They get to keep their jobs. I worked for GS for a few years, its not BS, you WILL be written up if your caught not saying that stuff.// I was not talking about the employees, of course they don't make d!@* of warranties, hell, they don't make money out of sales period, it's a regular pay for a low profitable business. Game Stores are one of the worst ideas ever because the only way to turn out a decent profit is to sale used games & hardware and 3rd party hardware. I've also worked at a store that sold computers and games, so I also knows how it works. I could sale 1 computer and the profit would be higher than selling 100 new games. //EvilHero Said: GS employees no longer receive extra money on warranties, their prize? They get to keep their jobs.

I only pre-order and go in store if there is a free art book or something, otherwise I order online. I don't know if it's just me but the ones in malls seem a lot worse. I might actually buy that used game if it wasn't only five dollers cheaper, missing the manual, and scratched to hell. Yeah, this is getting pretty bad.
