[quote name='anathema728']Do you not know about amazon flips? Or are you working from paycheck to paycheck? I just don't get why $42.75 is a better deal than $60+20credit.
Spending money at Amazon is inevitable.
Batman AA for 360 was $30 lightning deal, 20 after discover promo, 29 TIV
Forza 3 was 1:1 i think.
Rhythmn heaven was also a flip that made like $2/copy.
Tekken 6 was $40, 30 after discover promo, $32 TIV.[/QUOTE]
Yes, 60 - 20 gc is a better 'deal' if you are definitely going to buy another game. Nice point....I guess. However, it does of course lock you into buying another game in a time frame that is set by amazon. I prefer not feeling like I HAVE to buy a game from them before the $20 credit runs out. I see real money (the $15 dollars I still have in my pocket) as better than the possible $20 dollars amazon would be holding ransom from me until I decided to plop down another $40 for that next $60 game that I kinda really don't want, but will lose $20 if I don't buy it. I'd rather save $15 instantly on a game I will play than get some other game I won't play because I have credit to burn.
And your quip about paycheck to paycheck is kind of assish. Then to follow it up with some talk about flipping games is kind of contradictory to whatever you may have been implying.
Personally, I don't like dealing with credit this or credit that, flip this or flip that. All of that takes my time, which is more valuable to me than a couple $2 dollar credits d/t flipping.
Finally, I don't exactly get what you're trying to accomplish by pointing out that someone should have done a deal that is no longer available. That deal is no longer available, people did not take advantage of it for a variety of reasons, and now they are taking advantage of this deal. Why exactly do you care? Personally, if I were you, I would be glad I got the 60 - 20 deal, and pat yourself on the back, and then flip a few more games, or play the ones you've got.
