ers who run the stores can find out the price of any game with the touch of a button. I would have not bought any of them just out of spite, value and rarity be damned.The only person that loses there is you, though. Someone else will pay it and Goodwill still gets the sale, so your spite unfortunately does nothing to them. It sucks that we live in a time where any dope with a smart phone can place a value on something (often an inflated one). My Goodwill is awful, whomever their pricer is now puts all video games starting at $6.97 and then goes higher as they see fit. Some stuff sits there for months and a good bit of it moves. Stupid people paying $6.97 for Madden 10 and the like. No wonder they price like that, people pay it. I regularly see Goodwill stuff priced higher than the Target clearance prices...and I just think, "You got this stuff for free." I mean, I get that they create jobs for disadvantaged people but do they really need to price that way? Wouldn't they get more customers if they actually had bargains? Most thrift shops I see are just retail stores for the most part.Goodwill's such a piece of shit now. Those games could have all easily been $20 and they would still have made money. But now those mother
one of the main problems is, as you mention, you have some regular soccer moms and resellers who don't know what they are doing that buy the over priced games like madden 2007 for 5.99, and unfortunately all this does is encourage the thrift shops to keep pricing that stuff high.
lol. $200 for a wii? This sounds like what my GW does. The only thing good I found so far was a Game of Thrones Season 1 Blu Ray for $5.Didn't buy anything that I want the last couple days thrfiting, but here is some things that I saw:
Dance Dance Revolution Bundle PS3 w/ Mat & Game Inside ($15)
Life is Strange Xbox One $15
Wii U & Wii Games $10-$40 each (Wanted Mario Kart 8 Wii U, but it was marked @ $40)
Complete Wii System w/ Accessories & Box (Why is it price at $200?)
GTA 5 360 $6
Fat PS3 w/ 2 Controllers $75
PS3 Super Slim w/ No Controllers $50
Not sure. Maybe because Megaman or overpriced like most games. I recall getting some cheap games like 2 years ago $.99-$.2.99 and now they asking for $10.
Yep. They're trying to screw people over. Wii's aren't worth anywhere near that now.
Got mines for $15 and had Zelda TP inside. Traded zelda in and broke even. This was before the game boom.
Yea, I got mine at Half Price Books for $44.95 which was mint and came with Wii Sports which I already had a copy of so I sold that one for $17 on Ebay so for basically a Brand New Wii I ended up paying about $27.
(
I usually pay $5 for each of my controllers unless they are current gen but the store i get them from will let me return them if they don't
The red is pretty sexy$32, not amazing but everything was very clean and Wii Sports was inside. No Virtual Console games save to it though. Ive been wanting a red one.
Does the racing wheel work on all pc racing games?Bought:
Metal Gear Solid Tshirt - $3
Kingdom Hearts 2 - $3
Xbox 360 PC Wired Controller - $5 (Works on a Windows 7, but having issues getting it to work on a Windows 10)
Like New Sony Playstation 2 Logitech Driving Force Pro - $15 (Just tested it and works great for PC Dirt 3/Grid. Just had to download/install the Windows 10 driver. I'm going to test it for PC Forza Horizon 3 later tonight.)
Saw:
Mario Kart 64 = $50
Super Smash Bros = $50
Super Mario 64 = $50
I think that was target or kmart brand back then? Just got a Good to Go cherry desk for $20 at Kmart with 20% off coupon. Both priced at $24.99 (Sauder sold out and they both look the same. Both made in the USA. The Good to Go brand is made by Ameriwood, Inc.)Wasn't looking for anything of the sort today, but I ended up lugging this out of the local Goodwill.
Box was beat to shit and water-damaged, and tagged as 'Final' and 'May be missing pieces', but I figured at $5 it was worth the risk. The good news is that green-tagged furniture was apparently 25% off, so I walked out at under $4, even with tax. The bad news is that all the parts are included and in good condition - except for the bag of screws, which is completely missing. Of the three types I need (plus some nuts), the instruction sheet only lists dimensions for one, and according to both Google and Walmart this desk never existed in the first place. Looking forward to a fun trip to the hardware store this weekend...
Here is a list of video games compatible with Logitech's: GT Force, Driving Force, Driving Force Pro, Driving Force GT, G29, G25, G27.
You still have it? This wheel still goes for $70-$100 shipped on eBay/Amazon. I almost bought this g27 wheel + stand on craigslist for $150. https://losangeles.craigslist.org/sfv/vgm/5800538634.html
Are those the prices on the sticker? Like $115 for LA Noire and then 100 for Fear Effect and Jet Set Radio? How does that make any sense.
bookoff is so odd they can have an item with a list price over $200 and sell it for $1. it is fun going into the store, half the time am in there i am just shaking my head laughing. they do have deals at times but you need to have a good idea of what the prices should be and be there at the right time.Book Off is better off not listing the Original Price when charging a stupid amount for the game in question.
Ex. List Pice: 1.99
Our Price: 199.99
You'll be pretty much going
it doesn't make sense. they try to be a retail store but they have no clue about video games or any of the other stuff they sell. their own employees are shocked at the prices at times but it is the employees who are pricing them. they use to have a set price of $5 for everything ps2 and older and i would go wipe them out any time they got new inventory.
That is awesome. I was at the point of just giving up going to Goodwill a few months back and then one day I was driving by one and said screw it, may as well go in and sitting on top of their DVD shelves are 7 complete Dreamcast games (Good stuff like Seaman and Crazy Taxi, no sports titles) and 2 Final Fantasy PS1 titles for $1.99 each. A few months before that I was ready to stop going in there and then I decide what the hell and find 7 CD-i titles all complete and mint. 6 commons and Hotel Mario for .99 each. It's like they know when I am fed up with their crappy PS2 sports titles for $2.99 each and overpriced crap in the cage, and decide to throw me a bone so I keep coming in.
