Retro Stores

[topicboy]

I'm thinking about placing an order for some preplayed psx and saturn games.

I've looked at a couple of online stores, but I'm having a hard time choosing one:

buyritegames.com (I've mailed them several times, but no reply)

gexpress.com (Seems like a good place, but don't accept paypal)

ign.com (can't garantee that preplayed games are complete...)

Can anyone who has some experience with either one of these stores help me out?

Thanks,

Topicboy

I wouldn't buy from a place that doesn't reply to your emails.

That's a good indicator of service

Agree. Forget about buyrite, they don't ever answer my emails either.

gexpress.com? No idea, never heard of.

As for ign.com, I wouldn't - their preplayed games are probably complete but in poor condition, possibly non-working? It would depend on how strict they are about buying back games from other people in the first place; all they care about is re-selling them at a profit.

Have you considered Wolfgames? Very simple site with loads of new/used games run by a guy named Matt. Has an excellent reputation and is as straightforward as it gets (I bought from him before). Unfortunately his prices are not exactly rock-bottom

Yeah, I should probably avoid a place that doesn't answer emails...

Gexpress.com is short for game express, they have a pretty good selection,

and I've heard they're pretty good, just want a second opinion....

I'll be sure to check out wolfgames...

thanks!
