GAME tried to rip me off!

[albireo]

So i went to GAME at the weekend to see what they had and whilst in there i spotted the DS web browser for £11.99 so i thought "why not".As per usual, the game box was empty to prevent stealing so i joined the queue when a member of staff asked me for the box so that she could get it prepared and put it behind the counter.Once i got to the counter, i pointed out which item was mine and we went throgh the whole transaction process, then we left to get some thing to eat. I decided to open the box as i usually do only to discover that they had actually left out the ds game card out and only put the memory expansion cartridge in.
Needless to say we went straight back to the shop where a member of staff lifted up the leaflets in the box (like we hadn't already).He then spent what seemed like an eternity rummaging through drawers to try and find the missing piece.After a while he said he couldn't find it although I'm pretty sure he just got bored, so i was refunded and left the shop empty handed.

and the moral of story is: always check inside game boxes immediatley after buying something,you can never be too safe.

You weren't ripped off, this happens a lot actually. Mostly with EB Games\Gamestop. When I was working for EB Games, they had the craptiest filing system, and it actually happened to me that I couldn't find a game and felt bad for the boy who wanted a copy of Megaman Zero 2. But, I think that kid hates me anyways since when he bought GUN for PS2, I read the ESRB Rating and content (as I'm supposed to) and his mom said it was too vulgar for him. I could just feel the hate in his eyes.

You were ripping yourself off buy buying the Web Browser in the first place.

Surely this was just an error rather than them trying to stitch you up?
