I went into Gamestop the other day looking for a few used GBA games to occupy my time, and left with copies of Fire Pro Wrestling, Fire Pro Wrestling 2, and Bomberman Classic (NES). FPW and FPW2 were $5 and $6, respectively, but Bomberman wasn't tagged. I remembered seeing it on GS's site at $3.99 used, so I grabbed it.

Unfortunately, I was charged $6.99. I know it's only $3, but it's enough to annoy me - does Gamestop do price adjustments for things like this? Am I better off just returning it (I've got 7 days on used games)? Will they honor a printout off of their site for price verification?

The website doesn't mirror the store sometimes.

Yeah, website prices are usually not vaild in stores, however most of the time the website matches the store prices, even if they do not update the stickers on the games. There have also been cases where they put the wrong barcode for the game on a game, that would also alter the price of game, given the selection of gba bomberman games availible, i wouldnt be suprised if this is what happened. I believe gamestop has a disclaimer on their website saying gamestop.com prices are not guaranteed to match up with store prices.

It's very YMMV. I bought a EEE for the psp, price dropped $10 dollars the next day, they wouldn't credit me the differences and so I had to buy another one from them just to return back to the differences.
