Title: My old fav game store is up for sale. Post by: atari_wizard on August 04, 2005, 05:40:39 AM http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=6971201046&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT
its weird because, this store was doing quite well at first. there was this guy working there that was so customer friendly....he ended up getting fired and then the store went down hill. there was some old man working there afterwards and he didn't know crap about games. however, i've scored some nice games/accessories from this store. a few of my buddies still shop there. i would love to take over the business, but 100 grand is a little too much. plus i am out of state now. edit: he also has a myriad box for the NES. looks in okay shape. he is selling sonic the hedgehog statue. if you look at the close up pics, looks' like sonic was abused......poor guy.

Me and tynstar (Scott) had the chance to buy a game store recently. I think they only wanted around 10,000 though..... Title: Re: My old fav game store is up for sale.

I know if my favorite shop went up for sale i would start selling body parts to get the money to buy it. Title: Re: My old fav game store is up for sale.
