It seems like most complaints about Gamestop aren't directed at customer service, as the employees are usually pretty nice, it's about the prices and policies.

It seems like most complaints about Gamestop aren't directed at customer service, as the employees are usually pretty nice, it's about the prices and policies. They'll buy a used game or take it as a trade in for next to nothing and then turn around and sell it at almost retail price. Lots of kids are basically throwing games away at Gamestop.
- wernercd 11y agoAdd to that, the fact that a lot of stuff can't be resold these days. Special gear, hats for specific versions, one time registration codes, etc. I'm all for buy low-sell high (I never sold because it wasn't worth the trade, but thats just me) - but buying from GameStop just leaves you with a gimp product. A large part of that can't be blamed on GS. Developers are all after the PreSale bonus', DLC and anything that stops secondary sales. As much as I love Steam, it is worrysome that I don't even have the option of reselling my games. (On the same token: I generally don't buy unless it's 50-75% off, so...)
- vlunkr 11y agoI don't mind that fact that I can't sell Steam games, because the tradeoff is that I can download the game whenever I want and don't have to keep track of a physical copy.
