Well, I neither have the extreme highs that GameStop has (8 deep? I've never had that), nor the lows (my January has been quite busy, as it was last year this time).

Then again, I view my business as a different kind of thing than GameStop. "Old" games & systems, LAN center, system repairs, and of course top-notch chatter In fact, I work very hard at getting repeat business, both from customers buying and customers trading in which I believe keeps things steady during tough retail times.
