DSi XL!
May 18, 2015

Hello, I just wanted to put this out there that yes, they do screw you over *twice*. How you ask? Well it's simple, when you trade in games or devices they will screw you over and give you $20 for a XBox 360 (S) which they go and sell for $75. Then they screw you over when you're buying. How? C'mon, haven't you bought something from this place? Well, I got a DSi XL for $75 with tax which they will give you $30 store credit. I'm not sure if I got screwed over or not but my DSi XL was in beautiful shape.

And fair prices! If you're looking for a good / great selection of used games, then Gamestop will probably be your favorite store :)

Horrible
May 8, 2015

What a rude lying business, I will never buy from them again and I suggest you do the same. They are rude to their own staff, treat them like dirt and such. And no, I never worked there, this is from many observations.

Kids love it
May 4, 2015

My son loves it because you can sell the games you're tired of, and you can pay in advance and get a new game coming out right away.

I liked it a lot better than shipping a gift card, because i had it quicker. I just don't like how you can't buy gift cards with other gift cards

Gamestop
March 30, 2015

GameStop is a good store. They have everything that I love which is video games. The reason I'm reviewing this store because this is one of my favorite stores. The reasons I like this store are I like what they sell, their location, and their availability. I will give GameStop a nine out of ten review over all.
The first reason I like it is what they sell. The first thing they sell are video games, and that's all I play is video games, so it's a perfect store for me. The other things they sell are consoles, and they are always up to date with them, and that is good thing. The next things they sell are accessories for them, and some examples are game cleaner, console covers, and cases for ds games. I will give a rating for what they sell a ten out of ten.
The next reason is their location. The closest one to me is in Charlottesville, VA, and it's roughly thirty to forty minutes away. They also have stores all over the Unites States. They have very few in other places around the world. They would even have two in the same city. I will give their location a review rating of nine out of ten, because they need to make a new one more closer to me and more location.
The last reason is their availability. One way to access the store is that you can walk in the store, and buy stuff. They have at least one hundred games, 40 consoles, and three hundred or more things for games and consoles. You can also go online and buy stuff by them shipping it to you or by you going and picking up. You can also buy pre-owned things or trade in your game or whatever for something new or used. When you buy things online, you must have a credit or debit card to buy things online. So I will give this a review of ten out of ten.
The best parts of GameStop are what they sell, their location, and even their availability. I like this store because they only sell what I love. One last thing is that you can buy used video games which are way cheaper than new ones. So overall I will give GameStop a review of nine out of ten. So hopefully GameStop can fix these little problems.

This is a great gift card for tween or teenage boys. I love that it can be used online or in stores. My boys used the card to buy Xbox points from the Game Stop online store. The code we provided immediately upon purchase.

Refurbished Xbox
March 16, 2015

Do not bother buying a refurbished Xbox from Gamestop.com. I did and it broke down inside of six months... I hate to admit being a gluten for punishment but it has happened twice.

They are always more than willing to help a customer, and nearly always have what I need in stock. Their prices are definitely the best because they have both used and new games. If they don't, they will point you to the closest store that does with a smile.

Thanks gamestop for making my life easier! I have three boys and they are all into video games ( what kid isn't). Your shipping is so fast! I like the idea that if my kids want the game now I can order it online and pick the game up right at gamestop that day! Thanks!

They rip you off on game buy backs, better off selling online
