Literally a used Switch game in a big, ridiculous bag with a “New” sticker on it. Imagine going into a GameStop with a game in a bag like this and convincing them to give you credit for it as “New”.

Don’t buy online from GameStop. Actually, just don’t buy from GameStop.

GameStop is trash.

Yup. And none of this is a surprise or new revelation - they've been trash the whole fucking time. Some folks just got so into their 'big short' fanfic that they thought keeping this company alive would be fun and profitable.

hopefully they had fun. it's gonna crater sooner or later thanks to their business practices, and thank goodness. Mom & Pop shops like Pink Gorilla are way better any day.
