jhd Posted June 30, 2011 Share Posted June 30, 2011 In about a month, I will be visiting Bangor and Portland, Maine. Can anybody recommend any decent game stores in either city? I won't have the time to sift through thrift shops and pawn shops, but I'd like to find someplace other than Gamestop/EB Games. I've checked online, but nothing comes up. I'm mostly interested in original PlayStation and PS 2 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toptenmaterial Posted July 2, 2011 Share Posted July 2, 2011 I live in Saco, about 18 miles south of Portland. In Portland you have Strange Maine which has a decent collection- you can get VCS commons for 50 cents. There is also Bull Moose, they have a huge selection of PS2 but anything earlier is all sports. They typically have an excellent selection of GB/GBC/GBA carts. Bull Moose also has locations in Scarborough (not sure of spelling) and Sanford. In Biddeford there is music plus (they'll have PS1 and PS2 stuff for sure, also hardware) and near it is Buried Treasures where you can sometimes find A8 and Commodore Stuff. You can also do trades with me, though I don't have much Sony stuff. Good luck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mckafka99 Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 (edited) There is an indoor Flea Market in Scarborough, ME that has a bunch of used video games, although not 'real-old-school-stuff'. Their Facebook page is here: http://www.facebook.com/pages/Southern-Maine-Indoor-Flea-Market/159155227430889 There is also the Cascade Flea Market which is on Rt 1 in Saco. There is one booth there which carries quite a bit used video game items, but again, it's usually not the old school stuff. Admittedly though, in the last 3 years, I have picked up a decent 4-switch 2600, quite a few 2600 carts (not the best shape but working)and also found my Sears Video Pinball unit there as well. At another booth, I also found an original xbox for $20. Edited July 8, 2011 by mckafka99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Major_Tom_coming_home Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Thought I'd revive this old thread to plug 3D games in Farmington and Skowhegan. I got some good VCS deals and they worked with me a little on price in the Skowhegan store. I picked up Laser Gates, Star Wars Arcade, and a few other games.
