In my experience, shops that don't price items are shops that overprice items. Generally if I don't see price tags, I don't bother looking any further.

The moment I stopped retro game collecting is the moment I took a game to the counter and the guy pulled up ebay on his phone to check the current prices. My guy I could have just bought it on ebay if that was my goal.
That really ruins the fun of hunting down a good deal. I sure miss the days when someone at a flea market had a box of NES games for $3 each, and you could sift through and find stuff you don’t have yet. Those days are long, long gone.
I'm surprised to hear that's a thing, they're all priced at the shops near me
That said, when doing so use stickers that can be removed easily.
Nothing worse than paper price stickers that rip apart or leave a sticky residue.
Bonus if they're on a card box like pre-GameCube Nintendo, or 90s big box computer games, where they actually damage the underlying game box >.<
