Still, it's not their fault it is the way it is, so it's kind of a dick move to make them the ones who take **** for it.

While you didn't explicitly say you were threatening anyone, you very much implied it.
marvel_moviefan_2012:
then I will rephrase it, when they start their harassment I tell them in a stern voice to knock it off as I am not interested. It might be their job to sell me **** but I do not have to take it. I am not overly rude in real life but I am similar to what you see here, obviously I admit that. I also don't give a **** what people think of me I freely admit that too. I do however believe everyone should be true to who they are not not be so phoney which is what it sounds like people would want me to be. Anyways I don't care I never pre-order **** from them and I rarely shop there like I said only when they are having amazing clearance sales that are hard to pass up.

Oh the intimidating part, yes I am naturally a scary looking dude and I have one of those voices people cringe when I talk, it is a curse but I use it to my advantage as best as I can.

gr.

I really feel that GameStop has been turning it around  as of late.  I've found a store with really good employees and they're sooooo much less naggity about preorders and cards and what have you.

Went in to my usual location tonight - GameStop has a "Skylanders Day" coming up and they're going to have to exclusives for this event.  I wanted to see if I could get any info from the store w/r/t if they'd be holding the exclusives for the event, selling them early, etc.  Guy asked if I was looking for anything.  Said they had some new Skylanders stuff coming out I was curious about.  "Oh, Superchargers?  That's not due out for a couple of months."  "Naw, there are two new GameStop exclusives for Trap Team coming out for a Skylanders event you have coming up."  "I don't know anything about that, man." (okay, I don't expect you to know everything in the store.  stop here and we're cool, man).  "It's all a waste of money since you're going to have to buy a whole new starter kit in three months anyway.".  "What?  No, all the toys from the old games work with the new game."  "Yeah, but you have to buy a new portal for the new game."

For those of you who don't follow - the new games retail for $75 each... and that's if you don't find them on sale.  Game comes with three figures., portal, game disc.  Most new games run $60.  So, you're paying $15 for three figures and the portal.  Even if..

"Naw, you don't have to get the new portal, you can useyour old portal and do the digital download..."  "No, you can't.  You have to get the new portal, even if you download the game."  "No, trust me.  You can use your old portal."  "If you say so... but when you're in here buying the new portal at launch, I'll just give you a thumbs up."

Asshat.  I'm pretty sure I know a bit more about Skylanders than you do.

I'll let my fellow forumers google if I'm right or not. (PROTip: I'm right.)
