Just got kicked out of Gamestop for calling out a lying employee over FF XV

>Just got kicked out of Gamestop for calling out a lying employee over FF XV

Was looking around before I got my pre-order of FF XV and I saw another guy getting his pre-order as well. The employee goes to him "Would you like the season pass." The man said "No"

The employee then tells the man that the season pass includes 3 separate stories and one of them lets you play as Luna. I told the man that the gamestop employee was a liar and that people did not know exactly what the season pass would include. The man thanked me and again said NO to the season pass. Afterwards, I was asked to immediately leave the property, but they did at least give me my game first that I had paid for.

Stuff like this is why gamestop is a bad company

Sounds like you made it more difficult for the employees to do their job.

Awesome facebook post, where do I Like it?

They get tracked on how many passes they sell

You were a dick to that employee for no reason.

Did the whole store clap for you as well?

I hate having to sell season passes. I don't know who the fuck Luna is yet, why would I care that I get to play as her?

>v will defend gamestop now just to be omega level contrarian to the OP

we're all faggots, but gamestop really is the worst

Where is the "upvote" button on this webpage?

>getting involved with a low information customer and disrupting business rather than letting customer learn on his own

Literally SJW tier

Fuck you my story is better
>Go to Gamestop to buy Pokemon Sun
>Browse through the game wall, don't see the game

>"Sure let me go get one"

>I ask her why

>Open the door, get on the floor, everybody walk the dinosaur

>an employee wasn't able to scam someone into purchasing dlc
waaaaaaaaaaaa

t. clapping burger

this whole thread is amerifat as fuck. is it because you all secretly imagine you could be the swindlers and that you're not a bunch of uninformed cucks?

I don't get that last part

It's an ancient meme

how is calling someone out on a blatant lie being a dick? employee is a faggot for doing it and OP is an ever bigger faggot for caring enough to post this shit on Sup Forums.

>I told the man that the gamestop employee was a liar
You could have handled the situation so much better.

>Order FFXV Deluxe Edition from Best Buy
>Use GCU so it's $72 shipped
>They also throw me a $10 coupon for preordering so its really $62 shipped
>Game arrives a day before release
Why do people still shop at GameStop?

Deliberately misleading customers is not in his job description

whew lad at least you didn't find out you were a bear in the end.

The only gamestop stories worth reading desu.

Good on ya' lad. Keep on.
I remember the last time I stuck it to that gutter hole of a shop. I was in me teen years but I had my wits about me on this occasion. Gamestop manager gave me a chipped disc, brand new Skyrim, 60 medallions, and when I came to return it he turned me down flat; says I had the game for a week and shoulda bought the warranty. Next week, I broke the game clean in two, right down the middle, using a solution of ink and glue to hide the crack's tell. I brought to the store but aye! There was a different merchant on the poop. Fool takes the disc and checks it up and down without bat'n eye. I got my $60 dollars and took my leave. When I turned the corner to the horizon, I could see out of the corner of my eye, two of the clerks storm out of the store, cocking their necks east and west like they've seen death herself. Someone lost their legs that day. And I don't regret it one slog.

>not reporting him to the manager and getting him fired

why?

>walk into GameStop with 8 assorted Wii-U, DS, and 3DS games that I copied to my hacked systems before I left
>they give me $180 for them
>I buy 10 PS4 games for $10 each and a PS+ 12 month card for $50
>get 3 of them free with buy 2 get 1 free deal
>Get $10 more in store credit from points for buying/selling used games

I never went to Gamestop before last week. It's not so bad unless you try to buy new. I heard they open games and still sell them as "new", so fuck that.

Checked

I mean I still could, I dont want to see anyone lose a job though dunno I felt I did what was needed

Because the manager is in on it.

Gotta get sales somehow

deliberately misleading customers is ABSOLUTELY in the job description. There is no other explanation for why every single gamestop employee does it then.

Good for you OP. the employees will flat out lie to customer just to make a sale and get Good boy points from the managers when there review comes in. That or they're uninformed.

Maybe the employee just misunderstood what would be in the season pass, Sup Forums thinks everyone is out to pull a scam.

GameStop is absolutely rapeable if you know what you're doing, especially during the 50% extra trade credit weekends.
Got my PS4 for $120 that way when it first came out.

What's funny is that Gamestop will sometimes tell their employees details about games before they're announced, whether through marketing that comes in early or otherwise, it happens at least two or three times a year.
They gave details about the Bamham Nigga season pass before anywhere else, and they showed off Halo 5 and MGSV cutscenes in the stores before open that weren't online yet.
As far as FFXV, I dunno how much they know, but he may have been telling the truth. Essentially, fuck you.

>reading with a scottish accent

If that was your intention, you succeeded user

It actually kind of is. Thats how working in sales work.

>tfw the deluxe edition was $120 CAD and is sold out fucking everywhere

The regular edition is $80 here. At least it was only $63 on Amazon prime h-h-haha.....

>tfw my EB Games is now 60% shitty "collectibles" and 10% used cellphones now with barely any games

>useless warranties
>gamestop credit card
>shitty pre-order bonuses

I read it in a dwarf voice

>work for Best Buy
>this is literally what we are told to do

found the autist

>They also throw me a $10 coupon for preordering so its really $62 shipped
no, more like $72 shipped.

Yea, I got $35 for Mario Maker and Smash. I only paid $48 for them new with Amazon Prime so I basically paid $12 to rent them for over a year. I got $22 for one of the Layton games that I only paid $25 for on Ebay.

They always ask me like 7 fucking times if I want the one year warranty. Like I know they get commission off it but holy fuck.

