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.

probably an online order.

the fact that GS sells shit in this state speaks more about their cocksucker business; the idea that you're standing up for it - stonkdweeb adherent lol. get a fucking life.

it was a company circling the drain for great reason before it got saved by a bunch of reddit dweebs. enjoy your movie, I strongly doubt your hodls will be worth it lol

ROFL. How did people from Reddit “save” GameStop? That’s the dumbest thing I’ve read so far in this thread.

GameStop was going to be shorted into failing. Reddit legitimately saved the company from being liquidated with the whole WSB stuff.

They’ll probably still fail since they have a failing business model, but they were absolutely propped up by Reddit.

Geez, who hurt you?

I'd argue, as long as there are "cocksuckers" that keep buying from them, regardless of these posts (I've seen at least 10 or 20 over the past years), there is very much a market to service. Just capitalisticly speaking.
