I had it. It was the worst service of anything I have ever had and customer service was a joke. Cancelled in November and they still owe me $200, but I've come to terms with the fact that I'm never going to see it.

The closest I ever did to douchebag hoarding was when I was abusing the GS trade-in promos and cleaning out local HWV to get enough fodder to trade into the several GS in the area. God, those were the days, I kind of miss them. I think $50 seed money or so got me Gears of War 2 LE, a Gears 2 LE I sold to Rocko for cost, a few more I sold for around $85-$90, and enough trade-in credit to get a MadCatz SF4 TE FightStick.

The best part was I was only clearing out everything once they were picked over too. I wonder how much I could've scored if I had been one of the first people into those sales.

We had it for 18 months and we liked it.

The broadband service was good for us, not great, it performed on par with the top tier DSL we had prior. Its performance was only slightly inferior to the FiOs we have now (less speed but better ping response with Uverse). We had some complications with a VPN but we found a work-around.

The gateway device was good, not great. . . but loads better than the POS device from Verizon (which is the worst performing wireless device I've ever used- in every aspect: Range, throughput, QoS, you name it.)

The HD television and DVR were the features we liked best. Being able to record multiple HD streams and still being able to watch a different HD channel blows FiOs out of the water ( Fios limits you to two HD streams max, which may or may not bother you- but having kids and DVRing two "grown up programs" means watching a low def channel).

The cable box we had was phenomenal, it was fast enough to allow you to "flip channels" with instantaneous results- Something I haven't been able to do since the 90's- and I miss it now that we're with Fios.

All that being said, I do believe the Uverse experience varies greatly and depends on their local infrastructure. I would ask someone nearby with it how their experience is.

FWIW, we never had bad CS with their support except for an event following my landscaper cutting the line when he trenched for our retaining wall. Every other time was a quick fix after a typical 20-30 minute phone wait.

Supply and demand. If you have the supply, and the demand is there, then by all means, profit on it. It's not something I partake in myself because I have a pretty steady paycheck, but if I didn't, it would probably be a pretty good way to cover my bills.

Watching the Knicks game right now on NBA TV. It's in "HD" but it does not look good. Macroblocking is out of control during any action.

Nice, I bought a neck knife with it. Thanks dude!

I just don't get how you can make a ton of profit in flipping a brand new game. Seems like you would be loosing money. I know we are cags so we get things fairly cheap, I got mass effect for 40 through some creative coupons but even with that I would need to sell 5 of them to make 100 bucks. I just dot see how it works unless you are convincing people to pay well over the asking price but even that I can't see because the supply is there. I mean if that's your thing I have no real problem with it i am just confused.

CEs sell out quickly.

Morning, OTT.

I just had a bowl of Dulce de Leche Cheerios...I think that Cheerios have finally jumped the shark.

They were good, but do I really need caramel flavored cereal?

Caramel goes better with EVERYthing. To a lesser extent, butterscotch as well.

There is frosted covered cinnamon toast crunch now too.

I clicked a button to buy a copy, will click a few more buttons to sell it, then put it in the mailbox on the way out. The only way I would buy a CE is if I could get it easy. If I get $40 out of this it will be worth it.

Are the ME3 CE's selling for that much?
__

Speaking of CE's, I still think I have the DL codes for the Original ME unused. It says they expire on the card, but I've read somewhere that they can still be used.

I'll prolly wait till XBOX live shuts down and then sell them! Thats how I roll.
