[quote name="srocky26" post="12961515" timestamp="1444426564"] Dragon Quest IV is available at GameStop.com and in most stores around me. The store I just left had it as a complete copy.

Is it hard to find? Or just hard to find complete?

DQ IV has been coming in and out of stock at Gamestop for years.

So I went and returned the Lunar White controller. The system gave me $37.20 back in credit and made the guy give me the other 32.xx back in cash. (I originally paid the 32.xx in trade credit)

I'm thinking about returning mine as well, but are there any other controllers with the grips?

Did you trade a controller toward the new one?

 

[AndyD33]

Did you trade a controller toward the new one?

Yes

 

[Drewish522]

I swapped my Lunar yesterday too and upgraded to the Master Chief controller. I had a love/hate relationship with the grips on the Lunar. I'm happy with my upgrade.

 

[Deader2818]

Yes

Thats why you got 37.20 back in store credit.

He said that he paid the rest in credit too. There's really no explanation ice had this happen to me before too but only at certain game stops with old registers

Some people are good at math, some are good at reading comprehension, and some are good at neither...

 

[Deader2818]

Ah sorry I read it wrong.

The pos can let you give back cash when credit was used in some cases. Not sure what triggers that.

 

[Gdogg]

I scored 4 touchdowns in a single game.

Al Bundy? Is it you???

When did the long holiday return period start last year? I'm wondering when we should expect it

 

[Dbill309]

I'm pretty sure that it already started. Seen it posted a while back.

it's live, started on 10/4

 

[pittsnoggle]

will probably use the holiday return policy on transformers

 

[FlyingMonkey9]

I have a b2g1 free used coupon expiring Tuesday, it's in store only right?

 

[BrianJason]

yes, but read the fine print on the coupon, it might be expired already. The date on the site is usually diif than the one on the coupon itself.

Wtf it says 9/30 that's annoying as

Well shit, it may be time for me to pick up both halo controllers then, just in case they're cheaper during BF and they sell out before then.

 

[sp00ge]

mother er.  I just returned my misaligned Lunar controller for a MC controller, got home and noticed it was a gutted.  Where the small round seal was, there was also a giant round one that GS puts on their gutted games.  I just opened it and it was clearly used and there's no REQ pack voucher inside.

No way did I just pay $70 for a ing used controller. The ing REQ pack code alone is selling for $20 on ebay.

I would go back and return that ASAP. That's a load of BS if true.

 

[Foxhack]

That's the Gamestop "New" experience.

They sold me a new PC game via the internet. It was disc only. this company.

Yeah, I'm taking it back in the morning when the manager is there.

It's still not the worst I've ever dealt with. There's this gem I like to bring up every so often:

you are not alone . gamestop

A baby animal that's capable of playing mahjong and is in 3D?!? Sounds like a winner to me.

 

[Foxhack]

At least you got a case. They sent me the disc in a paper envelope... INSIDE ANOTHER PAPER ENVELOPE. They didn't even bother mailing it in a padded envelope!

 

[pittsnoggle]

That's why I would never buy anything on game stop website, it it's not complete I don't want it

 

[AndyD33]

Someone really needs to start a class action lawsuit against Gamestop for fraud.

ur biggest mistake was buying "new" items from gamestop

 

[sp00ge]

Yeah, but I would've expected the controller to still be sealed. I know better than to buy "new" games from them though.

 

[Daring]

the worse part is when GS put their stupid seal/tape over an open product right in front of the customers/soccer mommies and sells it as new then turns around and tell the customer that if the seal is broken, its nolonger consider new and cannot not be return.

gamestop logic

 

[Blumpkin]

Yeah, I returned my Vita Disney Infinity starter last week because it was opened and had Gamestop labels on each item in the box (internet order).

The manager at the store that I returned it to wanted to argue that it was still new because nobody had ever played it. GTFO.

 

[fatmanforlife99]

Is it one code or two for the halo controllers?

Same thing happend to me when i purchased a covert controller back in August. I bought it 15 minutes before the store closed. I got home, opened the box and the controller had a dark stain on it. I looked at the box and it had the two circle pieces of tape like yours has. Took it first thing in the morning and the rep apologized. Good thing he kinda knows me from always going to GS. He was cool about returning it and giving me another one.

they use BAIT AND SWITCH tactics

I think you are confusing Gamestop with Target!

I just bought the last MC controller the closest gamestop had.  They had it out of the box on display behind the counter.  They put it back in the box and gave me a 10% 'storeworn' discount.  I'm happy with that, at least they gave a discount for the gutted one.  It was in perfect shape and has worked fine the past few hours.

 

[sp00ge]

Took it back and got a new one today.  Manager was a dick about it, grilling me as to why I returned the lunar and I was the only person at his store to return one for any reason.  He opened the box for the MC and we verified the code voucher was in there, and he wrote on the receipt that the box was opened in store and that I have a code.

I'm a regular at that store, and he was acting towards me like I was a ing thief.  Maybe he should look into who in his store is opening these controllers, snatching the codes and resealing them...?

Burn him on the survey.

 

[Kotor15]

Burn him on the survey.

This. Don't let him get away with that shit. I know the exact feeling and I burned their ass hard and ended up with an apology from the DM and a $25 gift card.

 

[Deader2818]

Not thay its your fault but to the manager it likely looks like you could have took the code and exchanging it for anothet code

 

[dominator]

That's still no reason to treat him as if he really did it. The manager is free to think what he wants, but he should act professionally. I'd be skeptical myself, but I'd never treat a customer that way.

 

[Komentra]

Burn him on the survey.

Do this. I've had a bad experience and did that survey on the receipt and got a phone call from a district manager whom asked me for more information about what happened during my experience and then he offered me a free pre-owned game of $20 or less to make up for it. I never did go pick up my free game, I didn't want them to think that's why i was complaining.

Gamestop related question, isn't Watch Dogs supposed to be $9.99 starting today for a preowned copy? I'm looking at the website and it's still saying $15.
