creativeme 07/01/20 6:38:43 PM #38:	they make 5-10x profit on used games. i remember when my copy of okami on ps2 got scratched by my young cousin. went there asking if they had a disc buffer and he said no. he said i could trade it in and get a new copy. he knew it was messed up which i thought was weird. but they wanted like $50 for a used copy and guy said i could get like $6 to trade mine in. i went to game crazy(game store part of mammoth video i think) and it was $2 to buff the disc and make it look brand new. wish that place was still around. <cite>creativeme posted [p:941540903] in Gamestop m...

LMFAO -Treats their employees like shit -Tells their workers to lie as much as possible to take advantage of the customer -Swept COVID results under the rug and forced workers to still come in who were in contact -Tried to deem their business as essential, failed. So they started selling hand sanitizer. -Speaking of the hand sanitizer, all it was was pure rubbing alcohol that literally burned the skin of the warehouse workers who packed them Theres been so much other shit too before the COVID mess.

Prismsblade 07/01/20 7:02:59 PM #48:	I've noticed they've been packing their store with more and more merchandise as well in recent years and it seems to be paying off. Most mainstrean retailers sell video games which puts them in direct competition with gamestop but not collectable merchandise for the most part. Like cards, anime, and comicbook figures. So if they can get a foothold on that niche it could become their savior. --- 3DS FC:3368-5403-9633 Name: Kaizer PSN: Blackkaizer <cite>Prismsblade posted [p:941541906] in Gamestop m...
