Weekly Poll 8/20/06

[shaggy]

Where do you buy your games from?

[The Metamorphosing Leon]

Wait, you buy games?

JK, I get most console games used at game stores.

[captain_nintendo]

While I get most from either ebay or local stores, I have got a lot from local thrifts and swap meets as well. Also a ton from other local collectors.


So my answer would be:

A little from everywhere

What he said plus trading online.

[Barracuda]

I generally buy from thrift sales. I sometimes buy from used stores. I rarely buy a new game.

[UNFORGIVINGPAIN]

I get my games from thrift stores, yard sales, and The Exchange.

Red White & Blue Thrift Store Rocks!

The Exchange use to be called the video game exchange back in the 90's but now they do a lot of cd's and dvd's. they have five locations in the Pittsburgh area.

[phoenix1967]

A little from everywhere.

[den68]

A little from everywhere. I leave no stone unturned.

[Pop Culture Portal]

The majority of mine are used from game stores, although like everyone else, I get'em where I can.

[captain_nintendo]

Glad to see you added my option 

[AndyC]

I voted a little bit of everywhere.

Whilst the majority probably come from E-bay, I still scour sites such as Amazon and Play for a bargain, in addition to checking out game stores like Game and Gamestation. Blockbuster also have some cheapies from time too time. I very rarely pay full whack for a game.

[shaggy]

I get most of my stuff from thrift shops and ebay.  I've been trading it a bit more lately so I picked a little of everything!  I hardly buy new now unless I find it on clearance at Traget.

[RetroYoungen]

I get my stuff from a little bit of everywhere.  Thrift shops, modern game stores, CGE, buddies... haven't done any online shopping yet, but workin' on it.

[Speedy_NES]

I get the majority of stuff from eBay, and once in a while trade stuff online.  I do occasionally go to flea markets, but I hardly ever find anything worthwhile for my NES collection there, so the stuff I find at those places is usually sold or traded online to get more NES stuff online

[James]

I go to Gamestation quite often. It's where I get most of my games. A lot of the time they have Mega Drive games for £2 buy-one-get-one-free.

I go to car boot sales when I can, and I browse eBay every now and then. I only buy stuff on eBay if it's something I really want and it's at the normal going price. I've spent a long time bidding on Sonic CDs but they've always gone for slightly more than I want to pay. I finally got one at a good price this week.
