CAGiversary!
I recently searched the web and found a great site for cheaper than normal games. I guess you have to be a retail employee but f it. go ahead and do it. Retail employees blow anyways.
 
good god, don't post that link. YOU HAVE TO WORK RETAIL! If you do not work @ retail, they will charge you full price.

Ugh, this will not end well.

Uh, no, that's not the way this site works. They actually check to see if you work where you say you do. Quit trying to abuse the system.

umm actually we get this "deal" all the time and it ONLY works if you work for MICROSOFT!!!![/quote]

No.. it works if you work at a retail store that sells Microsoft products.
 
What is it to you anyways? don't act like most of the CAGers here havent pulled shadiness to get a deal. I hope more people do it now.
 
I'm just curious, because you seem to be the first person to post stupid shit like "this is illegal" "this is wrong" whenever someone posts something shady, so this begs the question. Why does it matter to you what other people do so much? Is your day job being a cop or something? Or do you just get a rush off that fake feeling of authority?

EDIT: This is to Scorch be the way

oh, I thought it also works for micrsoft employees since my freands who work for microsoft get discounted games, well maybe that's another thing, anyhow the vast majority of CAGers aren't in on it.

You don't get it, when they figure out you don't work where you say you work, they will charge you full price. And I don't think most CAGs are into shady practices, just an annoying, but unfortunately vocal, few.

Mods will remove the link from your post when they come on.

Talking to me?

Oh, edit. Yeah, me. Fake feeling of authority? What's to say I'm not a cop? (I'm not, by the way) I just catch threads on the front page and post "Illegal?" "Wrong?" etc because.. I dunno. It bugs me that posts regarding bootleg things, how to bootleg and whatnot get through.. I don't mean to seem like a dick when I reply, and if I do, I apologize.. I just hate discussions on illegal activity regarding game piracy. Especially when I own a ton of games and people are like "hey! download soandso here!", it just angers me. That and the fact that i'm between jobs leaves me with quite a bit of spare time. But since people are starting to fuss about it, I'll stop. Sorry.

Try it and see? I've done it and IT WORKS.

Perhaps you got away with fraud, then. I wouldn't recommend pushing your luck, but obviously I can't stop you. Hopefully most other people are not that dishonest.

they will check if you work there and you will end up having to pay full price. i can't wait until you get caught and they make you pay full price. with the crap us people in retail have to put up with (pretty much having to babysit kids half the time), we should at least get a little something for our low paying jobs (most low pay anyways). i hope a mod locks this soon too.
 
Out of curiousity, what is MS's reason for selling the games to retail employees at a low price? Is it in the hopes that after realizing how fun the games are they will push the games on consumers harder?
 
[quote name='wubb']Out of curiousity, what is MS's reason for selling the games to retail employees at a low price? Is it in the hopes that after realizing how fun the games are they will push the games on consumers harder?[/quote]

The idea being, retail employees take training on the site to learn about the games/hardware/etc to be better able to sell the product. In return for taking this training they get games for an extremely small amount of cash.

However, I do hope MS begins cracking down on asshats like the OP who abuse the offer. I'd love to see someone arrested for fraud over abuse of the retail training site.

And.. this is illegal, it needs locked, and the link needs erased.
 
who freaking cares leave the site up and let them charge the fools who tryto rip off Msn full price. Just be careful when you open the door never know when it might be bill gates coming to kick your ass for trying to rip him off :shock:

Ah, so you have to go through web training and stuff to earn points towards cheap games? Makes sense. Does the training give reasons why Xbox is better than PS2 and GC? That could be funny stuff.

That's the exact reason. When I did retail many many years ago, M$ wanted people to learn the product and know the product so they could push the product. If you know it, you could recommend it honestly.

I'm sure the practice here is the same.

One of my former co-workers works at BB, and he would get all types of insane rebates and discounts for doing online tests that vendors would set up for them to learn about the product.

He picked up a $225 rebate off of a cost-priced HP 945 digital camera, as one example. Another one was a Pentium 3.0C, an Intel 865 motherboard and a copy of Windows XP Pro for like $199.

I'm sure M$ is no different in this case.

Last time I checked, fraud was a crime, and this smells like fraud to me. For this guy, I think each game he purchsed illegally should be one count of fraud.

Better yet, have the person who's ID was given up as an accessory, if they gave it up willingly.
 
Someone should pull this link. People are going to get charged full price since they check your pay records to validate you are empoyeed via retail.

What does living in Chicago have to do w/ the deal he posted? Does living in Chicago automatically constitute being labeled a criminal? Wow, thank you for one of the most ignorant statements of the year. It's about time you moved into 2004, Al Capone's been dead a long time :roll:

Check the OP's location.
 
[quote name='pimp tyranny']as much as i'd love those prices, it would be hard to fake being an employee[/quote]

Don't decline to do it because it is difficult, decline to do it because it is fraud.
