I haven't followed the pricing recently but for some games I bought the stickers would show a pricing history and seeing how the same game was cheaper at a previous time made me feel slightly ripped off sometimes.
Laugh.. sorry. Forgot they're still alive.Fix'd.
And hey, it could be worse I guess. I picked up a copy of Sonic & the Secret Rings from GameStop a while back, and it had a price tag from what I assume was another game shop, or an older era when GameStop's tags were different. It was a different color from GameStop's price stickers and was on the inside of the spine, so I assumed that it was just slipped in there and could be slipped out by lifting the plastic cover of the case.
When I got home, it turned out that the yellow sticker LITERALLY was stuck onto the cover art, UNDERNEATH the plastic of the spine... Meaning there was no way to possibly remove it without seriously damaging the cover art. Furthermore, removing the GameStop sticker on the back corner revealed another yellow price sticker (this time outside the plastic), and the barcode beneath the plastic was cut out with scissors.
Seriously, I don't understand these shops sometimes... and I'm speaking as someone who used to work at a used game shop, too.
I worked at a game SHOP, but it wasn't GameSTOP. It was one of those smaller local chains. Sorry, i know the spelling is near identical.Oh, you worked in one? As it sounds you did make a better experience.
Fix'd.

have you tried drying the sticker with a blower?
