Craigslist chicago rants and raves Videos

Shopping at People Play Games is never a very pleasant experience. Last time I went I bought 5 or 6 really nice complete in box NES games and the guy behind the counter finally warmed up after I talked to him for 10 minutes....but usually their customer service sucks. I collect comics as well, so I guess I am just immune to the whole having to ask to look at stuff thing. I ask to see what I want to see and if the staff doesn't like it I really don't give a shit. It's their job, and if they don't want to have to unlock cases or reach high shelves all day they should organize the store differently. 

I completely fill your pain on this store. I am avid game collector/player and always look up stores when I am traveling to a new area. I stumbled across PPG while heading on a trip to Chicago. I was amazed; as most are when entering. My first trip I came under prepared, as a lot of other activities were planned, and a ton of taxi/walking; so my haul was light. On second and third trip the same mistake was not made. On the 2nd I dropped around 200, and felt like the owner could care less, as I wanted to also look through every game I couldn't reach myself (he looked annoyed). Thinking maybe the shop was having a bad day I decided to return. On trip 3 I spent around 350 on all kinds of stuff, the kicker was I had purchased a snes Soul Blazer from his case. It came with a nice plastic outer box and a price 0f 109 for the complete game. He took my cash and then took the game out of its protective sleeve it was in. I asked kindly if I could have the protective sleeve as I had just spent (what I felt was a ton of cash) on the game. The owner was dumbfounded and looked at me as if I was trying to steal from him. I have not been back since, which is a shame because as a collector of games, cd's, vinyl and cards and just about anything else which tickles my pickle, I love these resale shops that supply my cravings. With this much love comes frustration when I feel like a shop betrays my trust. It happened recently at another record store where an item was marked incorrectly, and the owner refused to honor the price. I told the owner that he had around 120 dollars in vinyl that I wanted and he just lost the sale over 7 dollars. It's a shame really when people are willing to part with hard earned cash and can't receive any slack from said owners of these shops. With out us, the consumer there is no incoming inventory or incoming cash, it would seem wise to me that resale owners always remember this.

I was just at the Hoffman Estates Disc Replay a couple days ago. Almost every Game Boy and DS game had a price sticker stuck right on the label. Since thats what I go there for mostly I can cross them off my list of game stores. Your rant was right on. If brick and mortar stores don't want too play nice I'll just keep my eyes glued to the internet for my game purchasing needs.

"Sneaked out of the house" SNUCK!!! lol

Oh and Glenn, why is it that the black race has ISSUES with CIVILIZATION EVERY PLACE IN THE WORLD?? Interesting social study. And when its all said n done we're right back to the beginning...THEY AINT DA SAME AS EVERYBODY ELSE...i.e., cant "hang" in normal society...cept, bout 10 percent of them. Period. Sad but true.

Democrat legislation at it's finest. The middle class is growing in conservative states like Texas, Florida, North Dakota, etc.

I had Terry as a landlord. He is the 6th landlord I've had in Chicago and was hands down the single worst person (not even landlord) I have ever encountered. DO NOT RENT FROM THIS MAN!!!!

I think the worse examples people like the game chasers, pat the nes punk, the game hunter, etc that pay almost nothing for old ass games then believe they can flip it and get double or even triple the money back for what THEY think it's worth not according to actual value based on the time it's been out and used multiple times. These guy are the default definition of the ASS resellers. They based ebay (which is technically NOT a market) prices of retro games from the 80s and 90s shouldn't ever ever ever value over 100$ because one they are old, they used (or preowned to sound legally), there is a good chance that cart based will eventually die in time and whoever says different obviously don't think bout atari games, so classic and tech is so primitive who would even in this day and age that isn't over 30 or equivalent to a that of a old dad would take time pay 5 bucks for a old Atari cart when in reality they only worth bout 50 cents to 1.00 max. And let's not forget good old nes n64 and snes carts 3 prime examples of how greedy resellers make their unneeded dough. They will take (for example) 3 games - 1 is a ip game mario or zelda, one is a regular game like bomber man or top gear, 1 is some game that no one cares about; because of unnecessary praise, ratings + market value = big money, however take the regular games that's not a ip or didn't get hyped or praised as much and u can pay bout a average 10 to 24 dollars, then take the games no one gives a shit bout and price under 10 (trying to get rid it price). Chrono trigger is another example once upon a time u get for average 40 to 30 suddenly over time 90-120 fucking holy balls.
