I see these dire Gamestop forecasts and I have concern for my own small stakes in the chain.
Should I consolidate my credit and drop it on something soon to avoid any losses? How quickly can a chain close? Will they have new product and releases stocked? Can my store credit be forfeit at any time? Am I safe with reservations through, say, March's big releases? June's? Will the company see the launch of the next gen in November?
Are you also playing chicken with store credit, or can the chain turn itself around?
Will the top brass get golden parachutes when the time comes?
Will you miss an ecosystem without that trade-in option, or has the chain reaped what it's sewn with anti-consumer practices and aggressive takeovers?
I'd appreciate input from anyone with a lick of business acumen or knowledge of corporate bankruptcy / insolvency.