Who even has discs break? It's only ever a problem with cartridges

Mind your own fucking business user.

>OP GOES TO GAME STOP AND HAS A CHIMPOUT

>GETS KICKED OUT

ICANT BELIIVE THEY FUCKING KICKED ME OUT FUCKING SHITTY COMPANY

shut the fuck up op

>saw some little ten year old shit get pissed off when the GS employee talked his mom out of buying GTAV for him the other day

Thanks GS bro, keep those fuckers in their place

You got a sauce on that? asking for a friend.

false advertisement is illegal

No you don't and no it isn't. In the small chance you do and it is, your sales team is garbage.

those aren't blatant lies

Businesses exist to make money, not cater to spergs like you.

Who the fuck still goes to Gamestop anyway? I haven't stepped foot in one since probably 05.

There are times when you can literally buy a game from redbox, target, or best buy though for 5-10 bux and trade it to GS for 20-25. At the same time they'll only offer you like $5 for actually decent games that people want. They're literal morons sometimes.

Would u hit it? took this pic of a girl at GS

U SNULZ U LULZ maplefag

>SpyCam
how would anyone figure out you got a secret Remote Control Car with a camera on it?

its an app for the phone

>thinking anyone at Gamestop gets commission
What they get is to keep their miserable minimum wage jobs.

He's just trying to get more money out of the idiots who bought FFXV is all

you ever been to a gamestop before, user?

>no ass

nah B

she has nice feet

that's literally the definition of marketing, you retard

But it's not false advertising. There are articles stating that Square Enix has plans to maybe have one of the season pass dlcs let you play as Luna. You just gotta stretch the truth to get sales mate. Sorry that's how the world works.

no it isnt you're thinking of pyramid marketing stupid

You know gamestop sucks shit but I couldn't be bothered to get upset enough to say anything in that situation. Who even plays attention to that shit?

Yeah, and user's delivery was very bad

marketing is about putting your product in the most positive light, not blatantly lying about what it is you assmongrel

>gamestop is the worst
no doubt, but having once worked retail i can imagine the OTHER side of the story. autistic, beta as fuck OP snapped and thought he pulled a heroic alpha move by "achshually"-ing the innocent, misinformed employee when in "achshuality" he was being a dick and interfered in a business transaction that didn't concern him

He knew what he was doing, I could tell by his tone.

then congratulations on being right, enjoy your ban

Ill take my business elsewhere

>why are you trying to help this man out? I'm trying to do business here!

It seems like they only do that after a certain point for inventory control reasons. I just bought the new Star Ocean and Atelier last Friday and Atelier was still NIB with shrink wrap, while Star Ocean was sleeved. So if you really want a new, sealed copy, you should probably buy within a couple of months of release.

>Who even has discs break?

Children

you got thrown out for being an autistic shit disturber

They're making an attempt to diversify their sales base. Not sure if Pop figures were the way to go on that. Maybe if they stocked figmas and prize figures and art books it's be one thing, but they mostly carry those Pops(seriously, even the managers fucking hate them) and random bullshit like puzzles and mystery figures.

I was right, he was a swindler and liar

lurk before posting

So basically... we're having this thread now instead of a thread in a year where someone starts bitching about how GS told them Luna would be playable with the Season pass

yes, yes it is. you have clearly never worked in sales. its 100 percent trying to convince people they want shit they dont want and need shit they dont need. that is by definition misleading.

Good on you OP. I can't believe people are getting mad at you for having common human decency and helping someone out that was being lied to.

yoo this reminds me

I saw a girl on the elevator take a picture of the fat guy next to her and text it to someone

Can confirm that this man is a liar. Seeing as how I've worked in two best buy stores. If it is, your store management are a bunch of shit heads and should be fired.

Good for you m8. Employees in sales should learn how to adjust when a pitch backfires, if they care about their job.

Who was in the wrong here?

>I heard they open games and still sell them as "new", so fuck that.
They do that to one single copy for the sake of having representation on the wall.

>Sonics arms are not blue

i miss when Sup Forums was fun

>shilling a game to a customer since it's my fucking job
>some fat obese smelly neckbeard comes and corrects me

What a fucking autist. I hope you made this thread to trigger me because you got me so damn angry. You don't know anything about social etiquette. Leave them be. Don't throw accusatory statements at people you don't know. I can't believe I have to tell you this, but you're basically the equivalent of some fat guy with tourettes who can't stop saying "fuck" under his breath. A complete social landmine.

I got the Deluxe Edition.

Do I not get a Season Pass? I thought it came with it. The dude certainly tried to sell me one.

>proessional in the industry tells customer some unclassified but as of yet not publically released infromation in a privite conversation

>OP with his blue hair rolls into gamestop on his powerscooter and buys the newest weebshit with his neet bucks

>he easedrops on the conversation and concerned someone might buy the pass and play as his waifu "luna" being crying and shitting his pants in the store causing everyone to flee

>banned from gamestop and complains about it on chinese image board.

those autism shoes are yuck

Boy, you're going to feel like a real asshole when they announce Luna as a playable character in a story DLC.

>Gamestop in 2016
If you wanna get physical copies, just hit Amazon. Unless you're one of those retards who constantly trades in your games, there's no reason to use gamestop

>waiting days if not weeks and possibly paying for shipping when you can just drive 5 minutes to a store buy a copy and start playing

Which ones?

check it out Sup Forums, 2009 is here

If you have a little kid(s), those warranties are a fucking life-saver.

I missed the instantly teleport physical copies of games to your house machines invention.

>going to gamestop
why do people still do this?


Even their used shit cost more than the unused version online
