I haven't that many bad experiences in Gamestop. I can only think of a few...
The only one's I had it that I pre-ordered Skyrim for PS3, paid in full, took my receipt and left. This was about a month back now I come back and they "misplaced" my order on the computer and have no record of it. Good thing I saved my receipt as I took it out and showed them. The manager, named Greg, looked quite confused as to why my receipt was right but nothing was in there system. After some bitter words on my end all I got was a refund because their copies of the game were all pre-ordered. I used my refunded money to buy a copy off Amazon. I haven't touched it yet though as every time I look at it I get pissed.
Before I start this is at another Gamestop.
The other was with my Modern Warfare 3 Hardened Edition pre-order. I pre-ordered it back in June and asked for the hardened edition but only put $5 down on it. Came back on launch (afternoon), waited in the lines, got to the counter and was presented with a standard edition. I then stated I pre-ordered the Hardened Edition to which they replied "No you didn't". Good thing my receipt was on hand and the clerk looked it over and called a manger up. The manager then proceeded to look into the PC and found I had ordered the hardened Edition. Well guess what kiddies? They were out of stock of them. No matter how much ranting I did they wouldn't even try to call another store to see if they had extra. After many choice words I got my Hardened Edition, not from Gamestop, but from another shopper who offered it to me for the price of a standard game. It's nice to see when people actually are kind.
Best Buy irks me as I constantly get asked "Hi, how are you today? Finding everything OK?" every few freaking minutes! Damn ma leave me the FUCK alone already. You can hear me tell the other employee I am fine but then you gotta walk up and ask anyways? Also stop pushing shitty products down my throat. Monster Cables? Heh, more like cheaply produced overpriced shit. Or even better, try to push Beats By Dr.Dre. I don't want those piece of shit headphones. My $50 Koss PRODJ100's blow those out of the water! Really I walk up to the headphone section only to have some employee looming in the next aisle ready to spring. I got kicked out of a Best Buy once for interrupting a sales person pitching Bose' shitty speakers to another guy. Ended up turning him onto Klipsch.
Few had to rant a bit...
