Actually, I'll give a (little) proof myself. One friend of mine just pointed out to me that she had a trade cancelled and returned as damaged...and when it arrived, it had a huge slash in the case, like a boxcutter mark.
Intentional? No. NORAM's fault? Absolutely, for the most part.
I do...
You're putting words in my mouth in several places there. For one, I didn't claim that happened to everyone's packages. Some people may have had things happen. But everyone says that NORAM does it on purpose, like it's some grand conspiracy. That's the part I take offense to.
Also, I never said...
Damaged how, though? If it is another disk and not the original sent (proof?) then who is to say that the person who sent that disk didn't just stuff it into an envelope with no padding?
Awesome, fine, whatever. I imagine I'll get banned from the website for daring to stir up the slightest bit of controversy. All of you enjoy, and if you feel fine about what you're doing, then who am I to judge?
Considering there's a clause in there that says something to the effect of "they don't have to return merchandise that is not accepted" but they make an effort to anyway, I'd say that it's one of those deals where "you pays your money and you takes your chances."
I do feel for those who have...
I do. The people flipping for two bucks are just stupid. The people flipping for an artificially inflated 90 are intentionally trying to scam the system through a computer script gone haywire.
That's the difference.
Nope. That makes you pretty cool, since you own two copies to play with friends/family. Are you buying several copies of games to flip to Amazon?
Because that's what I was referring to.
Considering I've had posts deleted in the past, I'm assuming you're referring to what I'm saying as trolling?
I'm honestly curious why people buy a game from one retailer just to trade it in at another. It's like the people who buy cars at dealer auctions and then sell them on Craigslist. The...
You really believe that they intentionally damage games. Who's the insane one here?
Also, the Walmart in my area is really clean and nice. You could also get bubble wrap at the post office (overpriced) or at any local pack-and-ship store.
If you can show me one example where there is PROOF...
You don't understand, man. If he doesn't get the game back in time, he's going to have to eat like five bucks on a game HE NEVER INTENDED TO PLAY!
Do you know how terrible that would be? Something must be done.
Also, to those of you getting games damaged, a helpful suggestion. If you send...
Yeah, how dare they ship packages the most logical way for them, without personally consulting you first, thereby depriving you of the right to return the game you bought from gamestop for the sole purpose of scamming a higher trade value from them!
How dare they, sir! I'm so offended on your...
People who try to send this stuff to Amazon in the hopes of getting this value on a trade deserve to have their stuff smashed with a hammer and get banned from trading ever again.
I'm all for people trading in games they no longer play so they can buy new games. It's people buying and sending...
Per some on this board who shall remain nameless, scream and yell at Amazon until they credit you for your wasted time, then start a class-action lawsuit.
(Actually, just chill a day or two. There's no UPC directly on the remote, so nothing for them to scan. They probably have to check it in...
And therein lies the problem. You're asking a bunch of spoiled brats who think "the law is on theyre [sic] side and how their [sic] going to hire undercover detectives to BREAK THIS EVIL GAME-THEFT RING AND TAKE NORAM DOWN ARGLEBLARGLE!!!111!1." to think logically. Confoosious, people are...
