isn't great, but that's also why we have legs, park nearby, pay the place a visit, you may find something awesome.

Also, this place is run by one dude(to my knowledge), Greg, he is a stand up guy, so if you get a bad experience, remember he is human, he uses the same trade in systems as every other game store that deal on retro merch and pervious gen consoles, he does get in brand new stuff as well. So don't give him a bad time or 1 star rate his establishment, his has been, is, and will be the only GamePedler, and is Utah Original,...
