Stupid Stickers

I love used video game stores for the sheer fact that games that are years upon decades old are still in circulation and classics and gems from all kinds of systems can be shared and enjoyed by new people. But why is it that used game shops insist on putting HUGE stickers all over the front of the game cases? Maybe not everyone's as OCD as me when it comes to how your game cases look, but personally I like when I can see the whole box art and everything on the front of the label the way it was originally meant to be seen, rather than having the Game-stop logo or $19.99 obscuring text and graphics. Now this wouldn't be such a problem if it weren't for the fact that most stickers these places put on don't just come off cleanly. You know what I'm talking about. They leave that sticky goo all over your game case so it actually looks worse than when it just had a sticker on it! I think more used game shops should either start using shrink wrap to allow the stickers to come off completely, or just have price tags on the side or in display cases.
