    The 2024 Gamestop Thread

    I had been picking up these with my monthly. It was nice because they weren’t blind boxes - the outside showed the figure you were getting. And my kid loves Kirby.

    My closest store was 6 miles away. It at least was close to Aldi so I’d go when I was grocery shopping there. Now the closest is a little further out, but not near anything I’d go for an errand on. If that one closes (which it might, it never was busier than the one i used which is closing)...

    We have 3 Switches. We’ll just get the Switch 2 as an additional system. Only thing I’m actually worried about is if it launches while we are spending 3 weeks in Japan this summer so I’d have to send it to my mom’s house.

    Less places for people to trade in games/consoles in too. Make distance too far for people, they aren’t going to trade in their games for a few bucks. They’ll use one of the many online marketplaces or just keep them because the time & gas won’t make it worthwhile.

    Pretty bold of you to assume they will sell the system by itself. They will most likely be selling crap filled bundles.

    They are supposed to go to the closest store. The employee needs to do something to the POS to get them forwarded. Safest bet is to go in and cancel and then redo the preorders at the store you want to use going forward.

    Damn, is Wave 3 the last wave of closures for January? Or will there be another week of them?

    Target Clearance Thread XXIV

    Groceries are low profit items. After expenses, they only make 1-3% on them. So no, they aren’t in it for the money on groceries. They are in it to get butts in their store to buy other higher profit margin stuff.

    Because nobody needs the Pops & tchotchke that are on clearance.

    That’s usually when the store has an outside company run the closeout - actual store employees aren’t the ones in the store at that point. As far as I know the GameStops that are closing just close. No sign in the window that they will be closing. Just box up what’s left and send it to another...

    I looked at the Fantasian MC. Eh, he looks like an otome MC. Like maybe a cinnamon roll style character. Maybe since it started as a gacha game they were trying to appeal to a female audience with the look.

    Times have changed. Something like 70% of parents play video games. Video games are not new, many people that are now parents played video games as kids (and continue to play them). And getting information out to people has changed dramatically. You no longer rely on them catching a...

    Newington too? Dang. Knew about Rocky Hill - that was my main. Pretty sure the Manchester one is safe since that one always feels busy. But it is out of the way.

    I wouldn’t be holding anything to flip right now. Unless you have a high concentration of stores in the area so that at least one will be left after the culling this month.

    The ones closing on the 18th aren’t on the list. That’s only the ones closing tomorrow.

    No, there are more closing later this month. I went into my main store to use my $5. The usual guy asked me if I had any open preorders because they are closing the 18th. (They are one of the stores that got closing boxes before the announcement this week). my store is not on that list…yet.

    Add to the fact that you can easily buy GameStop gift cards at 15% off often, it is not worth the hassle.

    Canada has a tax break period from December 14, 2024 to February 15, 2025. That’s the only reason they are mentioning it.
