[DEAD] FREE shipping & good deals on USED games from GameFly

Well, this has pretty much convinced me to sign up for Gamefly. Going with the 2 month pre-paid with the free mag subscription. Looking forward to seeing how speedy they are with shipments.
 
ALL of my games shipped today.

Hell yes. Can't wait.. Red Dead Revolver, Rallisport Challenge 2, Manhunt, Outlaw Golf 2, Full Spectrum Warrior and 007 EoN, six games i'd been wanting for a looooooong time.. Finally! All i'm missing now is Top Spin!
 
[quote name='CheapyD']Well, I just pulled the trigger on The Guy Game. Hey, it might be rare someday, since the lawsuit calls for it to be pulled from the shelf. :wink:[/quote]

Asked my brother about that (he's a manager of an EB) and he said he received no notice.. asked at Rhino, GameCrazy, and another EB.. no notice to pull anything.. I think it was a cheap ploy to sell more copies..
 
Everything I ordered except for Sudeki is showing as shipped. Hopefully Sudeki will pop over to shipped soon - I think they charged me for it already, anyway.

Aaah.. so they didn't restrict sales on it, they just restricted further distribution. I may have to pick it up then, it should.. eventually.. hopefully.. be rare.

It will be pulled from the shelves as soon as a Judge rules on it.
How can it not be?
 
Yeah, but that could be months away. I doubt that the judge is going to rush on a drunken underage kid who flashed her boobs.
 
Crap. Street Racing Syndicate is 16.99.. still 49.99 new and 44.99 used at EB.. Is it worth it?

Ooh.. and they just got MechAssault 2 in stock for 39.99..
 
Sweet. As well as subscribing and spending some time looking through their site also picked up Champions of Norrath (finally) for $9.44 shipped.

Question to everyone: How long has this Gamefly sale been going on for?
 
I guess the only things that are on sale are the 9.99 games or something.. they'll probably go back up a bit after the new year.. but Gamefly almost always has great deals.. but on January 9th, the free shipping ends :(

Was very nice of them to have this sale. Still debating on whether or not to pick up SRS.
 
Even if they do bring their prices back up I've noticed they're still super cheap. So it's good I got in on subscribing now, seeing the "keep it" prices has been making me drool for hours.

I knew I should have dropped the $20 on this when I saw it at EB earlier.

its a fun but sort of hard game. I got it over at Blockbuster CD only for 9.99 .. I played it for around 3 hours till i got bored with it. I must be doing something wrong cause i was winning easy with a 300 hp motor but when i jack it up to 500 hp my car is sliding all over the freaking place. .. I thought it was a nice buy for 10 dont know if i would give 17
 
Silent Hill 4 ($18) and Demon Stone ($20) are still calling my name. Now to buy or not to buy? That is the question.....

Hell, Way of the Samurai 2 ($20) is calling too, although much more faintly. ;)

EDIT: Just saw these went down a couple bucks. Now they are screaming at me. :D
 
My Christmass Orders shipped today... not bad, 5 days to ship with a holiday weekend. If I didn't travel so much I'd sign up for the service.
 
[quote name='Scorch']Ooh.. and they just got MechAssault 2 in stock for 39.99..[/quote]

Heh, funny considering it's not even officially released until tomorrow. So basically, if you buy it from them, you're getting a new copy because you would be the FIRST one to play the copy you get (since it takes a week for them to send and get back a game anyway, and they certainly haven't had it for a week). Oh, and $39.99 is actually the "keep it" price, I didn't see it listed in the Used Games section.

I've had one game ship out of four total so far.
 
OK I received my PSO Ep III for GC today from Gamefly. It looks practically brand new, except without the wrapper. The disc is scratch-free, as if nobody had ever touched it. The manual and case and all the included paper and cards are in brand new condition. Just to let you know to get some worries off your chest. :)

..the "keep it" price IS the "used game" price.

Don't check the box that says "yes, I want a free 10 day trial to GameFly". Wasn't this covered already?

I just ordered three titles. Thanks for the heads up on the deal! If I had more time to play games, I would be a member of their service for sure.
 
The two games I ordered on Monday night have shipped (Riddick & Hitman Contacts). I'm just waiting on Rainbow Six:BA to ship and I'm all set. As long as I don't find anymore I really want. Must fight.. urge.

Thanks to the OP as I now have someplace to buy used games in good shape. And three games for just over $36 shipped ain't a bad deal.

How are you creating an account? I never ran into a page that had 4 options to choose from.
 
My Riddick and Manhunt shipped today. Ordered them yesterday. I might have to pull the trigger on the guy game as well.

Does gamefly disinfect the discs before they ship them out? Because I know what half of the guys were doing while playing that game... I don't want to get an STD from handling a used disc :?

