The most evil corporation in the world. They buy back used videogames for less than a dollar and then procede to sell them back at ten times that cost.
Gamestop bought back my Pokemon Silver copy for a dollar and sold it for twenty bucks.

1. Sells a "discount card" that simply removes the tax from any purchase and adds a paltry amount to the already undervalued trade-ins.
2. Can't be bothered to produce mock display cases, so they open a new copy and use that.
3. Considers the potential rental(s) of said copies by employees, to not count toward considering the game "used" and proceeds to sell the above mentioned copies "as new".
4. Many employees are so casual they'll stand around talking and playing PSPs while customers wait.
5. Will buy a used game that sold for $59.99 last week, for $12.00 (credit) then, sell it for $55.00.
6. Apply a penalty of -20% for cash trade-ins.
7. Used game prices for new games are only five dollars less than new.
8. Do not take cases, books, maps, other pack-ins into consideration no matter how important, when considering price for used merchandise.
Why shop at Gamestop or EBgames when you can go to eBay or, any other other user-based exchange, and buy or sell games for sensible prices?

A place where you go to get raped in the ass when all you wanted to do was buy a video game. If you attempt to buy anything, the employees will rip your heart out with their eyes when you decide to not purchase the extended warranty/strategy guide/used version of said item.
Bill bought a game from gamestop and was threatened verbally when he declined to purchase the strategy guide.

A place where they will force you to be open on Easter Sunday, even though the nine other stores in your strip and the 12 across from you are closed...two weeks after your store was held up by three masked me with shotguns in broad daylight. A place where they will have someone come in your store to move your safe from the locked back room up to the front counter DURING BUSINESS HOURS for the world to see. A place where "Loss Prevention" will come in your store and tell you that you have to let customers use the bathrooms. A place where "Loss Prevention" will tell you that you must take the deposit to the bank every day RIGHT BEFORE YOU OPEN, same time, without deviation, for the entire world to see, instead of allowing you to take it during the day at different times, which would be safer and a lot more inconspicuous. A place run by corporate monkeys who have no clue what goes on at the store level. A place that really doesn't care if you live or die working there, that gets continually robbed from the inside and out.
Gamestop really sucks
Working at Gamestop really sucks
We've been robbed 6 times since we opened this Gamestop
We've had 4 break-ins since we opened this Gamestop
We have cameras at Gamestop, but nobody ever gets caught
I can't believe they still work at Gamestop

A video game store whose main objective is to piss you off as much as possible in the short amount of time you're in the store. You'd think for such a big name that Gamestop employees would be very helpful and nice. Well you thought wrong, my friend.
If you ever want to return a game, buy a game, reserve a game, or do anything related to video games make sure to go ANYWHERE but Gamestop. They just love to rip you off, persuade you to NOT buy what you want to buy because they don't like it, and just screw you over in general.
Idiot: "Hey man, I gotta trade in this game. Let's go to Gamestop!"
Me: "Fuck you."

a place of business, often filled with nerds who discuss specific battles they've had with sephiroth, fat women who live in trailors and smack their kids for throwing a box of yu-gi-oh cards across the room, fat men who don't know what they want but want it RIGHT NOW, and employees who hate their lives.
I used to think video games were cool before i worked at Gamestop.

A basic glorified pawn-shop in which criminals and scumbags can "trade-in" video games and dvds for cash. Beware of their Game Informer Card and Don't reserve games.
Welcome to Gamestop, your one stop pain-in-the-fucking-ass.
