Considering all the (well-deserved) shit Gamestop gets on these forums, I figured I'd share a pleasant experience I had today. The only Gamestop I frequent is a former EB in a local shopping plaza that does all the right things in my book (neat, pleasant staff, games properly sorted, no stickers directly on the game covers etc.). So I went in there to grab a copy of Madworld, and while I saw several "new" (gutted) copies on the shelf, I asked the cashier if they had a sealed one. Not only was she totally cool about it, she actually told me to hang on, went in the back, and came out with a shrinkwrapped strategy guide that she said they were planning to throw out. Sealed game + free strategy guide = awesome cashier. I have to tell you, it totally made my day, and guranteed them 100% of my future Gamestop business. Heck, I might even pre-order something. I think it just goes to show that it's not the brand, but the employees that make the difference.
