Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the team at AFKxp have announced that the will host a Game Swap Meet in September instead of July.

SEPT Video Game Swap will take place on September 20th from 11AM to 4Pm. Gamers are welcomed for the chance to participate in the swap meet or just hang out. There will be a good number of vendors selling new and classic games at an affordable price. There is also an ATM inside LvL UP (if you lack the cash).

Any dealers or vendors who want to participate must pay $40 in advance as tables are limited. Dealers must arrive at 10am to set up and half of the merchandise must be game related. Failure to meet these requirements will result in the spot being forfeited.

It should be noted that guests are not allowed to bring outside food. Also smoking of any kind is not permitted. Guest should be aware that the Campbell Farmers Market also takes place from 9am to 1pm.

This announcement comes after the three previous events had to be cancelled. All were in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The first was set to take place in March but was cancelled due to concerns over public safety. The second one was set to take place in April but was cancelled due to the shelter in place.

AFKxp Tech+Games could only be described as the heart of the gaming community in the South Bay. They are located on the second floor of LVL Up and share a space with The Retro Fix.
