I just got newegg to knock off return shipping and a restocking fee from a large purchase I made accidentally by saying, ".seriously? So you're not going to give me free shipping on that? You do realize I still to make an even bigger order right now. Staying calm and making people feel like they're about to make a huge mistake tends to work out well. We can call them now, if you'd like, that way you get a chance to try to defend your actions." Say "Look, I understand you are under pressure to get subscriptions, and you don't want to admit that I'm right here, but before you answer again, ask yourself if $15 is worth the loss of my continued patronage, as well as the complain calls I'm going to make to your corporate office if we don't satisfactorily resolve this. See, that's what you had to say while there. It's ok though, they can have my $15, I will just never go there again. On their website under the promotion, it said nothing about needing it, and on the Powerup Rewards page there is clearly a checkmark under the "Free" program for "exclusive offers". Well I went there today to ask them if maybe it was a mistake and I didn't actually need the $15 membership for the deal, and they insisted that I needed it after I had to explain for 5 minutes what deal I was talking about and produce a receipt. That's beside the point anyways, the point of my post is that they conned me into getting the 1-year said: This ordeal has just reaffirmed the reasons I don't go there. How should I go about doing this? Should I storm into one of their stores (that have a disturbing fat person smell might i add) and demand a refund, or use the "contact us" customer service No one I know shops at Gamestop (Best Buy gives way better prices on trade ins), and neither do I except to take advantage of this one promotion. Long story short, after checking out their website and such I'm about 95% certain they conned me into getting the membership, when all I really needed was the FREE version of Powerup rewards.Īs it's only $15, it's not exactly the end of the world, but I would like to reclaim it anyways out of principle alone. This didn't sound right to me, but I figured I had just missed some fine print on the offer details or something and agreed after asking if they were certain about this and they told me "yes". Well anyways, once there and at the end of the transaction, they inform me I need the $15 Powerup Rewards 1 year membership to take advantage of the deal. I had been thinking about upgrading to a new slim with a larger harddrive for some time, so this seemed like the right opportunity. All of Member's accumulated points will expire immediately upon termination or expiration of Member's GameStop Pro Membership, whichever is earliest.Like 2 or 3 weeks ago, they were running a trade-in promotion where they give you $150 for your old PS3. If a qualifying purchase is not made within 12 months, all accumulated points shall be forfeited and the Membership is subject to closure at GameStop's discretion. For example, all of Member's points accumulated before Decemwould expire on December 1, 2023. All of Member's points, which include points the Member has previously accumulated prior to December 1, 2023, will expire one (1) year from the date of accumulation. "Active" is defined as the Member having a current GameStop Pro Membership in good standing with a qualifying purchase in the past twelve (12) months).
