GameStop #547

I mean its in a horrible location with horrible parking. The employees are cool enough. It is just so much better than the Mall (THE HIP) gamestop down Harlem and better than Video Games. Also nothing in the area in open 24 hours or has a lot of releases for midnight games, this is the place to go.
Criticism would be the checkout line. unnecessary «velvet» rope maze for the 1 customer at a time to walk around.

This is the worst Gamestop ever. I generally always enjoy being at game store but this place is just bad. Very unfriendly service. Around 3pm I walked in and I mention to a Caucasian male about 6ft tall I wanted to purchase a Ps4 but that I wanted to trade in some ps3 controllers for store credit before my purchase. He responded he will only take them if they’re in good condition. I continued showing him the controllers and he complaint that they were too dusty and that it was going to take him to long to clean them. After rejecting my controllers he said he couldn’t help me. Is this the kinda service you should expect after mentioning I wanted to spend almost $ 500 dollars??(Buy a PS4)

ok for all thos of you that dont know it but most of the games they buy from you they go and sell for double or some times triple the amount. is great to buy from but sell online if you can.

Knowledgable, quick, excellent service. Nice people behind the counter, answered all questions efficiently and fully. Better than the GameStop at the HIP, thats for sure.

Pretty much your typical game stop, or so I thought.
Walked in one day before I had to go to work. I’m short. Like 4’10. I’m asian, so I’m short. But not like I look like a 5 yr old. A registered nurse, I walked in with my scrubs on. I was in a rush so I even had my badge on. At the bottom, it says N U R S E. I was picking up… i dunno. Maybe Oblivion for PS3.
I’ve played WoW. I’ve had gaming consoles since I was a baby. Atari, NES, SNES, up to now the 360 and PS3, and Wii. You name it. — I picked up the game, walked to the register.
Guy behind the counter doesn’t pay any mind or attention to me. He’s chatting up another customer standing at the counter, who had nothing in his hands. From my view, looks like the customer was just milking information about a game or something or another. The other employee in the store was helping someone else out. I wait 3 minutes of being completely ignored and unacknowledged… and can’t wait any more.
I mean… I dunno. You think you’d wanna help the customer who’s actually wanting to buy something. Makes sense, right? Anyway, get this. He starts ringing me out. Asks for my ID since I’m paying with credit card. $ 20 game. Well… ok. I comply. So he gives my ID back. I put it away. He clicks some buttons and asks again, «Oh can I see your ID again? The rating is for 17 and up.»
Are you freaking kidding me!!! I say, «No. You already saw my ID. You don’t need to see it again.» What credit card does a 16yr old have? the card and ID both have my name. He says dumbly, «oh… uh. ok.» I’m wearing nursing scrubs and wearing a Nurse badge for crying outloud!!! Yeah, I’m short but… what, a «16 year old «high school student rocking hospital gear? Huh. I don’t think many people would ID a cop walking into dunkin donuts for a coffee paying with a credit card, yanno?
It’s not like it’s liquor. or gambling at the casino. But whatever. I guess to some people, suggestive themes and/​or violence are a dangerous no-​no for someone who walks around with a pair of breasts every day, and works to save lives for a living.
Soo… Yeah I’m sticking with the gamestop on Touhy. They like to work while they’re at work and acknowledge customers with breasts.

Video Games galore, it’s my kind of candy store. I remember when this location was a Funcoland, before they magically (they changed the sign) transformed into the now familiar GameStop, seen before us. I have always liked going into GameStop, not just because I’m an avid gamer, but because the clerks are usually up to date on the hottest new games or latest coming titles. Back in the day when I had more time, I’d stop by more often. Although, I do make the trip over there every once in a while to get the newest game release. The store is a bit old, but they are generally well stocked in a variety of titles, plus there is plenty of parking.
