I miss our old pawn. The owner always gave $.50 for NES/SNES/64 games and marked them at $5. He always called me when he got a few in, He knew that I sold the extra's and would even give me afew bucks off per game if I bought the entire lot that came in. He just wanted to make his money back, and make a little profit. He was more interested in making quick cash than waiting for a collector to come in and pay ebay prices. Today the new owner of that store wont even sell classic games because "They don't sell" If he didnt want to make ebay prices on them he would sell alot more.
People dont value shelf life, or the fact they still profit from it gone. Every pawn shop should be able to take X ammount of % off. They shouldnt re look it up on ebay to give a better deal. Just cut your customer a deal from your price and make everyone happy. He will come back and buy more. but cause of this im never going back again.
