Yeah their whole model never made much sense to me tbh. idk how to make it work in todays world. maybe online only with a partnership with a big time shipper like a UPS for the shipping needs. do away with the brick and morter and cut way down on employment costs. pretty much a warehouse of used products.
Say a PS5/XSX (obvious post scalper craze but still a $500 msrp) would net the seller 350 and be resold for 400-420+tax.
Still, in todays world (non Covid Times) idk why all but the largest of recluses would prefer that vs an offerup in a public place and get it at more aound 380-400.
I bought my Xbox One X with a Rig700 headset and a Power A charging stand this past December for $140
A yellow Switch Lite with Ringfit/The Witcher3/Fire Emblem3houses and a Leather Travel case for $220
and back in 2014 a Ps4 OG for 240 with MLB15 included. p2p if you are smart, patient and ready to jump on a good deal is the way too go.
Only system I bought new was my Spiderman Pro for obvious reasons.
I understand some peoples worries though. I met the Ps4 guy at his place to confirm it worked.
Obviously I could test the Switch in public and I rolled the dice on the Xbox one X because of the deal and the sellers star rating on the Offerup app. still Gamestop and their current business model just doesn't make sense unless you REALLY don't wanna drive 5-20 minutes to meet someone.
Same goes for games themselves. I've gotten utterly killer deals for people not 5-10 minutes away.
