It was a novelty to have a just video game store ten years ago, but with the proliferation of GameStop/EB Games now, plus video games available for cheaper at Wal-Mart/Future Shop/Best Buy, I don't see why anyone would actually shop there.

The store is just a storage area for them, really. I'm positive they do most of their business online. All the storefront business is gravy. That would be my guess.
And yeah, look online at those PSX games. That's what a lot of the older stuff sells for. It doesn't have to be all people from Calgary doing the buying, but even if it was I would guess they would do alright. I started collecting myself recently, and I found I went their every once in awhile. Specifically I found them good for buying extra parts for the garage sale bargains I found.
