    I do remember them saying that they were no longer doing business over facebook because it was too much work or something.

    I can see their point.

    It's a bit of hassle having to post items when you already have a brick n' mortar shop to take care of. You would almost want another member of staff employed to take care of it and that costs money.

    It's grand for places like Music Technology -> which is just one of the stores in Dublin I've used that does the national delivery thing, but they don't update their website much, and they take orders over the phone rather than online.

    They sell *new* stock, Rage however do not. And the products Music Tech sell would cost a lot more than a few old carts.


    I honestly don't think there's much money to be made for Rage by selling second hand games and the odd few consoles online, especially when people are going to be bitching about the price difference on ebay.

    That's just my 0.02 euros though.

    Whatever happened to calling into store, having a bit of friendly banter and enjoying the personal touch to customer service?

    How is it anti-social suggesting an online shop could help increase their sales and that it would also be handy for those folk who don't live around the corner? Or have the time or money to waste having friendly banter.

    Anyone want to come in with me and open up a retro shop in Dublin?
    I need someone with good business sense and no morals to speak of :D

    edit:
    I see someone made a comment that retr0 be unblocked on their facebook page.
    Judging by the persons profile picture and some descriptions that were posted here of certain members I have a feeling I know who it is ;0)

    There has been good suggestions, but there has also being ranting / moaning in the thread at the same time.
    I did not dismiss every post as a rant, but thanks for trying to make it look that way. icon14.gif

    The suggestions will be non constructive, or in other words "in vain", if they're never presented to the owners of Rage.

    That's the exact point I was making.

    But people aren't going to buy from them online when eBay has the same items cheaper. To be perfectly frank why would they?

    I don't like buying online when I can help it - part of the attraction of collecting old games and consoles for me is the hunt, and browsing an actual shop and finding a gem is one of my favourite parts of the hobby - browsing shops in Tokyo last year was just mind blowing for me. Others aren't that fussed about that side of things, which is no problem - for them there's eBay and dedicated online stores. For people like me there's shops like the RAGE.

    And if they don't have the specific game you asked for, their upselling opportunity is gone. Along with your chance of spotting something else you might have wanted.

    Anti-social? We're only pointing out that RAGE caters best for people in Dublin. There's 31 other counties that might like to buy from them.

    I did, when they came on to the internet here to make us aware of their new store. I'll try & find the posts for you, but they were a long time ago. You know what they answered with? They didn't bother to answer the simple question ;)

    They've posted games before afaik, saw people asking on Facebook in the past and remember them saying they take paypal. Seemed quite informal though.

    As it happens I'm always in town for some reason or another, normally a couple of times a week so I can safely say I wouldn't avail of an online store, I enjoy dropping in :)

    Many, many, many other people don't be in town for some reason or another. I'd like to drop in too. An online option wouldn't remove the ability to drop in either.

    They're nowhere near that busy. When something sells, pack it all up 20 mins before closing & have it all ready to be posted the next morning. They seem wildly unefficient & lazy if they can't handle something like that. The management seem to have no drive or desire to provide a broader service.

    Fair enough, as I said, no skin off my nose. I'll simple shop elsewhere. I don't see why people are seemingly taking offence at the suggestion that we have a simple place to see what they have in stock & what the price is. Blasphemy or something.

    The only ranting/moaning, has been on the part of those who see it as unappreciative of us to expect a store & price list of the RAGE. Anything esle has been personal opinion & constructive criticism.

    Eh, for one we would be negating international postal charges? Even if the items worked out at the same price due to the lower postal charge, we'd still order from RAGE. Why? Another reason would be we would get the items quicker? Are you sure you've thought this through?

    I'm basing it on anecdotes presented on the thread. Mainly the one that mentioned it cost 30e for three NES games in the RAGE vs 40e for 6 on eBay. Would postage even that out? Apologies if I got the numbers wrong there, hard to filter through posts on a phone :)

    I don't get why a small shop in Dublin that appears to be doing well for itself as-is should be worried about providing a service for other parts of the country if they don't need to. But maybe it's because it takes me an hour to get into town via bike/bus/dart and I could do without folk stripping the place of stock behind their computers during my trip :)

    Incidentally I do agree that it'd be nice to have a list of stock and the prices.

    Jaysus I was DONE with that conversation last night, but yeah,
    an oul stock list wouldn't go astray I agree, or even a few "new in this week* posts.

    I still think the whole online shop thing is a bit too much effort though and would be unrewarding in the case of rage.

    I just don't think there's enough money to be made from second hand stuff to make it profitable, especially when they have high rent to pay, and even more especially not at "ebay prices" anyway.

    Based on your survey of retro collectors country wide? How do you come to this conclusion that the cost of opening an Adverts shop, far outweighs the benefit of exposing your products nationwide?

    Well if I lived in the area I reckon I'd be spending a few bob in there on a regular basis. It's even nice just to browse the selection even if nothing takes your fancy, there's something cool about seeing old retro games and machines for sale in a shop in Ireland. Just a shame I don't live near it.

    While away on a business beano, I had a look round HMV and happened across this still sealed coffee table book. Asian Graphics is the title and at only £4, it's a great bargain I think.

    I bought this in Jersey so I'm not sure if it'll be available in Irish HMV stores but it's worth a look I think. :)

    Not without building an encoder :(

    Edit - I can't find the site atm, but I looked at it before. You replace the screen but you have to build an interface & encoder to make the signal understandable to the new screen. Looked like the type of job that just doesn't justify the work. Mastersystem games in high quality you say? Use a Megadrive & Adapter.

    Aye, an LED backlight mod is only other type of mod. I done it before, no real difference screen wise but does help with power consumption.

    The GameGear's biggest flaw is without a doubt the crappy screen.

    Serious amount of postage on that. Cool Pac-Man duvet underneath it though. :)

    Baffling such a device even exists, makes no sense to own one. Is it if you have MD carts but not the console to play them on? Surely not just so you can use a Snes pad with an MD game? Weird.

    Although if it had an SD card slot in it Cidey would be all over it. :pac:
