If I Lie, It’s Worth More!

“Gamer’s Edge”

“What is a Gran Turismo worth in trade?”

“$8 to $9 if its in mint condition.”

“Why so little?”

“Because it sells for $20 brand new. Not withstanding #2 being a touch more, and number 3 just came out.”

“Ok.”

Customer then asks about what games are in, and decides on one.

Customer comes down to the store.

“So, you said $10 for Gran Turismo?”

“Assuming I did, it would be for one that had the instruction books and case. “

“So?”

“So it’s a hell of a lot harder to sell in a plastic rental case with no packaging. When one says they just bought it and it was new, that implies it was new when they bought it recently. That is not new.”

“So, $10?”

“More like $2.”

“I think I’ll keep the game.”

“Please.”
