GAME OVER!

I spent today with two of my mates who were both searching for an elusive game, titled "Soul Calibur 4". So we drove to Wembley market hearing of a stall that might have a pre owned copy or two. And surely enough, there it was. Just the one pre owned copy though.
Justin; the greedier of the two called shotgun on it. CLAIMED! Felt so bad for Paul. There's nothing worse than having to pay full price for something your mate bought under half price. It's what they would call "a shegg". And after checking another dodgier stall, where the ghetto looking 'brotha' tried selling me some iffy looking games. We decided to go to a mall, to a store called 'GAME', where they sold new and pre owned games. Didn't really mind paying a couple of extra quid. I mean it is the number one store for all you gaming needs.
So I ask the store clerk for a pre owned copy of this game. He checks.... he has four. RESULT! "How much is it?" we ask. Now the next thing that comes out of his mouth made no sense to me at all. You see further down the row of games was a brand new copy of "Soul Calibur 4". Now imagine my surprise when this clerk tells me that the price of a pre owned game costs the same as a brand new one.
Now I work in sales and there is no way a used car would ever cost the same as a brand new one. It makes no sense and it would just irritate customers. And thats exactly what I felt. What a stupid way to do business. I am so not happy with this kind of service, and I've been a loyal customer. I felt to dash my loyalty card square on his forehead, and I really should have!

cost of brand new "Soul Calibur 4" = £29.99

cost of pre owned "Soul Calibur 4" = £29.99

cost of store clerk's look on face when loyalty card smacks him in the face = priceless

cost of seeing me in cuffs for assault on store clerk = glad I didn't do it.
