I was by a GameStop today so I zipped in for a second, man they really do rip you off these days. I remember getting some pretty good deals there back in the day. They blatantly have a brand new shrink wrapped copy of RE 4 for $19.99 and right on the next shelf over a used copy for $17.99. Is it just me, or should a used game be more than two bucks off? Over half of the used games didn't even have the original box art, but rather generic packaging.

The thing they did have going on that might make it worth while was a buy two get one free deal on used games. That would mean three games for $34 bucks, but with a yellow "used" stickers permanently attached to every side and the possibilty of lame generic packaging. BestBuy still seems the best deal.


Permanently attached? I've bought used games at Gamestop before, and I had no trouble with pulling those stickers off.
