Video Game Trader

Prices are ridiculous 75 bucks for a used ps2? You can still find them cheaper on Amazon and eBay for a quarter of that price. The service was unwelcoming, like a bunch of old mobsters who didn’t want to be bothered with anything. Good thing they had plenty of product.

These guys are awesome. As soon as I walked in, I saw a ton of cool skateboarding stuff and then looked to my left as soon as I entered and saw their enormous collection of video games. These guys practically have it all; Dreamcast, Super Nintendo, PSP, PS1 and PS2, Atari, N64, Gamecube, and so much more.
I originally went in to resurface some game discs, but I ended up buying Rayman 2, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 2, and had several of my Dreamcast game discs restored. I didn’t have to mail my games and wait for them to be mailed back to me, I got them back in a matter of minutes looking just like the were when I first bought them 15 YEARS AGO!
The people at the store were really nice. Jim was a really cool guy and assured me that the game discs I purchased should work and if not, he will make it right.
I saved quite a bit of money shopping at this store compared to buying online. Usually, buying classic games online is a pain due to price gougers on online marketplace retailers, whereas I can get a ton of rare games for a decent price at Video Game Trader. Think about it; when you take into account having to pay shipping and waiting for the game you just purchased to arrive, you could be at home playing it.
So if you’re looking for a cool place to get your fix of nostalgia or to get some really cool skateboarding stuff, CHECK THESE GUYS OUT.

Huge selection of games. However, games are also largely overpriced and customer service I personally received was unwelcoming and seemed very disorganized. I was told to help the shopkeeper find what I was looking for and once I did he said he only had one copy– I found about 9 or 10 scattered in the shop. Before checking the quality of the CD he told me the price: 10x the retail value. I would recommend if looking for rare or vintage games but otherwise, I would not recommend.

The shop os ran by an older set of guys who are pretty cool once you get to know them, if you are looking for a specific game or video there is a price you will pay, but every game I have looked for is no longer being manufactured so spending an extra 5 – 10 $ over Google on a game that im going to drive home and play is understandable in my point of view (referring to other reviews) Over all the Service is excellent overall, the atmosphere is heavy (there os 12 lbs of stuff in a 10lb box, but there is a second store opening soon which makes sence on inventory) there on hand selection is extremely impressive and there ability to locate hard to find games is an awesome service to take advantage of.

Stupidly priced games, service is meh, and the atmosphere is cluttered. There are plenty of other good shops out there with most of the same merchandise. The only good thing I would say is that their selection is broad, so if you MUST have a game regardless of price, this is a go to.

Prices on old video games are a joke.
