You know you dont need the actual pre-order receipt as long as they have your name and phone number in their system, right?
Fucking dumbass
Julian Ortiz
This has nothing to do with gamestop, this is just a story of idiotic people.
Blake Powell
I ain't reading all this shit.
Jose Davis
No, for pre-order bonus items you need a proof of purchase, In this case it was the ZTD watch, which requires a signature from the manager because of the small stock.

tl;dr
i dont understand why so many of you faggots hate gamestop and yet still continue to go there
Ayden Cook
This didn't happen
Colton Adams

Stop being a faggot, OP, and just order games online
Jayden Bennett
It's better than the people who randomly include .jpg .mov, or other extensions in their posts.
Cooper Foster
It just did, 20 minutes ago. Riverside,.California.
But you're free to not believe it.
Brandon Flores
Can't order a limited supply watch online guy.
Gamestop only.
Jack Lopez
I would have believed it, if the mom didn't pants her kid in public.
Nathan Cook
You've obviously never been to So Cal then. This happens far often then you'd like to believe with latino families.
Dominic Perry
Never had a problem with gamestop. Worst thing is being asked if I wanted the store warranty, season pass, or another bs game, which happens to be every time.
Jaxson Reed
Can confirm.
I've seen a guy whip his kid bare assed in a Target before for attempting to steal some salsa.
Hudson James
>slapping kid >before stealing salsa
i hope Juan stole some guacamole and a pack of pita bread, too
Ryder Thompson
I lived in riverside from 8th to high school graduation in Temecula, but I've been all over the county, I can definitely believe this story.
Owen Kelly
>last copy Thats what they always say if you didnt preorder and just walk in man. I know cause this is what they always say to me when i just get a new game as a walkin

Kayden Morgan

come to think of it, the same thing happened at the same store when i bought Bravely Default a couple days after its release. strangely enough,. i bought Bravely Second the day of release and it never happened
Luis Young
>implying you can't
Kayden Peterson
You physically can't.
Its a backordered item thats been held back for 2 months thanks to Amazon's fuckery. There are no spares.

>Riverside I thought this story was complete bullshit but now I know you wouldn't be making this shit up especially coming from there.

You think latino families have the same shame that you or I have? They're the second closest thing we have to cavemen. Theyll get nude anywhere.
