Two GameStop locations in my area have since closed down. One was in a mall that I frequented a lot.
I stopped going to buy new games from GameStop after they had the stuff already opened and when I asked for a new, sealed in box copy of the game, I was told "That's how we get new games, they come already opened for customer convenience."
Also didn't like how I was constantly followed, asked if I needed help, asked if I wanted x game. And the constant asking at the register, "do you want x pre-ordered?" "do you want protection for $xx.xxx?" "do you have a rewards card with us? If not, do you want one?" Even when I went to get the exclusive Pokemon game code cards to get special Pokemon, I was always asked if I wanted to pre-order a game or if I wanted a new game like it was required for me to purchase something in order to get the Pokemon game card.
Also I have heard horror stories of how employees were treated as well, another reason why I stopped buying at GameStop.
