We got interviewed yesterday and were so happy to see that Symbiote Collectibles was featured on the Front page of the Reading Eagle News Paper today! Read the article by clicking the link below.  

​In an unprecedented move locally owned retailer buys 3 Berks County franchises amidst Gamestops financial struggles. Owner of Symbiote Collectibles Max H. was interviewed by RealNewsUSA and quoted saying "I was on the fence about taking such a large financial risk in the struggling company but when they laid out an option to acquire the stores only in my local area for a reduced cost it was a no brainier." Very rarely do you see such an unorthodox deal with a local indecently owned retailer  taking over some of the local branches of such a large company. "This is definitely a very unprecedented opportunity that I have been very exited to announce. It has been very hard to keep such a big announcement a secret but I know I had to wait for this special day to release this information to the press." said Max H on 4/1/2020. The sales price of this deal was also very unique Symbiote Collectibles owner manged to trade in about 15 dozen EA Madden titles, 3 PS2 systems, 8 Ipads, $435 in trade in credit from Pro rewards and $1,500 cash for the 3 failing Gamestop locations. The last thing RealNewsUSA wants to say on the record is that this is an April Fools day joke and that all the above information is completely false Symbiote Collectibles has no affiliation with Gamestop and all information has been fabricated as a April fools day joke. ​
