I'm so confused, this seems like a string of really weird decisions

  1. Why would you buy from gamestop of all places online when they're so ubiquitous that you could walk into one anywhere and buy it new with the box instead?
  2. Why buy it from gamestop online for full price when you could buy it digitally for full price or other online places with a discount.
  3. Of all things to buy new, a pokemon game is one that buying used for cheaper is a better option all around, and gamestop specializes in used games.
  4. I'm still stuck on this but why gamestop? Amazon and ebay have the game much cheaper new, and with the box guaranteed too

Op get a refund and save like 20-30 bucks buying the game from elsewhere with better quality control.

Edit: To make it perfectly clear since people can't differentiate, I ain't blaming OP at all. Gs is a shitty company who I wouldn't trust to provide free air. OP needs to get a refund and buy elsewhere from a company that will treat him better. My questions are just me personally being curious about what lead to picking gs in the first place given their reputation. It's not victim blaming and I dislike that I even have to make this disclaimer instead of being able to trust people to understand nuance

On digital vs physical:

  1. Digital versions are locked into the whim of Nintendo. For instance, you can't play the game on another switch if the user who brought it is playing another game on their account. In fact, the second Switch can't even play it without having an internet connection.

  2. You can't sell a digital copy second hand, meaning the value is way lower for digital copies. They still have the same retail price though...
