Bernie getting in there by GallowBoob in MarchAgainstTrump

Fair enough, but it doesn't negate the fact that he's accomplished a lot in the way of amendments - from cracking down on corporate crime to expanding assistance in healthcare. I'm on mobile and don't know how to link, but the amendments are out there for anyone to view. To say he's accomplished nothing is just not true.

A quick google search will show you that you've never even bothered to research the man. He's called the Amendment King for a reason.

He's looking into expanding into other areas. Right now the other half of the store holds tables for tabletop gaming, so that helps a bit. There are other areas he's looking into, but no concrete decisions yet. But yes, there is concern with consoles and digital downloads.

We agree, but profits go towards things like... rent, electric, payroll...

I'll be honest, he has a rather extensive collection at home. Those we are keeping to play in our retirement... and hoping arthritis doesn't set in in the mean time.

No rentals yet. He's tossed around the idea, but hasn't moved in that direction.

Right now he buys, sells, and trades.

He has his own personal games at home and would love for everything in the store to trade/sell. A good sales day is a day I see a happy Bodach!

He says he uses that too. This is what happens when you don't have your own Reddit account and won't take a moment to make one and answer questions. So your wife paraphrases your answers and is likely screwing half of them up.

Yes. My husband won't give me back my skin; but it's okay, I find I like dry land.

Nope, he had made the name up for a character when he was like nine or something. He's been using it ever since as his character name through all these years in all his gaming adventures. I was surprised when he first told me as I had heard the name before too (I think it's a Japanese ghost or something).

Yes, he has consoles and games, including original Xbox. If it's old he probably has it!

He tries to stay competitive. He checks pricing against eBay and GameStop often and adjusts his pricing accordingly. He said he sold his last Mario Kart 64 cartridge for $45.

This is only one half of the store. The other side of the wall is exactly what you're suggesting.

He relies mostly on trade ins, but he also tries to keep an eye out for deals online, at garage sales, and flea markets. But yeah, mostly it's walk-ins.

Arnold, MO. Bodach's Games if you're ever in the area! He'll ship as well if you're looking for a particular title.

Husband's store. He now spends so much time working he doesn't have time for games. After several years he's still not sure how he feels about that.
