too bad EBGames sucks now and the games aren't guaranteed to be complete AND you cant use the edge card
But thanks for the deal OP, maybe some people dont mind disc only games.

In general, how's the condition of preowned games from EB or Gamestop been like for those who've purchased online? Huge YMMV?
If it arrives in terrible/unacceptable shape, can it be returned to a store or does it have to be sent back ( if that option even exists)? The return policy doesn't really mention used games.

I've gotten some utterly craptacular games from EB in the past - and that was when they guaranteed case and manual (not that they guaranteed those would be in half decent condition though!). One time I was able to switch a game out at a local EB, but that is very YMMV. I don't know about sending them back to ebgames.com though.
I would do this if they allowed Edge card online and had free shipping still. But without those options AND the risk I take in getting crappy copies, forget it...

It depends. Some of the stuff I have gotten in the past are pretty much like-new while some of them are disc only (that is scratched up).
You can return online purchases instore (I haven't done so myself but I have seen a few confirmation from members here).

Gamestop is a crapshoot. I've gotten games that were mint and looked liked the plastic wrap had only been ripped off. I've also gotten a game that came in 3 pieces and was still missing a piece.

i've got a couple under $19.99's in mind
any suggestions for $19.99 and over for the ps2?
also, when does this deal end??

Thanks for all the replies on game condition and the OP for the coupon code.
It's worth a chance to pick up two games since it sounds like there are return options if I end up with duds.
*crosses fingers for a box, manual, and few scratches*

This is the daily deal so I'm guessing this is today only...correct me if I'm wrong anyone.

I don't know if this goes without saying or not, but do NOT just click on the used games section and browse, it seems there are plenty of in-stock under $19.99 games that haven't been listed under that. For example, I finally picked up Ratchet 3 for *free* ($17.99), but I had to specifically search for it. Sorry if this is useless info, just thought I'd try and help.

Yup, you can find all of the used games available for a system by clicking on the systema nd then clicking on "Used". Do not do a search because there are many games that won't show up.

Im thinking between all these
Kingdom under fire 14.99
KUF 2 24.99
Half life 2 17.99
but i settled for these 2
Fatal frame 2 17.99
Mercenaries 19.99
Can anyone that gets this deal post the way you all got your items?

You mean post what we got yes, no?
Anyway, I got Klonoa 2 (heard good things about this) and Ratchet UYA.
If it guaranteed box and manual I might have considered doing this deal. Without the guarantee, however, its a no go for me.

yeah. Same here. I wanted FF7 (don't care if its GH or not) but if it's coming disc only then ill pass.

Having a list of all used games doesn't seem to work ever since they merged the site (unless I'm doing something wrong). Looking at the selection, there are like 15 $17.99 games but if you do a specific search on a game not listed it's actually in stock.
If this was instore, I think games would fly off the shelves. Last time with the b2g1f sale, I saw this guy buy something like 30 games. Not sure why he would want 4, 5 copies of budokai 2, etc.
And about returning games bought online, I've had trouble before. Exchanging for another copy of the same game is fine but when you want to return it they seem hesitant to do it.

Tempting. What are the odds I get a complete game if it's a newer release?

I got my order in the mail this past Saturday.
They are all going back to the B&M this Thursday...
All my games were disc only except for Gallop Racer.
MGS2: Substance wont even load up on my PS2.
Im dusgusted and will NEVER order from EB or GS online again unless they change things drastically.

How did this thing DIE so fast? It's already dead for me. Only lasted one day!?
(and I hate the fact Ebgames merged with Gamestop, because EB used to be good with including the box and instructions, but now they don't guarantee it anymore.)
