I'm opening a gaming store!

Wave 1 of 4 shipments in that photo. Much more still arriving! That was from this morning.

I’ll take one of everything!

So ok --that is looking great!

I guess you have metrics on what sells best.

Yeah, that’s gotta be a great advantage to being a franchisee, having kind of “crowdsourced” knowledge about what to carry in stock, how deep to go on certain titles, etc.

Looking great Vesper!

lol well true enough. Don’t listen to me. I just hope you do well!

(bet he has some metrics)

Yes certainly, however having been to several Goat’s, there is a fair amount of variance. One focused much more on video games, they had a couple of consoles set up for fighting games, and Pokémon CCG. Others Magic. Yet another more into miniatures and traditional board games. There is some common looking, but they seemed to be allowed to customize offerings to locale.

Here’s my day:

We are getting there! Games still arriving today.

Look at that inventory! Gamer porn.

Looks awesome. How sophisticated is the board game -> shelf position placement algorithm? Just get one of each box up on the shelf, sort by name, rough popularity, etc?

Yeah no kidding! Miss that from video game shopping years ago. Good thing you are far away or I could see myself spending way more than I should in there.

Indeed. I zoomed in to look closely.

Looks like an EB from the old days, and I LIKE it.

Good luck tomorrow!

WoW! That looks awesome!

Congrats and I wish you luck. That is super exciting!

Super excited for you. If I was anywhere within 1000 miles, I’d be there!

Hope it’s going amazingly well today @Vesper! Sending positive vibes your way. Hopefully you have a few minutes to snap some pics of the grand opening and post. Wish I lived in Denver and could attend.

I wish you lots of success @Vesper!

Good luck!! The first day of a whole new life!

Looks awesome! Best of luck on opening day!
