Ask them how many new copies were bought from that very GameStop to that point in time.

If the ratio is anywhere close to 1 return: 3 sales, that's bad.
But, something tells me that very GameStop sold 100+ copies.

I WON A BET AGAINST AZUREN! WOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Well if gamestop is anything like ebgames in Australia then anything returned within the money back guarantee period is put back on shelf and sold as new again.

So the number could be worst. This is why I always ask for shrink wrapped games.

truth be told we will never know this early on. Give it a few months and lets see where the sales end up.

Really? 5 pre-owned copies, on two separate console?

I'm sure its true!

But we can't be certain about this because you saw a few copies at a store.

OMG 1% trade in rate. Destiny = epic fail.

Destiny trade in rate > Hyrule Warriors global FW launch sales.
