Highstreet entertainment retailer HMV is to exit the pre-owned video games market, it has been confirmed to VideoGamer.com after first being reported by Frugal Gaming.
All pre-owned video games will be marked for clearance beginning today with a discount of 70 per cent on all stock.
The discounts should see used PS4 and Xbox One titles being sold for under £15 – if you can find stock.
HMV’s Re/Play pre-owned offering began back in October 2008 at 160 stores.
At the time, the retailer’s head of games Tim Ellis commented: “HMV Re/Play further underlines HMV’s growing credentials as a games specialist, and enhances the credibility of our games offer through extended range and by providing a strong value proposition to our customers.”
“This represents a great deal for our customers, as well as for our industry, as we believe it will help to drive footfall and stimulate increased sales of new games releases and hardware, as well as other entertainment products available from HMV.”
