The lights are on
Ok... a while ago when Gamestop sold movies, I was there looking at their selection. They had a huge buy 2 get 3 movies free deal going on since they were going to stop selling movies, anyways a good deal on used movies. So I'm browsing the selection and see Star Wars: Episode III. I enjoyed this movie so I grabbed it along with a few other movies and walked over to the checkout counter. I gave them the movies and what not, only to have my brother call me to show me something in the store. So I walk over as they are packing my movies like they do. So I pay and leave Gamestop.
So maybe three days later, I open my used copy of Star Wars to find F*&^#%$cking dude wheres my car in the case (Yes, that movie sucks so much I am not punctuating or capitalizing it) And believe me, I am pissed. I watched it and thought it was so gay.
So the next day I tell my mom the situation and ask her to bring me back. She says she doesn't feel like it and maybe in a few days. Unaware that the return policy is seven days or so, I decide I can wait.
So about two weeks later we finally venture back to Gamestop. I walk in and tell the guy the situation, and he says, "Sir, as it says in the fine print, there is only a seven day warranty on returning the item." I flip my *** in front of everyone. In front of my mom and little sister I say something like "I didn't pay fourteen ninety F%#king nine for dude where my mother F&#king car! Now I want my money back or get me F#%king star wars or I'm gonna freak out! (which I already did). Now I was asked to leave and I did, after throwing the *** DVD at the guy. (Yes I admit, I overreacted) But hey, who the would rather watch dude wheres my car than Star Wars...
omg.. i woulda FREAKED!!.. i woulda been like. dude, whers my star wars!?
They shouldn't have gotten the movies mixed but this is mostly your fault. You waited about 18 days after you got it to take it back and it seems like you were a *** once you got there. Overreacting is a bit of a understatement and I'm glad you didn't get the movie you wanted.
I agree with Jc17580. :\ Though they should have made right on their mistake. I work at GameStop and we always try to fix any problems we might make. It shouldn't have been treated as a return.
Is this supposed to be one of those bait n' tackle troll topics where we're supposed to nerdrage over the TC's ignorance as to just how odious their conduct is? I mean, it was worth a chuckle at face value, but if this somehow isn't an embellishment...

Sorry, man, but Netflix is the way to go.
You Should have been mad, police or not you paid for the movie Star Wars III not that crap movie.
This is a reminder to everyone, I didn't return it on time due to the fact that AT THE TIME I didn't have my license or a job to pay my mom for gas money for getting me to the Gamestop that is 35 minutes in each dierction.
THAT IS STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I ONLY GO TO BLOCKBUSTER. but i think you should be kicked off gameinformer.com for saying the f word 6 times
That sounds like a "oops, I forgot to take 2 seconds to open the box and look to see if they put the correct movie in here seeing as gamestop always screws up when putting games into the appropriate cases" Hmmm. Sounds like you already knew about the return policy too, so why was that suprising?
@cooler, I intentionally added #*@ for that reason :)
I would have did the same thing
hey well, i remember when they sold DVDs (actually, before it became just Gamestop, it was EB Games, which i preferred over Gamestop at the time. i remember this one guy got some movies and the clerk started talking to him about the movies this guy wanted and how they sucked (which they did. this guy had a problem). Then the guy freaks at the clerk and lets like, i dunno, 15 bombs on the clerk. Then the guy calls the clerk some names and runs out with the unpaid DVDs
yeah that is totally your fault and if you have no money for gas for your mom or a job or a license what in the bloody hell are you going in and buying movies for shouldn't you be looking for a job...you made a mistake I always check everything they give me a gamestop from the back of the disc to the title to make sure it's right...after 2 weeks it could have been you hustling them for another copy, plus you handled it way immaturely, oh and Dude's Where My Car is freakin hilarious just puff puff pass and you'll understand
That kinda is your fault but that was their mistake and you should have gotten Star Wars. Your fault for freaking out and not getting it.
I'm going to "freak" out if you do not give me the time back I waisted reading your blog. The time it took you to whine and complain about the slight misfortune you identify as your "worst experience ever at Game Stop", you could have done something productive like fetched a Natty Light for your mom. She might have given you money to go buy another DVD for being such a good son. Also, that DVD could not have cost the full $14.95 if it was a buy 2 get one free deal. If you paid that then you were ripped off lol.
I personally think youre a spaz
Sorry man, gotta go with the majority and say this is your fault. At least call the people at the store and tell them that you made a mistake, explain to them your situation of not being able to get to the store... I mean, there were a lot of things you could have done in that small amount of time. People make mistakes all the time, and they gave you a whole week to help them out. How do they know that you didn't just get "Dude, Where's My Car?" from somewhere else and put it in that case and try to get money back? It wouldn't be the first time people have done that. They can't lose money on liars, and that's what most people are.
Sucks, though. Use eBay and sell that junk. If you can find any sucker wanting to buy "Dude, Where's My Car?" in a Star Wars case. :)
Yeah, see if people actually read what it says up there, I bought like 10 DVDs (A few for my little sister) and I didn't actually think of calling. Also, this was like a year and a half ago, so why is everyone freaking out that I had no job or license. I was like 15
:0 wow...
I'm not saying that your story is your fault, but if I were the guy behind the counter, and I noticed you kept the DVD for more than 7 days, and you still didn't want it, then you should have either realized that you'd have to keep it, or that he's doing his job. Sorry, but I've lost way more money to Gamestop than you probably have. It's a joke, and we all hate it, but we have to put up with it to survive, kinda like Walmart. :P
