There is a new thread around here somewhere. I'm not going to bother posting a link since I'm on my phone right now.

If they are going to give every issue the same $10 off any used game 30 and up, why not just make it like a running deal for unlocked members and use the space for something else? A coupon for Dead or Alive? Really? Another headset coupon? Yeah, I know, bitch and moan, but I can't be the only one who feels this way. Is the best way to voice my opinion on the unboxed forum, or should I write a letter, or what?

There was one, I think it died because no one cared.

Obviously they don't want abuse (like buying games for friends / others), so they limit how many you get. Sure it sucks that we lose a coupon over this, but every magazine (to my knowledge) has pushed their used sales in some way, so removing it would result in another logically replacing it.

You're not the only one, but you should just accept it as you come off rather entitled. As I've posted earlier, most (90%) of these deals were only good because of a side factor (poor sales, GOTY edition coming out, etc) and the vast majority were only good because of a sale. Many months were redeemed later on because of some stroke of luck...

Mass Effect 3 PS3 CE dropped making it 10 dollars with coupon.
Deadliest Warrior got new MSRP and was dropped to $0 with coupon.
etc

Naturally I agree it sucks these don't suit you for a long period, but not every month is going to drop a popular game to 5 dollars so we can make hundreds flipping at Gamestop. The sooner you accept this, the better off you will be.

I do feel entitled when I pay for something lol. I'm not the kind of dude that would make an employee give me a sale price that ended the day before, but I will totally cop to being the dude that will write a letter to a Corporate HQ if I don't feel satisfied as a consumer. To each their own, but "entitled" is a label thrown around a little willy nilly, IMO.

I don't flip at all, either. Kind of presumptuous, but not really I guess considering the community. With the repeat coupons, I was thinking about like the deals you can claim in the RZ app, can those even be abused?

Anyways, I accept it as far as this issue is what it is, no reprinting it now lol, but I will voice my opinion through the proper channels, and I encourage everyone who is also disappointed with the coupons as of late to do the same!

Disappointing coupons this month. DoA5 would be the only game I'd buy from the list and I basically got it for $40 during the B2G1 free.

too bad about nothing stacking with sleeping dogs. wouldve been cool
