GameCrazy 3 for 15 is back, y0

i wish my store had complete games =( i would have gotten xmen COTA, fatal fury max impact and some others but decided not to since they were disc only =/. THeres like 5-10 complete psx games there and NO complete n64, snes, etc
 
Well I went to crazy today. I asked the guy working if they had a 3 for 15 going on, he said no, I asked if he had any recently, he said a couple weeks ago, then he went back to play his xbox with his friends. They didn't have a bunch of great things but it still super pisses me off how bad that gamecrazy has gotten.......messed up used prices, HORRIBLE used selection, now they have horrible employees, its a dump.

Go to the GameCrazy website and e-mail their Customer Service dept. Leave your name out of it though. I did this, complained about the game playing, the game hoarding, the length of time for check-out, and their poor marketing and I got a response the next day. The district manager even called me, his message sounded like I may have irritated him. I also complained about the conferences calls that were ongoing while I was shopping (I visited 5 stores within three hours and three of them were on the same conference call, 90 minutes apart).

There was not a game left over $12.99 and the signage for the Classic Plastic was not even posted in any of the stores. Stores claiming to not have the sale probably cannot locate the coupon code they need for the transaction. I do not believe the sale is listed in their ad (might be wrong).

Customers are lousy everywhere, pay is poor everywhere. Hoarding games is not justified; some of them have their friends come and get them too; the stores are hangouts in the evenings for the employees and their friends rather than game-stores...

Oh well...I bought a bunch anyways....

Yeah the gamecrazy has gottan run down in the past year, even more when they switched employees with a different store. If I complain, does it actually work?

I mean its not fair to me when I see games I want and there is no sale going on, but everyone else is in on it. Also the last 3 times I bought games, I didnt get an MVP discount, even though they asked for my information(not expired) and I reminded them about it. WTF is the point of having the thing when I dont get a discount?

I am usually pretty nice to the workers but the place is a dump now, just a hangout spot for little kids and the loser employees playing halo with them.
 
Most of the stores around here have been cleaned out for about a year, with nothing of interest being traded in lately.

This is all I've bought this time:

Super Smash Bros.
Rush 2049
Zelda: Majora's Mask

i think that's a potential problem with ANY "hobby" specialty store, although YMMV.
 
GameCrazy is, indeed, consistently unprofessional. Don't get me wrong, I like personable employees who give honest opinions and can talk to you without saying "sir"; however, it isn't uncommon to be ignored by the staff in favor of personal conversation or video gaming. They can also be decidedly unhelpful, telling you things like the games they have out are the only ones they have, and that there is nothing of interest in the back so checking would prove pointless. The first GC I went to the manager happily pulled out three drawers of N64 games to check out, and it was fucking 10 minutes to closing! The fact that the sales associates don't do the same proves to me that they simply don't want to, in spite of the fact that I was hoping to drop upwards of $100 on old games.

Fortunately, they carry games nobody else does and I will continue to shop there in hopes of avoiding the dickheads and getting help by the nice ones/managers.

Anyway, here's my haul:

N64
Yoshi's Story
WWF No Mercy
Jet Force Gemini
Banjo Tooie
Mario Golf
Mischief Makers
NFL Blitz 2000

SNES
Jungle Book
Looney Toons B-Ball

NES
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2
Hydlyde
Operation Wolf
Ultimate Stuntman
Rygar
Donkey Kong Classics

GENESIS
Kid Chameleon
Dinosaurs for Hire
Paperboy
Vectorman
Vectorman 2
Chakan

DC
Ooga Booga
Floigan Bros.

DEAR GOD I want
Super Smash Bros
Mario Tennis
Kirby 64
Conker's Bad Fur Day!

If anyone can help me out, I would gladly offer $8 a pop plus shipping for any of those games.

Picked up the following today:

Final Fantasy Tactics - Complete GH

I have SSB and Kirby 64 from the sale. Do you have anything to trade? I don't really want money for them but for the right trade I may let them go.

My roommate has Conker in the box and everything. I was hoping to get my own copy but wasn't able to.

I am going to hit up some more stores tomorrow. If I see another SMB or Kirby I will pick it up for you.

And remind me to hit myself again for putting Mario Tennis back in the box and then realizing the next day I should have bought it! It was already gone...

Is Alone in the Dark any good? About three places have had it but I haven't picked it up.
