A lot of people are Gamestop haters. Not really sure why? I have always had a great experience with Gamestop. And if I do have a problem, they are more than willing to work with me. And the dumb competitor commercials showing them pushing stuff on you, like DLC's and Game Protection. They don't push anything on you. They do ask though, which I find nice, because they may have something available I didn't even know about it.
This location is great. The staff is always nice and super helpful. They let me get in and out with no problems. If I want a little video game conversation, they are more than happy to discuss games with me and give recommendations.
The Pro Rewards membership is definitely worth it. 15 bucks a year and you get 10% off all used merchandise, plus 10% extra on anything you sell to them. You also get the 12 month subscription to Game Informer magazine. That is huge to me. I'm always excited to get my magazine. And you get rewards points for anything you buy or sell. I've traded in points for a cool Gears of War shirt. Been saving up the rest for a couple years now and I have about 40,000 points. One day I'll buy something epic.
I hope Gamestop is around for a long time. Brick and mortar stores are being killed off every day. I understand why, it's just a little sad. It is very nice to be able to actually go into a store, feel welcome, and stare at a wall for an hour, before deciding what you want to walk out with.
