Very good - you read the first sentence. Now when you read the rest of it, it clearly implies that it's talking to employees. "No posting pictures of customers, employees, or back rooms". "No posting of confidential emails, correspondences, or internal documents." "This also applies to test markets/areas and programs...and may lead to guest confusion." "Guest" is the company's word for customer.

"This includes simply posting a picture of your price change totals."
"No YMMV responses to policy/procedure. Any questions on policy must be answered with only policy, not what your store would do differently, which can lead to guest issues for other stores."

There's also a pinned thread for guests asking questions.  Yes, asking outside of that thread is going to get downvoted and removed because it's against the rules.  Otherwise everything else you said is pretty much spot on.  It's welcoming to guests....if they follow the guidelines.

Don't know how a place for GS employees to vent their frustrations can be the worst community you've seen, but you're obviously not who it's there for. It's generally not a place for customers to ask questions, though some employees will still answer them.

It's just another one banned member back trolling the site again for the 30th time. Probably he who shall not be named the way he is bitching about best buy as well.

Can we use the $10 as deposit on a pre-order? Or a receipt $10 PSN card? The terms mention no pre-played games only.

Back 4 Blood
Deathloop
Far Cry 6
FIFA 22
Metroid Dread


Any of these coming out soon and guaranteed to love? Need to burn some certs and start getting some trade credit generated for the Black Friday sales.

I'm holding onto my PS4 Pro for a similar reason: it still has P.T. on it and that's really the only reason I turn the thing on..

I know it's been remade for PC because I have it (and even be played in VR) but there's something about booting up the genuine article.

That said, $250 to go towards upcoming shiz (Steam deck specifically) would really make me so happy


Is Gamestop offering Steam Deck? Because if so, I might have to preorder one.

You can store PT on an external that’s connected to your PS5 and it shows up, but a logo says playable only on PS4 it won’t let you boot it.

Said Fuck it and that's what I did. It's on the drive if I ever find future need of it.

Nope, but they have Steam gift cards that can be purchased with trade credit, so that's what I'm doing. Banked $400 in my Steam wallet from trades since the Deck announcement.

Super noob question but I've never had game coin before, where do I even check on their website to see if I've gotten mine?

It should be in your active offers.

Yeah I found it. My mistake was assuming it'd be the first thing on the page since I figured new = top of page. But no, It was at the bottom. My active offer page is just covered in $5 gift card things since I always just use my monthly credit on that stuff.

I was able to use it on a physical $10 PSN card.

Why don’t you use the certificates on Black Friday sales instead. They worked for me the past few years.

Put those reprints on Switch and I'll bite at that price.  Played those on N64, original Xbox, and Gamecube, Would love to play them again on the go.

The amount of PUR points you get back from a purchase is dependent on if you used certificates or not. Buy a $20 game and use a $15 certificate, well you only get points on $5 of that purchase.

If however you buy a game with PUR points and trade it back in with G2L, then you at least get points for trading it in. It's probably one the fastest (if not the fastest) ways of converting points to credit. It also helps have credit, so you can use it online and not have to go in store.

You can't load anything from GS through a VPN if you have one running.

I'm alright paying an extra $10 for the Switch tax.  I just don't want to pay $100 for the LRG version scalpers.

I thought LRG were no longer limited to a predetermined number?  Last 2 I bought (SW Episode I Racer and Scott Pilgrim) were open for pre-order for so many weeks to as many people as wanted them.  How is there still sufficient excess demand to create a scalpers market so soon?