"Mommy... I got herpes from The Guy Game disc." :(

Also, I noticed ESPN NFL 2K5 dropped down to $8.99. Do you guys think there will be some price drops on some more games?
 
Damnit! I just pulled the trigger on another game... Showdown: Legends of Wrestling was lowered to $9.99. AHHHHH! I can't stop! Someone help me!

:lol:

These are pretty good deals, hope they stay that way.
As for the whole account thing, you basically sign up without checking the free trial box, and when you buy something, the first item will be charged shipping. A couple hours later though, they correct it and take the shipping cost off [you can go to Billing History to see if they do that]. At least they SHOULD do that, if they don't... dunno, guess you're screwed.

Aw, crap. Must...resist...

Thanks for the heads-up on the lowered price. These deals may be too hard for me to pass up.

Also, thanks to those that helped in answering my question on the duration of these prices. I got a timeframe in mind now (me must get more $).

I just went into create an account. Oh well, I'll just sign up the regular way everyone else is while they order and hope the shipping gets adjusted to free afterwards.

Just start the checkout process and eventually you will come to a page where you must make an account. Very easy and simple.

So did I. I know it got bad reviews, but Jake Roberts, Ricky Steamboat, Steiner, Hogan, Macho Man, Sting? I can't resist the roster regardless of how bad the game is. Plus I must own every wrestling game I can get my hands on. Sold at $10.
 
hi guys. i'm considering snagging star ocean for the ps2. i'm wondering if 25 bucks is a good deal for used. i'm not sure what the average price is for a used copy. juz wanted to see some input.

Hell yeah man, I'm a sucker for wrestling games too. This game was $14.99 last night, and when I saw $9.99 tonight, I didn't think one second before ordering.

Hopefully they won't mark any other games down. If Splinter Cell: PT hits $9.99 tomorrow, then I will have to pull the trigger again.

get it from gamefly. there is used one on ebay going for $29.00 plus around $3.00 for shipping.
ebay link
 
Showdown is definately worth 10. I bought it the first week when it was 39 and i've loved it since then..

Halo 2= 29.99? That's insane. If MK:D goes to 19.99, I just may have to get it.

I think I can hold off on Splinter Cell:pT just because I never beat the first one, it was so damned hard, yet satisfying. Plus PT should be Platnium Hit by March when Chaos Theory comes out, so you'll be able to pick that up for $15 new or so, keep that in mind if your backlogged for games.

I'm wondering if I should pitch in for Toca, Thief, Rainbow Six 3, SRS, Four Swords, if they drop to $10 or less.

Any opinions on Ghost Hunter for PS2?

I heard Thief and Four Swords are pretty good. SRS I hear isn't that great, but $9.99 would be hard to say no to.

As for Ghost Hunter, I haven't played or read any reviews on it.

*edit*

How is Sudeki btw?

Also, if The Guy Game drops under $19.99 I might have to pull the trigger on it. I just don't like the idea of it being "used". Yuck.

Sudeki is quite decent, I got it at 40 two months back, and enjoyed it a lot. at 8 bucks its a steal I believe, because I was only dissatisfied by it being as short as it was. I was thinking of grabbing one or two more games- but decided to hold off. I need to beat a few games in this week before RE4's release, because as soon as that drops I wont put time into anything else.
 
I just got my Mega Man Anniversary. The bottom of the disc looks good but the top had some kind of white fuzz on it... kinda weird... Fairly satisfied though, I'd buy from them again.
 
I ordered 13 (!) games off these guys, 8 of them have shipped (started shipping yesterday, 2 more shipped today), but I imagine it won't be till Monday that I get them (they're based out of CA, and I'm in PA).

For the record, I bought:
Deus Ex:Invisible War- 9.99
Mega Man Anniversary: 14.99
Riddick: 9.99
Spiderman 2:14.99
Splinter Cell:pT-14.99
Halo 2: 29.99
Tales of Symphonia: 24.99
Full Spectrum Warrior: 9.99
Thief: Deadly Shadows - 9.99
Rainbow Six 3 : 9.99
Rainbow Six 3 Black Arrow: 14.99
Burnout 3 Takedown: 32.99
Psi Ops: 9.99

I just bought my X Box for X-Mas, and this sale was GREAT to get me caught up to speed on games I've missed (with my neighbor providing some of the others, such as Crimson Skies, Fable, etc)

Disposable income is baaaaaad.

Sure hope you used one of the cheap ass links! ;)
 
6 of my games shipped on the 29th...waiting for 3 more...i hope i get the 6 games by the weekend...it should be here in a couple days since they ship from LA and i'm from the San Francisco Bay area...will the USPS deliver on New Years? im still tempted to order a couple more games, maybe Showdown since i was a big wrestling fan back in th day, but i hear there's lots of glitches in that game...any other games that i should get for xbox? i basically got most of the top selling xbox games under $10, other than Driv3r and Psi Ops...thanks
