Backstory
Since then i've stayed away from GS for about 2 months...then, recently, i tried testing the waters again since it was after the BBV B1G1 ended and it appeared I wasn't banned from GS since my Trade ins actually went through..
So today I decide to head down to my parents house and on the way i picked up a couple of wii sports and did some trade-ins for the "Trade 2 get $30 off a select Wii Game!" promo. I can honestly say i've returned a couple of the games i've gotten from this promo so i could take full advantage of the extra $5-$10 trade-in credit you get. Since i grabbed some Mercury Meltdown's from the SEARS clearance and some Code Lyoko's from the FYE clearance..i decided to spread it out to a couple stores cuz it's annoying trying to explain to them why im trading in multiple copies of games. Well about an hour ago i get one of the most intimidating phone calls from the DM as he starts screaming and hollering that he's calling the police because of something about "Loss Prevention" and that I'm running "Scams" and that i understood in the handbook i signed upon my employment at GS that i was NOT allowed to trade in multiple copies of the same games...He tells me if I ever step foot inside another GS again he'll call the police. He also threatened to cancel my edge card and disallow me from spending any of my GS credit ever again at GS. He apparently has some detective in Rome on call that he can contact at anytime if he sees or hears that i've been in one of his stores. When i inquired about my credit and how that was unfair how he could just eliminate all the trade-ins i'd made he tried to cut a deal with me saying: "If you want to use your credit, fine! You contact the store you want to use your credit at, and they'll contact me, and I'll come down there and you can use ALL YOUR CREDIT at that store. But after that, I don't want you steppin foot inside another GS" Yet..he's only in his office once a week?!..
So ye...im officially scared...and im probably leaving out some stuff simply cuz i've never been called a crook like this before, so im honestly pretty shaken up. I didn't realize i've broken some City Ordinance Law where I live..or even that there WAS laws against what i was doing?
even more confusing...near the end of the conversation I asked him "So wait...im banned from ever buying anything at every GS in the country?!" And he said "OH, you can still make purchases at GS using cash, check or credit (card im guessing)" so WTF?! need some advice here...i mean i have NEVER had to deal with something like this before so I thought the CAGs would be the best experts to ask about this situation
Backstory
(Dates this happened: Beginning of October 08 - End of November 08) I worked at GameStop for 2 months and worked a GRAND TOTAL of 4 hours (those 4 hours were AFTER my the 1st 4 weeks i had been hired)...A few days afterwards, I get in an argument with an employee at a different GS regarding the use of the "Cellfire" coupon and that she said it was a "fraudulent" coupon, so she calls my manager who proceeds to call his District Manager and for 4 long weeks my hours were put on hold until i got sick of it and called my manager asking him when i was going to work again..and i was told the DM cut me. Angered, i left the DM a message on his voicemail and told him i was unsure of why i was cut. A WEEK later he calls me back and tells me: "YOU WERE FLAGGED BY CORPORATE FOR MULTIPLE TRADE VIOLATIONS. YOU READ IN YOUR HANDBOOK THAT YOU CANNOT TRADE IN MORE THAN 1 OF THE SAME GAME! I HAD NO INTEREST IN KEEPING YOU SO I FIRED YOU." ME: I mean, yes I was trading in multiple copies of the same games, but they were all legitimately bought and I can provide a receipt for them. DM: "I don't really care, i have no interest in keeping you and you're banned from trading at GS."
Since then i've stayed away from GS for about 2 months...then, recently, i tried testing the waters again since it was after the BBV B1G1 ended and it appeared I wasn't banned from GS since my Trade ins actually went through..
