GameStop Sued Over Deceptive Used Game Sales

Some of their policies need to be changed (selling opened copies of brand new that the case is used as a display for the same price as a sealed copy).

I don't think he's an idiot, Gamestop/EB Games cardholders get additional discounts on used games on top of the 5 dollars less. He would have actually got it for 44.49 instead of full retail, 60.00.

Well, according to the article, he paid $54.99 for it so he's a idiot. Bottom line is there is no excuse for when person to pay a certain price for a game used when the brand new sealed copy costs $5 more.
