This was fun to watch. My only issue are the many brokerages blocking buy orders for the hot stocks, that's some hot bullshit just for the sake of letting the big institutions correct their messes in the meantime. Everyone should have the right to maybe lose all their money on horrible stock purchases.

If anything though, this all just highlights the shit section of the stock market, options trading. It was a fucking mistake to have that legalized on such a grand level back in the 70s. Options trading is essentially the horserace betting equivalent of the investing world, I see no problem in those hedgefunds getting blindsided by internet assholes.

@navster15: Best Buy and Amazon provide trade-in services but sure Gamestop does offer a somewhat convenient way to get ripped off.

It’s a shitty retailer because of their horrid customer service, forget just the other shit you mentioned. They can’t go under soon enough.

And I consider any bundle that forces you to buy their store gift card as borderline scalping. It’s not 100% profit like the real scalpers are doing but it still locks my money with an establishment hence why I always avoided the GS bundles.

But at least you own a PS5 now 🤷‍♂️

You bought a borderline scalper bundle from one of the shittiest retailers out there, yeah you did deserve that.

I can understand the itch over wanting to get one ASAP though. I managed to not avoid the more horrible bundles and only got suckered by a small one at Kohl's that bundled a second controller and Spiderman.

Also, fuck Gamestop.

I think there’s already a thread about this but yeah I already got a Series S to replace my Rock Band machine (One X). I don’t need a Series X when I have a capable PC. Just recently got a PS5 through Kohl’s with a stroke of luck. Sadly it’s the disc version (wanted the digital) that was bundled with an extra controller and Spiderman which isn’t completely horrible because I already wanted Spider-Man.

That stance is still both sides bullshit. All it does is give cover to these treasonous assholes who attempted a failed insurrection.

Good riddance.

What exactly did the rioters who took advantage of BLM protests get besides broken glass and stolen merchandise?

Was wondering how long until a both-sides apologist would enter here. There is zero equivalence between opportunist rioters and rioters who invaded federal property in order to disrupt a Constitutionally mandated event. Get the fuck over yourself.
