“Gamestation Welwyn Garden City”

★☆☆☆☆

written by on 01/11/2012

Another bad experience with gamestation welwyn garden city, which has prompted me to write this review. I saw Ghost recon at £18 online (gamestation.co.uk), and when I went to the store it was £29 !!
Instead of acknowledging and apologising, the main guy (with specs) said it's a pseudo website as now there's nothing called gamestation and it's been taken over by game, hence the price is wrong on the website.
Just placed an order successfully on gamestation.co.uk and no where did I get any hiccups, but it's been a waste of my time queing up and then getting a good-for-nothing response.
The stores are the physical manifestation of the brand - someone up in the management of Game should read this if they need to recover!

I think you miss the point - is eminently cheaper to sell from an online shop than from a bricks-and-mortar retailer, which requires staff, light, heat and prime real estate to operate from. Plus most online retailers are based offshore, allowing further savings from the UK tax system (cf Amazon). The response from the staff member was pretty pathetic, but then he's probably on £18k a year and not really interested. But not surprising it's cheaper online than in store, even if it's from the same retailer.
