A bit of backround J & J's in Englishtown is only open weekends, the one in Columbus is open 7 days.
2 weeks ago a cutomer came in to J & J's in Englishtown and placed a request for an Atari Jaguar with Kev, later that week he got one from his store in Columbus. Kev called the guy up and said it was ready for pickup at J & J's on saturday. Last saturday the guy was a no show, sunday too, but that didn't stop some other guy from trying to buy it. I was on break watching Vinny and this guy talk. I should point out that the request slip is taped to the box.
Vinny-coworker
Idiot-duh
Idiot: Atari Jaguar huh, how much?
Vinny: $120. But it's not for sale, we're holding it for someone.
Idiot: So I can't buy it?
Vinny: We have a policy, if you place an order we hold it for you for 2 weeks. If you don't show and don't call or email us telling us why you can't make it, or ask us to extend the holding period it goes up for sale as a regular sale item.
Idiot: So you can't sell it to me?
Vinny: No sir, his time isn't up yet. If he doesn't show up tomorrow it goes up as a regular item next week.
Idiot: Can't I just come in 5 minutes before you close then?
Vinny: No sir, you cannot.
Idiot: Does the price go down next week then?
Vinny: No sir, it does not. Only if the game console is out of the box will we lower the price.
Idiot: Can you maybe lose the box, or throw it away or something?
Vinny: No.
Idiot: Fine! I'll go to Gamestop, I'll get one there for cheaper!
