Fantastic experience: Been coming here since the early 2000s. I live an hr away from this store , and drive out of my way to come to this store specifically because of how great they've always been to me. This store has help me fund some amazing memories between my brother and I growing up, and now my lady and I. I plan on using this store to pick up some xmas stuff for a buddy of mine as well. The staff has always been super straight forward, knowledgeable, and kind. Seeing any low reviews is mind blowing and says more about the reviewers than it does the store. I'll be moving out of town next year and have thought several times how im going to miss this place. I'll be back every visit to the boro. 10/10 place. I love this store.

Fantastic experience: Easily one of the best game stores in the country. Helpful friendly staff, good prices, always have a good rotation of unique and in-demand items, and a nice 30 day warranty on their console/handheld items makes this game store amazing. Been coming here for years I love it

Jeffrey Rusnock Posted on Google 11 months ago

Negative experience: I came in with a few Assassin's Creed games, plus Star Wars Battlefront. I tried to trade them in at Play N' Trade, but they didn't want them, which is fair enough. The gentleman at GameTrader took a quick look at them and said he could offer me $3. So I asked, "$3 cash or store credit?" He said store credit, since they were so low in value. So I declined and said that I would take them elsewhere. Then, he condescendingly responded, "You probably won't get anything for them elsewhere." I replied that I'd probably just keep them and left. Overall, the guy just has a short man complex. Edit: My apologies, but I’m not sure who Jamie is. That said, constructive feedback is a natural part of running a business, and being open to it can go a long way in building positive customer relationships. Edit 2: It looks like the owner removed their response — a clear sign they’re not open to handling criticism. Edit 3: They re-added their reply. Not sure what this dude's deal is.

Game Trader
Game Trader

So basically we made an actual offer on some cheap titles when our competitor wouldn’t, yet he’s upset at us when informing him he’s likely not going to get much, if anything, anywhere else around.
By all means, keep the titles and shop around for yourself.

Easy to see this reviewer and his pal/alt account Jaime are review bombing us. Pretty lame


W B Posted on Google 1 year ago

Negative experience: Man had his interaction button stuck, would not leave me and my friend alone, while we were talking... Had to add his own input to our conversation... I didn't know I was in Fallout 76 in real life.. - Welcome Edit to state the facts here: Yeah, nothing like having a private convo and getting fact-checked by an employee who wasn’t even part of it. If you're going to jump into people’s convos, maybe do it without acting like a know-it-all next time pretty please and thank you, and clearly acting the same in your response to the review. <3

Fantastic experience: I knew as soon as I saw Lakitu on the 24-hour surveillance sign on the door that I was in for a good time. This store has by far the largest collection of video games that I have ever seen! Everything from the NES to the PS5 - you name it. Games aren't expensive here, either. The store workers were also very nice and helpful. This place is a must-visit for any video game fan in the Nashville area!

Fantastic experience: I went to the store today to trade in my old PS3 and Finch was able to help me, he is an awesome and very knowledgeable gentlemen. You can tell that he truly knows his stuff on anything related to games and consoles. He is very knowledgable about charging cables and also anything you need to know about anything else that could be related to games and consoles. After going there today for the first time, they now have gained a new customer for any of my game/console needs. They truly do take care of the customer and they want to make sure you leave happy and well informed. I will definitely be back soon to Game Trader!!!

Fantastic experience: This is one of my favorite, if not ALL time favorite game stores ive ever been too, the staff is incredible and they are extremely fair with prices as well as letting the customer even examine and test products in their own hands. This is a gem of a store that deserves praise. - Gavin Oh also, Finch knows EXACTLY what he is talking about, I trust him

A B. Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Friendly service and so many memories from older gaming systems. Definitely get the best trade in value from them.

Vinh Huỳnh Posted on Google 2 years ago

Positive experience: First of all the person who runs this place is amazing, friendly, loves gaming. But compare to the Madison Game Trader it is a downgrade. I feel like anything that doesn't have a lot of value (games, collectibles, systems) get to be over here. The madison one hold all of the valuable stuffs and this one is like their storage for unwanted stuff. Games here are mainly used games and hard to sell/unwanted games, same thing goes to collectibles and systems. Overall it's okay because the guy running this one is awesome.

Harminnie Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had one of the best visits today! Kaleena was a helpful and just so sweet. I had a bit of anxiety going into the shop myself since I normally ask my brother to get the games for me but I truly felt welcomed. 10/10 I recommend this job as long as you bump into Kaleena.

