"GameStop Says Two-Thirds Of Their Customers Don't Understand What 'Trade-In' Means"

[kane_magus]

If I ever bothered to go to a GameStop again, which is highly unlikely, and I tried to buy something and the cashier said "Have you heard that cash isn't the only way to pay here at GameStop?" I'd be tempted to say something like "Yes, but cash is what I'm paying with now, though if you don't want it and would rather shill trade-ins instead of just take my fucking money and give me what I fucking bought, I'll happily take my business elsewhere." I wouldn't actually say that, mind you, but I'd be tempted. But then, as I said, the likelihood of me ever stepping inside of a GameStop again is near to zero, for several reasons that both I and owsf2000 have ranted about in the past, so it's all a moot point anyway.

Now mind you, I still go into gamestop regularly. I just regularly don't buy anything from them either due to their handling of the product. The next game I plan on buying will probably end up being Hatsune Miku Project Diva F 2nd, and for normal stores the only place I'll probably find that is in gamestop.

... then again maybe I'll just order from amazon.ca. >_>
