[Sofa King Cheap]

new or used? PC games or console games? I'm not familiar with the store much.

[atreyue]

all pc games, (most) all used

[Xevious]

Half Price Books does sell new PC games heavily discounted though. They have used bookstores across the country.

Its definately something to check out if you are a Cheapass PC gamer.

new (unopened) PC games mostly...each store has a different collection......

[gameguy22006]

The one near me also has a decent strategy guide section, so that may also be worth checking out.

Wow i thought they were a local smaller store that's why i haven't posted anything about them before.

But some of my better finds there are:

Old videogame magazines are $1 each
Super Metroid Strategy Guide (great condition) $4.99

Mario Kart Double Dash $19.99 (the version with the demo disc in it)

Shadowrun complete for the Genesis $3.99


I make it a point to stop bye there at least once a week.

FYI: They buy with CASH strategy guides. I've only done it once but if i recall i got like $5 & some change for 7-9 1cent guides. They just give u a reciept after they look over them then u take it to the register and get your money.

[polaricecaves]

so the name of this store is Half Price Books?

thank you - merry christmas

Yes, they're called "Half Price Books."We've got them here in the Pittsburgh area, not sure about how they're distributed regionally though. And yes, a great store - I find many a treasure there. I've bought countless rare game guides, some fantastic OOP music CDs and LPs, some uber rare laserdiscs, not to mention - the one I haunt gives away free coffee and has a really great selection of books in general. I've taken away a handful of decent games through the years, but they seem to be a little tougher to come by. In any event - I highly recommend these stores even if it's not for gaming! :)

Yeah, half price books! Nice game deals, PC and console, rare and common. How many video games have I bought at great prices there? More than I could ever count!

[PenguinMaster]

All of the PC games in the original post were much cheaper at EB when they had their 75% off sale, but still not bad prices.
