Not labeling and dynamically changing the price of games sucks the fun out of buying. And just makes me want to buy online. Grumpy grump grump.

    In my experience, shops that don’t price items are shops that overprice items. Generally if I don’t see price tags, I don’t bother looking any further.

    I’m surprised to hear that’s a thing, they’re all priced at the shops near me

    That said, when doing so use stickers that can be removed easily.

    Nothing worse than paper price stickers that rip apart or leave a sticky residue.

    Bonus if they’re on a card box like pre-GameCube Nintendo, or 90s big box computer games, where they actually damage the underlying game box >.<

    The moment I stopped retro game collecting is the moment I took a game to the counter and the guy pulled up ebay on his phone to check the current prices. My guy I could have just bought it on ebay if that was my goal.

      That really ruins the fun of hunting down a good deal. I sure miss the days when someone at a flea market had a box of NES games for $3 each, and you could sift through and find stuff you don’t have yet. Those days are long, long gone.
