It robs the publisher and developer sales, since they see nothing second hand. And that is not healthy for the industry, especially smaller development houses.

Their labor practices and fierce cannibalization is a whole other subject I will not touch on. I just assume avoid them at all costs for personal ethical reasons.

Mom and Pop shops or Amazon for me.

I still don't get how it matters. If the publishers have a problem with it they should do something about it. I don't blame GS/EB for it.
For me, I LOVE buying used as I have 7 days to return it for a full refund.

Game companies/Publishers have no problem releasing trash games a lot and when buying new I'm stuck with it and they got my hard earned money for a crap game.
If the publishers want to guarantee all thier games will be quality and not be turds in a box then ok...That won't happen anytime soon.

I do however totally agree about their labor policies and I've voiced that with more than a few district managers mainly due to having some friends that work there.......
