What about Board Games?
Unfortunately the epic battle of board game manufacturer VS Kickstarter VS game store retailer is over for us.
We appreciate each and every customer that has supported board games in our store. Thank you!
Quite a few of the manufacturers of the most popular games have made it where board games are not sustainable for business. Unreasonable margins, direct to customer prices, pricing restrictions for stores & sales channel restrictions have pretty much eliminated the ability to carry board games in quantity and variety in store. These events have created an environment where we cannot reasonably stock an awesome inventory of board games, which is what we want to do if we're going to offer board games to customers.
The game store industry is about adapting with the market and the times.

----------
Why are we saying goodbye to a game that has been with our retail store since day one?
Unfortunately Yu-Gi-Oh! product is entirely too volatile and is not holding its value on the secondary market. It's looking like we're not going to be able to carry Yu-Gi-Oh! in the future as new booster box releases go as low as $20 less than cost online within a few short days/weeks/months of set release.
Examples at time of posting (7/12/2025):
January 24, 2025 Release 'Supreme Darkness' Store Cost $60, online price $50 shipped
May 5, 2025 Release 'Alliance Insight' Store Cost $60, online price $38 shipped
June 13, 2025 Release 'Monster Mayhem' Store Cost $60, online price $50 shipped
July 4, 2025 Release 'Duelist's Advance' Store Cost $60, online price $40 shipped
The final products we have on order are Justice Hunters, Limited Pack World Championship 2025, 2025 Mega Pack Bundles & Doom of Dimensions (including Premiere)
We will entertain offers if anyone is interested in purchasing our entire Yu-Gi-Oh! inventory or large chunks of inventory. Please feel free to contact us if you're interested.
