[quote name='radjago'][quote name='shrike4242'][quote name='Azul_KoolAid'][quote name='rebthor']The first rule of CAG is do not talk about CAG.
I have a quick message for you:
Do not talk about CAG [-X [/quote]
ok, What exactly is the policy about informing others of deals or CAG? I always thought the less people that know about CAG the better but maybe I'm in the minority on that.[/quote]
One of the really ugly issues about CAG is that deals tend to leak over to FatWallet and they get ruined, because those creatures tend to hoard it, toss it onto Ebay and ruin it for us who just want a copy for our own.
If I find something, I tell my fellow CAGs. I don't tell anyone else. If I'm asked out at a B&M store about where I heard of this, I tell them "On the Internet". Not a lie, just not specific on where it came from.
Too many jackasses outside of here that want to ruin it to make a quick buck. The less leaks we have, the less chance of that happening.
The only reason we managed to get anything from this "sale" was that FatWallet found out 6 hours later than we did.[/quote]
Actually, after taking a peak at the FW forums, I noticed their thread on this deal isn't nearly as big as ours. 44000+ views for this one vs 27000+ on theirs. I think the problem of people hoarding games for resale on ebay for profit could be blamed on us just as easily as FW.[/quote]
Good to know this thread had more views in it that the one on FW, which makes me think there might be less hoarding/eBaying of the games than the July sale.
With all the sales I've been through because of CAG, I've never, ever bought games to hoard. One copy for myself, and that was pretty much it. The very few times I bought extras were for fellow CAGs, never eBay.
