Why do I hate Gamestop so?

Gamestop is still better than Best Buy who tries to sell extended warranty for everything from a console to a controller.

 

yeah. Gamestop just harasses you until you preorder something that you didn't really want in the first place.

 

I swear they won't leave me alone. I walk in there and buy a game for the DS. I don't even mention the games that I have but then they start in "have you reserved your copy of too human?" and I am like "I dont have a 360" and they're like "well then what about Animal Crossing?" and I'm like "well. I don't  have a Wii?"

 

Not at my GameStop.  Our manager doesn't care all that much.  At most we'll offer a reserve of Madden to a guy buying NCAA or something similar, or an Edge subscription to a guy buying a lot of used games.  Basically, we offer these things to people who we think would actually care about them. 

I've always hated the whole harassment thing at GameStop, and when I got hired I vowed to never pull that crap on customers. I got hired at a new store, and just about everybody at the store feels the same way except for one person.

I'm glad there is at least 1 gamestop that doesn't do that.

 

 

I'll admit, stores like ours are few and far between.

And luckily our reserve and subcription numbers still stay pretty high, or our district manager would be bitching at us about it.
