Title: Movie Gallery, Hollywood Video, Game Crazy GOING OUT OF BUSINESS
Post by: CheezeFlixz on May 23, 2010, 02:50:16 PM
FYI

All Movie Gallery's, Hollywood Video's, and Game Crazy's are going out of business - currently prices are marked down 20% (Blu-Ray's $20) frankly I think they are still to high on a number of title groups like Gallery's selection at $8 but the price will continue to drop as all stores must be closed and inventory gone by the end of August is what I'm told - with the exception of HTF titles and other oddities I'm waiting until they are at 50% off or better. I did get an original release of "1984" for $8.00 I'd call that a bargain.

Keep your eyes open Blockbuster will be next their stock is trading at $0.35 share  Movie Galley was trading at $0.03 share

I've noticed most of the Hollywood Video stores in my town go out of business.  I got a lot of great deals from these going out of businesses.  C.H.U.D. for 5 bucks?  What a deal!

Also, haven't seen you around here in a while CheezeFlixz.  People have been worried about you!

Not surprised.  They've closed all of the above stores here in the Spokane area.

Yep.. all the ones in my neck of the woods are going/have gone under.  I can pick up some cheap DVDs or games.. looking to hopefully get Ninja Scroll soon for $5 or so.

The Oregonian had a big picture on the cover one day, of the store down the street from me!

Yeah, I don't think there are any Hollywood Videos left in St. Louis.  Last few went out a year or two ago.
