Literally a used Switch game in a big, ridiculous bag with a “New” sticker on it. Imagine going into a GameStop with a game in a bag like this and convincing them to give you credit for it as “New”.

Don’t buy online from GameStop. Actually, just don’t buy from GameStop.

Back in the day they would tell me the only game they have left in stock is the wall case copy. So you can take it but the case was opened and disc removed and put into a drawer behind the counter in a cd envelope. They would tell you it's new and they can't give a discount but assure you it's new. I hated that, still took it but I really hated it. Give $5 off or something... the worst part is it probably happened to me like 3 times which I couldn't believe.

I wonder if the copy in the pic is the same deal that I had.

    I used to work for their brand in my country, and I would have to repackage and shrink wrap the game & booklets when we received new stock.

    So yes, it is open but still new (assuming the store manager is honest).

    I still didn't like the idea of doing this to games, but there weren't many jobs in my town and it sure beat working checkouts..
