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, praise and/or criticism:
“What can everyone do?—Praise and blame. This is human virtue, this is human madness.”
—Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)
“Our manners have been corrupted by communication with the saints. Our hymn-books resound with a melodious cursing of God and enduring Him forever. One would say that even the prophets and redeemers had rather consoled the fears than confirmed the hopes of man. There is nowhere recorded a simple and irrepressible satisfaction with the gift of life, any memorable praise of God.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“I hold with the old-fashioned criticism that Browning is not really a poet, that he has all the gifts but the one needful and the pearls without the string; rather one should say raw nuggets and rough diamonds.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
