17 Black Friday Horror Stories That Are So Horrible, You’ll Be Glad Shopping Has Moved Online


7.

“Former GameStop manager. The worst one I ever worked was 2006. Everyone wanted a damn Wii. When I got to the store at 4 a.m. to prep for the 5 a.m. opening, there were people wrapped around the shopping centre in a line for the damn thing even though I had a sign on the door explicitly stating that we could only guarantee them for the first six people. After opening, our systems were unbearably slow when processing credit cards, but they still worked. Fast forward three days later, a lady walks in to the store with a bank statement and starts laying in to me about her card being charged $200 four times (processing, not drafted yet). She insisted that she wouldn’t walk out until I gave her $600 cash from the register. As it turned out, our credit card processor had been overwhelmed that day, and this turned out to be a wide issue. It was the explanation for the system slowdown on Black Friday. The charges dropped off after a couple days.”

“My first job was at GameStop in 2007 and I remember people calling every damn day asking for Wiis and we were always out. We’d get a shipment of like four and NO ONE would call those days.”
