Thinking I will take advantage of Days of Play once more before the offer ends tomorrow. Going to trade a DualShock 4 that is iffy on the left stick clicking and pick up a new controller for about $25 after the trade in.

Just had a ridiculous experience. Tried to do the $2 system deal but was denied by the employee 'because that must be a glitch. It shouldn't count as a system'...ok. Then tried trading in a DS, but the POS had a wildly different total than the app value I looked up just before going in. Was told they don't take customer app values because 'some people code fake apps to look just like the GS app to rip them off'... I think that's enough Gamestop for awhile.


Grill their ass on the review. I get being apprehensive but he was being too much of a dick.

Found a copy of Minecraft story mode for Wii U and I was shocked that it had a 4.99 price tag on it. When I brought it to the counter it rang up as 19.99 and I realized that someone had just put the wrong game sticker on it for the front. The employee not only honored the 4.99 price but he manually adjusted everything else so I could get the for 4 for $10 with it. Also, when I entered the store, the 1st thing he said to me was "Thanks for leaving that survey for me last week. We only had 3 total all week."

TLDR: Do the surveys

There used to be a link where you could check the cumulative total of all unspent trade credit currently associated with your account. Does anyone know that link? And was it usually regarded as accurate?

Thanks in advance!

The survey printouts are anonymous.  I put something in the comments section about what he did, and he remembered it was me.  I come in frequently and he's my favorite employee. 

 

Each week, the store gets a printout of their survey results with their scores and what was said in the comment area.

Why? Is it very inaccurate? I don't intend to convert the credit...just to see how much they think I have.

Some issue where it was erasing all of the users giftcard balances to zero. Huge mess. Like someone said, avoid at all costs.

Do you use the same password for your email? The scammers charge extra for accounts with email access, because they can log into your email and delete the notification.

Not at all. My email password is randomly generated through my password manager. I don't even know it.

I've never asked for something like this until today. There was an item that I really wanted that is unavailable on the website and I noticed that a store in another state had it. My guy called them and they are shipping it to my store for me to purchase. Another great survey coming from me when I get it.

Store to store shipping is still a thing? The guys in my area told me the company doesn't do that anymore. My area has got to be wack as hell.

I guess it depends on who is running your store. Thankfully the people at mine are always very nice and said if there's anything else I ever wanted to let him know and he would get it on the way.

Some stores won't do it because the shipping store will often dump crap that they cant sell on the receiving store.

the first store I showed him that had the item in stock, he said there's no point in asking them because it was a ThinkGeek store and they never send anything to Gamestop

Thanks to y'all for the recent tips on the 4 for $10 flips AND the $2 VR headset counting as a console purchase with 2+ preowned games being 25% off. I found NUMEROUS headsets so it was easy to take advantage of that sweet deal.

 

I was able to get Fallout 4 for $4.73, Prey for $6.75 (LOVING IT, def recommend), and Fallout 76 for $13.50 (was interested in this with all the new content incoming.) Obviously I also had to pay for the $2 VR headset, but even then, the amount I made from the flips, plus the amount I saved on the 25% off used games made it absolutely worth it. I actually picked up two copies of 76 so me and a bud could play. SO it really was worth all the back and forth and hunting for the headset.

 

As always, y'all are the best and I thank you for helping out a poor grad student who sometimes has time for gaming haha.

 

Keep it up, I appreciate you all.

Does GameStop sell 12 month EA Access subs?

I know for a fact that in the past their system has automatically generated reward certificates on a timed basis - effectively wasting 25Kish points I had stored.  I complained in passing to a nearby store manager about it and was just told that I'd have to keep up on it, as their system is continually updating (getting worse, he should have said).

I'm almost certain that I looked through my past emails and was given no notice that the above had happened, also.  I believe it was just done internally on their website, and no notifications were given solely to blow through the points of cheap-asses like myself.

Don't being pro/elite member allow you to bank point?

Yeah they can sell it to you at the register. Prints on receipt not a physical card.
