There are NO Batman the Animated Series toys in your store, that might be hurting your biz 🙂 My God, I miss Kevin Conroy so much. He was perfect. I got a voice acting background and have to say that his voice has been such an inspiration for me since the Batman the Animated Series. The vocal training was tough, without noticeable results for months but actors like him are a great impulse to not give up; almost the face of Leon in those new RE games :) Great video as always.

[@jimstick1827]

Hey Rick. Big fan of the channel and the store! I actually run a game store that does 80% trading cards and 20% video games. And another big difference is that fact that shipping a video game is $4 minimum with usps nowadays. You can ship a trading card online that is worth less than $20 for around $1 between a top loader envelope and stamp. Hence why we buy cards worth less than $5 daily but pass on video games worth less than $10 often.

[@dialedinGandC]

Minty Tim! I love how he's constantly a salesman.

[@TioMostFrio]

In regards to the lights might want to look into your power. Might want to check your fuse box. Power conditioning might fix your issue. Locally my power company has a lot of surges that set off my fuses. Destroyed a few appliances. I could see that affecting your lighting ballasts

[@mariokart8715]

Do you know about the new electrical codes? They require service panels to have better breakers and have surge protection in them. Please upgrade your electrical service. Retro Rick needs to do this at his store too.

If you're having that many issues with the fixtures, it might be worth looking into LED conversions that bypass the ballasts.

[@Jeffjeanw]

I’d like to make a suggestion with getting the games out the door and into the customers hands faster. I noticed at record stores they will post on social media note worthy trade ins and higher ticketed items. This will have people message you and you can get specific items in the floor first rather than waste time on lesser value items

[@wingerfan1]

This is something that really annoyed me. A guy local to me was selling a bunch of DS games he bought from a local game store. He bought them in bulk because they were going out of business. They all had the cases when he bought them, but they were inside a binder because of space constraints in the game store. Instead of him, putting them right in the cases immediately, he misplaced the cases. I bought the games and I spent three days removing stickers off the back of each one of them and cleaning them up so there was no residue. I put them up for sale, not holding my breath on getting the cases and as soon as I sold them, he calls me and says he has the cases. if I was closer to you, I'd bring them over and see if there was anything you needed lol People don't realize genuinely how long it takes you to clean and remove all stickers and residue. It took me three days to go through 500 games and it was a nightmare.

[@vistas5823]

Not to mention a card store is just that; cards. A video game store like yours sells, various shaped games that require shelves for that specific console, you sell strategy guides, special editions, the consoles themselves, controllers etc. And then on top of that you sell toys, cards and movies. Probably more that I didn't even think of.

[@lordcheesus1013]

Sweet trade in the the Switch collection! I love a good RPG game. In fact, quite a few of those games I've hoped either have animes to watch already or get ones soon. I thought about seeing if there's any such thing as a non-commercial disk cleaner. Do those kind of things exist? I thought it'd be nice to be able to clean up my games and movies on my own without making unnecessary trips.

I don't really understand the payoff for Minty Tim. He goes out of his way far and wide to hunt and find collections people are selling. Then once he haggles the collection down, he buys it just to flip to the game store -- which Rick needs to buy for under half market value to make anything on them, especially if he'll be sitting on all the inventory for a long time. So what kinda margin is Minty Tim getting? Is it even worth his time? Is he retired? lol...

[@Cheeseshredder]

well it's either Tim sells to a pawn shop and get's ripped off, or lists it on ebay and pays for fees and shipping everything. Rick's store is probably the quicker deal. You're going to have to take a loss somewhere and not get the full value.

[@MintyTimsCollectibles]

@@TooBokoohi I’m minty Tim. I buy collections and also Rick and me work together and mutually Benefit off way more than what you see.

I was curious about something with your store. Understandable that certain games you can move quick, but I was wondering about the slow paced stuff.

Pokemon card shops know they have have to give a bigger percentage anyway.
