>>376614404
although nothing special i have some OC:

went to a gamestop for a PSP game and found a copy of Prinny 2 listed as "new" for $15.

i ask if they still have a shrink wrapped copy since the display was in BAD shape with a ton of filth on it and even had the bottom crushed with a good 2-3 inch chunk of plastic missing off the bottom.

they didn't and tried to sell me the fucked copy for which i refused since they wanted to charge me the "new" price insisting the game itself is new even though the case looks like a dumpster find.

i suggested the used game price (likely would of been $6.99 like prinny 1) due to the poor condition which they refused so i left.

>Order online
>Every game that I purchased as new is opened
>Email them
>They never respond
Why are consumer rights so void in America? What they are doing is fraud.

>>376614923
there's only a 10% difference

they should have just given you another case and exchanged the cover art, there's usually a bunch in the back.

>>376615039
the cover and manual was ratty so a case swap wouldn't of helped.

>>376614576
>and spend the extra buck insuring the game

Did you break the game? Have you ever broken a game? If you're breaking less than 1 out of every 50 games you're better off keeping the dollar and buying new games yourself when you break them

Oh well, at least Doom 3 was really good, and it's backward compatible now, but seriously, if you're not digital purchasing your games in 2017, you're pretty dumb.

>>376616898
It's nice that the Switch shortages are finally finishing. They've been up and readily available on Amazon.ca for the last 4-5 hours with today's restock.

>>376615114
Not him but I let my nieces and nephews play and borrow my games all the time. They're usually pretty good with not scratching them but for that 1in50 chance, I'd rather spend the extra buck to cover 20-60 bucks if anything does happen.

>Letting kids use your games

I'm not autistic enough to want to keep everything to myself in mint condition.

Im terrified everytime I go into that gamestop, I never want to see that fuck in there. Especially since almost all my casual attire is movie or subtle vidya stuff, would just give him another excuse to talk to me.

Hey fuck you, I was just trying to be friendly and get some more people on my 3DS and Switch friendlist and you seemed like you need friends.

>>376614404
Gamestop is dying isn't it? Last time I went into one it seemed to be selling mostly t shirts and toys for twice as much as it would cost to buy them on the internet. It was like a hot topic for people who were even more retarded than your average hot topic customer.

>>376617617
lol I go to some of the mom and pop game stores around here, and there's almost ALWAYS some super autistic brony looking at DS games.

I don't get it.

Yeah sure its because of GS policy, LOL.

>>376614404
My horror story is that they kept trying to sell me 'brand new' games without cellophane. How am I suppose to know it's not used? They even put an obnoxious sticker on the case that's impossible to remove.

I'm pretty sure they were trying to sell used games as brand new.

>>376618108
Its a good hat though!

>>376617892
Never go to GS, Best Buy is superior in every what if you have that GCU, $30 for 2 years and get 20% off every new vidya, I went halfies with a friend and my half almost paid itself when copped P5.

>>376618178
They're new. Usually the last copy on hand is the display one. They remove the disk from the case, slap a sticker on it, and put it up for display.

From my experience, only autistic people care about it being sealed in plastic.

THEY TOLD US TO BASICALLY THROW A GRAND COLLECTIBLE RE OPENING WITH OUR OWN MONEY. FUCK YOU GAMESTOP CORPORATE.

They can't force you but they can certainly let you quit if you don't like it.
If you work at a game store, chances are you need the money.

Gamestop will straight up deny you the sell of a game on the day of release if you didn't preorder, doesn't matter if they have more copies than preorders just so you preorder next time.

I'm surprised no retailer has ever come out with an ad campaign/slogan basically saying "our employees will leave you the FUCK alone unless you ask them for help." I feel like that'd probably attract a decent amount of customers.

Game retailers are dying in general because people are finding it easier and cheaper just to get it from places like Amazon.

>>376628290
Pretty much any game made for this gen of consoles could have been done on last gen hardware. This whole "power" thing is a scam.

I like to buy games, fart in the cases and then return them to female employees.

Not him but if I remember right CeX doesn't offer returns just like that
There has to be something wrong with the game and they try and repair the game. If all else fails then you get your refund.

I don't remember if they still do that though.

>>376629552
It doesn't matter what shitty policies the company has, in most first world countries you are entitled to a refund as long as it is not damaged.

>>376619608
depends on the store and the game. When Ni-Oh came out, we had no extra copies. 6 copies showed up, all 6 were reserved. Prey, on the other hand we had a shitload of extras, so we offloaded a good chunk of them on launch day

I don't hang things on the toilet. It just when your done taking a shit you set down whatever you were wasting time with, then wipe your ass, flush the toilet and wash your hands.
The most convenient place to set something down momentarily is on the ledge by the sink. So when I go to wash my hands sometimes I bump whatever I've set down. I've had near misses with electronics, so the easy answer is don't bring electronics into the shitter. Plastic toys are fucking fine

I went in there once and asked for the MGS collection on vita. Without missing a beat (or checking the inventory) the guy behind the counter told me it was non existent. The manager heard this, came over, and just looked it up on the computer, told him it did exist, and told me they were out of stock.

Except for the fact that you're doing it in a place people defecate in and have a tendency to drop it.
Also have some consideration for other people, it seems like you spend forever in the toilet doing nothing but be a manchild.

Well yeah. They're a business, they make money. You could just return the game to wherever you bought it for $80. Or sell it on Craigslist for $70?

>>376637634
