Praise and Criticism
Slackers CDs and Games won an award for best used CD store in 2006 from the Riverfront Times. The Times cited its collection of vinyl records and independent and rare music CDs as the basis for the award.
Since the store buys video games from all consoles, it is known for its collection of classic titles. However, they do not require the box or manual for catridge based games.
The store is also known for giving more credit for trade-ins than its competitors. In 2005, Vox Magazine had the same four games (Halo, Metal Gear Solid 3, NHL 2004, and Madden NFL 2005) priced at EB Games, Game Crazy, and Slackers CDs and Games, with the trade-in values being $16.50, $26.82, and $45 respectively.

Famous quotes containing the words praise and/or criticism:
“Come gather round me players all:
Come praise Nineteen-Sixteen,
Those from the pit and gallery
Or from the painted scene
That fought in the Post Office
Or round the City Hall....”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“The greater the decrease in the social significance of an art form, the sharper the distinction between criticism and enjoyment by the public. The conventional is uncritically enjoyed, and the truly new is criticized with aversion.”
