Hang on "come and collect"?, I thought Boris just initiated a 4 week lockdown?. Game UK isn't counted as an "essential" place to go to, especially during another lockdown situation. Though in saying that, it's not like the cops are going to be patrolling outside GAME to make sure ppl don't go in anyway.



Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see

So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"

A friend said even during the dust lockdown, game didn't close. They found a way to stay open. The one in Leicester it's inside a sports direct as well so not sure what and how their doing it.

Click and collect, it is not that different than getting your packages from amazon at a postal office/a drop point.

It kind of is when you're talking pre-orders and day 1 collection for a brand new console. Especially if they're only offering limited hours to collect, you'd have to assume it would end up being pretty busy (ie. the exact opposite of what it should be in a lockdown).

So long you have a line like postal offices it will be fine,  it is not like hundreds of consoles will be picked up.
