If you do find a shop with older games, they usually just price check with the buy it now prices on ebay. Kinda defeats the purpose if you ask me. As mentioned above, charity stores can be great for a cheap pick up, but your never guarenteed to find anything good. I usually just find old sports games. Ebay has been my friend for a while. Unfortunatly you end up paying more in p&p than you do on the games. Countless times i've won a game for 99p just to get £2-3 p&p. Some folks dont know how good they've got it.

The feeling of finding a shrink-wrapped copy of Star Ocean for $5 from some guy in a classified add is priceless There's a cool retro store in Ann Arbor which is pretty close to me and their prices are ok. The closest pawn shop to me doesn't even price their games though, you ask for a price and then wait around while they look it up on EBay and quote you the highest price they see! It's no wonder they always have shelves full of games.
