Poe Øhlin Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Yeah. The first time I ever owned God of War it didn't work and I took it back right away. They told me that it was in no way shape or form the games fault, but it was my console, which has never had a single problem playing any game unless it's beat the f*ck up. And that copy of GOW had two big scratches through the middle. They gave me a full refund, and I ended up using it to buy a few movies. I ended up buying GOW last (I bought it the first time in 2011) from Half Price Books and it worked like a charm. But yeah, that's my Gamestop story.

sam the d00d Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Despite being shorted a game manual once, not at all. I've had nothing but good experiences there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generations Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I don't do business with them. I sold a shit ton of games there when I was about 15. Probably had around 100 games...PS1, PS2, Gameboy Color, Gameboy Advance, etc...and I think they gave me about $80 all together...which is obviously a terrible deal, but I was desperate for money (didn't have a job yet), so I did it. I never shop there either. I bought Pokemon White 2 there a few months back, but it was only because I went to Walmart and their case wouldn't unlock. I couldn't order from Amazon (which is what I would normally do), because I didn't have electricity from Hurricane Sandy. It was a giant clusterf**k, but anyway...that was probably the first purchase I made at Gamestop in a decade...and I plan on it being my last.

Lumpy McRighteous Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 No, but I've been consistantly unimpressed by what they've offered me for the games I've considered trading in (they either offered a miniscule amount of in-store credit or chump change, so I just kept my games). Only reason I go to that pissant store is when Nintendo is doing a Pokemon distribution. Otherwise, I avoid them and just go to Toys 'R Us or Best Buy.

maskedmaniac Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Whenever I try to sell a game there I feel ripped off. I remember going in to sell SF4 to get the upcoming SSF4 thinking I was gonna get at least 15 dollars and all they were gonna give me was $4. They're a lot like a pawn shop, they try to give you as little as possible so they can make the biggest profit even if your game is worth more.

Mr. JustMe Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 Never initially had a problem with Gamestop, but the Rewards Points thing was really stupid...and I really don't bother selling games to Gamestop, I'd rather go to a local CEX store to do such a thing....

Muur Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I assume GAME is the same. When I pre-ordered SvR 2010, they didn't give me my Pre-Order Bonus. They also overcharge for some Games. When I bought two PS1 Games like five years ago I had to pay like £20. I paied it though because I wanted those two games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin ツ Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 I went to trade in a 160GB iPod Classic there a couple weeks ago and the guy offered me $35, even though it has no scratches, original box, manual, and original, unused headphones. I literally laughed in his face and walked out of the store. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinda off the main subject but I remember K-Mart a few years ago, well like 6 or 8 years ago was a rip-off because they were charging $50-60 for brand new, unopened SNES games and a few original NES games. Some stores don't really realize that as popular as some games and the consoles are, they do go down in price considerably, especially as new systems come out.

*Self Made* Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 My relationship with Gamestop is just buying games I want on day one like recently with The Hitman collection. I use to trade in games when I was younger but I dont ever do it anymore. All my business is with Amazon these days, their deals are much better.
