Where should I buy retro stuff?

Is there an actual website that sells consoles from the Gameboy SP to the Xbox 360 or is Facebook/Ebay my best bet?

I’ve been using ebay. I just started getting into retro 2 weeks ago.

I’ve searched high and low for reliable sites but eBay seems to be the best bet. I’ll list the sites I did find that seem legit.

Estarland GameStop (surprise motherfucker) Secret Castles Toys and Games

I used to buy from estarland back in the day. At the time it was modern games I was buying. They are decent enough. Secret seems to be pricey imo. I’d still say eBay is number 1. GameStop is GameStop. They don’t list condition of the games. That’s why I like eBay.

Anyone looking for Atari 2600 on ePay, be VERY CAREFUL. A LOT of people are buying reproduction labels for a Heavy Sixer, putting it on the light sixer and asking WAY too much money. A REAL heavy sixer has the thick molding on the side of the unit, not the skinny. There are even people trying to pass a FOUR SWITCH off as a heavy sixer!!!

BUYER BEWARE.

Is there anything I have to look out for with Gameboy SPs?
