			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I saw a couple episodes of this show at my in-laws in 2008 and loved it!  Not having HBO myself, I pre-ordered the season 1 set on Feb 16th, 2009.  It was originally scheduled to be released on March 24th, 2009.<br />
<br />
But it wasn't released.  No excuses given, no reason to believe it wasn't canceled altogether.<br />
<br />
Nearly a year passed, and I gave it little thought.  Then about a week ago, Amazon tells me I should have it Feb 9th.<br />
<br />
And here it is, can't wait to watch it:<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div>I got Borderlands for the 360 from Goozex about a week ago.  The disc got loose during shipment and got scuff marks all over it.  No deep scratches, but it didn't play or install.  I called a bunch of local places to see if they had a disc resurfacing machine.  No luck.  Wound up giving a negative to the sender, even though I felt really bad about it.  He was really cool though, and accepted the feedback.<br />
<br />
Then I read about boiling discs.<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=5097&amp;pictureid=11789" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this)"><img src="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=5097&amp;pictureid=11789&amp;thumb=1" border="0" alt="" /></a></div><br />
<br />
I figured what the hell, I have nothing to lose.  I gave it a shot and then cleaned it with this:<br />

<div align="center"><a href="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=11790" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this)"><img src="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=11790&amp;thumb=1" border="0" alt="" /></a></div><br />
<br />
This is the same kit I've had since 1996 when I bought it at Funcoland.  I was somewhat sceptical, but lo and behold:<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=11791" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this)"><img src="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=11791&amp;thumb=1" border="0" alt="" /></a></div><br />
<br />
Awesome!  Now to see what I can do for the trader with Goozex!<br />

<br />
So there it is.  All that for $199 shipped!  I didn't need another PS3, so I'm passing the deal on to a friend of mine.  All except LBP that is.  ;)<br />
<br />
Subtotal of Items:    $567.00  <br />
Shipping &amp; Handling:    $0.00  <br />
Customers Vote:    -$368.00  <br />
   ------  <br />
Total for this Order:    $199.00<br />
<br />
Edit:<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=3648" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this)"><img src="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=3648&amp;thumb=1" border="0" alt="" /></a></div><br />
<br />
This is all the video game related shopping I did on the black friday weekend or just before.  You know most of the deals, but Assassin's Creed was $7.49 at Hollywood Video after their BF discount.  And no I didn't wait on The Last Remnant, so I got screwed out of $10. :cry: But the Lost Planet Colonies for $10 made up for that! :D<br />
<br />
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=3650" class="highslide" onclick="return hs.expand(this)"><img src="http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=4760&amp;pictureid=3650&amp;thumb=1" border="0" alt="" /></a></div><br />
<br />
And a couple more from a few days before.  If you can't make out the tags, House of the Dead 2 &amp; 3 was $9.99 (new) at Record &amp; Tape Traders and FFT was $4.98 at Target on clearance.<br />
