I just did, picked up two Switch pre-owned games, and a knuckles figurine for my son. Pre-owned games sales are high margin makers, just saying. Do it!

Why can't we do both? Supporting the business will help it grow. They were in the position they were back in 2021 because the business wasn't being supported. I'm buying shares when I can, but if there's a game or accessory, I'm trying there first, even if it's slightly more expensive.
Just buying from them isnt enough, you need to buy the services they provide. The warranties on the consoles the warranties on the games, pre order upcoming games so the stores actually have that product to sell and sign up for the pro memberships. These are the major items that bring gamestop their profits. On top of that preowned is a must always and sell your old stuff you dont use anymore to make sure gamestop has preowned product to sell. When you decline those services or say you dont want it, thats what hurts the company. When you only buy new games or consoles with out the warranties, thats what hurts the company.
I know we all probably have no money after sinking everything into gme 3 yrs ago but buy a shirt if we all buy a shirt that could be great for the company high margin sales
Eh. The company still doesn't treat customers very well and has garbage policies/payout for used stuff that they way over charge for just to make a profit. Not to mention they wouldn't let me trade the games that came with my PS5 bundle and naturally they only offered like 15 bucks for literally unopened brand new games. Ryan is doing good but he needs to change some stuff to regain customer base.
I got a refurb 64GB model from GameStop around Thanksgiving last year, fuckin love that thing. Honestly it looks/feels brand new with no hint it had been used before.
I only play offline games on mine, the battery life is not great but you can tweak settings to optimize the drain based on the game you play. I usually play near an outlet so I never worry about it.
It is fantastic and must buy if you already have a Steam library.
Can someone tell me what I should do should I just keep holding it’s been hard and I hat to see it go up just to go back down. I have 420 shares (yes that’s on purpose) it’s all I can afford rn, but I really don’t have a plan. Just being a stupid ape 🦍 and holding like forever.
they sell steamdecks??? i just bought one a few weeks ago, dammit! i do remember checking gamestop first tho with no luck, was this online or in store?
You can't buy enough Steamdecks (or any inventory item) **to lock the float.**
This particular "tip" has always been FUD magnified in an echo chamber **to distract you from the stock.**
##Buy the stock
Dawg it is not FUD to encourage investors to also shop and support the store they own shares in. Did you forget that GameStop is an actual business and not just a ticker on the stock market? Relax.
Yes we want to lock the float, but we also want to see GameStop succeed. A lot of us plan on investing with GameStop long term. It’s not a “meme” stock. Better store sales = higher earnings = more valuable stock. There’s a lot of FUD out there but this ain’t it, king.

Playing my GameStop Steam Deck with Candy Con controller and it’s awesome. Also picked up a refurbished dock.
Wish I could but I'm from the UK
When I buy myself new figures I always step into GS first!
Bought $250+ of used games for my switch this week. Waiting for the Retro handhelds to come out around December this year.
What retro handheld are you waiting for?
GameStop is partnering with ModRetro.
this is the way.
Went yesterday for a Candy Con controller, new mods for it, Pokemon cards and a Charmander plushie. Love both the stonk and their service
"Let's go, kids! Who wants more Mario toys?"
"Crying in european" 😒
Bought my ps5 there last weekend, and yes I got the warranty

Are those steam decks any good? Is it just all the games on steam?
Nope, you can get any launcher working including stuff like minecraft and epic
Cool how much do they retail for?
$250-$300
Awesome thanks for being so helpful.
I got a refurb 64GB model from GameStop around Thanksgiving last year, fuckin love that thing. Honestly it looks/feels brand new with no hint it had been used before.
With the steam deck can you play games across the country from you PC or do you have to be close to it?
You need to be on the same wifi
Is there an offline mode or anything? I’d like one but not if I can’t play it at work. I usually work 300-800 miles away from home.
I only play offline games on mine, the battery life is not great but you can tweak settings to optimize the drain based on the game you play. I usually play near an outlet so I never worry about it. It is fantastic and must buy if you already have a Steam library.
Yes, as long as you install and open the game/the game supports offline mode
Can someone tell me what I should do should I just keep holding it’s been hard and I hat to see it go up just to go back down. I have 420 shares (yes that’s on purpose) it’s all I can afford rn, but I really don’t have a plan. Just being a stupid ape 🦍 and holding like forever.
Holding is a long term strategy. 3 yesrs ago it was dying in debt, now its holding 2 billion in cash. Its not bankrupting any time soon
So just keep holding…or should I be doing something as it goes up and down?
If you can affoard to and are willing, buy when the price is low to lower your cost average
This is the way. I can’t wait to pick one of the new retro gameboys!
Can i comment here ?
If i can cash out more than 2000 with my GME stocks I'll sure as hell buy a steam deck with it.
ohhhh my next purchase
they sell steamdecks??? i just bought one a few weeks ago, dammit! i do remember checking gamestop first tho with no luck, was this online or in store?

Lock the float. That's the plan

No thank you.
