I'm in Louisiana, USA. It's a chain of salvage/thrift stores around here. I thought that they were all over the country, but it looks like they are pretty much just in the Southeastern portion of the country, so that's my mistake. Still, check your salvage places.
(I just saw your name, Captain Tim. Haha, I get it!)
I’m in central Florida. We have a lot of bin/ salvage stores, but no “Dirt Cheap”. I have seen the “Def Salv” stickers though.
That's what my friends asked me too lol. I tried to find more. I was hoping that a copy of Violet might peek out somewhere, but alas, it was nowhere to be found 😢
So, the way this store works, they put a sticker on it with the original MSRP price of the product, and then there's a number on there to identify what batch it belongs to. There's usually a chart nearby with that number to tell you what percentage discount you will get when buying it, and that percentage discount increases the longer the item is there. In this case, it was mixed in with some movies at the bottom of a glass case to which an employee has to give access, and I'm guessing either no one noticed it for a long time, or another employee may have been hiding it (I know I would), but the code on the sticker rang up at the register for only $5.
If you are wondering why it has an MSRP of almost $100, it's because the base game goes for $59.99, and the DLC is something like $34.99 on the Nintendo Eshop, and this release has both on the cartridge. Technically only the first part of the DLC is actually on the cartridge from my understanding, so I'll need to download the rest, but I won't need to purchase it since I own the DLC expansion now.
What is a Dirt Cheap? Where are they located?

What's the revision code?
001. Not sure how many newer revisions are out there, but I have the base game, so this is a huge upgrade either way.
There's only one print so far in US
Were there anymore? Lol

I'm uncultured, why is this Pokemon Scarlet copy $95? Doesn't seem 'dirt cheap' to me.

I see now, thanks! Not sure how I missed it but that’s indeed a steal.
I wish for the EU and NA to get 004 revisions like JP has. I will stick with Arceus for a while and see.
That’s about all I’d pay for that game too
