Retroactive Records And Games — Local services in Suisun City

I used to come here all the time and do business with the original owners, but the new owner is terrible, unfriendly, and completely wasted my time. I live 30 minutes away and called beforehand to make sure I'm not wasting my time driving all the way out there. I asked him what he pays for trade-in value on used NES, SNES, and Xbox 360 controllers. He told me $10 trade-in value for each controller depending on how many I bring him. I brought him a big box of stuff, he pulled out all his favorite controllers that he wanted and then told me he would only pay me $5 trade-in value per controller. When I told him you told me $10 over the phone, his only response was "That's why I don't like giving quotes over the phone because I don't know the condition". The condition on these controllers was absolutely fine. Especially the SNES controllers. These controllers are over 30 years old, of course they are going to have some light scratches on the back and maybe some specs of dirt that can be scrubbed off with a toothbrush, but to offer 50% what you offered on the phone is absolutely ridiculous. He also turned down all of my Xbox 360 controllers when he just stated on the phone that he needed them and those were also in perfectly good condition. Look at this photo of the controllers he quoted me on and you tell me if this looks like offering me 50% what he offered on the phone is fair given...

This place has been around and while the selection is plenty it may be hard to find something specific. The bins are arranged in, 99 cent bins, 5 dollar bins, and collector bins. The bins are supposed to be alphabetical and they are but could be better. The bins are mostly filled with people you've never heard of and there may be 4 or 5 copies of a single record you've never heard of and maybe 1 that may be of interest in 50 records you look through. I try to stick to the 5 dollar bins, which are 5 dollars each or 5 records for 20 dollars, not bad if you can find 5 records worth your while. They do have plenty of genres though and hundreds of records. This is a record store where you do really have to dig to find what you want, maybe that's why it's only slightly alphabetized. Today, 4/21/2018, i was in there for maybe a half hour and couldn't find anything worth while in the 5 dollar bins so went to check out the more expensive ones and then i only found a couple i really liked and heard of. This is no rasputins or Barnes and noble, it's a real record store that's filled with hundreds of records and that will suck you in. While the prices can be good, the search can be exhausting, but the experience can be rewarding. I've been here off and on every few months and I'll continue for...

I've been coming to this store for as long as I've lived in Suisun, moved here in 2017.

The vast amount of retro games grows everyday, and I love seeing all the cool stuff they get in the store.

Sometimes I stop in just to see some of the new stuff people drop off! Very cool place.

I mainly have only purchased video games, and it grows everyday. The record collection is expansive, taking up most of the real estate. When you walk up to the counter however, it's impossible to miss all the cool old game consoles, super Nintendo/Nintendo 64 games right under the register!

The new owner, Steve, has worked with me finding some old games I had been looking for, and he charges a fair price. Frankly, I wouldn't trust some random off the street calling for quotes over the phone. Anybody that knows anything about this business, knows that's bad business. And that's one of my favorite parts about this place! This guy knows his stuff, and I can trust that when I'm purchasing something from the store, the owner is up-front about the quality of the product.

Whether I'm looking for a specific good, or just trying to kill time. This is my #1 spot! Nothing but knowledgeable, friendly service all the way around.

Stop by if you...
