I told him how much I spent last year there (at least $1500 in new games alone) and that I was a long time consistant customer (my local store has a stellar staff, unlike most locations), and John's response was "You obviously find value in our services, feel free to buy this elsewhere". I replied I would buy a lot of other things elsewhere as well :). I then went to my local store and cancelled 4 preorders (Tiger, WSR, Conduit, & Grand Slam Tennis). That's how we should reply to this.

 

so in response you are going to give them twenty dollars worth of cancellation fees?

I hate giving $ to Walmart, but at least Walmart sells games for MSRP... not over.



BAM! There it is!

No, I just applied it to another purchase and cancelled all preorders. And will not preorder again.

Walmart sells blank CD's and porn infested PSP's, or stones instead of DS systems. I'd rather overpay at Gamestop than buy at walmart.

And Gamestop over prices Used games sells some used games as 'new'(thanks to it's allowing Employees to check out new and used games for 4 days) and has sold porn infested PSP/360 Memory cards.

Then I suggest everyone should shop at Target or something... it's just that Walmart is a really bad alternative to GS.

I called them... The guy said that that was their price. Then I told them I was going to buy elsewhere, then he said that it might be a mistake, then asked his manager when he couldn't find what was wrong. He came back and said that their marketing department made that decision, then reccommended me buying it elsewhere... Now to call Nintendo!

Why am I so unlucky that none of my memory cards or systems come infested with porn?

It seems everyone else is so lucky!

Thank you! Did you call national or local? Local helps, but a bunch of corporate calls will make a bigger difference...
