Stay the away from this program. I just sent in new games... ratchet and clank all 4 one was rejected for "being an unauthorized copy". Good riddance.

So far I did 7 transactions and all of them went through fine. However, the last two took over 2 weeks each to process.

Dont send in games without barcodes, brokitten.

Yeah I'm sure the copy I bought from BBY didn't have a barcode... I just grabbed a copy and walked out the front door. Derp derp.

Well they accepted my 1 copy from BB with no problems.

My first shipment was credited today!

Same here. I'm in love.

Hm. Think I might have to jump on PS3 Rayman Origins for $35/30 for a very good copy....

So I emailed them about being in Hawaii and their poor choice of shipping options (Parcel / Media Mail) they told me if my order expired and they received the games they will send the games back to me. So looks like I'll have 6 games sitting in the postal system for awhile, without any means of tracking them.

isnt it as long as its postmarked by the 7th day?

The label they have print looks really weird. It seems the company pay for pastage when USPS charge them? We leave postage line empty?

I was planning on paying for 1st class w/ tracking but sice the barcode is needed and they emphasize nothing else... Im unsure how one can prove they sent the package if it does get lost/ confisgated... any thoughts on costmer service etc?

Sent a game to them and everything worked. The transaction went through a week after I sent it.

Without tracking, I just crossed my fingers and hoped they got it, which they did.

just got paid. took 12 days. I sent in a copy of Rayman Origins for PS3 and another for X360, both sealed. they paid me $63.70

Sent a single PS3 game a little over a week ago, as my first attempt with this program, and today got a rejection e-mail.

The reason stated was 'The Disk has scratches and could not be refurbished.Companion disks have scratches.'

It will be interesting to see what I get back, because it was scratch free when I sent it. Not sure what they mean by companion discs, as this was a single disc game.

I've sent hundreds of games to Amazon, never had a rejection. Also, sent lots in to Gazelle & Toys R Us when they had trade programs, never a rejection from them either.

Yeah shit is too hit or miss. Values are decent here and there but it's not even close to guaranteed you'll get credit.

So you can't send game via media mail but you can with parcel post...? So wouldn't pArcelpost is best to ship using the initial label vs the 2nd reprint media mail label then?

You're better of marking games down to very good, since the difference is roughly a dollar on most games and you wont have to deal with it not being accepted because the case has "light to moderate wear"

Sent 3 games (UC3, Madden 12 & Resistance 3) in last Monday and received money through Paypal today, $56 and change total.

Just rechecked my confirmation email and they actually upgraded a game I sent as "very good" to "like new" so I got about an extra buck.
