A Visit to 2nd and Charles in Woodbridge Virginia

[technozombie]

There is one of these in my area. It's a nice store. When they first opened about 2 years ago I could find some pretty good deals, but now their prices are in line with eBay and sometimes more if they know it will sell.

Half-Price books around me is generally only good for the occasional LaserDisc...games are crazy high-priced. We have a regional chain called Mega Media Xchange here in Milwaukee (and Chicago, too if I remember correctly) who generally have really reasonable prices and goods for PS1/2/3, Wii, XB/XB360, PSP and whatnot. I can routinely go in there and pick up stuff like Godhand, Rez, Valkyria Chronicles, Final Fantasy for like $10 or less.

Aside from that these days - eBay + patience seems to be the cheapest route to acquire stuff (outside of buddy deals).

When I lived in Fayetteville, NC, the 2nd & Charles there had a pretty sweet selection of classic games, but not like that! I picked up most of my Genesis library from that place because every Genesis game was $5. And they had Earthbound for $8. I moved away a couple of years ago, but I bet they've caught wind of the madness going on in classic game collecting and have adjusted their prices accordingly.

I got a Black Sega Sports Dreamcast with matching controller at one in Napervlle IL for 50.00 last year. Beyond that though their prices were not so great in any of the visits I've had.

Our Gainesville 2nd and Charles send a bunch of stuff off to two more opening stores another in Virginia and one in Detroit, they said next in Florida will be Jacksonville but a year away from starting that .
