A few years ago, Game Gavel was one of the biggest gaming marketplaces on the net. For over ten years we sold everything from old console gaming gear to titles that you couldn’t find anywhere else. You can think of us as eBay for old school gaming. We also sold some of the most significant gaming collections around, including a few for over a million dollars.
But as demand for retro gaming products dwindled we found fewer and fewer customers looking to buy or sell gaming products.
Sadly (or perhaps luckily?), we weren’t the only website who found itself in a similar position. As gaming technology started going forward at light speed, many website owners decided to retire or sell their domains. However, some, like us, decided to transition together with the times.
One such website was GforGames.com, owned by the cofounder of Game Gavel, Khaled Shaalan. As Khaled’s academic career had him to busy to make the transition by himself, he was happy to become a part of our team.
Thus, we decided to combine GforGames and Game Gavel into a brand new resource hub for gamers worldwide.
Where We Are Now
At the end of 2018, we decided it was time to make a change. With over two decades of experience in gaming, our team knew that we could never build our games, but we could help gamers all around the world.
And we decided that we could.
Years of playing video games at almost-professional levels, writing about games, and writing about various gaming products, got us thinking whether we should start reviewing current products and modern video games. This way, we could help hundreds of thousands of those who have less experience than us, make fewer mistakes when deciding to buy a gaming-related product.
So, we started from scratch intending to build a friendly home for all those who need help buying a video game or getting better at some of them. In our various product reviews and guides, you won’t just learn what the most valuable piece of gear to purchase is, you will also find out how to maintain that gear and how to use its specifics to gain an advantage over your opponents.
The best part – all our reviews are written by writers who love gaming.
The Future
When we decided to start from the beginning, we were completely aware that we would lose most of what we had built in the past. However, that didn’t stop us from having faith in our mission. In the not-so-distant future, we aim to become the #1 place for gamers all over the world to get their info from.
Aside from the reviews on the particular gaming products and game-guides, you will also be able to find the latest and greatest gaming news.
In the future, look out for Game Gavel at all major gaming events and conferences.
We are always looking for new employees, and we are constantly growing bigger. So, if you think you have what it takes, don’t hesitate to get in touch with us.
