I LOVE this game! It's addicting! It's the kind of game that you'll want to play before work. It's giving me all the flash backs when I was a kid =D I'm having trouble with the value system and remembering what sells and what doesn't. It turns out I'm not that good of a haggler/salesman. Oh well. Someone actually made a youtube video on this so that's helpful too heh. Great game though! I'll be downloading this on my android for sure!

And I've added this game to my favourites list. That doesn't happen often at all so that's a pretty big compliment =D Thanks for all the flashbacks from the 90's on =D

This is a list of each item in the game "Vintage Game Shop". Each item's name corresponds with its name listed on the "collection" page in game. Each name is followed by the item's functional value or the amount of money you'll get if the item is not broken. Next is the number of days until the item will be sold, which is placed in brackets. If the number is zero, that means it will be sold by the end of that very day. Next and last is the nonfunctional value or the amount of money you'll get for selling the item broken. This number is surrounded by pound symbols and is equal to one-fourth of the functional value.

Occasionally I'll jot down a few notes about what you should usually try to offer, but you shouldn't stand by these too much. O is for how much you should offer first, and B is for what your final blowout offer should be. Best is for my personal best offer.

The list is a little farther down below, but you may want to go over the strategy first.

=-=-=-=-=-=-=-

There are two kinds of items: Regular Items and Valuable Items. Valuable items are items with a functional value at or above $250. Regular items are everybody else. Your main goal at the start will be to buy and sell some Valuable items, but you will probably find yourself selling a lot of Regular items first. Late game, you won't need to bother with any regular items at all, and just focus on Valuable items. Valuable items are marked with a star on the list below. Later game, you'll only need to buy items above $500 or $700.

SECTION A: When someone offers you an item, ALWAYS TEST IT FIRST, then offer them a little under half value. (if its $20 offer $9, but if it's anything higher then offer them 37.5% of the value. For example, OoT is $400, and 37.5% of 400 is 150, so your starting offer should be 150 on OoT) Then offer them the same amount again. If the second time they say "You know it's worth more than that!" then go to section B. If they tell you they're changing the selling price or tell you they're keeping it the same, then go to section C.

SECTION B: You offered too low. Try offering 10% higher or so. Once they start telling you they're changing the selling price or that they're keeping it the same, go to section C.

SECTION C: Keep the price the same until their patience is at 2. Then drastically increase your price by 20% for the final offer.

To earn this medal you must have $10,000 at once. Yes, you actually have to see your money counter at $10k, we aren't totaling all of the money you've ever earned. Once you sell a Nintendo-Sony Play Station, pass all the offers unless you can see a star before them on this list. Those are the only items worth your time because they're the only ones you can get any real money from at this point. Of course, you could just hope and pray that you'll get another Nintendo-Sony Play Station while passing over all other offers if you want to go that route.
