No we dony sell any if your info.

The only reason adress is saved is so that power up members can get GameInformer

Also last 5 purchases are saved simply so that our employees can better help a customer and offer games that are similar to your likes

So, you throw away a lot of money.

What are the benefits of this rewards card? I've never heard of it. Mind you, I am from Canada so I don't know if it is available here.


Every time you buy something from Gamestop, you get these points.  You can use your points to get free stuff.  The problem is that, unless you spend an insane amount of money there, you'll probably buy ten video games and have enough money to buy a Mario Keychain or something.  A guy like me who has spent a retarded amount of money has enough points to get some pretty cool stuff.  I'm saving my points for when they announce the Wii U price.

I'd post a link to the rewards catalog but it won't let me open the catalog unless I'm signed in.  I'm paranoid that if I post the link, you guys would be signed in as me (not likely but still) and then use up all of my points.  I've got 40, 444 points as of  yesterday.  I can get almost anything!


How many points do you get on average? (we'll say every new release full retail price game) I'm curious, I like free stuff.


On the rewards website, it shows your purchases.  I got 660 points for buying The Amazing Spider-Man so I guess that's the uniform price for a brand new retail game.  I actually think that you get more points for buying a game used as well as the 10% discount.  You should probably just ask BenVTrigger to be sure, though.

And that is all


Well that was anticlimactic.  In a way, I kinda wish they did have a little more info on me.  That way, employees would stop acting like I don't have any idea about gaming.  Still, kinda makes me wonder why all of those Gamestop employees try so hard to get me to pre-order a game when I live 300 miles from their store, though.  Anyway, thanks for the reply, Ben.