Betsy Baby Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: 100% the best place to get otome game fixings, AND they know what they're talking about. Kaleena, girlies, she gets it, knows exactly what to recommend, and honestly make me feel welcomed too! Other places like Game Stop for sure give the stink eye when it comes asking about visual novel games. But Game Trader? No, they make me feel like I belong as a girl gamer. SUPER LGTBQ+ friendly too, couldn't recommend a better place!

Meeko Rooks Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Kaleena had great customer service and personality I'll definitely be doing more business

Brian Applegett Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great service, and everyone I go, I find great games. The store is always amazing to be in. It is easy to find where each console’s games are. The consoles are displayed in a glass case which allows you too see them before buying. The pricing is great. It’s a wonderful experience, and I 100% recommend them if you like classic and new video games.

Anbusu Yashami Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Had a really nice experience in there today. The man behind the counter let me see the amibo I was buying up close to make sure I liked the paint job before buying. I also got some gatcha tokens and he made sure to let me know if I got dupes they'd replace them if they had the stock to. He also packaged my stuff really nicely. I'll make sure to come back soon.

Martin O'Reilly Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: What a wonderful store. New games? Sure! But their old games selection is out of this world. I haven't seen so many old games in good condition in many places. Be it PS1/2/3/4, earlier games for NES or SNES, Sega, even Atari games. They even have the consoles themselves at a decent price!! Definitely will return to furnish my wall of consoles

Brandon Corwin Posted on Google 2 years ago

Devin Duer Posted on Google 2 years ago

Henk Honk Posted on Google 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this place. I don't even live in Murfreesboro anymore, but any time I'm down there I make it a point to drop by. They have a wide selection of retro games, and if you own a Switch, you DEFINITELY want to come here. They have lots of indie games with limited physical releases, and lots of Japanese imports too (don't worry, the Switch is region-free). And they've got various other things, including vinyl video game OSTs and gachapon machines.

Courtney Young Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: The staff is great. They even checked the back for a game that I was looking for and they sold it to me. They finished cleaning it first but they hadn't even gotten to clean it yet and they let me buy it. They made it possible for me to find all the titles that I have been searching for.

Haley Brewington Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Went in looking for a way to play classic mario games and the guys helping us were SUPER helpful, kind, and patient! Definitely appreciated their help so much that I needed to come review it. They also had everything we needed in stock, was a quick trip in and out, definitely recommend coming here first when on a search for anything game related!

Dread Posted on Google 3 years ago

Negative experience: Great selection of games but seems like the guys behind the counter pick and choose who to be friendly with. I walked in and they were laughing it up with one guy. Any interaction with me and they look annoyed and give me side eye.

Brent Andrews Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've always had good experiences here. The employees are really helpful as well. Large selection of current and vintage games

Cam Hopkins Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Overall great place. Picked up a few great games for cheap because they didn’t have cases (fallout 4, Halo, and KOTOR 2) for my PS4 and OG Xbox. The staff here knows their stuff. It’s not overpriced and they have pretty much everything for retro consoles. The only thing I wish they had more of was OG Xbox accessories. I understand that they don’t make these parts anymore and sometimes can be hard to come by. The main reason I came by was to see if they had a component cable for the OG Xbox but they didn’t have any on the shelves for it which was kind of a bummer. However, I didn’t leave empty handed because they carried amazing games. There’s nothing more fulfilling than actually being able to pick up a game and see the back of the case.

Marie Christian Posted on Google 3 years ago

Sorry to hear about your trouble with the game. We give a warranty with all of our used product and can fix or replace anything you're having an issue with. Just bring it by the store whenever convenient, or if you're further away and can't make it in as easy just contact us and we'll send out a replacement or get you a refund. - Thanks

Daniel Funkhouser Posted on Google 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: We love this game store! We drive over half an hour to shop here. If you have any questions, they have the answers.

Patrics Cannon Posted on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: I got a game 4 days ago (New) and the kids preferred a different game so we tried to take it back to trade in. The game was $60 but trade in price after 4 days was $25. Less than half of what I paid for it. Someone did say we could get $5 extra if the case wasn't destroyed.(pictures attached). Hardly looks destroyed I felt like the guy exaggerated a bit. I get it, business is business, but it just sucks to see a used game with no case at all be sold for more than what is offered for a game I literally had for 4 days with a case that clearly isn't destroyed. However over all I truly do like this place because they are so helpful and the customer service from the store manager is top tier, this encounter just surprised me because in the past I have always had great trade ins and sells with them. Today just wasn't one of them LOL.

