Dumbest thing a GameStop rep ever said to you?

Same here. I mean, most of the time the staff is ignorant of a lot of video game knowledge but I didn't know shit about lumber when I worked at lowes either. Its just a job. Gamestop probably doesn't want to hire smug nerdy assholes like us.

I'm wondering if the Gamestop hate is just a symptom of this board. Like is there a construction message board out there on the internet somewhere with a topic that says "Dumbest thing a Home Depot rep ever said to you?" And people come in and say "Yeah, I was checking out and the cashier said "hey, are you sure you don't need a 14' board?" And I just rolled my eyes at 'em because it was OBVIOUS I only needed a 12' board, clearly I should be working there instead."

Haha.

I have seen posts on places like OC.net about best buy employees and computer components but thats the only thing comparable.
 
Annoying Gamestop employees sounds like a much more common thing in the U.S than anywhere else. Most of the EB Games stores I've been to (Australia) have had pretty nice employees, who aren't really emotionally tied to any of the Sony/Nintendo/Microsoft.

The only time I've come across an annoying employee was when I tried to buy Guitar Hero World Tour on launch day, the guy just looked at his coworker, laughed and said 'you should have preordered', to which I said 'I did, at Target, for $50 less, but they're getting them tomorrow'. He then laughed and said "you shouldn't have preordered at a shoe store then" (the fuck?).

They ended up getting it at Target an hour later, so I just grabbed it from there.
 
I went to buy (and charged for) a new copy of Assassin's Creed Revelations Signature Edition and was sold a used copy with expired DLC codes instead. Their excuse: "It was our last one." Never got my money back.
 
"Welcome to gamestop, how can I help you?"

I've never been to a Gamestop as I'm not from the US of A and never traveled there
 
when brawl was rumored to be delayed...

I went into a GameStop just to "see" what they'd say. And the guy told me, "March 12th." I just looked at him and said, "where ever you get your sources from, they're wrong."

He said, "we get our information directly from Nintendo. It's March 12th."

I said, " *shakes head* you guys are GAMESTOP...you guys have like ZERO credibility."

He said, "whatever, dude...believe what you want."

I said, "tell me why I have a reservation ticket from another GameStop for February 10th?"

He said, "it was delayed...even Wal-Mart knows this!"

I said, "I just reserved it for February 10th from a GameStop from Rancho Cucamonga! (next city over to mine)" ( I didn't actually reserve it, my friend did)

He said, "they haven't been updated on the release date, yet"

I said, "I used to work for Toys R Us several years back" (in 1999 through 2002) "And they have the release date for February 10th. They even have actual printed reservation flyers and are hung next to the Wii games. Toys R Us has EXCLUSIVES they give out with Nintendo games. They are like the Cadillac of toy stores. They are reliable, always have been."

He said, "...okay..."

I said, "so don't feed people your bull**** lies and stop spreading these stupid rumors. You only lose credibility on your company's behalf and only add that much more hatred towards your stores. You rip people off, you buy their games for like pennies of what they're actually worth. You practically rob people, and sell games for WAY too much than they're actually worth."

He said, "we're actually the most trusted videogame retailer"

I said, "on by ignorant middle school kids who don't know any better... and you know what? I'm close friends with my old boss from Toys R Us. I worked in RZone (the videogame department), so I pretty much have more experience over you about how things work with retailers, truck loads, shipment dates, contract releases, etc."

He said, "And? I already told you we got our release date directly from Nintendo themselves, and we are a trusted company with reliable sources...how much more reliable can you get from Nintendo themselves?"

I said, "...just stop pulling **** outta your *** and be honest to the rest of these kids who are asking for Brawl. Because I pretty much already saw Toys R Us's shipment dates and their catalog of what's to be shipped to our store for the next 30 days. We're getting 105 copies of Brawl on the 5th of February, shipped from San Francisco...wherever San Francisco get them from, I have no idea."

He said, "........"

I said, "....yeah... These are some of the huge quirks of being an RZone worker for 2.5 years, building a close friendship with your manager, and working as a young 16 year old high school videogamer. And at 24, I still get these quirks of seeing my old store's shipment data sheets."

He said, ".... *looking and feeling pretty stupid* ....."

I said, "not only that, you noob. I'm going to be taking a copy home on the 5th of February because I CAN...because I'm not a douche...because I knew that I'd need this kind of quirk in the future so I made sure to build a strong bond between myself and my boss. They like me. I was the best worker they had, the most knowledgeable. It earned the trust with the company, and insight on their data, and early copies of whatever I want. So pretty much, I outted you and I'll make sure no one buys their copy of Brawl from you, you filthy rat. Have fun working for a company that rips off people. Have fun with your dead-end job, Mr. 29-year-old-balding-dude-who-likes-to-****-with-people's-emotions."

