The store called "2nd Time Around" in Seattle, WA is no longer there, please remove from the list. And Everyday Music moved it should now be:

Everyday Music
1523 10th Ave.
Seattle WA 98122
(206)568-3321

I am also checking out a place called D-Pad Games that I will let you know about.

I know most of you aren't ever going to be in the middle of the Pacific buying a Saturn like I was on my first visit here, but they are a top tier import store. The guys who own the place are straight out of Japan even. They even have Kyo Kusanagi as their mascot on the front of the building!

NOTES

The two Bargain Shops in Jacksonville are amazing. They each have vast selections of retro games at fair prices.

The Cah Converter locations are like nice pawn shops that both carry a large number of retro games. Dale's Thirft Shop in Burgaw is similar, but with a better selection of retro games.

The Edward McKay locations contain retro games in addition to their books, music, and movies.

The Goodwill Computer Works store is a Goodwill location that collects all of the computer-related items - including video games - donated to Goodwill in the greater Charlotte, North Carolina area. It has an excellent selection of retro games at or below market price.

Of all the Play N Trades in the Charlotte area, the one on East WT Harris has the best selection of retro games.

Now that I have given away all of my secret video game hunting spots, I expect some of the other North Carolinians on this site to step up and list some more stores.

I have one for British Columbia, Canada

A-Z Video Games
748 Broadway East
Vancouver, BC V5T 1X9
(604) 874-3919

They have a very good selection of what I saw his prices were a little on the high side. I've only been there once and didn't stay for that long, since I was in somewhat of a rush so I can't testify to the quality of service there, but supposedly it pretty good according to my friend.

Well, I just learned that my web browser has a key combination that closes all open tabs without a prompt. :? Sorry, I'll have to start adding them over again.

This list is a big help—thanks for keeping it up! I'll add some of my local places shortly, but I do want to give a thumbs up to People Play Games in Chicago and the Disc Replay stores that I have been to (so far Flint and Lansing, MI and Fort Wayne, IN). People Play Games tends to have some rare stuff in stock (last time I was there they had a couple of NES prototype carts), while Disc Traders is a good place to pick up common games for cheap.

From the Ohio list, neither Ani Games nor The Game Room in Toledo seem to sell video games.
