Blockbuster Cleaning House

[moycon]

A couple weeks ago a BB employee told me that they would be selling off the rest of their N64 and Playstation One games. Up until today just about every BB had anywhere from 1 to 5 previously viewed games for sale at any time. Today I went into one and they had about 30!!

I picked up Tony Hawk 2 and Conker for $2.99
Rampage World tour for 6.99

The games ranged from expensive....Ms Pac-Man (Something) was $29.99
Mid Pokeman Puzzle $14.99 but most were 6.99.

Last week I picked up Ogre Battle 64 and Tony Hawk 3 for 6.99

If you dont mind having to remove stickers from the back of the carts, now is a great opportunity to pick up some cheap games.

Thanks for the tip! Looks like I'll be making the rounds today.

I was at mine last night and they only had Mario Kart and one other for sale (no manulas or I would have picked them up). They had a bunch on the shelves still, but they were still renting them! I'm eyeing the Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine closely...

Most of the BB's near me have already cleared out all their N64 stuff. I think I bought most of it. They have been a GREAT source for N64 games though. Of the 100 that I have I'd say at least 60 game from Blockbuster.

There's still a couple that rent N64 and I'm watching closely. They will be mine, oh yes, they WILL be mine.

Heh. I remember back in the day saying that about a local rental place and their TG games. They had a near complete set of US TG games... I worked a deal with the guy that when he sold them off, he would contact me and I woudl give him $10 each for them (which was quite generous). One day I went in and they're all gone... I asked him wtf happened, he said "oh, some guy offered me $5 each right there so I sold them". I asked him what was wrong with my $10, he said "you were serious?".

I nearly kicked his fat ass. >:(

Good stuff!!

Got a whole load of BB titles over the past two weeks, but I don't know about them clearing ALL their games out. I've been to one where they have Mario Party 2 for sale, and another where they only have it for rent. Seems each one is selling just a few that they don't get rentals on anymore...and this of coure varies from BB to BB. But, I did score these tonight:

Triple Play 2000 boxed: $2.99
Razor Freestyle Scooter (boxed): $6.99 (this is my second one, trade anyone?)
Ridge Racer 64 (boxed): $6.99

There were more, but I ran out of cash. Seems their pricing system is kind of stupid. They aren't really pricing them in terms of rarity, but in terms of rental usage. In other words, if some really crap game that should be $2.99 got alot of rental time, they consider it worth more and therefore charge $19.99 for it! I've seen a few like this already since I have about 6 different BB's I go to.

I will have to check that out.ALso for those people who didnt get books with the games go back and ask for them .My bb manager said he will only give you the books if you ask for them so your bb might be the same way.
