GameStop has been in the news for many things over the years, although this incident of a customer trading in a Donald Trump themed PS4 Console sheds light on some of its customers. All things considered, the GameStop employee may end up taking off the custom Donald Trump skin before reselling the console.
With GameStop’s controversy growing over the years, such as the recent reveal of a previous GameStop employee claiming that they were encouraged to lie to customers for Pro Memberships, GameStop selling an NFT based on 9/11, and overpricing used items with customers receiving little in return, its reputation has been receding from what it used to be. However, in this case of a customer who sold their PS4 with a Donald Trump skin covering the entire console, the controversy focuses on the particular customer more than it does the company.
