Is Gamestop really a ripoff?

[PlazmaLink]

I'm pretty sure it is, if not it is certainly breaking some kind of code.

everytime i buy a game from gamestop i never pick the off the shelf i always ask for see if they the have and but i always make sure its in original packaging before i paid for it, because i hate they removes games from there original package, i loved sweet of new games, i cant stand 2nd hand games and i only buy a games nintendo network symbol to make sure i get nintendo stars card

Gamestop sells used games as new; there's a reason they keep all the games outside of the shelved game cases.

A lot of game shops do that

Random question: Would EBgames Trade-in Offers apply to Gamestop too?

 

[Smertros]

yes along they are xbox360, Wii, Ps3, 3ds, Ds and wiiu games

 

[PlazmaLink]

I mean EBgames is doing a trade in offer where you can use trade credit to get gift cards like a Wii points card. Would that offer apply to Gamestop aswell?

 

[Smertros]

yes it called store credit, i still use my gamestop gift card today
