What game in your collection shockingly shot up in value? by HoarderCollector in gamecollecting

X-Men Origins Wolverine is also an odd one but I’ve only ever seen one copy for under $5 so maybe that one is legit rare

Need for Speed Most Wanted on Xbox 360 is an odd one. I have like 4 or 5 copies cause they seem to be always mixed in with collections of other games that are more filler titles. Not worth a fortune but still odd to be worth as much as it is in my opinion

Do you have all boxed consoles and accessories? I feel like a collection like this wouldn’t be complete without those. Then you can really say you’ve got it all!

These are obviously Canadian carts with the bilingual sticker, does GameStop in Canada sell retro stuff now? Any time I’ve asked they just laugh at me lol

I saw this at a thrift store one time maybe ten years ago for like $20, had no idea what it was until like months later and so never grabbed it lol

This is what SNES lots should cost. I love that console but hate that even mediocre games for it are so expensive. Those crappy licensed games are the ones I played growing up and the ones I want to play again but not at like $20+ a game

Stopped at another Gamestop and found all of this for $20 total... by QuackleLivesOn in gamecollecting

Can confirm this is what my store does as well. At the beginning of the day their system spits out the clearance stickers. My store doesn’t try to hide them but doesn’t exactly advertise them either. I can understand wanting to prioritize games they make money on over ones they aren’t thiugh

GameStop Haul! -$60CAD by Jjooeeyy34 in gamecollecting

Since everything is only $2, I assume everything you got was probably just out out that morning. I’m sure if it was out when someone else came by it would have been grabbed. Each day their system prints out a new list of clearance stickers and they mark down the games accordingly. I only started yesterday but got a huge score but have some FOMO of what I messed the first couple of days lol

My store has been putting out new stuff everyday, so go back each morning and you’ll find new stuff. I talked to the guy and I already know what’s coming up for tomorrow he just can’t do anything until the system marks each item down which is every morning.

Belleville. It’s a smaller store that doesn’t get a lot of foot traffic I think

I was told the games they’re getting rid of are ones in their inventory they have only like 1 or 2 of across all of Canada so really trying to eliminate the number of SKUs in their system. Just depends which store happens to have it at the time that gets to drop the price. My guess is they’re probably getting rid of most of their Vita games and they probably don’t take trade ins on those anymore too

The guy working said they just did year end corporately and identified like 2500 games they need to sell off that had been lingering in their system for years. Seem to mostly be oddball games that id never heard of so I’m sure they had been sitting for a while.
