GameStop Employee AMA - Soviethooves - 09-24-2019 Ask me all your dirty questions about GameStop. I can't reveal everything, but I'll answer to the best of my ability. I like working for the company and have a really good team with me, but I see the constant negative views of GameStop usually led by misled YouTube channels and general misguidance of their business model. Plz don't flame. I'm here to educate and hopefully clear up why GameStop do wut it do. RE: GameStop Employee AMA - User 21796 - 09-24-2019 Can I dive in your dumpster?

Listen chief, here in the US at least, GameStop's have to destroy everything before it goes in the garbage because dumpster divers who left it completely messy and posted it all over the internet ruined it for the rest of us. If you want to dive in your local GameStop's dumpster, just ask beforehand and leave it better than you found it. Most of the time at my store we have the stuff to dump but haven't destroyed it yet in the back. So if you do end up wanting possible free stuff, just ask. If you don't ask and get caught, get prepped for a police call. RE: GameStop Employee AMA - Lewwings - 09-24-2019 Opinion on me? How long have you worked at GameStop? Why did you decide to make your AMA GameStop-themed? How was LL? Any plans for the future (besides your police stuff)? What got you into posing GMod ragdolls and making epic pictures out of them? Why did you change your name from Soviethooves to Gungranny? Do you think GMod is dying, in a roleplay sense? Do you think GMod is dying, in a multiplayer sense? What is your profile picture? Have I asked you enough questions yet? Did you know I spent 4 minutes on thinking up, typing, and posting these questions? What do you think of AMAs in general, fun trend or dead meme?

RE: GameStop Employee AMA - Forgee - 09-24-2019 Realistically how many years do you think Gamestop has before it liquidates RE: GameStop Employee AMA - Soviethooves - 09-24-2019 (09-24-2019, 06:21 PM)Forgee Wrote: Realistically how many years do you think Gamestop has before it liquidates It's hard to judge, but at the minimum, I'd say 5 years. I put in a few factors to this: 1. That 200 stores shutting down thing isn't actually the full investor report. What was failed to be mentioned was that GameStop has been shutting down 200 stores the past few years. And those stores were underperforming or just too close to each other since when they got EB Games, they didn't shut down any of the stores. 2. New CEO has made a lot of HUGE changes and is running a lot of new test stores in Texas near GS's HQ. They seem to be going well so far, and now they're seriously sponsoring Esports and even helping in training new and old teams. Realistically, GS isn't going anywhere and is merely finally changing its business plan. We will still hopefully be keeping physical games as digital isn't killing us as much as people think, but our collectible and accessories choices will be expanded on. My store is actually getting more PC accessories and bigger sets for demos, which I'm pretty excited for. If GS does go down, it's gonna be a big negative hit to gaming. Although the market is moving to digital purchases, you can never replace the brick and mortar experience. I usually tell customers that are worried that you can't replace good customer service and experience with an online store. Not to mention being able to bend the rules for returns, running sales independent of the publisher, etc. RE: GameStop Employee AMA - konsta - 09-24-2019 How often do you have people trade in their stuff? Can you give an example, that are not games, of what's often, and seldom traded in? What was the most expensive, one of a kind, ridiculous trade in you ever seen or heard of someone trade in, only to get a fraction of what they could sell it for? What was your creepiest or weirdest experience with a customer?
