TAG Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Has there ever been a time where some store you know screwed up bad with something and got themselves in a ton of trouble (or at least come close?)? There has for me, or us. In fact, just today, Sears stores all over the place ****ed up big time and wound up selling SSBB today, even though the release date isn't for almost another 2 weeks. But they found out and stopped selling, since they knew they could get sued by Nintendo. Now they're trying to get mandatory recalls for the sold copies. Haha, good luck with that Sears.

They could've stayed quite to have some chance for others to get them...not the workers in Sears, but the people who bought it from Sears...they snitched? GRRRR.

TAG Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 No, they were asking if it was really true whether they really had brawl in stock. Sears probably got suspicious of the insane amount of phone calls and then did a little research or something and found out their huge error.

Silencerleader Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Awww...that makes sense. Cool that some people got the game before hand though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xbon Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Did anyone return it? To be honest, if I got the game, I would not return it even if I was supposed to :( I know, thats probably bad huh? :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAG Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 yeah, but now Sears is trying to recall all the sold copies.

TAG Posted February 28, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 They may be able to track those who used a credit card or something. But for those who used stuff like cash......well, they're royally screwed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure they can try to get their games back, but in the end, the consumers did nothing wrong. They bought a product from a store that wasn't supposed to be selling it yet.
