    That why you trade them in to cex and make your money back!

    Yeah but do CeX even take games without the sleeve cover?

    Afaik they do, I've definitely seen them selling them before.

    Would like to get Space Marine today, but there's not much else left catching my eye to make up the deal.

    And I really have to stop buying games, this deal has not helped my backlog.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭TrustedApple


    Font know why people are giving out about other people being faster then them buying the games to sell on. EG adverts or cex for cash.

    As I have gotting 12 games myself and have traded in 7 myself as why not its easy money paying 3 euros a game and getting 20+ back each.

    It can be aggravating if you're looking to just pick up a couple of cheap games to play, that someone else is snapping them all up to sell on for a tidy profit. It's like trying to get tickets to a concert and then finding out that all the tickets have been bought by touts. Generally, if I find out about a bargain, I'll buy what I need and then tell anyone I know who might be interested rather buying all of it up in the hope of selling them on at a profit. But really it's your prerogative what you want to do with the game when you buy it. If you want to buy up all the games and stop other people getting any bargains, there's probably nothing that can stop you doing it but it does frustrate people to know that practice is going on when they can't pick up the 3 or 4 games they want.

    Anyone have dead space 2 and willing to sell it on?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,195 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    no problem with people buying one of each to play and trade or swap when they beat it but the guys that bought dozens of games with multiples of the good games ruined this for all of us and they can go to hell, it is my one peeve with this site when posting bargains there are loads of us here as members that share offers or deals and then there are the lurkers that swoop in and steal the info with out reciprocation.

    Xenoblade Chronicles Special Edition for €18.99 says Hi :pac:


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy


    This is by far the best gaming bargain I have seen in many years. I bout close to 30 games.

    I have had 8 delivered so far, 7 came in boxes with their covers and only 1 came without a cover.

    Anybody get a dispatch email yet from orders with the updated list?(FIFA, COD: Ghosts, GTAV etc.) I got an order confirmation yesterday at half 3 so hoping there not cancelled. The last order I made I got 3/4 games delivered before they sent the dispatch email!

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,227 ✭✭✭Sam Mac


    My dispatch email arrived in my inbox 2 days after I received my items so I wouldn't be relying on that too much.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,678 ✭✭✭TrustedApple

    Hope it will be here tomorrow as 1st thing to do with the games is head to CEX with them ;) easy few euros there

    I hope your games come with no covers so you can't trade them into CeX.

    Fair play, you got the games. Well done you.

    Why do you feel the need that you have to rub it in everyones face?

    I got my dispatch mail, and 3 out of the 4 are dispatched. And the last one is cancelled.

    Does this mean I get to pick another one, or will I be charged even less?

    You should be reimbursed for the 4th game while benefiting from the applied discount on the other three games. (so €9 for 3 games + €2 p&p)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,375 ✭✭✭✭kunst nugget


    Got my dispatch email as well. 3 out of the 4 with GTAV being the one cancelled. So roll on delivery!

    Well done for spoiling it for people who actually WANT to play these games.

    Tbh, he's posting purely to antagonise. I think it'd be better for people to ignore him.

    Lol. Just off the phone to CEX in Waterford and will give the Dublin ones a call later just in case. Told them to keep an eye out for someone coming in with certain games in the coming days and to double check for games that have reproduced covers. I'm pretty certain they'll be worthless.

    They wouldn't like to get such shoddy merchandise I think.

    While I don't agree with what he was doing I found what you done extremely sad


  • Registered Users Posts: 1 anto91


    is this still available?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,207 ✭✭✭maximoose


    The offer is there, a lot of games are gone and I'd say a lot of what's still being shown for sale is out of stock too.


  • Registered Users Posts: 341 ✭✭LimerickLad92

    Nope, I actually got that relatively early. Some time on the week of 04/04/14.

    IF I manage to finish it within the next week or two and you don't get it maybe we could do a swap for a similarly old/valued game you don't need anymore or something? Then again, who knows when I'll finish it. :P

    Hopefully you'll get it anyway.


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 15,237 Mod ✭✭✭✭FutureGuy
