      Anything good in that second hand bin? Get your physical media now while you still can. We’ll miss it when it’s gone.

      They might as well shut the doors then? Who’s going to buy anything from them when they know there’s a sale coming any moment now

      Post school day memories unlocked of having to commando crawl under the sale signs.

      Another nostalgia item dead. Even if there’s no sale, you can’t just allow people to walk in unobstructed!

      The “Sale” banners are stuck in the Straight of Hormuz. We’ll have to make do with Pokemon signs.

      Where the video games though the only games in this shot are in the bargain bins out the front

      I think the marketing collatoral got delayed or the person tasked with putting it up called in sick.

      I don’t know about EB, but you’ll definitely know that it ain’t real life when Spotlight *isn’t* having a sale.

      I have a friend who works at EB and he reckons they’re circling the drain big time

      There was a recent court ruling against Coles for fake sales. Perhaps EB Games has been spooked.

      r/Australiannostalgia I haven’t seen a sale at EB games for a very long time.

      Did I not read these guys were going out of business only a few months ago?

    27. Damemon on

      I’ve noticed that there’s been no sales for the past few months (at least at all the stalls I frequent past)

      … Zing never seem to have sales either

      I was at a local store the other day whilst the Mrs was shopping, and I could not find ONE Xbox section other than secondhand games…

      Coles and Woolies got smashed for there “sales” these guys are probably doing something similar and have got there shit together 😂

      If you look closely this is an ‘EI3’ Games NOT ‘EB’ Games – quite a common scam, many people have been falling for this

      I mean, there’s 20% off preowned games when you buy a console and discounts on anime merch. It’s not storewide but still a sale.

    36. Chomblop on

      Wonder if this directly relates to the Coles decision – basically said that if something’s almost always on sale then it’s not really on sale, so they need to take 12 weeks or something to establish the “real” prices

    37. StreetCheetah8312 on

      You know you’re fucked when even the kids, teenagers, their parents and all the weeb manchildren stop shopping there…

      EB games is owned by GameStop.

      Fondly remembering the era of deranged conspiracies about how buying Gamestop stock was going to bring down global capitalism and usher in a new era where NEET Redditors were the ruling elite.
