    I have a pawn shop by me that checks prices before selling and it just seems like a terrible way to do business. Like I don't want to wait for you to handle every other customer just to tell me the price of a game which will probably be too high anyway. Considering what they pay for these games when they get brought in you would think it would be better for everyone to just price it when you put it out and not worry about it or at least do a weekly inventory so the prices are listed on the game.

    • @aidetund6263
      @aidetund6263 Před 2 lety +7

      Yeah I agree, and most of the time they will ask for ebay value or above, and if I wanted to pay eBay prices I'd just buy it off of eBay. I understand trying to stay in business, but sometimes these places just charge too much

    • @DTM291
      @DTM291 Před 2 lety +6

      @@aidetund6263 I hate hearing anyone cite ebay prices in person, If you are pricing based on ebay you should factor in the shipping and fees and discount that off the price since in the end we all win in that situation.

    Back in the day vintage stock used to be awesome. Circa 2007ish. After a while it fell into the same trap as gamestop and other stores did. It became super corporate. They dropped the buy in prices to nothing. Then started charging primo prices for stuff. What made all of this worse is, when the gaming market exploded. They doubled/ tripled prices on used games.

    usually they slip by pawn shops radar.
    blackout and sunspot for trap team are also 100 each. i had both in my hand for 7 dollars each at ebgames like 5 years ago.
    figured i would grab them later. boy the regret i have now.
    i also see a couple of burn cycles for super chargers. that is the last i need to complete that set. i can never find it in the wild. and that is the only time i will buy them.

    Vintage Stock is the worst chain out there. You won’t be able to buy many things there that aren’t already at over resale price. Every now and then something slips through, but the only thing you can consistently make profit on if you put the hours in is going through their magic cards.
    Also they have no return policy for things that don’t work. If you press them enough they will do a return but only for store credit. To get your money back you would have to do a chargeback on them. They are utter trash and should be avoided at all costs.
    Another thing is they constantly take in counterfeit games so you would have to be very careful in what you buy there that’s cartridge-based.

    I’m pretty sure that the disc replay by me has been found out. For a few years with their DVD area, it was all hidden gem horror movies. They do crazy deals like buy three DVDs for $3.33 and get three for free. I’ve come across some B list horror movies with limited releases were $30-$40 apiece unless they haven’t gotten my chin in a while it seems like they get cleaned out and I’m pretty regular basis now. Like anything else as long as you do your research, there is a lot of money to be made and DVDs.

      @@PatrickM-dm6sf even if the whole farm fresh stuff isn’t true, the food is still really good. Way better than Wendy’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, even five guys tbh.
