Thanks. I feel like an idiot since this information was already in the OP.
 
[quote name='k0d1akattack']Lighten up, every state has their crap reputation for something. If it went out to someone in my state I probably would have assumed they didn't know how they had to have an xbxox 360 to play the game.[/QUOTE]

I hear you on that point but my point still stands valid. Pork Roll boosts said point tenfold.
 
As a follow up to my initial post about getting the book with the shredded dust jacket that was actually glued to the hardcover:

I emailed Glyde directly since I wasn't going to eat the $3 return shipping fee they charge and get a measly $1.25 back when all was said and done.

Today I got a response to my email. They credited backed the full price I paid for the book at $4.25 which I can transfer to a checking account, and they gave me another free shipping code to use by the end of the month. The response said nothing about returning the book, so I guess I get to keep it. I'll probably give it to a library, but I'm not even sure a library would take this book, unless they took it then re-sold it at a library used book sale.

Had I actually paid for shipping, I don't know if they would have reimbursed that too.

But for this situation, it worked out well by emailing them directly.
 
I got my copy of Dragonage Origins today. I got the shipping email yesterday so that was good. Took about 9 days to get it which is a touch long but doable. Game was rated in excellent condition and it was, everything was included as well and looked good.
For my $6 test of this company id say its a go for games if you dont mind the wait.

Just to re-iterate a point that's been made a few times - Glyde isn't selling you the game and has no direct control over what gets sent to you.

The reason I will continue to use Glyde is the customer service. Every time I've had a problem they've replied in a timely manner and they've actually addressed the issue.

Ya, I've bought and sold dozens of stuff on glyde so far.

I only had a problem once where the game I sent out didn't get registered in processing.

I emailed them they gave me credit for what the game was worth noting that I've had an account with them in good standing for a long time. As far as buying and selling used stuff goes, I definitely recommend glyde.

QFT. I've only had to contact CS when something I bought wasn't up to expectations, and both times they came through. I'll be contacting them again shortly because I game I bought with the free shipping code wouldn't install on my Xbox even though it was supposed to be in "excellent" condition (deep scratch on the disc).

Oddly enough, it gave me the option to keep the game with the same $2 penalty -- but I went with a return to the seller instead. Hopefully I can get a refund on that $2 and an additional free shipping code.
 
[quote name='slidecage']might came from a different region?

can you post pictures .... was thinking maybe it was put into a new UMD holder (since the games do break i picked up a few games off gamefly that was in replacement game holders (not the case but the UMD DISC holder was replaced that holds the little game in place[/QUOTE]

sorry it took a while. pix of 'AoD' UMD, front & back: ignore the digicam reflection, LOL. 'region 1' case insert. item was completely y-fold shrink-wrapped. so on the front, there's no 'UMD universal media disc' in the center, 'PSP' in LHS corner, or 'controller icon' in RHS corner. could it be b/c it's a reprint?

how far into the game do i have to play before i know it won't crash/is legit? TIA. btw, i already authorized payment to seller.

When you sell on glyde do they send you a bunch of there packaging before hand? I was surprised my game came in its own package instead of some usps one.

They mail you a Glyde bubble mailer with a shipping label applied inside another bubble mailer when you sell an item. It is slightly ridiculous but it works I guess.
 
I have had an interest in both of these games for quite sometime, I just don't know which one I want to get.

Bayonetta and Earth Defense Force: Insect Armageddon. I have played the demo for Bayonetta numerous times and really love it. EDF, I have never played so I really don't know what to expect. Which would you guys pick?

I would go with Bayonetta. I didn't even enjoy it as much as all of the game sites that gave it plenty of awards but Defense Force is not as good of a value. You're better off getting it's prequel which has a lot more of the charm that sort of got lost in the newer one that tried to add new things but did not make it any more enjoyable. Just my opinion though.

I would go with Bayonetta. :360: Bayo is slightly better than :ps3: I was told, but I played :ps3: version and had no problems with it.
 
When you see track package and that usps symbol does that mean you game was shipped?
 
[quote name='Jay']When you see track package and that usps symbol does that mean you game was shipped?[/QUOTE]
No, click the track package, it will tell you if it is shipped.
 
[quote name='kit352']That would explain the universal time delay on shipping. Few days to you and a few days to me.[/QUOTE]

Ya, the time that you get your games is usually around a little over a week from my experience(after purchase) due to them having to ship out the packaging to the seller but at least you know the seller won't be cutting corners on the packaging/shipment confirmation of your game which could easily have the game get damaged or lost on the way to your house.

It's seems silly at first glance but it's a solid idea that works IMO.
 
Finally got my game today, 10 days after I purchased it.

Game was in great shape, could have been listed "Excellent" if it had original case.

Previous owner had the decency to print out the cover of the game and insert it into a generic dvd case to make it look better though : )

Glyde is basically made for lazy sellers. You don't have to take pictures of the item, describe the item, answer buyer questions, find packaging, weigh the item, or print postage. Just list the item, wait for the glyde mailer, put the item in the mailer, dump it in a nearby mail box.:cool:
 
Finally heard back from Glyde they credited me back the shipping and supposedly I am getting a full credit for the game. Not really sure when I will get it though.
 
