The R.A.G.E. update

The.rage

I just wanted to let everyone know that The RAGE on Fade St. will be reopening within the next couple of weeks. I came in on Stephen's Day to grab an RGB cable for the N64 to bring to a party (modern TV's ) for a Goldeneye/Mario Kart session and was faced with a veritable waterfall occurring in the shop. Everything behind the counter including ALL of our consoles got absolutely soaked and the basement was flooded to the point where there was over 6 inches of water pooling. The feeling in my stomach at that particular moment was indescribable. After the constant running of heaters and dehumidifiers the shop is now dry, but there is a substantial amount of work that still needs to be done. During this forced interim I am literally working day & night to rebuild our console & games collection with the aim to make it better than ever.

Prior to the flood I think we had a very good thing going in the sense that we were probably one of the only shops in Dublin, irrespective of what we were selling, to offer competitive prices to Ebay or other online sites and the feedback from all of you was phenomenal. The last few months have been excellent in that I have gotten to meet so many people from so many different places who are as enthusiastic about video games as I am. I truly appreciate everyone's concern and support during this unfortunate episode. As soon as I know when we are reopening I will post on boards and we will continue to update via www.facebook.com/therage

See you soon,
Nicholas DiMaio

p.s. If you or anybody you know has a spare console that they don't mind parting with, give us a shout!

Good news im also in the process of rebuilding the middle part of my collection and was planning a trip up to get a NES, Snes, Megadrive and maybe a N64 so keep me updated about when its open and stock levels.

Also need a new power cable for an Atari VCS, so that will be a good haul.

Glad to hear things are getting all cleaned up and back on track I might have a PS1 for you if you need it

Great news to hear you're coming back. Took a trip up there during the week and feared the worst when I saw the shutters down.

Nice to hear you'll be back, I think everyone here took it pretty hard when the store was closed due to the disaster.
It is the years first good news story to hear of your intent to reopen.
I urge everyone with doubles of consoles to perhaps donate them, to help the store overcome its stock crisis.
I think I have a 2600 and Megaman2 here somewhere.

Great to hear you'll be back stronger than ever!

I'll be taking a trip up soon and i'll call in with lots of gold to spend!

I have a few doubles and I'd be happy to donate them, drop me a pm if you want and I can drop them into trout records when you're there.

I think its a Mega Drive and N64 with no leads or pads and 3 or 4 games
