Video Game Trader

Great business. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, fair return value on trade-ins, excellent stock.

Exists in a nebulous internet blackout zone, but I think that's more a mall problem, not a store problem

I love this place, I don't usually buy much here but to look is a lot of fun. I rate it 3 stars though because I wasn't a fan of their return policy. My fiance bought Turtles in Time November 29th as a Christmas gift not realising I owned it. I went to exchange it assuming I couldn't refund it but there would be a extension on the return policy for Christmas. Turns out they don't accept exchanges 21 days after purchase and from the $65 we paid, they would take is as a trade-in for $35.

It's not the worst service but it puts a bit of a damper on the gift. Still love the shop.

You will NOT find a better video game store in this city, or quite frankly anywhere nearby. VGT does a tremendous job organizing and maintains a large inventory, while offering reasonable trade in and purchase prices!

On top of that, you won’t find a better set of staff then here at VGT! I have been in 4 or 5 times over the last few months, with a new person helping me each time, and the staff are always friendly and helpful.

Go check it out, you will not be disappointed!

Video game trader is just like any other store if it's kind, there is nothing special, different, or ground breaking about this or any other store like it.

Easily my favorite shop in Calgary.beautiful storefront, knowledgeable staff, and the inventory is changing constantly so there’s always a reason to stop by

These guys have a freaking huge library of games. If you can think it, they probably have it. Great team of people who are knowledgeable and friendly. You can trade in your old games, consoles, and pretty anything else they may want. They have a point system for recurring customers. Parking is quite good since it is at a smaller mall location. They have their own outside entrance as well as a mall entrance. Check these guys out and their inventory on the website.

Like so totally retro.retro is so fetch and yes fetch is so totally gonna happen so shut up regina

I'm someone who still really values having physical copies of games, be it new or old. This is the place I always go. Their selection is great, and I always love looking at all the consoles and merch they have on display. Staff is very friendly and knowledgeable, always a great experience stopping in

Not the best, it's better to look online for buying a used games, they pay you nothing for your game and they sale their used games a price like new games.my son and I stopped going there it's not really worth the drive.

Best game store in the country bar none. I will troll anyone who says otherwise. That means you Cameltoe Turnballs

What a great store. Lots of great Collectibles! Friendly staff. Awesome experience all together!

A pawn shop that specializes in video games would be the best way to describe VGT.
Great destination for collectors wanting very specific rarities.
Felt a bit rushed when speaking with them, despite it not being very busy.

Love to support local businesses! VGT has always been a fun stop when we're itching to add something new (or old) to our game collections!

Great staff super helpful and patient with my nephew and all his questions his non gamer aunt can't help with lol

The best video game store in Calgary! Big selection of everything gaming. They're especially awesome at stocking old/retro/rare games. The owners are extremely awesome and can help you out with whatever you need. Make sure to visit them at Calgary Expo too each year (they always have a booth).

This place is awesome and prices are fair. Better than some private listing of games. Update: I've come back quite a few times now and have to say the staff are awesome and helpful!

I love Video Game Trader. They are located in Bonavista, in The Promenade (the strip mall in the area).

They have a very large selection of pre-owned (and, in some cases, new) Blu rays, DVDs, and all sorts of video games.

They have a ton of games to select for almost every gaming console you could imagine. From NES & SNES to PS1/PS2, to Gameboy, Sega, Wii, and N64. They also have a good selection of games, consoles, and accessories for the newest generation of consoles.

You can also bring in used movies, games, consoles, controllers, etc.and receive a very appropriate amount of in-store credit, or slightly less if you're only looking for cash.

Would 100% recommend for any gamer or movie enthusiasts.

This is one of the best shops I have been to, with great staff, awesome games and cool collectables.

Thank you for putting on such an awesome event with Todd McFarlane, this was a great experience and when im in Calgary again this will be my first stop.

Terrible service.a total waste of my time.brutal to say the least. Do not phone.as they say bring the games in. And than tell you they are not interested.scam artists

Very friendly staff I have relatives who live in Calgary and I will recommend it to them I'm currently looking for items I will happily check their website from time to time and get it on credit

This latest location of VGT is awesome, it is far from my home but it is worth the trip again and again. It was great watching my 6 year old's face light up with the selection of games they have. I was taken back in time with fond memories of the Commodore Vic 20, the Gemini, the Atari 600xl and the games. The place is amazing. The people there are passionate about the products and this translates to great customer service. Keep it up and game on!

Go out of my way to come here over chain stores, always worth it. Fantastic trade-in credit and amazing customer service highly reccomend coming here for anything video game related
