Trying to peddle common US release carts on there just doesn't work, rarities, or perceived rarities(games made expensive by fools) they'll move yet I can't speak if they would as well as ebay with the highest bid with a low user base compared. I have bought from it a couple times, from Japanese importers as I got some fun GB games cheaper and faster than ebay would have done. GG I think is good and needs to exist, and it has had some high profile rarities hit the news like protoypes or one of those boxed Stadium Events games too, but anything else it seems this guy has touched has turned to garbage in short order.

Maybe a better way to spend his time and money would be to make GG more public, more welcoming, and a damn good sight with a lot more users where any gamer can feel free to peddle or buy free of ebay. That would be a good service and help clean his name and rep up I think to a degree.
Yeah but didn't Mike Kennedy just pay off Chase the Chuck Wagon and slap his logo on their pre-built infostructure? Although having two competing sites for the same niche audience was pointless and merging the two communities was the best possible move for both parties involved.
