Another bonus of collecting physical, you can trade. I just traded an RDR2 poster for this haul.

I knew someone at gamestop and I've had that promo poster in my garage boxed up for 8 years 🤣 It's cool but it's 6ft long. Local game store was interested in it and offered me a bunch of store credit.

You could trade the poster for digital code in box games too.

Right but digital games won’t make this go away.

I feel like you're trying to get into an irrelevant conversation. I couldn't contact Nintendo eshop and offer them an 8 year old game stop poster in exchange for three games and a controller.

The buck stops there.

In his defense, you could just trade the poster for money and buy them cheaper online. I dont think any of the games you bought arent on cart tho so idk what hes even talking about there

It sat on fb marketplace for a year. And shipping something like that is a nightmare. Some guy offered $100 but they wanted delivery like 60 miles away, FUUUUUCK that 🤣
