FAQ:
How do I get those sticky yellow EB stickers off my case?
Buy a bottle of Goo Gone. They're usually $5 or less. They last forever and are a good purchase if you buy lots of used games. You can find them at drug stores or places like Wal Mart.

The bottle looks like this:

When is the EBgames morning update?
Usually between 7am and 7:30am eastern time, Monday through Friday. There are no updates on some holidays.

How do I know the update happened?
The number of in stock games will drop to zero, then rise back up. This takes less than a minute.

I had game X in my cart, but it disappeared while I was checking out. What happened?
Someone else beat you to it. Just because an item is in your cart, doesn't mean it's reserved for you until you finish checking out.

How do you know how many copies of game X are in stock?
When the item is in your cart, change the quantity to a large number (like 99). When the page refreshes, the quantity will be reduced to the number available.

Are there any coupons I could use to save money?
CAG15 gives you 15% off used merchandise.
CAG16 gives you 16% off $50 or more worth of used merchandise.
SAVER gives you free shipping on orders containing used games and accessories. For some reason, Gameboy games do not work with SAVER.

[quote name='Ronz']Anyway, looks like Atelier Iris got a price drop. Says 44.99 on the page but if you add it to your cart the new price of 26.99 is reflected.

http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/256166.asp[/QUOTE]

Rockin', dude. I'd been coveting it at $33 a/c but was not permitting myself given the backlog. At $21 a/c, I am permitted! Just about makes up for the update now ALWAYS occuring during the 10 minutes I'm in the car.
 
[quote name='Ronz']It's nice to watch the update in the morning and not really want anything anymore. All I do is endlessly refresh the Phoenix Wright link in hopes that MAYBE it will come in stock. But even if it did I doubt i'd be fast enough.

Nice spot! I jumped all over this one!
 
Yah, I noticed when I was working in the EB I was employed at until we closed the end of last week, prices had been going up on a lot of things for about a week or 2 before that. Apparently we were just going to GS more expensive pricing, not vice versa. I know we also adopted the GS (lower) payscale for any new hires. They like making things more expensive and then shafting the employees pay-wise apparently.
 
Hmm... nothing for me, it seems. I think I'll wait on American Sk8land till it sees a small price drop.

^Whoa, that was a coincidental link ;)
 
[quote name='Genocidal']Why the hell not. I will soon be the proud owner of Eternal Eyes at a whopping price of $0.79 shipped :lol:[/QUOTE]


EB told me to screw off when I asked for a price adjustment on Pac-N-Roll, so I'm going to order this game with the saver, cag15, and edge coupons all by itsself since I know that they will lose money sending this to me.
 
Discussion question: why are stock listings not appearing on the product pages? (i.e. "which closest stores carry this game in new or used condition")
 
[quote name='geepgal']Discussion question: why are stock listings not appearing on the product pages? (i.e. "which closest stores carry this game in new or used condition")[/QUOTE]
It's been up and down for me the last few days. Could be starting to integrate with GameStop, perhaps.
 
I purchased Eternal Eyes for PS1 for 91 cents shipped after CAG 15 and SAVER why not? Gaming-Age gave it a good review.:)

Oh noes! If botticus said it, then it must be true!!! He's the Update GURU!! :)

On another note, buy this damn gem already:

Shadow of Destiny (PS2) $7.99 b/c

And if you've missed all the sales lately, buy this too:

Mark of Kri (PS2) $7.99 b/c

And... er..:

Disaster Report (PS2) $8.99 b/c

Yeah they're not the cheapest of the cheap. But they goddam rock. Thank you for your time :)
 
[quote name='psiufoxx2']Oh noes! If botticus said it, then it must be true!!! He's the Update GURU!! :)
[/QUOTE]

psiufoxx forces a title change :cry:
 
Has anyone here ever bought the supposed used RE4 Collectors Edition for the PS2?

Did you get everything you were supposed to get, in the correct case, or is it just a mislisting?
 
Got my Taiko Drum Master today - NO DRUM!:bomb: Just called customer support, they said it was supposed to come with the drum and they don't know why it didn't... They are supposed to be calling me back within 48 hours to let me know what's up...
 
I was in an EB and I noticed about 8 PO copies of Fable and then saw one copy of Lost Chapters . . . priced at $9.99.

So, after Edge, I got it for $9.00 (would have been $7.50 with the CAG discount :whistle2:()
 
[quote name='franz ferdinand']I got this today, and despite what it says, it did not come with the drum :p

Thanks anyway, though.[/QUOTE]

Same here, I took it back to eb and got my money back. They said that they just pennied out the game yesterday and they just threw them away so I couldnt exchange it. Also koudelka came yesterday and it was scratched up to hell and wouldnt even load.
 
[quote name='craven_fiend']Monday's suck.[/QUOTE]

Yes they do. Strangely, it's my best day in the week since I only have one class
 
[quote name='radjago']Uh oh.

Sounds like somebody has a case of the Mondays.[/QUOTE]

Ding, ding, ding we have a winner, first person with the office space refence.

I guess the good thing is I've already got my Monday working out of the way.
 
[quote name='craven_fiend']Ding, ding, ding we have a winner, first person with the office space refence.[/QUOTE]
Do I win an ass-kicking?
 
[quote name='radjago']Do I win an ass-kicking?[/QUOTE]

Nope, just a thumbs up, like everyone else.

That is of course once I get around to taking a picture of my hand in a cast.

--Tore a tendon in my thumb. When the tendon tore, it took out a chunk of bone with it.
 
[quote name='pimp tyranny']eww that sounds incredibly painful, and drink more milk![/QUOTE]

Yeah it was and still is. The cast is a little excessive though. It run from just below my elbow to just under my knuckles.

As for more milk, yeah definitely.
 
[quote name='PenguinMaster']And when do you feel like waiting till 8?[/QUOTE]

sometimes if i have nothing better to do, then i don't care so much. i'll sit here browsing the web or reading. but today i have things to get done.
