Our Retail Philosophy
We believe retail game stores are crucial. They’re places for community, safety, camaraderie, and commerce.
Our guiding philosophy is mutual benefit. Here are the four main ways we express it to retail partners:
- Open Lines of Communication: We communicate with you about our plans. We include concrete details like street dates and key selling points. We listen to your feedback. We incorporate your ideas into our future plans.
- Flexible Pricing: We avoid printing or suggesting retail prices. We encourage every stores to sell our games at the right price for them.
- Net Pricing at Competitive and Sustainable Levels: Each of the games we offer under these terms is net priced. You’ll find most of our net prices to be roughly 50% of the prices we usually charge when we sell those games to gamers ourselves.
- Publish Games with Value: Our business is built around publishing games that gamers are excited to pay a fair price for. We have sales from time to time, just like you do. But our model is not about deep discounts any more than yours should be.
Opening a Wholesale Purchasing Account
We welcome game stores with brick-and-mortar storefronts, or who sell games at conventions, to apply for a wholesale purchasing account. You can fill out the form below or email an inquiry to the address below.
Apply for a Wholesale Account ↗️
We reserve the sole authority to extend wholesale accounts. We decide based on criteria of our choosing, which we reserve the right to change at any time.
We do not offer wholesale accounts to online-only businesses. We give a skeptical side-eye to “online-mostly” businesses who operate a dusty public selling-closet in front and a high-volume webstore in back.
Wholesale Account Terms
By placing an order under wholesale terms, you agree to abide by our terms of resale.
Terms of Resale
- Sell to Gamers: You’ll offer our games for sale to people who’ll play them, not to resellers.
- No Credit: You'll pay our Net Prices, plus shipping charges, at the time of your order.
- Minimum Advertised Pricing: You agree not to advertise our games below their Minimum Advertised Prices (“MAP”), which we publish for each game along with its Net Price.
- Online Sales: If you offer our games for sale in new condition on Amazon, eBay, Target.com, or Walmart.com, you agree that your offerings there will be part of a mixed physical and digital sales presence that supports the long-term health of both, and that your online sales are not a major portion of your business's revenue.
- Dealing With Overstock: You agree that before you offer any substantial quantity of our games for sale below MAP — whether in person or online — you’ll reach out to us. If you’re overstocked, or just can’t move something, we’d rather have a conversation about buying it back with credit toward future orders than see it unloaded at deep discounts.
Minimum Orders & Shipping Charges
- Minimum Order: The minimum wholesale order is six units.
- Flat Shipping: If you meet the minimum order, the shipping charge is $9 for the entire order, to any destination in the continental United States.
