If you want to build a business on that idea, we'll be happy to help you out. We know a couple of the distribution companies that drop ship and we'll give you a fee discount to get more new games on the site. :)

[BTW, we're not partnered with Best Buy at all. It's just that blue is a default color in PowerPoint. :) ]

Actually it was the choice of Best Buy, the choice of blue, and the use of Best Buy (and Amazon) as alternative places to purchase games when I was checking out your site.

Regarding you post, I would like to look into this. Would you email me the names of those distribution companies and how can I contact you? (I glanced at your site, but didn't see your email.)

Using "Best Buy" as shorthand for "big retail chain which sells games, but, no no, I'm not talking about GameStop here, no, ugh, I'm talking about everyone EXCEPT gamestop in this bit -- you know, the stores like Best Buy and that sort of thing," works just fine.

Yes, I just like the local Fry's more than Best Buy. Bias, that's really all it is.
