Woman calls me up at the gamestore a couple of days ago. Situation is this: She bought her son a copy of Fallout New Vegas for Xbox 360 back in January. She bought no extended warranty on it at all.
Now her little precious wants the PS3 version of the game and she's asking if she can just get a swap out from one version to the other.
Sorry it doesn't work that way. I explain to her that she'd have to trade one version in against the other and pay an extra $18 or so for the changeup. She didn't buy the extended warranty and she's outside the general return window by far anyway, so there's really nothing we can do here.
She prattles on about how it's unfair and "it's the same damned game, what's the big deal?" I stand my ground and refuse. Then she asks if I would be willing to do it as a "one time under the table thing for $5."
Ok two things:
1) NO
2) $5??? Wow you must have totally lost your mind lady. Not that I would probably ever do it anyway but it would take a lot more than $5 for me to even think about doing it.
But this gets better. I shoot her down a few more times and she asks for a manager, so I put her on with my manager and she tries to bribe him with $5 too! She apparently then upped her offer to $10 but was still denied. I think between the two of us we must have told this woman no about 15 times.
