So much hate for GameStop - is it justified?

Amazon: problems solved.

In a way.  But going to a retail store is a much more immediate solution for many of us.  When I buy from Amazon, I go crazy waiting for my item to arrive.  I bought The Adventures of Tin Tin on 3D Blu Ray yesterday (can't find that damn movie in 3D anywhere!) and it is supposed to come sometime between April 20th and May 7th.  Same thing when it comes to selling.  A few bucks or store credit in hand now or a lot more or possibly nothing, later?

I have to admit, perhaps I am a bit biased towards Amazon myself because everything I buy from there is something I've pre-ordered, so I know that 1-2 days after release I'll have it. (Have to order from uk amazon because there is no nl one)

Another reason probably is that I hate physically shopping.

That's a rather wide gap for delivery date for tin-tin though, it's a pretty new movie, so that is indeed a shame on their part, I agree.
