Gamestop Reviewing Checkout Policy Practice

gamestopActions Taken After Story Published

GameStop will review its lending and sales practices, including the checkout policy that allows brand new games to be rented out to employees and then re-sold at full price as new, in light of a Kotaku story that called into question whether the practice could fall under Federal Trade Comission scrutiny.

The company confirmed the review to Kotaku’s Brian Crecente, who originally broke the news, yesterday.  They also noted the FTC has not yet contacted GameStop concerning the practice.   Once the corporate review is completed, GameStop will release a statement on its findings.

GameStop stock closed down thirteen cents yesterday, to $32.29 a share.

TSSZ News will follow up on Gamestop’s review and relay its findings.
