I've never been to a gaming market before. I wonder what the prices are like and whether there's likely to be any bargains?

If it's like a record fayre then probably not :lol: , although I'm only down the road from it so may give it a go

I doubt it :(

Like 20 years ago there was as nobody wanted the stuff.

There used to be a gaming market held in Manchester at "Bowlers Exhibition Centre" most weekends since 1992. However declining PC sales plus the pandemic killed it off. It was mainly modern stuff (PC components) at trade prices but there was always one or two retro stalls.

No bargains (compared to boot sale prices or small ads) on the retro stalls (even in the 90s) unless they had something mislabelled or they didn't know what it was.
