How can you tell when a game is not new? How do you nkow when they're using store seals? We should write a letter to Gamestop's corporate office. Im not having this.

the original plastic under the main plastic seal isnt broken...back in the day I was a store manager for this company ...I was an assistant manager for EB games then when gamestop bought them I got my own store so I know everything that wack company does.

walked out and never came back

Breh they tried to pull that shyt on me one time. Im paying 59.99 for a brand new game and this nikka digging through a drawer of loose discs looking for my shyt:dahell:.

Then one time I got a brand new game and the bytch pulled the plastic off cracked my shyt open and looked at the disc. :dahell:

I stopped going there awhile ago because it seems like most of their employees have attitude problems and act @ssholey like questions are an inconvenience to them. I've noticed this at too many of thier stores and I stopped giving them my business early last gen :pacspit:
The ones here are usually the opposite

They're too friendly and won't stop asking questions.Them and Radio Shack got the most annoying employees IMO

yeah thats what they called gutted games..the new ones are in a white sleeve the used are in a yellow sleeve behind the register...these are from the display boxes on wall and cashwraps when you walk in..if you buy a new game they should pull from a white sleeve..

Yo I've always wondered...

I know people that have worked there and a lot of Gamestop managers will let employees open a game and bring it home.

When they bring it back in, they still sell it as new and just re-seal it with a clear plastic sticker.

The fact that this sticker is even an item in stock means Gamestop is aware of the practice.

Is this illegal? Grounds for a class action lawsuit? Why would they think they can break the seal and re-sell it when their own policies of return won't let you break the seal?

This is fukked up :lupe:


PS I got 38.50 from Wal Mart for AC4 on trade in, phluck GameStop :smugdraper:
Of course it's illegal. It's fraud.

man people call corporate 24/7 good luck trying to get anywhere with that to be honest...these people have so much pull in the videogame industry, they have more pull over walmart when it comes to games..especially when they bought there major competitor EB games
