Re: Is Gamestop Evil? The Good, The Bad and The Ugly
lolol I never pre-order shit
joke all you want about the warranty, but there are a few things I never mind purchasing warranties on as long as it covers accidental damage. Namely DJ Headphones, DJ mixers, and optical media. If it's $2 to warranty it for a couple years, including if my cat decides to attack the shit out of it, that's a good investment IMO. On that note, Best Buy was dumb enough to warranty a $300+ DJ mixer for 3 years for $30. That's a great investment, given the faders short out quicker that that under normal usage, let alone in a club. If some idiot decides to spill a drink on my mixer, I get a new one for free.
Right now, I'm ahead over $2000 on warranties and insurance this year. Not too shabby if you ask me.

Need FreeMCboot? I'll install it on your PS2 Memory Card for free if you cover postage both ways.

Wait, discs should be in the case, in the system, or in your hand transitioning between the two and exactly nowhere else. Does your cat see shiny and come flying out of the room for a sneak attack in those precious few seconds?skate323k137 wrote:including if my cat decides to attack the shit out of it, that's a good investment IMO.

I just got a new kitten that's like 10 weeks old, so he very well could. Dude is a freaking ninja, though not the smartest ninja. He ran head first into the glass door of my entertainment center last night, like a bird hitting a window lol

Gamestop employees are complete idiots, I stormed out of there when they told me that a copy of Bit.Trip Saga for the 3ds wasn't shrinkwrapped, placed a tamper sticker on it and considered it new.
