I'm sad...

My Vita has a problem already and it is driving me crazy because I always notice it. My left analog stick has an issue with the small amount of grip that is on it. On the right stick the grip stuff fits perfectly attached inside whatever it is attached to, meanwhile the left side has a bit of a lip at the top and you can see that it wasn't done properly. It looks as if a tiny bit of it isn't there, even if just a bit more than the thickness of a hair.

As I play my games I can feel it and I just know that over time it is going to cause big time wear and tear damage and start to peel.

What should I do? Do you think if I bring it to Gamestop (Still have the reciept) they would just replace it? If so, anything I should do to the Vita first, like factory reset it?

You should check the back of the receipt for GameStop's return policy. I think you should be able to return it for a new one if you do it in 30 days. I'm sure this is the case for games but not sure if this applies for hardware because I've returned games there before. Yeah, you should factory reset it before you return it but I think GameStop does it themselves as it is store policy. If Gamestop won't take it, you could also probably call Sony and mail yours in and they'll send you a new one.
