This month's offer flyer at Game Stop had various offers where you'd be able to give in a couple current-gen games from a list and get a heavily marked-down price tag on upcoming games. The section on Switch games had a typo in the fine print and they'd accept ANY used games up to the Wii. I confirmed with the employee that it was legit and I was able to get 75% off of Splatoon 2 and Mario + Rabbids by grabbing some 2€ Wii shovelware and immediately reselling it. I was going to do it for other games like Odyssey and Xenoblade 2, but the employee received a call right then signaling the typo. Still, the wrongful offer applied to the games I had already preordered so I was able to walk away spending 40€ on them instead of 120€. Feels great.

Share stories about lucky/cunningly abused store deals, I guess.

>one day staffer looks at me with an angry face
>"YOU KEEP DOING THIS WHY"
>well...if you must know I'm just very curious about gaming and you have this policy you know?
>weeks later get ps3
>get alien vs predator collectors on pre-order
>same staffer gives me my copy in the most damaged box I've ever seen
>hay what gives?
>"we reserve EACH individual copy for EACH customer, you can't swap it"
>stop going to that eb
>or any eb games for 2 years after that

I just wish they still had ps2 games, I could of made the snesorama archives again but nooooo after the first 40 games I was grabbing random shovelware that looked cool, never found any real gems apart from metal gear solid 2 if you can call it that.

As for the cost of the disc my actual job gave me staff discount and I bought the cheapest crap around, I still have the iso's.

In short I abused the 7 day return policy with piracy and miss it despite karma curb stomping me in the end, spent total of $30 on blanks, never bothered to burn some games

Ok. I'd rather not go to a physical store and jump through hoops.

When I was younger and my friend and I bought games we didn't like I would just go back and say that it didn't work and get my money back and buy a different game

Vendors are responsible for that shit. They really don't care anyway as long as games aren't sold prior to release.

I got halo reach collectors edition for 20€ cheaper than the standard edition due to someone writing the wrong price on the sign at blockbuster

>I was able to spend 40
>receipt clearly show 92 for both
what did he mean by this
>>
>>382432294
It's the mark down. See on the upper part of the receipt how I got -20,50€ or -25,50€ for each Wii game I sold back? That's the total mark down I got on the total of 120€.
>>
>>382432456
By the way, add to 120-92 the 10€ I spent to buy those four Wii games in the first place and you get the total price I spent, 38€ instead of 120.

I've legitimately started treating GameStop like a bank since that thread 4 years ago

You still supported the company by spending money there, retard.
You don't out jew jews. The only way to out jew a jew is to spend money at another jews place.

If you outjew a jew, doesn't that make you more of a jew than the actual jew?
