Tales from Gamestop

Just play along with them, it makes it so much less dragging. I've learned to find humour in the fake enthusiasm of corporate employees. This best is when you find a way to naturally segue into pointing out how strange it is that they would enjoy interacting with literal mouth-breathers as part of a part-time retail position. I prefer getting an employee who doesn't bother with the fake smiles and such, though. Their obvious depression and resentment for the customer is not only honest, but makes for some amusing interactions.

You forgot to post FUCKING GAMESTOP!

The part where i cringed the most was when you said you are 25 and still living with your parents

In most of asia is completely normal to still live with your parents past 25.
Especially japan.

How do you read his brother noticing the box and project living with your parents into his post?

Get her number and fuck her dude. Why are you playing around?

First of all, who cares that it’s not in an official box? It’s just plastic.

This is some impressive cuckoldry right here. Normally you’re supposed to make yourself look good in things that didn’t happen thread.

Cute little story, user.

T. Never took a cashier home for a bottle of cheap wine and spaghetti o’s.

>shopping at gamestop

I don't understand why the fuck do people do this? does your area not have a best buy/wal mart/target/etc? people on the internet act like gamestop is the only place in the world that sells video games and I don't fucking understand it..

If you're even a little above average women flirt with you wherever you go, I've had to stop eating at alot of places because I've turned down the girls working there, it's annoying.

Yeah probably. They should have bought games from customers for half of what they sell them instead of nickle-and-dime-ing us.

It's only worth going to abuse some of the trade-in promos they offer occasionally.

No I don't have Best Buy or Targert, and Wal-Mart doesn't have everything.

I'll take insecure white for $1000 Alex.

>work open to 1
>gamestop is typically open at 9 or 10
How do you manage to find enough to complain about in your 3-4 hour shift?

The trend in the market towards digital downloads makes that almost irrelevant. It's just an extra bit of karmic retribution.

That pre-order box is probably worth more. Also, have sex incel

>Only one there from open till 1
This would imply that a the closing person works from 1 till 9, with several hours of overlap in the middle. This is a standard retail schedule.

walmart literally says new switch releases at $50

stop lying

Why does everyone on this site overestimate the value of sex so much? Why the fuck would anyone gas up some rando from gamestop for the possibility of getting your dick wet?

Right on fuck those nigs.

Gamestop stories? Okay.

At least you tried to save that kid's day.

This one too you fucking autist. How pathetic are you to have saved these?

? The last time i posted this one was when it happened back in 2015. Are you saying someone actually saved it and doccumented it?

How pathetic are you to keep hanging around fucking gamestop story threads to recognize said stories?

>the dumb bitch put the game in one of the god damn store display pre order boxes
Were you buying a used copy? Those shit should already come inside a case and wrapped.

This
What a goddamn waste of time

Sometimes when I'm standing in the middle of a crowded place, I'll literally shout out "CHARLOTTE!" and take two steps back. Then I'll shout "JOHANTHAN" and take two steps forward.

Then i'll speed up until i'm moonwalking backwards and forwards, almost shuffling my feet in a dance screaming CHARLO-JOHNATHA-CHARLO-JOHANTAHA-CHAR-JOHN-CHAR-JOHNCHARJOHNCHARJOHNCHARLOTTE

Then i'll stop cold, and simply step back into the shadows

You spam them every fucking thread you pathetic autist.

Obviously. Who else would go to an animal adoption center?

>Gamestop
>New

No such thing. They take the games out of the shrink wrap to store them behind the counter to prevent theft and leave the display copies on the shelves. When you buy new they literally fish out the game cart/disc from the back drawers to put it in the case again and give it to you.

To be fair, PBR is still really fucking good even with offline rental teams.

Say it without buzzwords, I stopped reading after the third.

Actually I don't since I haven't been on Yea Forums in 7 months. so the more likely scenario is some "Autist" as you claim copied them and spams them every thread on my behalf.

>anyone who doesn’t fantasize about being victimized is a nigger (the type of person I fantasize about)
Kek. I wasn’t expecting Anthony Burch in this thread, but I got two of them. Replace any reference to nigs with “gamergater” and it’s the exact brand of cuck. Man this place has gotten soft.

Now, that's not true. I work at gamestop and we store the new games inside a cabinet. We don't even touch the display cases unless the customer brings it to the checkout.

>go to EB Games
>ask if they have something in stock
>qt girl at counter
>she opens her mouth to speak and reveals the most fucked up teeth ever

Bros

>defending niggers
You are right, this place HAS gotten soft.

Actually you do and are pretending you don't now you pathetic fuck. Delete the .txt file where you save these

your mistake was taking the gutted copy. when you buy a new game and they grab something that isn't shrinkwrapped you say "excuse me i asked for a NEW copy" and when they don't have it you turn 360 degrees and walk away to another gamestop

What kind of Gamestop are you going to?

>be me about 8
>see movie game
>think about having my mom purchase it
>gamestop employee warns because it has the name of a movie it isnt a game but a literal movie.
>fuck that i want a game
>for years of my life i was convinced that they literally just sold fucking movies on game discs
>thank you game stop employee for helping me not buy shitty games.

Rekt xD

they do this for one or two copies so they have a shelf display case, most of their copies stay sealed.

That doesn’t seem right. I bought a game last week and they didn’t fiddle with anything, just handed me the game and I was off on my way.

what in the fuck are you talking about schizo?

Theres no way, this can’t possible be real. Most autistic thing I’ve seen at a GameStop was in middle school when I went to pick up my preordered Pokémon Black and saw a girl in a Pikachu onesie.

>she fangirls about SMT
>not a good thing
Oh wait, I forgot. Personafags have no taste

Did you fuck her?

what movie game user?

Why the fuck would you go to gamestop in 2019? There's like 6 other brick/mortar stores you could go to without having to deal with stupid bullshit.

Nah I wasn’t awakened yet so I just laughed awkwardly and went on

Get Hyrule Warriors on the Switch user

Idk but mines has big tits and always where's low cuts

GameStop hires those girls on purpose to attract fat neckbeards

>So when did you decide to buy online/digital copies only user?

Ps2 and ps3 were the only consoles i didnt hack, for the wii, psp, pc, switch, etc, I always pirated. I can barely remember what buying from a store is like

Btw user, wtf is wrong with you? Are you really getting nervous to talk to a girl? Are you 14?

I fugged a girl from GameStop, she had a nice butt and always flirted with me before we fugged

You have to be 18 or older to post on Yea Forums.

You're so fucking pathetic... Did it hurt you that much to talk to a girl?

This place is filled with jaded motherfuckers and basedboys

why user, it's his 18th birthday!

Even if they can be weird, I enjoy the excited female employees at game or pop culture stores. Nice to talk about the more “normie” games with someone who actually likes them

The manager hired me because he thought I was 16.
I'm 29.

Dis some noneuclidean lovecraft shit right here, damn.

It's Ariel.

We sometimes do that with the games that we don't have many copies of, no clue why they didn't hand you a new copy though.

Why are all sonicfags antisocial.

why is everyone on this board so obsessed with sex?

Nope don't know an Ariel, good luck with GameStop Virgins

The fact that they needed to put a brand new game in the box is a red flag on its own.

You also realize that GameStop isn't the only retailer who sells video games, right retard? Just shop somewhere else.

Please fuck me, user.

holy shit

They were too confused about why an "adult" was asking for kids toys.

Walmart has switch games for 50.you could have saved time and gotten it cheaper
