they always ask if you're 'sure' that you don't want the warranty. That puts me into 'just give me the fucking game' mode

Hey, did I mention that I'm about to go fire up Gears of War, which I have and Doombrain doesn't, on my 60" HDTV?

Sometimes I try to have fun with it and ask what the warranty does and act interested, ask some what if questions, make sure that I am wasting THEIR time, then say nah i don't need it.

After I get the receipt i'll be like, hey it's not too late for that warrany is it?

I just got an automated phonecall from GameStop. They wanted some feedback on my last visit to their store. I just hung up on the bitch. Fuck that. I only bought a fucking game from em, and yet they act like I bought a damn house...

its lame that they have your phone info.

lets face it, EB/gamestop are dbags. i try to buy games only from places like Fry's or some smaller places i know of around here.

Post by **xer0s** » Fri Nov 10, 2006 1:09 am

I dunno. I seem to have gotten my game before the majority of the public, so I think I'll let it slide and keep my business with them.

nah, one wouldn't take it in the ass and the other couldn't reach her nipples with her tongue.

When they ask you for phone info just say no. Remember, they're fucking name tag wearing register jockies. You're better than them in every way. They arent gonna leap over the counter and take your game back for refusing.

You fucking retard... first off, you dont even have it pre-orded, second.. you dont own a 360.. third, the whole fucking internet is talking about the delay on the shipments.

No, retard.. its not just you.

fucking hell

Um yes. GS corp has been having fedex issues lately.. COD3 also was lost in shipping as well. Facts = Straight

As for the people who dont preorder. IF your going to buy it, fucking preorder. Yes, some idiots will say "zomg itll be totally not possible to just walk in and get bla" but fact is. stores like EB/GS get their allocation based on preorders.. if we get 0 preorders we get a total of 5 copys of a game most of the time.. "Big" releases. 10.

If we need a phone number for something, IE a preorder, and you say no. We say ok then bye. Same with trade ins. If you trade shit in, its a fucking LAW to take your info. Trading stolen goods, dur.

No ID? want cash? To bad, GTFO.

Obviously. I wasn't talking about special circumstances. Best Buy asks for shit every time you buy something.
