I hate GameStop.

Don't give your money to those bastards.

 

 What's wrong with Gamestop? I never had problems with them.

None of the money they make buying and selling games goes to the developers who made the games.  I don't like that.  Their buy and sell prices for used games are a ripoff anyway.

I agree with overpriced used games.  I bought Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn from them a month ago and they still had it priced at 39.99.  If only I could have found it somewhere else.

As to the buying and selling of used games, no money should go to the developer.  That is like saying you sell your used chair to someone for 100$ and then you go and pay the carpenter 25$.  It would be a nice thing to do, but that is not how capitalism works.

if you are talking about not giving developers money off of the new games they sell, I don't see how they can choose not to.  They buy the games from the publishers and then mark up the price to suggested retail.
