[@lindah6954]

You paid $71. Some poor kid got $2 for it. lol

[@JessHull]

Exactly they rip off the people that they get the games from.

[@brettgarcia1128]

Actually some guy last week got 52.80 in credit for conkers bad fur day. So... Yeah

[@thatrupride]

Brett Garcia wow that’s a first compared to how many customers they’ve bent over and fucked

[@DouggieDaDucker]

@@brettgarcia1128 i like how people think that deserve the same if not more than what they paid for when trading a game to Gamestop. But in reality they come in with something like Madden 2k16 and want 40 dollars for it. Try trading something thats in demand and of value like most switch games like Smash Ultimate or Splatoon 2. Not C.O.D and their yearly releases or some movie tie in game.

[@brettgarcia1128]

@@DouggieDaDucker you know my pain. Are you an SGA or above as well?

[@taquanmiller9405]

They all should come complete for those prices.

[@BarnyardCasanova]

@Jonathan Soko Every shop I've ever been to. They sell at prices that will sell. If I walked into a shop looking to buy Conker's and they had the loose version for the same price as the CIB they would never sell it. Ever. Fairy tales don't exist but pricing based on included content totally does.

[@JohnDoe-wq5eu]

@North American KZbinr They also mention what's included. Clearly GameStop wants those high-end collector prices but not to have to do any due diligence. It would actually have to do some work in order to classify what comes with it. GameStop ain't got time for that.

[@Suuinabuckets]

@Jr2nd what? My local GameStop won't even buy a game if it isn't worth $5 in store credit or in a larger group of games, and if they bought it for $1.50 then it went for about $5. They typically buy games for a little under half of what it's worth, that's business. The rarer the game the more they pay for it, I sold a complete copy of Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn to GameStop for about $60-70 and they sold it for $90, and I've also sold them games that sale for about $5-10 and those sell for about $15-30 on average.

[@9aracna.]

A place by me (in Michigan) called Mind Games gives all the quality you can ask for. The prices reflect if there is any damage or anything missing. Even a cheap $5 game will be priced for $4 if the manual is missing and it tells you on the very easily removable stickers.

[@buenogoodlive]

@Jonathan Soko You're the reason alot of people don't collect anymore. Just stop, you obviously have no idea what you're talking about.

[@linktheordonianhero9098]

Wait, they don't tell you if it's boxed, or with a manual? That's pretty anti-consumer

[@henrymonroy9533]

GameStop? Anti-Consumer? XD.........why does "DUH" scream in my mind?

[@ungovernableevilmonger4660]

No, they don't tell you. I ordered a bunch of Wii games online earlier this year and it was hit or miss. I got lucky and some good games like Pandora's Tower came with case and manual, but others did not.

[@adamjames2254]

When it comes to the retro games, conventions are definitely your best bet if you want complete items. Otherwise, mom and pop second hand game shops here and there are usually a good bet. Good prices, plus there's usually deals going on for older games, you get to see what you're getting before you get it, and they are usually down for a little bartering

[@girly.imp69]

That’s why they should GameSTOP existing

[@GeneralChangFromDanang]

@@adamjames2254 The lack of bartering is my biggest issue with Gamestop. I like to haggle on the price, even if it's for just a dollar cheaper.

[@Blandco]

I love how Gamestop did a whole video about "preserving" games and immediately made a policy to throw away the vast majority of manuals. (Or more likely sell the complete copies on ebay through a 3rd party)

[@andrewhime7701]

"(Or more likely sell the complete copies on ebay through a 3rd party)" They're not that organized or evil. Imagine a company composed entirely of checked-out middle management.

[@Blandco]

@@andrewhime7701 Well a verified Gamestop manager sent emails to the Not so Common podcast about their policies and yes they had a 3rd party seller that called Green River or something like that and they sell games through, also other wholesale sellers. Video is titled "Inside Info about GameStop's Retro Game Trade-In Program " They talk about the whole sale sellers at 7:30. Why would they need to be organized to realize that they would get the best price by selling their product through ebay??? I am speculating that they don't sell their best stuff through their own website but that is a wild speculation given what I know to be true already.

[@andrewhime7701]

Oh. eBay? I normally sell mine through Amazon FBA.

[@JC-hi8fk]

Manuals aren’t games.

[@Blandco]

@@JC-hi8fk they specifically did a video about preservation of games. That means everything that came with the game including the manual. It's a specific word and a specific context. Even if you didn't care about the manual throwing away of all the original Dreamcast cases meant that vast majority of games were badly damaged because of the shelf and paper sleeve system that they implemented during that time.

