Gamestop Prices (1 Viewer)

I was at Gamestop on the 30th and for f**k sake, the prices... Well to be fair the sh*t I bought was cheap for the content (19.99-29.99 for 50-200 hours of content is a steal!!!). But I digress. Anyway I took my nephew there to get A Way Out since he wanted it. The prices on most of the switch games were astronomical. Like Skyrim was 59.99 and Lets Go was the same, when I know its 49.99 at Walmart and 44.00 on Amazon... Back in the day, when GameCube was still relevant, you could get a new copy of Mario Party for 70.00 that included a free wireless controller; not now... it would be 3x that price.

Anyway. Is it me? Is Gamestop over priced? Do you shop there? Your thoughts?

There was a hot hipster cashier there that was wearing a Rock Lee headband and a fake diamond nose piercing... He sort of looked like Jim Caviezel from Passion of the Christ with shorter hair... but that's neither here nor there.

Haven't been in a Gamestop in a long time. For small electronics and games it's hard to beat Walmart and Amazon (as you mention). Target and Newegg are also worth checking out as they will sometimes have deals.

Their Funko Pops are overpriced, but not quite as high as Hot Topic; however, Hot Topic gives out the Hot Cash discount coupons for a future purchase.

i really only consider gamestop nowadays if they have an exclusive deal for something i'm interested in.

Thats true. The only thing I think they do better than department stores is if you are into trading card games. Particularly where I live, you have to go there, or a specialty store, to get Yu-Gi-Oh or Pokemon cards. Although, if you go to the dollar store they might, if you're lucky, have a pack of Yo-Kai Watch cards or old DBZ cards.
