Game Store Swap: Trading In for Gaming Gold!

Come Hang Out!: / saturday.morning.gamer

[@Airdog_]

Being willing to sit on a game that you have priced at $60, which is really worth $30 seems like a weird business model in this economy lol great video like always!

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

Agreed. 🙄 Whatever! What can you do 🤷🏻‍♂️ Thanks dude!! ☺️

[@isaacdavis1204]

As a small video game shop, we definitely try to be competitive so if a price went down we will mark it down for our customers it's odd to keep it at a high price but alot of shops that have been around for more than 10 years seems to havs that trend still awesome you got some games you were looking for.

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

Nailed it! Generally I assume that inventory reflects prices… if there’s a lot of inventory, I’m guessing that the prices are on the higher side. 😅

[@RetroRivals]

Spin it..... I like the store, but you absolutely hit the nail on the head with their business model and their general overpricing. We almost always trade to Parlour and Nerdful things. They both do better and have better pricing. Happy though that you found them slipping on Xbox 360. Great score!

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

It’s too bad too, because the shop is VERY cool. 🙈

[@g59s]

do you know if nerdful things have 3ds games

[@RetroRivals]

@@g59s yup! They do!

[@28_Spokes]

Great trades, move the vita stuff while you can at inflated prices (imo). I noticed a toy on the shelf at that store that I’ve been after for years. Will be PM’ing you about it 😅

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

Thanks! Yeah, I decided to part with my entire VITA collection 6months ago. Anything I really wanted to play on the VITA I replaced with copies on the 3DS (where possible). Yeah! Hit me up on IG!

[@LatashaMoore-y7r]

Watching your videos I learn something new all of the time 💯

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

🙌🏻 Stoked to hear that! ☺️ thanks for watching!

[@OrbitGametv]

to tell you the truth these game stores are over pricing and not trying to please a customer with some sort of discount. they holding on to games till the value goes up sucks. I would have gawn somewhere else

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

Totally agree - sorta knew that on the way in. Unfortunately this is the only store in my area that takes Vita games 🙈

[@OrbitGametv]

@@SaturdayMorningGamer a dam I see why you had to do that. by the way nice to meet you I'm from Jamaica. I'm the first game collector from my iland

[@thomascardoso-grant6869]

Cool vid!! So when they give you 50-60% store credit, that means they're giving you even less than that in cash, right?

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

Nailed it! I rarely, if ever, take cash.

[@owenmiller8373]

I’m guessing it was probably 25-30% of value if you took cash. One of my local stores pays like 20% in cash and their inventory (as you’d expect) if quite frankly awful. You could get more by blowing stuff out on eBay or FB Marketplace

[@baconpro1982]

Helpful employee!

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

😂🙈

[@tylermccoy8593]

I was thinking the same thing haha

[@KingYote]

I grabbed a 3DS game with trade credit too today. Shinobi cib.

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

Oooooh! That one has still eluded me - nice pickup!

[@Pjcookies]

Did you happen to see the complete copies of gameboy pokemon yellow and blue at parlour pawn?

[@SaturdayMorningGamer]

I wasn’t on the lookout for them, sorry! 😅 Didn’t notice 🙈
