This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

So OP is actually a genius. Except if you put money in a bank, it grows some money. Also it's insured, I wonder how stringent the protections are if GameStop was to go bankrupt and take the money with them.

There's none. They would owe him money, so he'd have to get in line with all the other creditors to request that the court prioritize his debt over someone else's.

No, he's stupid. Gamestop could change their policies at any time making deposit refunds store credit only. Gamestop could go under and he wouldn't be FDIC covered. Can't emphasize enough the store credit policy switch which they'd do just in response to him.
