[IMG]http://www.theeca.com/newsletters/dragonage_back.jpg[/IMG]A gamer has launched a class action suit against GameStop over what he deems deceptive practices in the retailer's used games sales.
Plaintiff James Collins purchased a used copy of Dragon Age: Origins from a GameStop in Hayward, California according to [URL=http://ps3.ign.com/articles/107/1079852p1.html]a story on IGN[/URL]. The game’s box art advertised that free content could be downloaded for the game, but of course the original owner of the title had already redeemed the free downloadable content, leaving Collins out of luck.
Collins, who paid $54.99 for the used game, saved about $5 off the list price of a new copy, then found out he could pay buy the extra content for $15, leaving him $10 poorer than if he had originally purchased a new copy of the game.
