Gamestop scrounging pennies, literally

jaykhunter

What if you paid €50.04; they'd likely have a 5 cent coin. Or to develop the idea, €50.09 and a 10 cent coin.

Sorry to go off-topic; but paying €49.99 for a game is too much. Even if you just shop around, a lot of the time you'll get it for €44.99 somewhere else. Better savings could be had by buying online (amazon, zavvi, play etc). Personally unless I had to have it, i'd gave it a couple of weeks; less than a month after release I paid ~€35 for MK9 on Amazon (whilst it was at least a tenner more expensive in the high street) and it arrived in a few days.

Oh Jaysus. I was going to unsubscribe to this thread there after yer man signed up to boards to defend Gamestop in a failed Internet-funny-guy way, but I'm glad I had another glance. I wasn't arguing for the penny for any monitory value, just the principle.

But I take it all back. The other lad, General Hate's absolute meltdown there was worth any extra pennies, I might have paid anyway. Amazing.

What can I say, I aim to please...

It wasn't a meltdown though...I'm always this angry. It's hard not to be when the world is full of so many overly critical, self-important, poorly opinionated, totally conceited & up their own arse dickheads.

**** all y'all, you can suck my balls......for 1c a go!!!

yeah I was on the other side of the argument but please complain away if it leads to more things like that happening.

General Hate Enforcer has been banned for being a bellend. I'm sure Gamestop would love to hear how one of their employees is acting like that.

It was his attacks on the Reason For Edit box that got me. The innocent party in all this.

So then, where to start....

Without naming names, the amount of complete and utter morons on this thread complaning about Gamestop staff has me at a loss for words. The staff who work in establishments like Gamestop have a job to do, that job involves selling disc insurance, getting customers to pre-book, and getting people to trade-in their games. The guys on this site who find the staff irritating don't need to go into Gamestop because they can just use their mammy's credit card instead & just order it from their favorite website: Iamalonely30somethingyearoldmanwhostillliveswithhisparents.com.

Wow, projecting much?

There is another shop that everyone buys games in that doesn't put cents in their tills. The only way you'll get a cent change is if someone before you has paid for something and handed one over. Its pretay snakey.
