Horrible trade in credit

- Horrible trade in credit
I don’t have one I’m inquiring
Bad company
I spent 200$ at play N Trade on East Beltline in just games! I even bought a 10$ membership.
This buisness has the worst policys of any store that I have delt with. The employees can not make any decsions. The owner is selfish and obviously does not care about his customers or how his business is crooked. I bought a game that did not work, they will not give me my money back and will not swap out a copy.
I will never recomend anyone ever going to Play N Trade. No wonder they had to close their other location on Alpine ave.
Hope their business fails, they won't be getting any more of my money. Too bad you can't rate 0 stars.

Rip off
I was at play and trade I hade 6 games and a gameboy color I had 3 of them that was nes games such as top gun karate champs and bases loaded on the gameboy I had Pokemon red rescue team and the lion king on the sega gamegear I hade mortal kombat 1 whith case I waited with the lady at the counter she was wasting her time talking to someone so she did that for about 7 minutes until she finally acknowledged me so I brought out the stuff so she scanned it and what not she says do you want cash or store credit and i said cash so she says its going to be 6 bucks and 47cents so i said yes and I found out my stuff was worth 40 bucks later
So I'm mad about it
Psycho Owner
The Plymouth meeting PA store never had a shot with that owner running the show. Rude,nasty, unprofessional and threatened customers regularly.
The place had no inventory and she accused everyone of stealing from her including her employees. She was referred as a shedevil and diesel *** drama queen by her employees. Heard she was a silver spoon trust fund ***. Never paid rent, royalties or employees.
The girl ran the business into the ground according to corporate Play N trade executives and stiffed kids out of there allowances and christmas gifts. She claimed in a self written testimonial that she was a retired attorney and a super successful retiree.
She lied by omission according to our sources. The girl is a "LOOSER"
Play N Trade not honoring its refund policy
Play N Trade has ignored all inquiries into this issue. Thankfully, my credit card company saw reason and refunded me fully. *** Play N Trade.
Once home, I decided I wanted to return the headset. On 12/17/13 I returned to the same Play N Trade and requested to return the unopened, fully-sealed Ear Force XP400 Wireless Headset. I also inquired about an anomalous "Fee" of $13.00 on the receipt, which I had not noticed until that day. I was told that because there was a "Trade In" credit of $8.00 on the receipt, that any refund would only be issued as a store credit - even the $13.00 "fee" which the cashier admitted was an overcharge mistake on their part.
I referred the cashier to Play N Trade's Return Policy which is clearly written at the bottom of all their receipts: "New merchandise (Video Games, DVD's, Music Bundles and Accessories) may be returned... within 14 days of purchase with the original sales receipt. Returned merchandise must be in the original sealed box or package with all accessories and manuals and be in salable condition." I also noted that no mention of this trade in/return stipulation was visible anywhere in the store, nor was it mentioned at the time of the original purchase. When the cashier refused to honor his store's refund policy, I asked to speak to a manager.
The cashier contacted Mr. Mousa Joudeh (manager) by phone, and allowed me to speak to him directly. Mr. Joudeh also insisted that Play N Trade would only issue a store credit.
I left the store with my merchandise and receipt and immediately contacted my credit card company, the Better Business Bureau, and the State Attorney office. I want Play N Trade to honor its own Return Policy.
DESIRED OUTCOME: I want to return the Ear Force XP400 Wireless Headset to Play N Trade, and I want my credit card refunded for the cost of the Ear Force XP400 Wireless Headset, as well as any applicable tax on that purchase, as well as the mistakenly charged "fee" of $13.00. The total amount of refund I seek is $252.7891.
Manager and store refuse to help me on a item i paid for.
Play N Trade: Lie to your face, rob you blind
I used to be a loyal customer, but boy, not anymore. Every single time i go into the local Play N Trade i am lied to.
They tell me they compare prices to Gamestop when i constantly find that Gamestop sells the games 5-10 dollars cheaper. nowadays i cant remember a time they actually had a game cheaper than Gamestop.
They tell me they have good games in stock, when they barely have anything in their store worth looking at 90% of the time (and absolutely nothing if you want anything other than PS2, Xbox, DS or N64 games. PS3? X-box 360? PS1? Super Nintendo? HAH, better look somewhere else chump)
They tell me they are working with me when they offer to take my 3 games off my hands for 5 bucks total, turn around and sell them for 25 bucks each (This is when i stopped trading with them)
The final straw was one of there lazy and totally uninterested employees, instead of taking the 30 seconds to price-check with Gamestop (something they have always done before this) instead told me that if i didnt like their price i should just go to another store.(they have exactly one employee worth a *** from my experience, the rest seem insulted that you are wasting their "Pick my nose" time)
I probably spent thousands over the years and traded in over 50 games at Play N Trade and it was a huge mistake to do so. If lazy, uninterested employees, an embarrassing lineup of terrible games, way to high prices and frankly insulting trade in offers are your thing, go to Play N Trade.
But if you want better options in Cary, i suggest Gamestop for new games, Ed McKays for old games, and the internet for everything.
The People at Irving, TX Play N Trade are the Worst, AVOID!!
UPDATE 7/21/2012: The PS2 system that I paid $65 for because Play N Trade is too cheap to repair my system made grinding noises, and I went to the store to return it, and one of the associates after \"testing\" the system said \"The problem is not there in front of me, I\'m afraid I can\'t do anything\", and to add insult to injury, one of the people that worked there mocked me by saying \"Oh, this is terrible customer service\" while pretending to bang the counter. This disturbs me greatly that any store would willfully treat their customers this way, and the staff overall is very, very unprofessional to a very disturbing degree, and this is why local businesses are dying, because of stores like this.
Buy from either Estarland.com, Amazon.com, or even Gamestop.com. Gamestop is far better than Play N Trade, despite being a chain retailer, at least they will treat their customers professionally, unlike this train wreck.
Please for god\'s sake avoid these people, they will waste your time, I cannot stress that enough, and they will also waste your gas money from driving back and forth. Do not deal with these people.

Play N Trade is BAD ***.They have really nice people,good games,and even though I returned to many games and can't return any more for a little while I can still trust them to get me really fun games, so I don't really think I would want to return them.So in conclusion PLAY N TRADE IS THE BEST STORE EVER I go there every day
