B&M sale at VGD (Multimedia 1.0) in NYC ..25% off used/10% off New and more

[defender]

As many of you know VideoGameDeals.com is actually run by me and I have a real store (B&M) in the East Village.

I am having a clearance sale to make room for other merchandise. This sale will NOT be online and I will NOT answer products inquiries. You MUST visit the store to get whatever we have...and we do have a lot.

The sale is

25% off all used games...and I have a TON of titles in stock for as low as $9.99 for PS2, Xbox, and GameCube games so the sale price is as low as $5.

20% off all NEW accessories. This includes controllers, mem cards, and just about any console accessory. This does NOT include the actual hardware such as systems themselves.

10% off all NEW games....all of them! That includes all the new releases which I have in the store for $48.99 so take off 10% and that's $44 for NEW GAMES! And Greatest Hits at $19.99 would be $18.

I have a TON of inventory and I am just trying to clear space out. The Sale will last till at least next Monday March 29,2004. But may be extended.

Our address is

Multimedia 1.0
18 Saint Marks Place (8th Street bet. 2nd and 3rd Ave)

Please do not call us asking what is in stock as we wont say. Those lucky enough to visit and get in on the great deals please post here to let other users know about what great deals you got.

Enjoy.

I highly recommend a trip to defenders store, even if he wasn't having this sale.
He has so much classic stuff, it will bring a tear to your eye.

I second that, I used to go everytime I was in NY. Too bad I haven't been there in a few years. I got my DC arcade sticks there, and saw a lot of other cool stuff.

[defender]

Yeah its just a few blocks away.

[jkam]

Cool. I'll have to leave my house a little early and check out the sale.

[jshawnd]

defender, I didn't realize that you were connected with that store on St. Mark's Place...what a coincidence. Great store! I used to go there when I lived in NYC (until Dec 2001). I loved walking in and just looking at things...all the old systems and games (then, of course, lamenting all the electronics that I had thrown away when I was younger (the Coleco mini-arcade games, etc.)). Between your store and all the used CD shops on that street, I could spend hours there.

I think when I was there, I bought various Atari Lynx games on 2 or 3 different occasions. I couldn't believe how cheap they were. Great stuff. Thanks.

[King Bahamut]

How long is this sale going on for?

[nogard]

Nice, can u tell me what train goes there? and what station to get off that is close to the store?

[SneakyPenguin]

its not that far from union square. i might try and make a trip this weekend. hope you still will have classics left by then.

[Arakias]

I didnt know that was your store! Ive been there several times, love the place. Have to check it out this weekend if I can get into the city.

[drfrielgood]

Wow, 50% off used games. I'd be all over that one! Too bad I'm stuck here in Michigan...

[Gothic Walrus]

Same here...even the Michigan part.

Any chance that someone would be willing to send me a few free games to help ease my sorrows? :D

[sm04as]

No free games, however, if you are looking for something in particular, pm me and I'll go have a look see. If any CAG member is looking, let me know! :o

[Sporadic]

Damn this sucks. I wish online could be involded too......I am in Florida.

[magilacudy]

Interesting. I'll try to pop in this weekend.

What I'll go through for games... :)

[jshorr]

What are the store hours of operation? I'm there tomorrow!

[Rich]

Maybe I'll be lucky enough to get there and find Valkyrie Profile...oh hell, who am I kidding, it's fate that only eBay will satisfy my damned VP desire. Damn you, eBay, damn you!

[defender]

We are open noon till 10pm but if you think to wait till the weekend you are gonna miss out on many of the 1/2 price games.

[jshorr]

Noon till ten every day or only on the weekend?

[yellowaznboy]

I'm on the west coast, but I think if I play enough Earthbound, I will inherit Ness's ability to teleport long distances. :lol:

That 50% off used game is amazing.

[defender]

Noon till ten every day is just fine

[jshorr]

I will be there later today! I've been to the store multiple times in the past, it's a great store....like others have said, especially the classics. It was like 6-7 years ago when I was in college I was hurting for cash and sold a tabletop Pac-Man and a tabletop Popeye to you guys....I think I took the trade in value for an N64 wrestling game....good memories....see you later today.

[bang4dabuc]

I live 3 blocks away. 8)

Gonna check it out either today or tomorrow. BTW, do we need to mention CAG or is the sale good to the general public?

[jrutz]

Hey defender - stopped by today. Everyone not in the NYC area should be jealous - that store is sweet!

Didn't find what I was looking for (either I had the game already or passed on it before when it was on the cheap), but there were still plenty of deals to be had.

Thanks!

Jeremy

[MasterSun1]

If anybody can help out a west coaster, that would be great. I'm looking for the following:

Cubivore (GCN)
Culdcept (PS2)
Tech Romancer (DC)

Used copies only please.

[defender]

Cubivore is new at VGD for $28.99
http://www.videogamedeals.com/product_info.php/products_id/1446

Add an item to get over $30 and use freetoship coupon for free shipping.

[ChessPieceFace]

If only I'd looked at the forum more carefully yesterday! I didn't find any great GC used deals, perhaps because they'd already been picked over.

I did, however, pick up a Platinum Wavebird for $24, so definite thanks for the heads-up on the sale!

[paean]

Shout out to defender!

I bought a couple of games from this sale (Freekstyle $5, NBA Street Vol 2 for $7.50), I saw some really good deals, like FFX-2 for $19 used (only 1 copy I think), and maybe some odds and ends. It is hard to see what used games are available since they are mixed in with the new.

Anyway, thanks! :)

I almost bought that copy of FFX-2 but decided to wait until it's a GH. Instead I got a copy of Suikoden III ($15) and a copy of Super Mario RPG ($20). Great sale!

[defender]

Yeah this 1/2 price sale is killing me. I am gonna end it.

I will continue with the 10% off NEW and 20% off accessories but games have to be 25% off starting tomorrow.

Sorry but I lost too much money today and sales just werent enough to make up for that. I am trying to clean out inventory but at the same time I have to stay in business. I am glad many of you stopped in today to get some good deals.

There are still lots and lots of good deals. Heck..10% off all the new games is just good enough. I have my new games at $48.99 so 10% off makes them $44. That's better than the BB gift card.

[sm04as]

Ahh!!!!! I was going back there again to pick up some more things. :o

illennium, you beat me to it I guess. I was thinking of getting that game, hence my Suikoden post. I'm just a bit to slow these days. :wink:

[thakingrocka]

ill try to swing by. save me something good :)

[edit]
crap. i hadn't read page 2 when i posted that :(

[SneakyPenguin]

uhhh defender, you should edit the topic. its kinda misleading now that the 50% off sale is defunct. oh well it was nice while it lasted (for those lucky few, myself not included)

[defender]

Good Idea.

[thakingrocka]

stopped in today after work. sorry i missed ya. oh well. i didn't find anything i wanted to pick up. though i did grab a $10 dvd. that should not be any indication though of what sections to focus on. it's all about the games man. sometime i'll try again and see if i can catch ya. love the old goodies man. haven't seen a turbo-grafix game box since i was a wee one.

[BigBen]

Dropped by today, and was told that the sale ended yesterday, oh well...

[defender]

Someone came in and bought $2000 worth of games...just about ALL my budget games and cheap used $10 section.
