    then my argument would still stand if you saw the game at a higher price, would you go back into the store and pay them the extra?

    Seriously?

    How can you argue that point? :o Like many people, I buy when the price is right and the service is good.

    Anyway, I cam on here to vent and ive got my problem sorted

    I'm guessing Game won't refund your return postage seeing as it's a change of mind so what was the point in sending it back?

    Postage is all prepaid. Returning under DSR.

    This all seems very petty to me. Over such a tiny amount of money.

    Not all customers are profitable customers, i've read cases of Amazon for example closing peoples accounts because their returns rate is too high.

    You obviously thought the price was right when you bought it initially.

    Yes, it can be annoying when you buy something and then it turns up cheaper, but like already said it can work in reverse too.
  • Well I guess im just a petty moneysaver on a moneysaving site :o

    I'll know next time to give the "vent" area a miss ;)

    I know it's only £2, but I guess it's a principle thing. Are all you guys saying you wouldn't have done the same if the price drop was more significant?
    A smile costs nothing, but gives a lot.
    It enriches those who receive it without making poorer those who give it.
    A smile takes only a moment, but the memory of it can last forever.

    No i would not as being a retailer i know all about profit margins and how prices can go up and down daily and then you have manufacturer promotions.

    as stated you would not go back into a store and pay extra if you saw the item increase in price.

    look at any supermarket they change prices on a daily basis on some products.
