Today we’d like to introduce you to David Kaelin.
Alright – so let’s talk business. Tell us about Game Over Videogames – what should we know?
Game Over Videogames, Inc. is an independent chain of amazing retro-focused video game stores dedicated to the LOVE of classic video games, systems, and accessories from Atari to Xbox. At Game Over, we BUY, SELL, and TRADE all used video games, and in the process, we give gamers a top quality, one stop shop for all of their classic gaming needs, modern console games/consoles/accessories, plus we host awesome store events, tournaments, and the coolest in video game themed collectibles, t-shirts, plushies, soundtracks, and more. We buy and sell online nationwide from our warehouse in Texas, and we ship to customers anywhere across the entire USA and Canada!
Every store is staffed by great people who truly love video games, and we don’t have any pushy sales promotions or gimmicks that we’re going to beat you over the head with on every visit. We work hard every day to earn your business – we want to be your favorite video game store! Our retail stores are growing and expanding quickly, and we’ve been featured on CNN, Inc. Magazine, MTV, multiple local newspapers around the country, and numerous podcasts, YouTube channels, and social media posts. We have consistently won “Best Video Game Store” awards in Austin, San Antonio, Houston, and more!
The idea for Game over Videogames was originated in the summer of 2005 and the first store opened in Austin, TX on October 14, 2005. Our mission was simple — to create a HUGE oasis in the video game retail world where classic and vintage games would not only exist, but here they would be cleaned, merchandised, presented, and sold in a way that no other video game store has ever done. Old video games are not just a forgotten little shelf in the back at our stores — they fill our ENTIRE stores! We do realize that this concept is the 100% opposite of the way most video game stores operate, but we like it that way.
Is there a characteristic or quality that you feel is essential to success?
Hard work and customer support and loyalty….without those we wouldn’t be here today. Our employees are amazing people who truly love video games and work hard every day to provide an excellent store presentation and shopping experience for all of our customers. Customer support and loyalty is by far our most valuable tool in spreading the word of mouth about our cool video game stores. We sincerely appreciate every time a customer tells a friend, posts a pic or comment on social media, etc. to help spread the word about us.
