Gamestop cheats everyone in every way possible and it bothers me. Anyone else share in this?

Ya they pissed me off and so I don't buy games from them anymore. Or anything from them actually.

The root of all ignorent, non gamer, video store clerks, who think 'Starcraft' hasn't come out yet. (PS: I literally mean the old starcraft, that is around 10years old.)

I also had one of their clerks tell me, "Sorry, but we don't sell PsP game's" when there was a freaking shelf of them right beside him.

Maybe checking their games to see if they work/if they are fake or not before selling them would make them halfway decent.

Play N Trade is by far the best video game store franchise ever. Far superior to GameStop. Sadly, all the ones around me closed, and my only option is GameCrazy or GS online. I choose the latter.

GameStop's online service is pretty good. I ordered two Xbox games and the shipping I paid for said "Expect one day for processing, and then three to five days for delivery". I got my package in the morning of the third day. Damn impressive.

Never had these problems at my local Gamestop. Maybe it's southern hospitality? :P

I bought Eragon the game right after it came out and beat it in two days, went to Gamestop and was trading it in. They wanted three dollars for a brand new game, with no scratches on it. I paid forty dollars for it, would you make the trade.

Gamefly is good that is where I buy all my games now. I don't have a cool neighborhood game store like some people have, even one of my cousins has one he took me there it was awesome.