He just said, "whatever dude, whatever dude....whatever dude..." throughout the whole time I told him off.

I remained calm with a stern calm voice just telling this guy off the entire time. I think that irritated him the most, the fact that I wasn't the stereotypical obnoxious biggot customer demanding stuff.

A++++
 
Me: "Can I get God of War III?"

GSE: "For which system?"

Me: areyoufuckingkiddingmeface.jpg

There was a huge fucking display right behind you with Kratos and the HUGE FUCKING PS3 LOGO!
 
I only ever got angry when I was trading in a bunch of useless games at a gamestop, didn't want an EDGE card and was called stupid by the clerk for it.
 
It was surreal fighting with a gs employee, but his bullshit just makes transition easier since i wont have much need to shop at gamestop anymore.

Anyone better get ready for a fight when they ask to cancel a pre-order. Those are absolute death for a Gamestop employee because of GS' ridiculous policies. I have no idea how it's the employee's fault someone changes their mind, but the district managers treat employees like shit who lose pre-orders.

I always thought that was a BS policy to.
Whenever I preorder something at the store, I do try my best to not cancel it.
 
I never have problems with Gamestop and all of the employees are cool with me, especially the females.

I go in,

Want to preorder a game?

No, maybe next time.

Ok, let me know if you need anything.

That's normally it.

If you become a non creepy regular, the employees for the most part will end up knowing what works with you and what doesnt.
No need for them to push 5 different preorder when they know you'll be coming in a preorder what you want when the time comes.

At least the smaller stores I always went to were like that.
 
I avoid gamestop in general because of the "opened games sold as new" stuff, but the employees don't really bother me too much. I know they're not super happy to have to push a bunch of bullshit no one needs, it's just the nature of retail. Having spent my high school years cashiering at a grocery store, i can sympathize.
 
Plenty to choose from, but I was picking up Arkham Asylum on the cheap when the guy asked if I wanted to preorder Arkham City. I said I would play Arkham Asylum first to see if I liked it. He said, "Arkham City is supposed to be way better."

"Oh really, why is it going to be better?"
"Because it's open-world. Open world games are always better."

Awesome times. But this kind of stuff really isn't exclusive to Gamestop employees.
 
Me: I would like a copy of Dragon Age please.

GS guy: Why? Dragon Age II just came out.

Me: Because I want to play Dragon Age.

Had to argue 2 minutes before I finally get my copy.

"it's new, but it's just that it's open"

Also that! Argued for a bit once with the manager about how that copy of Blazblue Continuum Shift was not exactly new if it's open. I bought it anyway, really wanted to play. When I got home I found Blazblue Calamity Trigger in the box... Had to go back and it kinda proved my point to the manager.

However, almost all the time my experience is very smooth.
 
A Gamestop MORON said hello to me, so I stabbed him to death.

He was all "WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?"

I said, "I don't want your damn Power-Up Rewards card!"
 
Okay, people have to realize that this story is 100% true. It's not completely off-the-wall or anything, but this definitely happened. This concerns more something that I heard a GameStop rep say, but I still feel like it counts for the purposes of this topic.

So back in undergrad, one of my roommates and I decide to take a trip up to a GameStop that we didn't really go to that much. I completely forgot what we were looking for, but I think we were just killing time on a particularly slow Sunday evening. So I'm looking at PS3 games, and I overhear this particular conversation from a GameStop rep to a customer.

Rep: "So you heard about why Final Fantasy XIII is coming to the 360, right?"
Customer: "No, why is that?"
Rep: "Well, it turns out that Microsoft was not happy about the exclusivity deal. So they ended up suing both Sony and Square-Enix over it."
Customer: "Wait, really?"
Rep: "Oh yeah. The lawsuit made it so that Sony couldn't have exclusive Final Fantasy games anymore."

At this point, I motioned for my roommate to come over to my way. I pretty much only told him to listen to this guy. So he talks about the "lawsuit" some more. And I was like "one of us should talk to him." I declined to do so, because there was no fucking way I would be able to keep a straight face. My roommate decided to talk to the rep a little bit.

Roommate: "Oh, I overheard you talking about RPGs. What new RPGs are coming out?"
Rep: "Oh, well if you like Final Fantasy games, you should like Tales of games too. In fact, Tales of Vesperia 2 and Tales of the Abyss 2 should be coming out for the PS3 and the 360 in the near future."
Roommate: "Oh... Can I reserve those?"
Rep: "Oh no, no, those games are pretty secret, and they are not in the system yet. It's like the Dolphin 32X."
Roommate: "Uh... Tell me a little bit about this Dolphin 32X."
Rep: "Oh yeah, the Dolphin 32X is supposed to be SEGA's new console that is supposed to be coming out pretty soon. It's supposed to be more powerful than the PS3 and the 360 [Edit: Actually, I looked at an older post I made on this story; he said that the Dolphin 32X possessed the Giga Blast Processor]."
Roommate: "What... games have you heard would be coming out for it?"
Rep: "I have heard that some of the launch titles will include Knuckles Chaotix 2 and Sonic Adventure 3. You know, typical SEGA stuff. It also will have some RPGs on the system like Square-Enix stuff. I think SEGA was in on the Microsoft lawsuit against Final Fantasy exclusives too."
Roommate: "Well, can I reserve this?"
Rep: "No, it's not our system yet. But stay tuned for more news on the Dolphin 32X pretty soon."

