    Adverts!
    Ebay are a bunch of crooks, you're left with sweet FA once you've paid for postage and had the ebay and paypal fees taken off you.

    The people on Adverts arent much better...

    Put up a 360 game for 10 euro and people offer you 5...

    F**K OFF, 10 for a game is a bargain, if you get only 5 hours enjoyment out of it thats 2quid an hour... excellent value... but noooo, "Its 3 years ole so I will not pay more than a fiver for it"...:mad::mad::mad::mad:

    If a game is only going to give me 5 hours entertainment I think I'd prefer to hire it.

    It cost more to rent a game then most people on adverts will give you to buy the game

    Well to be honest it has been a while since I rented since all my mates have 360's and we swap about. My nextdoor neighbour and I have a deal that we buy different games and then swap. It depends on the person I suppose there's only two games in my life I liked so much I wanted to keep and replay.
