[quote name='Serialkilla']I just had a shady experience at my Gamecrazy.
First, is it $29.99 at all Gamecrazy's?
If so, this was my very odd/shady experience.
1) I took the lone used copy to the checkout (stickered at $49.99 w/MVP)
2) Employee rings it up and does a double take (at the price I'm assuming)
3) Employee then fiddles around with the register for approx. 1 minute, looking a bit uncomfortable
4) Employee tells me my total is $54.xx
5) I question the total, employee assures me price is correct
6) I pay with cash, exit the store, walk to my car, and place my son his car seat
7) I then walk back into the store and ask to return the game (left wife in car with child)
8) Looking uncomfortable again, employee is curious as to why
9) My wife is having a cow that I spent so much (how true! I told her it was $30 brand new)
10) Employee does NOT have $54 in his register, only $30, had to get a manager to unlock the second register for the rest
Keep in mind, I was the only person in the store, and was outside for about 45 seconds. Now, I'm used to games not getting marked down around here in a timely manner, but this employee really struck me as odd. I swear he looked clammy as hell and was sweating a bit.
Is this guy ripping people off or am I a paranoid mofo?[/QUOTE]
All the GCs I went to, even the ones without stock stated that the new price was $29.99 in the system and $24.99 used. If you guys don't mind used, I believe the Colton, CA GC has two used copies (at least they did on Saturday afternoon at ~5PM). The sticker price for the used copies DID say $49.99 though.
If they are giving you a hard time, you could try calling up another Game Crazy while you're there to confirm the pricing. I'm pretty sure prices are universal among the stores.
