786 Game Stop

That one scam artist will buy back used videogames for less than a dollar and then procede to sell them back at ten times that cost. Shit, 10 dollars for the newest copy of gta? Then you sell for 60. Lol dirty little man

I think this place is now called Gamer’s Choice Video Games. I would think it’s due to some sort of litigation or cease/​desist from the actual Gamestop, parent company of EB Games.
I’ll say it out loud, it’s probably not the best shop to go to, but they do have a massive amount of inventory of back list titles that would otherwise be difficult to find.
I’ve been on a bit of retro-​game binge lately, and games for systems like the GBA/​GC/​PSP (to a lesser extent) are harder and harder to come by. Thankfully, these guys seem to stock a lot of them. You can find the odd gem, and it’s probably something you’d need to keep on top of to find what you are looking for, but it can be done.
Gone are the days when Willow (in my area), Microplay/​Gaming Ground Zero are around to provide viable alternatives to EB Games, so now we are left with very few options in terms of shopping around at strictly game-​centric retail stores.
The store offers some features from a bygone era, such as offering cash for your trade ins. I’m not sure how much they give you (I overheard the guy offering $ 90 in-​store credit for a PS Vita, or $ 60 cash) or how the process works, but it isn’t a feature that I’m keen to take advantage of. They will also buy and sell PCs as well as iPods, old cell phones and consoles/​games/​peripherals.
By no means am I a regular customer. I think I’ve been to the store a few times since it’s opened, and only bought a harder to find game a while ago.
As I mentioned, they have a large amount of inventory, that in some cases seems prohibitive, and it certainly could use better organizing. None of the games are filed in any sort of discernible method, which means you’ll have to go over each game case by hand. This can lead to some interesting finds for sure, and I’m not really certain if they have a basic inventory system (it might all be in the guy’s head).
I do wish their PSP section was better displayed (the UMD cases arranged haphazardly in a glass case does not make for easy discovery). That being said, things are priced moderately.
If the owner is reading this, please for your sake and the sake of your customers re-​arrange your product so that it is sort of alphabetical or even sub-​categorical, and easier to shop.
They seem to also have a huge amount of newer product behind the counter, but it isn’t exactly clear what is behind there, or how much it is.
I’ll probably go back at some point when I’m in the area to look around.

Sketchy. Some of the staff smell like they haven’t bathed in weeks. I had an in-​store credit for some games that I traded and they couldn’t honour it because I didn’t keep the receipts for when I made the exchange. They never even told me that I needed to keep them for this. I mean come on, they took my driver’s license info to keep track of my «account» with them, and they don’t keep customer credits in their computer system? No gift card or anything? F*ck you game stop, you’ll never see me as a customer there again.
Go to Willow Video or Future Shop if you need to trade in games; don’t go to these guys.

This guy looks like a durkey that sells you your slurrpeee. If your going to buy something off him its a great deal BUT if you are you selLING SOMETHING TO HIM HE USES HIS ASIAN BARGAINING TACTICS OTHERWISE A SCAMMER.