At that point, we promptly left the store in utter disbelief and utterly hysterical.
 
Can't think of any off the top of my head, but when the ex-fiancee was trying to buy a copy of Assassin's Creed 1, the guy at the counter would just not stop hitting on her.

Even when I noticed and came up to her and said something like "Ready to head to dinner?", he gave me the stinkeye and KEPT ASKING HER REALLY CREEPY QUESTIONS. She mentioned she plays Just Dance to exercise (because she has no creep radar) and he actually asked what she wears when she does that.

We never went to that Gamestop again.
 
Like a month ago I went up to pick up some cheap sports game just to fill the summer void. Little did I know that their entire computer system was running really slow that day. So, I bring up my copy of my 5 dollar game to check out. He rings it up and apologizes that their system is running slow. No problem, I wasn't in a rush. He then goes, "well this is a great time to explain to you all our new promotions coming up.". I was being polite and not to stand their for an awkward amount of time just staring at the credit card machine I told him I would love to hear it.

Well, the guy pretty much laid out a power point presentation on how upgrading the reward zone card to the 15 dollar one would save me money. I asked him how much on the copy of the game I was buying. 25 cents. Yes. I would save money by paying an extra 14.75 to upgrade. I know if I shopped at ebgames enough it might of added to some type of savings in the long run, but I couldn't help but chuckle that he was trying to convince me that I would actually save some money that day. He also gave me a spew about how the NCAA game I bought was getting an update in 2 weeks and I should preorder now to guarantee my copy. I just politely told him that I was buying the older one because I just didn't feel like spending 60 dollars in 2 weeks. He actually was the most informed salesman I had ever ran into.

So, uh, What DOES she wear when she exercises?

(I have a similar story to this that involves a weird best buy mobile employee hitting on my wife)

Shit man, that reminds me of grade school. Kids came up with all sorts of shit like that to impress their friends.

I wouldn't have been able to hold back, your roommate did well, lol.
 
I honest to God had a Gamestop employee trying to tell my why Duke Nukem Forever was one of the best games EVER MADE. 90% of his talk kept eerily circling around to the fact that you could fling poop. He wasn't just joking like "you can fling poop. Best game ever lol" he was like " Oh my GOD dude you can fling POOP though! Its like they thought of everything!"

I just sat there in amazement waiting to see what he'd say next.

Same dude also trash talks everything popular from Assassin's Creed, to Call of Duty for being too comformist or something. Guy is certifiably unfit for giving gaming advice to anyone. Thankfully, this is the only exception in my area. I live in a really small nowhere area of WV and usually the guys that work at these places don't really say much past whatever is common knowledge so not a lot of stupid stuff gets said. Some are even pretty up to date. Course I only talk news/gaming business and not gaming preference stuff with these folks so who knows what most might suggest. The same can be said for most folks though.
 
"What pre-order bonus?"

I have a zero percent success rate at obtaining pre-order bonuses from the Gamestop in my hometown. They either act like they didn't know there was a pre-order bonus, or lie about how "Oh, it's in the box already."
 
I normally dont find myself in these situations but I once was looking for a fightstick so I stopped in at the Gamestop on my way home from work.

Asked the guy if they had one and he looked at me like I was speaking another language when I said "fightstick".

So I'm like, "you know those controllers that are kinda like arcade cabinet controls?"

He says, "Those dont exist, they dont make those." Doesnt even miss a beat.

I didnt even bother arguing it. I wasnt even mad either, just turned and left after saying thanks. Haha.
 
All these poor employees just doing their job for low wages and all these gaming database nerds roll into their stores and start pushing over magazine racks. I worked in a game shop for a number of years and actually knew what I was talking about. Made it much more fun to shatter people's knowledge with truth bombs of my own.

I went to pick up my pre-order copy of REVELAITONS (game only) at launch date.



Haha, the dude was clearly trying to get a sale on me, man. Sorry, but don't try to hit me with false information when I know my shit. I just want my damn game and get out!
[edit] Also, they ran out of the pre-order bonus RE:R 3DS cases that I was supposed to get..

// Roth

Nope they didn't run out, dude just told you that cause he probably wanted to hold one for himself. :p Specially if he tryed to pull the above on you.
 
Rep: "Is there anything you'd like to pre-order?"

Me: "No, I'm good thanks."

