| NotStan said: Game is a rip off, hence the poor profits. I suppose people are more "smart" these days with money, so they actually spend time checking online to find the best deal instead of nipping down to a highstreet store which has the price about 10-15% more. Supermarkets have also become more aggressive in selling video games at competitive prices, and I suppose Game/Gamestation loose a lot of their custom there, and also offer trading in prices better than Game usually do. Overall well deserved for Game seeing as how much of a rip off it is, they buy the game off you for £15 or w/e then stick it on the shelf for £35, business I know. The only bad thing about this whole ordeal is the fact that many employees will be affected as a result. I feel sorry for the employees, not the company and its policies. |
Agreeds, apart from the staff bit.
I can't imagine there's too many people who have a career at GAME (teehee...a career as a shop assistant). The managers are all wankers and deserve to be sacked, speaking very generally on that but I've been to a fair few GAME stores over the years and never met a polite customer orientated manager, but have met plenty of arseholes who talk to you like dirt.
