Thank you; my logic is that I'd rather assume Devin Thomas's contract than just about anyone else in the draft. i.e. would you rather have Thomas at 4 years, $4 million or Jake Long at 5 years, $57.5 million?

I'm sorry I missed the meetup and the elusive abhinav. Sounds like another good time for everyone. (It's been a busy month, and I had to work through that weekend.)

hey does anyone know of any decent mom and pop stores or good pawn shops north of DC? The only ones I really ever go to are gamer junction and cd/game exchange

How in the world did you ever find Gamer Junction? It is tucked away in a neighborhood strip mall. Only about 5 minutes from my home, to boot.

I live across the street from it. I walk up there sometimes. I've made friends with the owners haha, they know me by name. I guess we live pretty close by.

Thats funny, I live about a half mile from it myself, didn't know it existed!

I never even heard of Gamer Junction. I need to find it.

Here is some info on it. Pretty cool place. I'd reccomend it. The owners are very nice

Montgomery Village, MD 20886

I stopped by there this past Saturday. The store seemed to have more DVDs than games and the owners(who I assumed were the middle aged couple behind the counter) didn't even speak. I thought perhaps they were just busy, but when I asked a question and was met with rolling eyes and a sigh, I just left. One would think that in a world where Mom and Pop stores are becoming extinct that 'Mom' and/or 'Pop' would provide the customer service that the big stores wouldn't.

...and that's the reason that I no longer go there. They can be ornery with certain people.

haha I can see that actually. For some reason they seem to like me at least. Anyone know of other similar stores though?

Same deal with me. Checked it out a couple of times but got the ornery attitude.

Shame really, I try to support local stores (especially for gaming/media) but not worth the trip.

Hey if anyone wants a sealed copy of FF IX: Revenant Wings DS, I found one at Target for $20. Let me know, and I'll sell for cost + tax + shipping. Otherwise, it's going back to the store for someone else to find. Thanks!

Looks like a lot of fun. I am definitely interested!

Head up everyone. I stopped off at the Best Buy in Fairfax this afternoon (Fair Lakes/Oaks) and at the 360 section endcap, they had about 12 Halo 3 legendary editions, plus the strategy guide for $60. Maybe not a huge deal, but not bad considering its original retail price.

This is more than likely a manager special.

nevermind, wrong region

Hello all,

Long-time lurker here. Would like to trade with local CAGs! Check my meager list below.

Huh, I've never seen this place, yet I apparently live 4.17 miles away. Is this in the shopping center that is across the street from the one with Giant, Blockbuster, Hungry Howies, and a pet supply store? Is there a McDonalds in the parking lot?

Hey all, I know the last meet up was pretty recent, but I figured I would throw this out there. PLAY! is coming to the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra on July 18th, at the Meyerhoff concert hall. I am getting a group of friends together to go and figured I would see if any of my fellow CAGs are interested.