Game Trader
Game Trader

Hello Partrics, thanks for leaving the review with your recent experience. While like with most retailers, we can't offer a full return on software once it's been opened as we now have to sell it as used, I understand where you're coming from and agree we could've done better here.
If you still have the game, we can offer you $40 in trade towards anything in the store, or we can let you pick out any other pre-owned Switch title under $49 at no additional cost.
If you don't own the game anymore, feel free to reach out to us and we'll see what we can do to make it up on your next visit. Thanks again.


T Munson Posted on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: Great selection of games you can't find at other stores anymore. Very helpful staff. They wouldn't buy my old Playstation because the sticker was removed. Those "warranty void if removed" stickers are meaningless and ILLEGAL(Google it) on US products, but apparently Game Trader doesn't know or doesn't care. The consumer has every right to remove any stickers. Fyi.

Game Trader
Game Trader

Thanks for the review. You can remove any sticker you like just as we can refuse to take in anything we don’t want to buy. Usually when warranty stickers have been removed there’s already been a problem with the system and it’s not worth the time and hassle for us to open it up and check that it’s been repaired correctly with original parts. We have to sell it while offering an extended product guarantee that it works and there is a lot of added risk for us once the system has been tampered with. With 30+ years in the business, we’ve experienced it both ways and we see far less defective returns as it is now.

Outkast Theory Posted on Google 3 years ago

Positive experience: Game Trader has a lot of retro and current gen games and systems. They even have anime figures, Funko pops, and plushies. It's a small store but they use their space very well. They have a great selection of games, I would recommend going here just to check them out and see what they got!

Fantastic experience: Loved this place and the vibe. Lots of options from retro games to brand new. Aftermarket peripherals and traded in Knick knacks like cases for DS’s. I traded in some stuff, and I felt like I made the best choice in where to go. Things that gamers know matter such as original box/cases and sets add value. Keep in mind all places that buy things have to turn around and make a profit so don’t be stingy. Overall I had a great visit, and will make the time to come more often! Finch was super nice like made an already 10/10 experience a 20/10 :)

Melissa Morris Posted on Google 4 years ago

Negative experience: Bought 4 supposed to be "brand new" PS3 Sony controllers for over $200. Got home 1 didn't work at all. Got 1 month use out of the other 3. Store has tried to get over several times. I'm no longer returning.

Game Trader
Game Trader

Hello Melissa, the only “brand new” controllers that have existed for the PS3 for many years now are 3rd party and typically run $14-$29. At most, we do sell Official Sony refurbished controllers for $39, but still not over the $200 total you’re claiming.

Rather than make contact, this is the first we’re hearing of any problem you’ve encountered with your purchase. We don’t make the controllers, but we do warranty them to work as intended.

Bring them in with receipt (or even a bank/credit statement) that shows you purchased these from us in the last three months and we’ll replace them no problem so long as there’s no visible physical damage that caused them not to function.

Thanks

Madison Tucker Posted on Google 4 years ago

Positive experience: I like this place, but its always a hit or miss. I do recommend going right when they open to make sure none of the good stuff gets snatched first. The people behind the counter are always so friendly. Besides games/consoles they have gatcha machines, funkos, figures, plushies, and vinyl. Its a pretty cool place all n all.

Game Trader
Game Trader

Thanks for the review, Madison! Being a store that specializes in pre-owned items from all generations, it is always random when people will bring stuff in on trade and pickings have been a lot more scarce the last couple of years with so many people buying the good stuff right away from being stuck at home, but we've been seeing a huge influx of trade-ins again at both locations over the last couple months so be sure to check in regularly or follow us online to see some of the latest items in the shop.

Negative experience: Don't do credit here, if you lose your slip they won't help you even though they have the other half ! I lost money. Update your service so it helps the customer. So it ok for me to lose money an him to gain it. Also maybe you should tell people that if you don't have ticket we don't help you before sugusting store credit ! My daughters money for getting a new game, shame on you for now resolving !

Hello Sarah, yes, the credit slips we give are like cash to spend in our stores and to use it you have to bring it in. Losing it is the same as misplacing real money or even a gift card from practically any other business. It’s your responsibility to keep up with it.

As for not resolving, my employee was actively trying to help you in this situation and asking questions to narrow down the window of when the slip was issued but you hung up on him.

Feel free to call again today and talk to our store Manager, Bryan, to resolve the matter.
