About the archive
Levelupoz began in 2019 with a few crates of cartridges, a borrowed soldering iron and a lounge room in Downer. We still run it like a small museum run by fans: every exhibit is played, catalogued and given a number before it leaves the building.
- 01
Games are meant to be played.
We sell working exhibits, not sealed trophies. Every cartridge, disc and console is tested on real hardware before it gets a number.
- 02
Condition is a fact, not a sales pitch.
Scuffs, sun-faded labels and missing manuals are written down plainly. Our grading scale is public and we stick to it.
- 03
Every copy has a history.
Old price stickers, a name written on a manual, an Australian classification label — we keep those details, because they are part of the story.
- 04
Repair before replace.
Tired consoles get cleaned, re-capped and brought back to life on our bench instead of heading to landfill.
- 05
Collecting should be for everyone.
Next to the glass cabinet there is always a pocket-money shelf. A great collection can start with a ten-dollar cartridge.
- 06
Keepers answer the phone.
Ask us anything. The people packing your order are the same people who played it last week.
