GameStop: Reviews
Negative experience: What is this ?! This isn’t right .. Hire more people Gamestop.
Negative experience: I was there to look at Pokémon cards yesterday and they had given everyone a paper and said “we only have this and this left,” and took note of what people wanted, to which I replied with what I was there for. They said ok, gave me a little ticket with what I wanted, and I thought the ticket, with what I wanted, was a guarantee for what they would have by the time I got inside. I waited for 45 minutes in line outside, just for them to tell me they didn’t have anything I was there for. They didn’t tell me or any one of the people outside waiting that there was nothing else. It was an absolute waste of time and a horrible experience.
Fantastic experience: Very nice Gentleman Very helpful. The store has everything
Negative experience: I was asked for a number when I mentioned they dont have one on file as I don't really shop there. Dude was persistent saying I need a number and made it seem like I needed a membership to buy anything from there. That's one thing. Second, dude made it seem like warranty was included with it rather than saying it's optional so that was also added. I didn't get my receipt so had to go back for it to see why something that should've been at least $130 turned into $210. Very disappointed in the way communication was handled.
Fantastic experience: Super helpful!
Positive experience: Very good on keeping stocked up on collectables good store cheers..
Negative experience: This post is mostly feedback for corporate or leadership, as I doubt the employee I spoke with was breaking protocol. I went in to buy my game, got to the register, and the song and dance began. Everyone knows when you buy something at Gamestop, there is a litany of questions about membership, protection plans, etc. It's part of the cost of using Gamestop, and it's usually fine - it's not a big deal. When the employee started asking me about renewing my membership and such, I said, "I'm not really looking for an upsell today." My tone was neutral; I wasn't being mean or rude. I just wanted to buy my game and get home. Rather than understanding that, the employee responded with, "It's not an upsell, it's a recommendation." This tells me the employee (and by proxy, corporation) are more interested in vocabulary than service. They have to dismiss my experience in order to align vocabulary to a positive valence. I didn't need the employee to validate that it was upselling. Frankly, there's nothing wrong with upselling. It wasn't the negative connotation of "upselling" that I was trying to avoid; it was wasting my time on a conversation I didn't want to have. So now I was presented with a choice: I could argue with him over whether it was upselling, I could just shut up and hand over my money, or I could leave. Again, I didn't want to waste time on a conversation, so option 1 was out. I'm tired of how omnipresent the attempts of companies to control narratives is getting, so option 2 was out. I just left without buying the game. There's nothing wrong with upselling. It's not a crime or an underhanded tactic. But I clearly expressed it wasn't what I wanted, and rather than respecting that, I was told I was wrong about what I was observing. I wrote this not because this was a terrible, horrible, awful thing, but because sometimes I think the people who write policy are so far removed from the human experience in the store that they go with things that sound good on paper, but in reality are really unpleasant. I legit got pretty angry at being told this. I had to take a breath before responding so that I wouldn't be rude. I knew what was happening, and to be told to my face that it wasn't just hit me in a rough way.
Fantastic experience: The customer service here is always top-notch. Somehow, they always have something I'm looking for! Best GameStop ever!
Negative experience: Rude employees
Negative experience: very rude employees
Fantastic experience: Got what I was looking for store is good for anything gaming but location does not grade sports cards ...
Negative experience: Don’t use their PSA grading service, you will not get updates on your cards and the turn around time takes FOREVER. If your cards get lost PSA and GameStop will blame each other for losing them; you won’t get refunded anything. Even if you do manage to get your cards back- you will likely be paying a ton to pick them up. That’s because PSA up charges you for your cards. It’s a scam. Use TAG grading instead, they have consistent grading because they use machine learning and real data to grade cards, 1-2 week turn around times, great customer support and a steadily increasing hold on the graded collectibles market. There is 0 transparency for PSA and it is apparent these days that all they care about is $.
Negative experience: Most of the times that I visit during operation hours they are close.
Positive experience: Ignored to talk to some random "customer", problem is, that "customer" left the store when I arrived and didn't come back for 15mins. Put simply. "I can't help you anytime soon because I'm busy helping nobody."
Negative experience: Make sure to look if item open guys. If the sticker seal.
Fantastic experience: Very cool spot , great employee named John helped me out , very efficient at his job and knows how to make you feel welcomed , give this man a raise , I thought I was done with GameStop and their tomfoolery, but no sir you have a happy customer :)
Fantastic experience: My associate name was Ryan, younger kid. sweet fella helped me trade in my 2013 Xbox and some games. Now I can play ark ascended on my Series X ^.^
Fantastic experience: Great experience. Amazing and helpful staff!
Negative experience: Opens at 12 not 11 on Saturdays came at 11 to pick up a game and ended up waiting an hour
Fantastic experience: Went in to buy a game and the attendant was awesome, chubby guy with a great attitude and helpful. Love people like this, to bad GameStop will be going out of business soon
Fantastic experience: Walked in for a pre order MK1....came out with Funko Pop Exclusives
Positive experience: They usually have what I'm looking for
Fantastic experience: Redeem points for a free game. Awesome
Negative experience: I bought modern warfare 3 only to find out when I got home it was halo 3 odst in the case
Negative experience: It would be much appreciated if you could update a store closing, even if temporary or early, via Google so customer base is informed versus the handwritten sign that does nothing but frankly make me a bit upset when I waste gas to drive across town to buy something. Also, turning the lights off would deter people from driving up as well. Poor communication.
Negative experience: NEVER order online! I ordered something online and a hour later I got a email saying my order was cancelled without any explanation. I had to call and stay on hold for 30 mins just to get a explanation. They cancelled my order because a problem on their end and now I gotta wait for my money to be refunded from my bank. Horrible experience!
Fantastic experience: Lady who was working was nice and generous even called customer service about my points for me and stayed on the phone till it was resolved. Thanks again
Fantastic experience: I LOVE this location. the staff is ALWAYS helpful and knowledgeable. i work a few miles from this location but live in schertz, i will always pre-order and shop here.

Fantastic experience: The employee Cassandra is amazing. The store is great like always.
Fantastic experience: Just took my son fast and friendly... And clean my son love's coming here so he's your biggest fan... But ouch on my card
Fantastic experience: Yeah I work here. All that aside, this location has really good workers who care about the customers. I say that as someone who has to see them PRETRY OFTEN. It's clean, the coupon card we push on you guys is worth it (I have one lol), but I really wanna highlight that the key difference between GameStop locations is the worker base. This one is a safe bet.
Fantastic experience: Adam is one bad dude! My kids are always breaking controllers so I decided to get them each their own and when it breaks it breaks. Adam did his wizardry and I walked out paying less than half of what I thought! Thanks bro
