GameStop stores in Philadelphia taking fingerprints with trade-ins

Posted on August 1, 2014 by (@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News

GameSpot stores in Philadelphia are now fingerprinting customers who trade in games. The records are stored in a database to help law enforcement track down thieves who fence stolen goods.

There is a law in place that makes this possible, though GameStop isn’t actually forced to abide by the pawnbroker’s ordinance. Customers don’t seem too pleased with the retailer’s requirement, so it will be interesting to see how long this continues.
