Update FYE For Your Enragement? We made up :-)

when FYE first started trading games I made out like a freaking bandit. Was buying 9 dollar games and trading them for 30. I even gave them a scratched up no box or case, just the cd, GTA3 and got a sweet 30 bucks.

everything there cost $$[/QUOTE]

Do you know of a store where something doesnt cost money?:lol:
 
About the above comment . . . I think he meant double money . . . which is true.

[quote name='stoned99']OMG, you should be tar and feathered. How dare you act rationally and try to "discuss" unfair treatment. Frankly I think you just got lucky with the second manager. I just avoid the bad clerks like the plague. Strike up a relationship with 1 of the clerks and things go amazingly smooth. Even the ass wipe at one of my stores, has a smile on his face when he see's me. I'm developing quite the chameleon like personality to get the better of the control freaks. Make them feel important and suddenly your not so bad.

It's kind of like being married, you just have to put up with that shit for the greater good.[/QUOTE]

Holy Cow how did this thread get revived . . . actually, I should have just stayed away . . . I have managed to trade in some games at great "profit" but I just can't stand the store.

But I agree that good "impression management" will go a long ways . . . that's way I was soo pissed to begin with. I'm always polite and respectful.

I guess the store was possibly justified in their "racial profiling" of me . . . turns out it was another white male 30-40 year old (CAGer no less) who bent them over and raped them for a few hundred dollars in junk trades. LOL!
 
[quote name='billg']I love this board. I love these quotable quotes.[/QUOTE]


LOL. True. :)

The thing about the games costing double money is also correct sometimes. You have 20 dollar games going for a full $50...

Or even $5 games (albeit clearence ones) costing $50 . . . I'm making this example up but you'll be going through their games and find Wipeout Fusion (PS2) and it will be marked $49.99 . . . so you'll ask them to scan it because it must be less and so kidding its $50!
 
Bring those games into my store and I would also pass on the deal...



[quote name='schultzed']Original post left alone . . . see page 3 for my update!

So, I go into FYE to trade in Astro Boy and 2005 March Madness ($5 for the pair at BB).

Yay, I'll get something like $30 in credit to buy DVDs!

As I come in the "manager" gives me some strange look . . . "what's your name . . . were you the one who was told not to sell here?"

I'm just stunned . . . but I say, "no, not me" . . . "I traded five or six games here last year . . . bought the Star Wars Trilogy . . ."

I flash a few games to see values . . . "no we're not taking that game anymore . . ." I'm like "what?"

I pull out Psi Ops Xbox but it has some EBGames stickers . . . I pull the jacket out a bit so the UPC shows for him to scan "we don't accept games from other stores"

Now I'm getting pissed off . . . "why are you giving me a hard time?" . . .

"We won't buy any of your games . . . we don't have to."

I left really, really mad . . . after I got to work I called him to ask his name and the name of his manager . . .
