It's worth 1000 Goozex points right now, but there aren't many games I'd need now. Lots of waiting for my request queue, by the time I got a game in my queue it'd be worth the same trade in as this is: Amazon is offering 28.50, and considering that I got the $20 credit, you could say I paid 1.50 rental to own it since May and play it. Its right in the sweet spot of where I can't decide.

The downside of Goozex.....

Any other ideas? I have 0 feedback on CAG marketplace(I'm a little leery...doesn't seem to be any real good safeguards against getting scammed, and I've learned from experience that ebay(Paypals owners) don't follow their own privacy policy sometime), so I'm not expecting or considering anything to happen there.

You paid 21.50 to own it since May if you trade it to Amazon.

If you're fine with getting the money from Amazon, do that. You can use it on anything.

I generally value Goozex points at half of their actual value (so 1000 points would be 25$ to me) because they go on sale for 50% off every so often, and you can generally fin 1000 point games for somewhere in that price range to trade in. (For example I recently got God of War 3 from gamefly for 23$ played it, traded it in. around 25$ after shipping)

If I were really looking to get rid of it I would consider Amazon the better of those two deals, I am keeping my copy though :)

CAG seems pretty safe, if it were a big concern you could trade exclusively with well established members.

Well if you had a trade list, I would look at your wants and maybe try to work out a deal with you since my wife would probably love to play SMG2....but then you might not trust my 7 years and over 100 positive feedback and 0 negative feedbacks on this site....
