"Does anyone else use Gamestop as a bank?<p>I got really pissed off with US Bank because I kept overdrafting my account even though I opted out, and the same thing happened with my credit union when I got a debit card.<p>Now whenever I get paid I go preorder a whole shitload of games. Whenever I need money, I go to the nearest gamestop and ask for my money back on a game I don't want and make a withdrawal. The lines are shorter at gamestop than at the bank and I can trade in old games and have money go straight to my savings account. Gamestops are just as prevalent as banks in my town and I work at a mall so it's even more convenient than running an errand to the bank or using an ATM and getting charged<p>The gamestop people are starting to catch on that I'm just moving money around and only buying one preordered game a year, if that, but there isn't shit they can do about it. The best part is, since I always preorder every game coming out I'm still guaranteed to get all the exclusive content whether or not I'm sure I want a certain game. It's like they're rewarding me for banking with them."
If Bitcoin can have be worth $30k, why can't Gamestop be worth $300? - An unknown twitter account<p>I mean that is kinda true, stocks have the value people assign it.
This really reminds me of the pump&dumps around alt-coins and shit-coins back in the day...<p>Question is, how long will it last before reddit gets bored and moves on?