Well, what a douche... this person (from wonderful New Jersey, where I hear they have some kind of meat dish that is nice, but I am a little sissy vegetarian and thus cannot understand the allure) complains to glyde that the game wasn't in proper condition, and then never ends up sending it back in the mail. Glyde automatically credited my account once it became obvious he wasn't going to actually return it, but it is just lame my money was unavailable for a month since this guy decided to be such a turd.

I agree. The guy is a douche. I am glad Glyde made it right by releasing the funds to you and I do hope they ban him.

On the other hand I still await the arrival of the game I ordered.
 
There's definetely a pattern of the price of the game pending in your bank account, then dissapearing and crediting the amount back to your account, then finally clearing after you receive it.

For people like me on a tight budget this is dangerous because you think you have more money than you really do, so you spend that money and then this game clears and you could find yourself overdrawn.

Given I've done most of my selling on Glyde, I can't argue with that~
 
Done both selling and buying with Glyde and overall I think they provide a good service. This type of model, like Ebay, requires honest (or at least competent) people both selling and buying. I will not complain too much since I only paid $3 for my copy of COD2 but this time I was not very happy. The copy was listed as Excellent condition. This is Glyde's term for excellent.

Disc plays perfectly. May have minor scratches.
Case has no more than a few minor scratches.
No damage to game instructions.
No personal markings. Not a previous rental.

Now the disc does play and there is a manual but beyond that this was NOT a game in excellent condition. There were more than minor scratches and the disc was dirty...I need to wipe it down twice. The case was a mess...there were 2 stickers on the back and it was just beat up. The cover art was alright but the white is yellowish. This is most likely due to the fact the entire package reeks of smoke. Now my parent smoke so I grew up with it and really do not care what people do but I am a non-smoker. If you are a smoker and you do it inside then trust me your games reek of smoke and are most likely dirty. Please do not list your game as excellent because trust me they are not. Rant over.
 
Would you guys recommend listing something as good event though it is excellent to avoid getting screwed by a buyer?
 
[quote name='Jay']Would you guys recommend listing something as good event though it is excellent to avoid getting screwed by a buyer?[/QUOTE]

I guess it might depend on the difference in price and if you think there is any reason a buyer might be unhappy. I was obviously not happy as I stated above but I am not going to withhold my payment but a good listing in this case was 25 cents less and I would not have been upset at all then. To me personally, excellent condition would be close to like new you get from Amazon Warehouse Deals. The problem is everyone has a different opinion.

Sorry that happen to you dude.The difference between good and exellent selling prices is around 50 cent but the game is in excellent condition because i only played twice but for some reeason i feel someone might try to say it isn't in excellent condition and screw me over somehow.

I think you will be alright. I have not done a ton of business with Glyde but so far I am 6 for 7 on good transactions since the last one I was unhappy with. I think you run the risk of people trying to screw you over regardless of what condition you list at. Most of the time I think people return because they get the game, try it, then have buyers remorse and want to return it. It won't matter what condition you list at if a person is determined to return the game.

Honestly the difference between excellent and good has to do with the trimmings (condition of the manual, box, etc.) and if you have barely touched the thing then it should be excellent unless you used the box to level out an uneven table or something.
At the end of the day someone would have to take a bit of a hit just to screw you over (cost of shipping) so I wouldn't be too paranoid. I mean literally the only thing I can imagine getting really hosed over is what almost happened to me (sell new game with online pass, game gets returned opened with the pass/dlc used) and I never got to test it, but I am sure glyde CS would probably come through there.
 
I've ordered a lot of things from Glyde over the past year or two. The last game was listed as excellent, but did not come with a book. I ended up keeping it because it seemed like too much trouble to return it and then try to buy the game at the same price (or cheaper) in excellent condition again. Oh well. Aside from that, most games are in excellent condition, if listed as such.
 
First time Glyde use, got Tales of Legendia in the mail. Will probably never use glyde again.
The game was bought in excellent condition. Bottom of the disc had a ton of minor scratches and some horizontal scuffing on it. By my estimations this game is an average condition game.

The only option i have is to return it and lose 2.50 of my sale...mind you which is BS because I should not have to gamble everytime hoping the seller is telling the truth. Or I can keep it and be upset, which I did because Im not interested in losing money for nothing. There needs to be an option where the seller can agree to drop the condition of the game and receive a % refunded to you instead with downgrade of condition.

Disappointing Glyde.

If you contact Glyde they will usually eat the cost of the return shipping and give you a coupon code for your troubles. It really sucks that you got a bad seller on your first try :(

I scrolled some pages back and sent an email to [email protected]. I really wish they listed their games more friendly to collectors. Most of us i am sure use Glyde to purchase hard to find games. Mint. near mint, good, average, and poor should be the way discs are sold. Excellent condition items should not be allowed to have scratching or case damage.
