To be fair that's how buying in bulk tends to work. Especially when some of the items are inventory that might not move as easily.

Not at all...the name of the game is to get as much as possible, for as cheap as possible, in order to make as much as possible when it's time to resell. And now that Rick owns a store, he's a full time reseller on top of his main job!

It’s no nightmare when I see how valuable Sculptor’s Cut has become ;) Got mine directly from my local Blockbuster for about $25 20+ years ago, back when they were selling off their N64 rental stock to make room for newer games. Best gaming purchase I’ve ever made.

@erics8018 Год назад

Yeah I took a NES copy of Snow Bros to a video game store and sold it to em for like 1$ worst video game transaction i ever made..

@EatMyShortsAU Год назад

Our local video shop started selling their old Sega Megadrive games for 3 for $10. My friend would get like $20 from his mum, buy 3 games for 10 and some lunch, then we'll play those games and he would give me to me since I had the Sega and he had like N64. Eventually, I ended up with a shoe box full of random games of various quality including games like Fantasy Star and Shinning force, Cyborg Justice etc. Then another friend 'burrowed" my console power cabler when I was not home and broke the console or whatnot and I think I ended up giving him the games. A bit later on, I also had a Nintendo 64 and probably a half dozen games in which I gave to another friend as a farewell gift when I moved house. I sort of regret that bit as that would probably cost like AU$300-$400. In my lifetime I probably owned like 6 to 10 consoles in which I either sold or gave away but I guess I still got my 18 year old Steam account.

@donovanbradford8231 7 месяцев назад

Man I wished I knew they did stuff like that when I was a a kid because while my friends and I enjoyed Clayfighter 63 1/3, I really liked the lineup for Sculptor's Cut more and never knew that was the only place to get it from.

@Kyle Evans I get that but I wonder how he deals with people coming into his store asking for deals on what he's selling. You actually made my point. It's not a collection. It's a store that has to make a profit. Idk just seems cringe to me

Years ago, I was at an indoor flea market and a guy had a Panzer Dragoon Saga sitting on a shelf for $1000. It was disks only. I asked if he ever played it and he said that he doesn't play games. I was so mad. Here was a game that so many people would love to play, but instead of being enjoyed, it was sitting on a shelf collecting dust. There was no way someone was going to walk into the flea market with $1000. He just knew that is what it sold for on Ebay. If I wanted to pay Ebay prices, I would buy it on Ebay. So sad.....
