Bazaar Game Trading

I’ve come here a decent amount and have to say that the pricing here is the worst I’ve seen at nearly any retro game store. Out of curiosity I asked an employee how much they give for trade credit, seeing how ludicrous the prices were. He said it ranged from 20-60% depending on the game. Now honestly that isn’t awful but some of these games are well over 50-100% over value. I’m curious on where they get their prices from. I know PriceCharting isn’t exactly the most accurate thing but hell, I’ve checked eBay asking prices for some games and it’s still way lower than what this store sells games for. Doesn’t help that all of their games in the cases have the prices on the back of the box and so I have to ask an employee to open the car just see the price and condition. 9/10 times if it’s in the case it’s priced at 200% market value. Pokémon games are also priced horribly over value. They had Pokémon platinum CIB for SEALED PRICE and a loose Soul Silver for 60 dollar over COMPLETE price. Absolutely not worth your time if you are looking to casually buy some games for decent prices. Look elsewhere.

A true gem. I hadn't really played much in person MTG besides the stray pre-release at another LGS but I had heard Bazaar was the go to place for a good time. Prices are great, love that you get to pull your own boosters out of their vast collection and their bulk selection is GREAT. Highly recommend checking them out and hit up the singles too, some absolute HEAT I'm seeing there. My go to for some chill commander games and it should be yours too

I stopped by Bazaar after having a rather sour experience down the street at another retro store. For context I was about 45 minutes from home so I don’t typically venture up as far as Nashua. The store set up looked really nice and the aesthetic was chill. After browsing the shelves of PS2 for a few seconds I noticed they had Jak X Combat Racing for $14 over CIB PriceCharting, now I bring that up because that game is $12 all day long on eBay and then $6 shipping but not $26…especially when you can easily get a copy for $8 on eBay with shipping costs barely exceeding the $16-18 figure. After seeing their low to mid range priced games it was clear that some were priced fair and decent and others I had no idea where they got their pricing from. I then went over to the heavy hitter case…when I tell you virtually every ps2 game I looked at (except Persona 4 I think that was priced fair) was well past CIB price charting. I get a store has overhead but danggg $350 for Def Jam FFNY when you can get a CIB copy on eBay for $160…oh and Silent Hill 3 for $400 is also ludicrous when you see numerous copies sold at $260-280 last week. The guy working was incredibly friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I ended up picking up a couple games that were fairly priced but safe to say I won’t be going out of my way to go back unless they fix their pricing.

Staff is great, very friendly and accommodating. The space is small but not claustrophobic. They've a cool selection of older games, accessories, and a fair amount of Magic the Gathering stuff. The community of folk that play Commander/Prerelease there is among the most open and welcoming I've ever had the pleasure to experience. Cool vibes, good people, often kind people. (I don't normally leave reviews and I hope that the want to support this place, having driven me to do so is a further indication of how highly I appreciate and recommend this store.)

Staff was amazing! I honestly never leave reviews and I'm taking the time to do so because it was a very nice and friendly experience, they went out of their way to try out a controller I didn't know if it would work on the Wii U. There's a bunch of retro games and hardware for very competitive prices, from 3 retro games stores I went to in the week I wrote this, this was the only store that had Wii game controller adapters. So definitely give the store a visit!
