Question about where to buy old games.

[Hoffgod]

I guess Deal/Shopping Discussions is the right place for this...
Does anyone know of any gaming stores (B&M) that carry large amounts old games? I just bought a Sega Genesis at a local thrift store, but the only game they had there that was any good was Sonic 2.
I know GS & EB don't carry old games. I know GameCrazy does, but there isn't one nearby where I live.
Any leads?

Yard Sailing is your best bet.

Aye. Sail the yards laddie.

There are a couple of nice locally owned stores in my area in addition to a Game Crazy.

They are Book Broker (Evansville, IN), Book & Music Exchange (Henderson, KY and Evansville, IN) and Game Haven (Cookeville, TN). Book Broker and Game Haven (I don't get to GH very often as, well, it's 5 hours away) have lots of Genesis games, but unfortunately, only one of the BMEs has any Sega stuff. If there's anything in particular you're looking for, please let me know and I'll do my best to seek it out if it's within reason.

I wish you luck at the yard sales though.

As for chains, Rhino has a really good selection of older games. They don't appear to have any stores in VA. There are some in Kentucky.
