Just like best buys gamer club unlocked program, the return isn't what they thought it would be. I know most of you have an unreasonable amount of hate towards GameStop but try to get it renewed if you don't. Lest amazon be the only 20% discount program left.

I have it, but have barely used it. Seems like a lot of their used games are more expensive than they would be nee at other places.

What other places? Best buy is loaded with used games they can't move but beyond that what big retailer is selling used games anymore?

I don't buy games often enough really. Plus unless it's something that I've been waiting for I'll buy it used when cheaper. And to really top it off if I have a couple games I'm interested in playing at once or won't spend too much time on I'll buy them used from GameStop and just bring whatever back week or month later to either return after beating in a week, or exchange for a different game or credit after beating it month later.

Game stop should probably be strict about people like me looking into the logistics of the different discounts too hard.

I mean I keep or buy new and trade in more games than I GameStop rent but I can't imagine how many people just completely abuse the return/exchange policy.

That's actually true for some things unless you're just going to download it.

Or they could order a lot of extra copies like any other retailer and not just pre-orders+one extra.

They lose money if those extra copies don't sell.

They're not in the business of making sure everyone gets a game, they're there to make money.

I remember when that actually used to be true. I just stopped going to Gamestop and would buy games somewhere else.

They're getting rid of it because they don't want people to come back after they're out of business saying they owe them money for their Pro membership.

It's really not that serious. Sure they took off collector's editions and remasters and that sucks but it's not the end of the world.

I'm not too bothered by it. The savings weren't that much and their rewards were hardly worth it.

No. What I mean is I've been to gamestop and compared the prices of their used games to new ones at, say, walmart and found the used ones are commonly more expensive. The elite pro discount getting it to about the same price range.

I think I noticed it with a few games I was looking at. Diablo 3, for example, was $10 more for a used copy at that gamestop than it was at the neighboring walmart.