Rep: "Are you sure? There's lots of good stuff coming out."

Me: "No, I'm not interested in anything right now, when it get's closer to release I might pre-order..."

Rep: "Do you actually like video games?!"

Me (perturbed): "Um, yeah.. if I didn't why would I be in here buying this game?!"

Rep: "Well then you musn't like having a GameStop in this town then, huh?" (I live in small town with one store)

Me: "What!?"

Rep: "Your pre-orders help our store look good to management. Pre-orders improve the performance of our stock on the stock market. That in turn guarantees this store will be here for a long, long time, thus giving you maximum choice when it comes to buying games. It's also helps us employees in our performance reviews. Besides, you don't want to buy your games at Wal-Mart, do you!?"

Me: ... silent, looking at the rep somewhat dumbfounded, taking my receipt

Rep: Thanks for coming in, but next time remember what I said about pre-ordering something.

What's so bad about Wallmart? (not american).
 
Some of these stories are terrible. But not on Gamestops part. I just think hating Gamestop is the cool thing to do on this forum. Maybe Jersey just has the best Gamestops.
 
Is this real or a Dramatic Reading?

Dramatic reading of a post from SmashBoards, which ironically was made less than 24 hours before Dojo announced a delay like the employee he was trying to ridicule said. It's Fragmaster from Something Awful (pretty sure he made a similar video about that infamous FFXIII NeoGAF post).

Don't have GameStop here and never had problems with any game-focused store.
 
Dumb statements, inaccurate stuff, flat out lies, attempts to rip you off, poor treatment, anything.

Mine happened today. One of our Gamestops here just put out their Wii U promo materials and I decided to make some small talk about while I was pre-ordering NSMB 2. Boy was that a mistake:

Dumbest thing a customer has said to me while i was working at Gamestop

Wii U promo stuff clearly all over the place, im too damn tired to small talk with these fuckers just get what you need and go but here it is

Customer: "So I see you have the Wii U promo stuff out already?"
I realize he must be an idiot so i decide to have some fun with him, i was originally gonna so No, no we dont have any Wii U promo stuff out...but i thought id have a longer conversation with him.

Me: "Yeah, I'm still not convinced it's coming out this fall though. I'm thinking more like somewhere between December to March"

etc etc etc
 
I've only met at least two dickhead GS employees. The rest I've been cool with. Granted they know next to nothing about video games and the news surrounding it. Lol.
 
I've never really had a bad experience at an EB Games (Australian equivalent to GameStop, I think). I've never once been asked if I'd like to pre-order anything, though they do always ask me if I want to pay an extra $5 for damaged disc replacement but they never linger on it.

Every now and then I do run into the people who don't know anything about games and are just working there fo' tha skrilla. That's totally fine, but it makes me miss this brick and mortar store that used to be around here called DVD Crave. The same guy was always at the counter and he was super nice every time. My brother and I exclusively bought games there for years until it closed and we got to know the guy pretty well. He would actually give great game recommendations based on what we bought previously. I remember he gave us Metroid Prime and Gears of War a couple of days before release because we were such good customers.
 
This was one of the best experiences/laughs I had when I went to GameStop.

Mad Catz is based out of San Diego. So I was at one of our many local GameStop stores during the Street Fighter IV launch in Feb. of 2009.

I went into this GameStop store to see how our Street Fighter IV line of products were selling and lo and behold as I got in, someone was purchasing one of our Street Fighter IV standard edition FightSticks at the front counter.

I was listening to the store associate talk to the customer about Street Fighter IV and the FightStick in question. He was mentioning stuff such as:

"Yeah I've been to Mad Catz, a lot of the GameStop employees were actually part of the development of the Tournament Edition FightStick..."

"I went to the Mad Catz office personally and know the development team... Although they didn't take into consideration all of my changes. They didn't understand the intricacies like I do. Oh well..." or something like that...

So that's when I spoke up and questioned him on it. But I didn't want to reveal I worked for Mad Catz and I was one of the ones in charge of the SFIV line of products.

So he kept rambling as I fed him lines... I asked him what he would change etc. And it became very apparent that he did not know what he was talking about. So as I was leaving, I pull out my business card and handed it to him.

"Hey thanks for the information man. My name is Mark or 'MarkMan' from Mad Catz. I was one of the ones in charge of the sticks. I don't remember seeing you visit our office, but that's cool. If you have any more suggestions don't hesitate to email us. Also if any of your customers have any questions, send them my way, I know everything about them."

Followed by a smile ;)

Sometimes I'm too nice.

Did you then light your cigarette, flip into into a trash can, and walk away as the place burned?
 
"Wii U is coming out on December 3rd and will cost 499.98€. Wanna preorder?"

I even asked him if he was sure about this info as I hadn't heard it anywhere yet. His answer:

"I work here, I should know."
