True, but those prices are through the roof!  Why is everything double the going rate?  Obviously regulars on this board know what a sensible price is - as a reminder, recession means people have LESS money, not more..

Maybe he's preparing for the economic boom we're gonna have once the cycle loops.

Not all prices are bad I think. Some are quite reasonable.

Hmm...Andy mentioned he was working on this but hadn't told me it was ready -- seems like he's lacking inventory right now. The site design looks great so far.

Falsion is a game I'd like to get eventually, and I've seen it go for more than his asking price.  I'd want it CIB though.  ckenda (Famicomshop) had one at a good price a little ways back, but someone else got it before I could make up my mind on getting it at that point. 

I really don't see the issue with price on his games.  If I had a shop, I certainly wouldn't sell them for less.

Hi Andy from Retro Game City here (andy-games-japan on Ebay)

It`s great that a few people have checkout my new online store, thanks very much. I still need some more time to add more gear though as you`ve probably seen. When I get some more time there will be a lot more games and consoles on there. I do the best I can with the pricing... If you`ve seen it cheaper somewhere else, is available at the time and is in the same condition.. let me know and I`ll do my best to beat it.

Enter the code "ILOVERETRO" at the checkout to receive 5% off any order over $50. Any feedback, good or bad is always appreciated.   ;D >:(

Cheers everyone,

Andy
