**** GameStop

[illadope]

so why the fukk u make the thread

CUZ aint you ever been to a GameStop when they have a "deal" going? Nothing makes sense in the damn store and its like the exec's are loser gamers that never had friends that think of stupid things to fukk with people when they come into their stores

so the other day(Saturday) I go to trade in a couple game so I can get MLB the Show 13. I was just gonna pay whatever the difference was. So I went in the Gamestop a few miles from my house, the guy told me I could get $33 for both games, but if I put it towards a pre-owned game I got 50% more trade in value. I was like "cool". And I had a $10 gift card....so for a used MLB 13, I came out owing only .33 cents. Great right?

But they didn't have a pre-owned MLB 13. So I asked him to check the other store about 10 miles up the highway.....dude was like "Well Why not just get it from our warehouse?" I was like whatever. That's fine it'll only take a few days I figured.

Meanwhile for the next 10-15 mins while processing my order dude annoyingly kept trying to get me to sign up for a "Power Up" card or some sh*t like that. I was like "thanks for the offer, but I'll pass.....I rarely buy games anymore" He kept on and on and on about how I'd somehow basically get the card for free or next to nothing.

Anyway, so I get an email Monday night saying my order has finally shipped and that it's scheduled to be here 4/12 (this Friday)....I looked at the tracking today, and it's been switched over to Post Office delivery and now the delivery date has been pushed back to 4/15 .....mind you their warehouse/corporate office is in Grapevine, which is only 30 minutes from my house.....and it's gonna take THAT long.

The store I wanted him to check initially has the game there used. I shoulda just went there to begin with. I woulda had my game that day when I wanted it. SMH

Also he told me there was no online pass for the game, but when I got back home I saw that there was. So now I'm gonna have to buy that too. I still saved money, but I'd rather have had the game that day and paid a little more for a new version

dude was right you should have signed up. You get an extra discount on the game you are buying and extra money from your trades, so you do basically get it for free. You also get a year subscription to game informer extra discounts through out the year(buy 2 get 1 free) and you get 10% off all used purchases.

I would not have goten any thing extra on the game then.

Basically it would be for future purchases on used games, of which i never buy. This is first one I've probably ever bought.

And I havent read a game book since EGM in the 90's breh.

Dude was just really annoying in how he tried to push it on me. That's what really made me turn it down

Gamestop 2 for 1 deals and preorder bonuses is where its at

 

[LezJepzin]

Ay man if you're ever out east its worth the visit. We had the Angry Video Game Nerd stop in a few time and they have tournaments and shyt. It's a nerd paradise, but that's okay we let the cool kids in too.

Just like Blockbuster used to have back in the 90s

But yeah, Game Stop. I get more money back for games at Dimple Records, A MUSIC STORE

You can get some pretty low prices on used stuff if you know how to play them.

If you buy many games here is how to do it if you buy used.

Plastic Jungle - 9% off on giftcards
Gamestop Membership - 10% off I think
Cheapassgamer or codes from retailmenot - 15-16% off
SAVER code for free shipping from the website
eBates if you want to go through the hassle for an additional 2% off

and hit them when they are running those B2G1 deals...Can get games dirt cheap with all those methods combined. It really pays off if you buy many games per year.

I NEVER go there for new games tho unless they have a huge deal going on.

If you step foot inside a GameStop without a plan that's going to have you coming out ahead (read, taking advantage of multiple offers at the same time with bonuses, etc.) then you're a fool and deserve to take your L. With that said, I don't ever go to GameStop, ever.

Yep, Gamestop can be your best friend if you work the deals/offers.

Gotta love the 50% extra trade in value or the buy 2 get 1 free on used games.

Don't blame Gamestop, blame yourself.
