When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $684/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it invoice management, a app for jobs, or a invoicing system — most retro game resellers in Ann Arbor stitch together QuickBooks, Wave, Square plus other subscriptions. That's $684/year in tool subscriptions. Across five years at today's prices, the total damage is $3,420.
Nexa gives you the ability to exit the subscription trap. Your CRM, invoice management, calendar tool, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — combined into one app. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No duct-tape integrations. No integration tax. It's a one-time purchase — cut costs the moment you switch. For retro game resellers in Ann Arbor weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
You bought a lot of 60 SNES games for $400 on Facebook Marketplace. Five are worth $40-$100 each, ten are $10-$20, and the rest are $2-5 sports games. You need to test every cartridge, clean the contacts, photograph, and list each one. The valuable games go on eBay, the mid-range on your Mercari, and the commons go in a $5 bin at the flea market. Tracking cost basis from the lot to individual sales is a nightmare.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

Open on Reddit →We build a retro game reseller's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a retro game reseller — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