Why you knockin Ebay so much? You have 100% buyer protection on Ebay. If the seller doesn't want to refund you than Ebay will, no problem especially if it's an issue where "Item Not As Described". Plus you can actually see what you're buying.

[@Fattydeposit]

Indeed. If anything eBay lacks seller protection from unethical buyers.

@@Fattydeposit Yes! I no longer sell there anymore because of the PayPal monster. As a buyer you will always be protected with eBay. 100% of the time.

[@johnathin0061892]

Not only that, if eBay fails to side with the buyer, the buyer can do a chargeback on their credit card, and the credit card companies are as bad as eBay when it comes to dishonest buyers, they ALWAYS side with a buyer AND unlike eBay they don't require the buyer to return their item to get a refund. Had a dishonest buyer steal an expensive DVD set from me that way, called his credit card company and said one of the discs skipped and he wasn't going to return it to me.

I wouldn't pay $50-$70 for a retro game like that unless it was complete in box. As far as I'm concerned, this disk only/cartridge only crap is worthless. At least on Ebay with reputable sellers (which are not hard to find) you can clearly see what you're buying beforehand. I've bought quite a few older games recently, mostly Gameboy/GBA, complete in box on Ebay, for less than these. I had been paying $40 or so average for complete in box copies of things.

=b I'm pretty sure the game itself is way more important and valuable then uselsss box ans paper. The complete sets for N64 games tend to be in the 100s of dollars and hold much more value then GB/GBA games do to their much larger sizes physically and in terms of game files.

two of the biggest things i look out for on disc media, scratches on the art side of the disc and microfractures on the inner ring of the disc.

Problem with GameStop is they're selling you non complete physical editions at top prices. None of the pieces are original &/or missing pieces. The worst part is they do this with no disclaimer so you never know what you're buying. it'd be one thing if they told you it's missing pieces but they flat out hide all that info from you.

[@brosey566]

They tell you games may come incomplete. Don't assume they will come complete.

[@BG_NC]

Brian Rosenzweig that's poor business practice

[@brosey566]

I'm not arguing with that. Gamestop has a shitload of poor business practices. But they do tell you that it may not come complete. Assume it will come incomplete when purchasing.

[@HerecomestheCalavera]

The worst part is that people are actually buying from them

[@Drewsefer89]

@@brosey566 That's a huge problem though. They say "may come incomplete". Okay so what will be missing? You don't know. You don't know what you're buying. You shouldn't have to assume what you're getting when you're buying a physical edition. Maybe it's not a big deal to some people but to majority of people that still buy physical editions we buy them for the complete package.

eBay actually has a really good return policy that doesn’t require any interaction from the seller. If the seller doesn’t respond to a return request within the allotted time, you can escalate it to eBay and they will take care of it. Honestly, it is probably easier to return something from eBay than GameStop.

[@BIOHAZARDRUSGaming]

At least you can return them for whatever reason. If you have the cash, buy 3 or 4 of the same item, and return whichever ones don’t fit your collectors criteria.

The only people who are going to buy these physical copies are collectors, and that's obviously no good. Anyone else will just emulate, I appreciate the experiment regardless buddy, good content. Loved the intro

I like how that Sega Genesis box behind always switches positions 😂

If you’re buying to collect from GameStop online you deserve what they send you.

No earthbound? Guessing it wasnt stocked since a few people have got fakes from gamestop and would have been cool to see what you got Edit: Just checked and they are all out

[@djl3485]

I'm wary of buying retro games from Gamestop.....definitely would not buy Earthbound from them with all the fakes out there.

@@brentbroadbent3957 Shame. I'll stick to retro game shops......even ebay is more trustworthy

@@djl3485 Gamestop isnt buying fakes on purpose its just that some slip in but yeah go to retro shops honestly or flea markets and bring a screw driver to open em to see if they're the real deal

[@djl3485]

@@Nico-il1tn True but if they are selling retro games and they are turning out to be fakes then that means they are doing their job and verifying the games.

I've only ordered 3 retro games from Gamestop, mostly out of curiosity. Virtua Fighter 3, Daytona USA, and Jet Grind Radio all on Dreamcast. Disc only, all of them. Which is basically what I thought would happen.

[@005AGIMA]

"order a few games and see what they send us" .....hopefully they...erm...send you the games you ordered :D
