Hell, Buybacks be like, "I can give you a $1.15!" And then they'll turn around and sell something for $60!

I've never heard of that place, but I sincerely doubt that specific scenario has ever happened. lol. Unlike my completely realistic one.

Much as Gamestop annoys me, they're light-years ahead of how the old, now defunct Gamecrazy used to be. Their employees didn't even understand how trade-in deals worked! I went there one Christmas to get a PS3 for my brother, and brought in a weekly ad I had received that morning, and the employees GOT MAD at me for using it, and then had the stupidity to claim that it clashed with my member's card instead of supplementing it. I must have gotten about 200 bucks of credit from well over a thousand dollars' worth of games, plus the clerk antagonized me the entire time.

So, yeah, I don't like Gamestop, but they've treated me a lot better than other stores. Kind of like how a girlfriend that only calls you a loser feels refreshing after you leave one that slashes your tires and hacks your e-mail (hypothetically, of course...or is it?)

That's why I don't buy anymore. I Just rent them.

Oh, this place will nickel and dime you. Even their Facebook page gets crapped on by people.

They were selling used PS2 copies of Silent Hill 3 for $63!

And I have a copy of The Sonny Chiba Collection with Bullet Train, Golgo 13, and Virus on DVD and they would only give $6 for it and at the time last year, copies were going for $70 on Amazon and eBay. Also took in my DVD copy of The Eye, the Chinese/Thai film and they were like; "25 cents" and it's selling for $10.

I stopped shopping at gamestop years ago due to their lack of trade-in amounts and ripping off customers (although its partial the customer fault for agreeing to the low ball price).

I hardly and next to never buy used cause i know the markup profit their earning and i stopped doing trades as well and just sell online,someone i know or keep it so no real reason for me to shop there.
