Gamestop has, for the longest time, been our go-to used game retail store. Big box stores don’t carry used goods and mom & pop style stores are getting quashed left and right.
But some time ago, Best Buy entered the fray to challenge Gamestop. And now they’re going put the pressure on Gamestop by using a store-within-a-store concept for their used game wares. To put it simply, it’ll be like having a Gamestop inside of a Best Buy.
Dualshockers has got some dirt on the plans including a picture of some sort of flow chart for it as well as details that Best Buy is even hiring specialized advisors.
Not enough for you to abandon Gamestop? What if I said Best Buy will be getting into used hardware sales as well? Or competitive buy-back prices compared to Gamestop? Or that you can also go for a 20% increase on value if you put it on a Best Buy gift card. So you know, you can use that moolah on something other than games?
Gamestop’s going to have to watch their backs when it comes to Best Buy!
