So i went to gamestop today and traded in a couple of games and i bought myself guild wars nightfall. I arrived at home only to find that the cds and cd key were missing out of the box. The game wasnt sealed but then again none of the games in the **** store are and i hadnt noticed until i took off the jacket that it was missing. So I called gamestop explaining my problem and they were hard to work with and not very sympathetic. They told me to come tommorow and i expect to get turned down because i cant proove thatI wasnt the one who stole the game. Either gamstop employees steal their own merch or their security is just horrible. Either way all i want is the game or my money back but im very dissapointed in gamestop and this hasnt been the first time theyve done something like this to me. My rant is over but if anyone else has any bad experiences with gamestop or any game store feel free to share them.
I don't know about PC games but Gamestop often does use their merchandice.
One of my friends works at a Gamestop and he often brings 360 games home from the store. He says that employees can "rent" or borrow the games for free as long as there is enough to fill the preorders. He says they bring the games back in a week and then sell them as new.
It's always a good idea to check inside the box of merchandise (that's already been opened)you buy before you walk out of a store. Just let that be a lesson to you. Any other retail store would have reacted in the same way, so that's not really not a knock against gamestop.
I've had bad experiences in GameStop myself. One of them being that I wanted to trade in GTA San Andreas, but wasn't able to because apparentley the copy I had was one of the first ones manufactured with the bad "stuff" in it, so I had to walk back home empty handed. Another thing was when a lady thought I was following her, but whatI was really doing was looking for a game. Some people just don't have any sense.
