Just like with Amazon trade-in, it probably all depends on how close you are to their processing center - especially given that some of them have gone via media mail (which is risky as they could get rejected by the PO since games can't go via media mail). Why can't any of this crap ever be on the West Coast?

Heh, I think this half.com is a branch of ebay right? I think it's funny that ebay is defrauding the post office (It's completely arbitrary that video games on disks are not "media" but a blue ray, or DVD, or music CD is -- but that is the rules).

I think that the only penalty, though, is that the post office can open media mail (so I guess there is a risk that your postal carrier helps himself to a new video game) but then they just charge the recipient extra on delivery. So, I guess they are just risking getting charged extra and they figure that they save money if they don't get caught.
