  1. I would bet against this working long term. Trading in sports cards and now retro stuff, they don't know these two spaces all that well. How trained are their staff to identify fakes and reproductions? You go trade in a decently used PS1, you get $18 cash or $24 trade, then they sell it for $65. The small sections dedicated to the Retro section is small. They are slowly closing locations and scaling down , which needs to happen. Can't blame them for doing this though. It will get people to come in, but it's a little too late.

  2. My local GS has incorporated a few retro items in over the last few months. Prices have been largely very good. I would never take my collection to them to sell though. My overall opinion is that I'd rather them sell retro than not. It gives me another reason to check them out, it gives them potentially more business, and it may help introduce some classic stuff to younger generations. I do think they should not shun Atari though. Atari is making a comeback of sorts and they should put a little skin in the game.

  3. They are using the same pricing algorithm for trade-in value as they used in the early 2000's back when I worked at a GameStop. Back then people didn't have PriceCharting or a Facebook Marketplace to easily sell their games so many times we had customers begrudgingly trade in games. I don't think it will fly in todays world.
