http://www.retro-games.co.uk/ What do you think about this site? As I am looking into buying it. The main thing is the name but the site its self is important.
You're going to buy this site!!! IMHO go for it, this site has been in my bookmarks longer than I can remember and is a very solid website, shoddy in design but strong in content and knowledge. I've even bought a few things from them in the past, and they're usually advertised in a few of the retro based magazines in the UK.
I`ve visited the site many times in the past, depends on the price of course, but it already gets steady traffic which you well know.
You definitely have to buy it, it's already known for lots of people and with some manteniance it will be even better!
It does look like crap, though. Keep the name, but rip the site out. EDIT: Over £500 with no stock, AND a giant advert saying it's being sold off and is shut down, in a marketplace already full of identical shops? I'd give it a miss personally, unless you have sufficient stock to refuel and be able to get it up within a month or two (else you'll start losing customers). However, if you're running it, I'm sure that people round here will keep you afloat!
I don't like hyphened names as it's too easy to forget to type it. Saying www.retrogames.co.uk is easier then www.retro(dash)games.co.uk So miss it and people go to http://www.retrogames.co.uk/ instead...
