Thanks for your input. I posted elsewhere in a comment about treating customers well that this hasn’t been the case imo. Nor do they treat employees well. Most of their stores are filled with collectibles, poor quantities of titles anyone wants, and absolutely abysmal support of anything goes wrong. It took me 9 weeks to get a gift card refunded after they oversold a product and left it as “pending” for a month. Each time I had to phone in was 60 mins on hold with just hold music and no indication there was anyone there to help me. Everyone I spoke to was friendly, but they couldn’t do anything about it, and those that could were not customer raving, gave no communication what so ever, and wouldn’t communicate back to anyone that I could talk to. It taught me to never use a GameStop gift card, and never buy online.
My own experience with Starfield wasn't great but it wasn't bad either, they seemingly forgot to put my apt number on the box so it got stuck at FedEx, I called as soon as I saw the tracking say it couldn't be delivered, got it resolved within 30 min call, they said it's be 2-5 days so I was happy when it showed up the next morning instead :p
So... Not too bad but it was a bit annoying I had to call in to correct their mistake and missed out on basically half a day of Starfield "early access"
