I traded for Crimson Sea with another member of this forum and decided I don't really dig it a whole bunch - not really my style of game.

So I'm thinking of trading it, but only if I get what I really want. Here's some of the games I'm looking for (XBOX only) :

Prince of Persia
Lord of the Rings : Return of the King
The Suffering
Baldur's Gate 2
Full Spectrum Warrior
Riddick

And I know this sounds "stingy", but if you really want this game and have two older games you want to trade, I would do 2 for 1 too, on these games :

Hulk
Need for Speed Hot Pursuit
Metal Arms
Gladius
Batman Rise of Sin Tzu
Buffy 1
Colin McRae 03
Evil Dead
SWAT

I realize this is a lot to ask (yes, it was only $5 in the CC sale) but this was one of the harder games to find in the CC sale and most folks didn't get it. So yeah, hit me up with other offers too, but chances are I'll just go ahead and keep it if you don't really want it and aren't willing to give something I want for it.

He could judge games based solely on box art.

But wouldn't he have been able to see that online or in a store, instead of trading to get it?

[quote name='anonymouswhoami']Crimson Sea wasn't that difficult to find. To ask for a relatively new $50 title in trade for a USED $5 item takes some nerve.[/quote]

It was if you lived in a city with more than 6 people in it.

And games aren't worth what YOU paid, they're only worth what someone is willing to give for them. If someone really wanted Crimson Sea and beat Prince of Persia 3 times, maybe they'd consider trading. Crimson Sea is not a $5 item because one store sold it for $5.

Crimson Sea - EB : http://ebgames.com/ebx/product/225443.asp - $29.99
Return of the King - EB : http://ebgames.com/ebx/product/235996.asp - $29.99
Prince of Persia - EB : http://ebgames.com/ebx/product/236399.asp - $19.99
The Suffering - EB : http://ebgames.com/ebx/product/234535.asp - $29.99

So yeah, any of these games would've been considered a "fair trade" BEFORE the CC sale, I don't see why it's suddenly changed.

I clearly said in the thread if I don't get exactly what I want, I'll just keep it. Looks like I'm keeping it. No big deal. But thanks for trying to fuck up my Chi with your bullcrap.

What takes real nerve is you giving your unwanted opinion. I clearly said in the thread if I don't get exactly what I want, I'll just keep it. Looks like I'm keeping it. No big deal. But thanks for trying to shaq-fu up my Chi with your bullcrap.[/quote]

Why would they give you a $50 dollar title with great trade value (Riddick) for Crimson Sea when they can go to EBGames.com and get it for less than $20 USED? Also, just peruse the trading forum and there are a lot of Crimson Seas available (I got mine through a 1-for-1 trade for another $5 CC game). While the trades you mention may have been reasonable two months ago, they aren't now given the flood of Crimson Sea(s) available. What I dislike is people using the word "rare" and "difficult to find", when it's not. As for "unwanted opinion", when you ask for an uneven trade like this, you have to expect some negative feedback.

I will keep the game. I have no problem keeping the game. I offered it for the games I really want to play, which includes Riddick. There are many reasons someone might want to trade Riddick for Crimson Sea - maybe they don't have a credit card and can't order off EB online.

You may dislike people using the words "difficult to find", but in terms of the CC sale, it WAS difficult to find. No CC's in my town had it, and I'm sure other people ran into the same problem.

Good for you that you got it in exchange for another $5 CC game. I don't see how that has anything to do with me or this thread. The person you traded with obviously held it with less value than I do.

I don't expect negative feedback because if nobody wants to trade they simply won't offer me a trade. There's no reason for you to come into my thread and start shit with me because you don't personally like the trade being offered. You are a nosy asshole and need to mind your own damn business.

I hope someone gives me Riddick for it now just to spite you.
