Gamestop stories

[TonyTheTiger]

There's a big difference between "verbal assault" and wanting to get your moneys worth. When you say you want a sealed copy, they roll their eyes and speak in a sarcastic tone, and act like they're doing you a favor by taking your money, there's no excuse for that anywhere. I've worked in retail before and it wasn't tolerated. But it's fine, they're the next blockbuster video, it's only a matter of time.

If they're rude for whatever reason that's one thing. I've never personally experienced anything of the sort with staff being rude to me simply for declining a purchase. Less work for them.

But the point is that regardless of whatever the store policy is, you're either going to buy the game or not. If you want to pretend the store copy isn't really there and if they're out of shrinkwrapped copies then they're effectively sold out of the game so be it. Call people out for being rude if that's what they're being but other than that nobody deserves a lecture.

I'm going to go out on a limb here based on my own personal experiences and seeing lots of things as a third party observer. I'm not pointing any fingers at anybody specific but I'm going to guess that if somebody frequently gets treated rudely by a store's staff they're probably doing something to provoke it.
