Plus there is a much wider selection of games to use (every store I've got to has had Iridium Runners and multiple Golden Compass, Bee Movie, Manhunt 2 (PS2, not PSP), and I've found lots of other stuff like Spyro, Cars Mater National, THPG, etc, that work well too.
And I've just bought the BB stuff while I was out looking for PSP games for myself (not too much luck with that so far - the store I was at tonight had all of 1 single PSP game for sale). I still have another 11 games to bring to GS (two stacks each with an Iridium/Golden Compass/Bee Movie + some other filler). I plan on hitting the Mall with 2 GS stores in it tomorrow and converting another $43.50 into about $80 more at GS.

I thought about this flip, but passed. After 2 weeks of burning myself out mega flipping, not to mention what will certainly be more crooked looks from flunkly store clerks, I just can't bring myself to find 10 PS2 games to make $25-$30 in GS credit. Too much work, zero motivation at this point. The $10 bonus @ GS was great though, $10 in BBV credit converted to $20 in GS credit on just 2 games. Then flipping crap like Blacksite 51 back to BBV for $33, when it only cost $17 in GS credit, I considered a good use of my time and gasoline. Conversely, finding 3 or 4 dozen PS2 games just to make a few added bucks in GS credit would just be work at this point. The earlier flips were actually somewhat fun on top of being profitable.....
