Hurray for my wallet too. Looking forward to the monthly deal though haha

I also would like to know which day this monthly sale starts.

(>^_^)>

Just got my DNF for ps3, pristine condition, manual, box, cover. Maybe there is 1 minimal disc chip, that does not interfere with the game at all

Those of you claiming to not have chips, take a closer look.

I thought mine were perfect, but I decided to reinspect after seeing some pictures here. All five discs have a few very tiny chips along the edges as mentioned/pictured in this thread. Of course, they're small enough that I would have never have noticed them if others hadn't mentioned it. I'm sure some are worse than others, but the ones I see on my discs are minor enough to be complete inconsequential, at least to me.

How do you get free shipping?

Just received LA Noire. Like new condition and codes were intact. Sucks that others are getting crappy orders.

Got Bored and check gamestop, idk if this is them leaking something again, but makes me glad I skipped LA Noire.

They have LA Noire: The Complete Edition as coming out 11-8-2011

Edit: never-mind its on rockstars website and its PC only. back to hoping LA Noire will be $15 or less in the monthly deal.

Got my MvC3 today. Looking forward to seeing what the monthly deals are.

gah when i finally figure out a way to pay for these, the sales end, o well at least I can pay off those pesky credit card debts

Yeah I didn't think I had any until someone posted a pic. My copy of Portal 2 has 2 small chips in it that don't affect gameplay. Makes me wonder if it wears out the disc drive faster than a normal disc though. It's not going to be something most people will notice unless they know what they're looking for.

I wouldn't think so. The edges of the disc don't contact anything during use... I suppose it would have a very minute effect on the balance of the disc, which would only effect the spindle motor. Having worked on dozens of 360 DVD drives, I've never seen a spindle motor wear out.

^I find that only Gamefly discs have these teeth marks. I wonder where they come from? I agree that it's not from the drives because I have played my original copy of Halo 3 like a billion times across different systems and it doesn't even have a scratch, let alone teeth marks.

Received my first GameFly used game, Crysis 2. Happy overall. Disc had some shmutz, but was easily wiped off with spit and a finger. LE code worked like a charm, and everything else was like-new. Will definitely shop there again.

Earlier in the thread there was a link to an article that stated Gamefly was blaming USPS for it. Apparently USPS's disc sorter ends up nicking the discs when sorted and Gamefly said it was not their fault. Was like 2 year old article but I suppose if nothing's changed that it could still be USPS's fault?

Car 2, lego pirate copies came in today. Great condition like always.

son of a.. First my mafia 2 has the disk rings on it and now i read about the edge nicks, get home, and find about a dozen of them. should have returned it when i had the chance but ill use this as an excuse not to get anymore disks from them. I consider it lessoned learned and it only cost me 7 bucks. Wish i could break away from gamestop as easily but im working on it.

You have a way to exchange that disc.

Think about what you just wrote.

I'm not gonna say in this thread because i have a feeling mods are against.

You mean trade it in and buy a new copy?

As stated earlier, the disk chips on the edges have no effect at all on the game, so there is no reason to exchange the disk or stop using gamefly.
If you are so worried about pristine copies, why the heck are you buying used.

HEY! There's 10,000 miles on this used car I bought.. WTF
