You had better Black Friday sales than Gamestop, Target, or Walmart. I'd love going into your store if I lived in the area. Also that's a "Sharp" secret item there 😉

Thanks for taking in those pokemon games from me. The emerald Not for resale I got in a trade in for a switch new in box at a con and the guy really wanted it. I took a risk that the battery wasnt dry. When it worked it was great. Im really glad youre adding it your collection! I told Jason, the guy who brought it to you, that I felt you would really enjoy that Game. Thanks again and I wish I Could have been able to come out there and meet you.

I've tried to find some contact info for Retro Rick and can't seem to locate. I hate to seem like a sap or a wuss, but I'm gonna put myself out there and just be real. I work as a first responder and also had not the greatest childhood. Rick, you have been amazing in your channel. You've helped me to escape from the PTSD and all the bad memories. Your channel has helped me to recall the good times and to be happy. I absolutely love the content. I hope to fly out to you sometime to take a pic with you and enjoy meeting you. Thanks for what you do. Please keep your mission going.

A store like Walmart: [A]. Might pay sub-30% for all in-house brand product, and sub-60% for all product, [B]. Gets reimbursement from suppliers (RTV credit) for defective, shipping damaged product., [C]. Can get many vendors to come in and stock their products themselves. (In the case of a store like Home Depot or Lowes, vendors pay towards the merchandising team's budget and supply all fixtures and buy back all old product whenever they want to push new products or SKUs, and sales are often vendor-driven). And Walmart makes only like 1.8% profit margin total on their entire business. Just goes to show how hard it is for a store that sells reconditioned or pre-owned products with no chance of recouping losses.

Hi ex-GameStop employee here! I used to own a copy of Pokemon Emerald Not For Resale. We used to have a Nintendo rep come into the store. She would update and set up gaming kiosks. She installed a GBA SP and that game was in the cartridge slot. Once the GBA SP got cycled out, I got to keep the game :) #TheMoreYouKnow

I tend to pay 1/3 on common and up to 60% on choice and ultra rare stuff. The real money is store credit though. I've been in this game since 2012. I own Budget PC and Retro Games in Eldon MO. We have a 3000sqft store with a retro arcade and we also sell arcade games. Also, making any money back is better than making no money back.

Sorry, but I'll take 25% (or 30% on occasion) sales over Buy 2 Get 1 free any day. The ability to get whatever I want without trying to make sure I have additional items as close in price as possible is well worth the lower discount amount.
