Be me. Decided to get a Switch so I can play Zelda BOTW, Mario Deluxe U, Mario Odyssey, Mario Cart. Switch V2 is out so, the time is now. I go to Gamestop. Zelda is $59.99 new. Its $54.99 USED. So I go to Walmart in the same parking lot. Brand new Zelda BOTW is $49.99. I ended up buying Zelda for $39.99 at a pawn shop. WTH Gamestop??? I wanted to help them by buying from them, since I know they're circling the drain.
I still need to actually buy the console though. Where should I buy? Walmart?
I reccomend Best Buy if you care about how the workers treat you because they are so nice, Walmart if it's close to you and Walmart actually has a very great and affordable care plan for switches. I believe mine was 15-20 dollars and it covers it from anything for a year or 2.
As for gamestop, yeah, they have been in the gutter for a long time. Why would anyone every buy a preowned game from them. They are just simply too greedy and no overhead or margins can justify it. They pay 7 bucks for those games, 12 at most and then put them up for 48.99-55 dollars when the new copy is 59.99. Profit is one thing but being shady is another. They could make their profits and sell 20x as much as they do if they actually cared.
