I have always wanted to run my own store, so here goes! :D

I would be more than happy to move on prices for DP forum users.
If you have suggestions or comments please let me hear 'em.

I only have the selling pages up right now. The rest of the site is still WIP.

It may not be much, but it's mine.

The Arakanoid controller for $15! :eek 2: That is way to cheap. I've seen it go on ebay for over a $100 before. And that was just for the controller nothing else. @_@ Cool site. But you know that it says "Gelling" instead of "Selling", don't you?

Not a bad starter site. Needs some updating tho :) If you keep going with it, I'd recommend doing a bit of HTML practice. It's hard at first, but can make a HUGE difference in your sales.

And a Vaus controller (Arkanoid controller) is not worth anything near $100. Maybe $10-15 but not $100. I think I paid $10 for the last one I bought, but it was from a friend.

I wish I could have authored the entire site html with notepad. I'd be done with the whole thing by now! We got a merchant-hosting account with homestead that we pay for so I kinda got shunted into using their sitebuilder app for this project. I'm looking into a way I can use the pages I make with notepad and still use paypal for the store (PayPal elements are included in the sitebuilder app). It's going to take a while for me to call it a finished project since I am limited to working at it a few hours a week. Thanks for the comments, they are mucho appreciated :)

What?! They are so much cheaper now on ebay. Good prices for your site!

Actually, it does say "Selling" The colors clash and make the "S" look like a "G".

For that professional look, add a few breaks on the bottom of the games list (NES) so it won't look like it's been cut out.

Other than that it's started off well. Keep it up.

How many dust sleeves do you have for NES games?

Wow... I thought this thread dropped of the side of the world LOL
Anywho... I think I have about 8 still... To be honest, I've been doing better business listing the stuff here in the forums... so, my inventory lists on the site are horridly outdated. I'm mainly interested in trades these day's but, as always, olde-fashioned cash works too :D
I'll get back in contact with you tomorrow with a firm count on the sleeves.
