Keeping his personal collection out in the open like that must be a massive insurance risk. Not very wise.

[@F3ralghoul]

that's probably why he does it since it will be insured

[@Zlatans]

@@F3ralghoul but would it be classed as stock if stolen or destroyed by fire or flood ect ? im sure the insurance company would get out of paying out on them.

[@JosephWillingham]

@@F3ralghoul I bet the only thing that would be insured would be the glass cases that those things are in. Maybe not even those. It’s a personal collection that happens to be in the store. It’s not merchandise. It’s not a business product.

Hey! Chris here, owner of Ready. Set. Game! Thanks for stopping by and checking us out and thanks for the great review/shout out here! (Also, thanks to all the kind people in the comments!) It's pretty surreal to see my shop being known by so many people. We've been around for 7 and a half years now and not in my wildest dreams did I think we'd have so many people from all over who not only have been to the store, but loved it so much! It's an honor and it's humbling. Please come by anytime and hang out when you're around. We can maybe do some videos together, podcast, whatever. My life is gaming and I'm down for it! Thanks again for stopping by and I'm so glad you loved the store!

Local store I frequent has solid pricing. Mostly near market, never seen something over market, and sometimes they decided to downprice things. Like I remember they got in a couple 32x units and decided to charge $99 instead of the $150 you'd see online. It's 100% the owner's whim lol. And, usually, they seem to just keep the prices where they are until the item is sold. Not the biggest selection, as it's whatever is brought in, but I'd say a good mix.

[@Dezeberbro]

[@braddrcrushalot3785]

I think Phoenix missed the point on the negative reviews of store number 1, the reason it was so well stocked was due to the owner having his personal collection out and charging at or above market price for almost everything available . It’s easy to have to have lots of inventory if no one is willing to pay the price you want to sell it for.

[@wowgek7]

he missed another point as well even though thats not entirely his fault he comes in with an camera ofcourse he is not gonna act like an ass. that would be realy abd for busines. I am not saying he is an ass (1 revieuw isnt proof tio me) but people are different with an camera on them. its not that different from buying mystery boxes of games/ trading cards etc. if they know it goes to an youtuber they will in general make those mystery boxes way betetr then if an avarage person buys it.

I mean, personally, if I had a store, I wouldnt want to put my personal collection on display in it, due to the risk of theft. And say I had a collection at home and got robbed, my collection is a backup supply if shit really hits the fan. I mean, yeah I'd rather keep it, but if it meant keeping the store afloat after a big robbery, some things may get put in the store to restock it. Idk that's my mindset on it, it just feels like a huge risk. Cuz with it there, say the store is robbed, they're gonna go for the rarest and most expensive stuff first. YOUR COLLECTION. So you lose all your favorites instead of a few PS4s or PS5s, or some grail games that are just for sale. Which will suck 10x as much.

1 or 2 bad reviews is to be expected anywhere. It's when you start seeing multiple bad reviews that a trend develops. I've also seen the opposite where you have a 4.5 star store and it's just awful. Something to keep in mind is this channel is about a reseller. To be honest, you should not expect ebay pricing at a physical store. Ebay stores have their inventory in a basement or some storage unit, not a retail store. If you like your local store, shop there when you can. Support them!

honestly if you want a bad game store to review, consider Game Boss in Cerritos Mall and their sister location in Lakewood Mall in California. The yelp reviews are fun when you see "business owner Game B." response with stuff like trolls, cucks and sjw stuff.

Ok First store - as nice as it looked it is type of the store i would not visit again. If I want to admire somebody personal collection, I can watch youtube videos or i will go to a museum. I go to retro game store to buy the games, I do not feel well if the rarest items are not for sale (the feeling is like - haha i keep the best stuff and i sell just the inferior items). And the cherry on the cake. I despise if items are not priced (even more than old type of price stickers that are hard to remove. If I wanted to get pricing according to the current price chart, i can stay at home and open ebay or amazon listings. Going into brick and mortar shops is also about getting a good deal. I do not buy such excuse as repricing. Yes sadly a big inventory of more valuable games in such shop is a big red flag that something is wrong. Because normally those better items to sell fast. And the rare items to do accumulate together like that. There is always reason to that (out of reach and difficult to get location; inconvenient store hours; bad experience with the goods quality from the past and importantly high pricing). Second store- Repro cartridges are questionable. By labeling them as repro, they are at least not misleading customer. The only other legal issue might be selling counterfeit goods (as those copies surely did not get copyright approvals to be made (also it is easy to use "used goods" loophole. Otherwise, more limited offer actually can mean that things are moving from the shelves. So regulars do visit them frequently as new things can appear at any time and because of decent pricing they will not last long. Last store - The area looks more rural, so I assume, that it is cheaper to rent. Store is nice, however selection looks optically bigger (because how games and other goods are spaced on the shelves). In reality first store did have technically the biggest selection and with more rare games (for what was on sale). But of course the first store has bad pricing practice, so no wonder they have full shelves.

The reviews that didn't get high remarks at ready set game were probably people going in during the pokemon tournaments held there. It can get chaotic but that's my Pokemon place to go in Brevard county. It's next to Walmart in Indian Harbour Beach.

1:17 I'm not a GameCube fan but I've always wanted that mobile suit Gundam Char's zaku II colored GameCube. I heard it ran 3 times faster then the normal GameCube (if you get the joke your a true Gundam fan)

Not having price stickers is illegal where I'm from. Every product on display has to have a price sticker attached, otherwise the store can be fined heavily.

That Pokémon card is not worth $18!!! And it has a huge crease which depreciates the value even more!! You got ripped off.

The Game Galaxy game store owner is a liar because I’ve been going to that store since 2016 and he has never had prices on anyone of the games so this whole “he’s stickering all the prices since the COVID boom” is complete bs to say the least! Only decent thing about the store is the selection otherwise you’ll be there forever trying to buy a regular game that he has now overpriced!

Keeping your personal collection in-store seems pretty risky. Just one robbery away from total loss. You know how you're not supposed to risk your life in a robbery? Well, you just made it that much harder for yourself to not do something stupid. Your employees are also not gonna bother saving it.
