    I'm no big fan of Gamestop, the fact they sell opened games as new is offensive to me. They do have fairly reasonable online prices, a decent return policy and some customer service. which is better that you'd get from most craigslist or ebay sellers. If anything it may force retailers to undersell them. The old argument of retailers argument of "that's what the charge on ebay" works aginst them if you answer, "then i will buy from ebay"

    If i'm reading the article correctly, I think they will be selling physical carts and inventory, but only online. The one part i find interesting about this is the mention of refurbishment.

    gamestop did buy up funcoland. from the article it seems this will be online only, which makes sense, as taking up shelf space to sell 20 year old games to we happy few dosen't make much sense to a storefront. my local game store has a glass case full of 3rd-5th gen shelf clutter titles, a few good ones mixed in, but for the most part the carts lie there unsold for months

    you have a wish list?

    Put the cart (with box and/or manual) in a plastic baggie with a few laundry dryer sheets and leave them in there for a week or two. It really helps. I will try that.

    Vga sealing is interesting to me. It's like Schrodinger's game. The only way to know the true value of the sealed object it to unseal it and destroy the value. it's cynical, but it's more than possible to seal empty boxes and sell them as collectors items. does it diminish the enjoyment a person gets out of owning what he thinks is a rare item if he never finds out?

      Its not about what you are replacing, its about the work it takes to get to the part you are replacing.

      Yeah I know car repairs suck, $310 for a bad chip to the fuel pump and $325 for repairs to air conditioning.
