    Im from Sacramento and recognzie that sign immediately. Cool to see them getting some exposure. I checked out that store maybe 2 years ago. Also, if anyone is checking it out, the dumpling restaurant aceoss the street called Dumpling House is 🔥.

    Oh man if you're still in Sacramento, hit up the flea market off Folsom Blvd. They have an entire alley of retro games.
    Also Armageddon Potato Game is a warehouse store in West Sacramento.

    Dave's Retro Games inside the Folsom Blvd Flea Market (in Sacramento) that has a TON of retro games (NES, Gameboy, Sega, etc). They're only open Saturday and Sunday but definitely check them out if you're still in town

    Before I left Sacramento, I sold my collection to 1-Up Retro. I'd frequent it because I lived in Midtown, super chill place and atmosphere; it's the key reason I wanted my collection to go there. I think I actually saw my complete copy of Golden Axe 2 in the case in this video.

      Other times, I've inquired about a few items without prices on them and they'll just price them off of the day's eBay listings. I know it's hard to run a brick & mortar store, but they're just trying to charge as much as possible.

    That big open garage door turns me off. I am just imagining all the paper and cardboard slowly get moisture damage from humid air on rainy days. Staples in manuals slowly starting to rust. Me no likey.
    I've been collecting ps1 games over the past few years, 100s and 100s, and I have seen manuals that on the outside the manual staples are fine, but in the middle are completely rusted. Everything else about the manual looks fine. So now I just assume the tiniest bit of moisture can ruin this stuff.
