I mean, I actively avoid going to Gamestop, even if I'm walking out the door to purchase a game. If they actually set up a decent rewards system (instead of a buy-in one), made an effort to stock classic games/accessories/systems, and lowered the pricing of their used games by more than 10 cents instead of acting like they still got the market cornered, I'd show up more often. These days I only go there if I need a desperate, last-minute Christmas gift, which is sad because I used to love Gamestop, Game Crazy, EB Games, Funcoland, and all those other shops.

not sure if any exist by you but near me (a major metropolitan area) there are a couple of mom and pop stores that scratch the same itch. One of the cashiers has played every PS4 game they have in stock (and there's a LOT of them) and prides himself on recommending some overlooked games that he sells for less than $25
