*OFFICIAL* Is this a good deal? Thread

[Phorty Ounce]

I don't know how well this thread will turn out, but it gave me an idea after I saw a considerable amount of "is this a good deal" posts on another sub-forum. Here is how I propose it works:

- State the deal
- State who is giving their part of the deal to the other
- Reason(s) if any, for doubts about the deal

I will start off with a question that I have:


Is $40 CDN shipped for a brand new X360 Wireless Controller a good deal? I am trading with another CAG for it. I am the one who is buying the controller.

No doubts, but I just want confirmation if it is a good deal, in case I may not know about an upcoming sale concerning the controllers.

A reply is much appreciated.

These pop up from time to time in the opened box sections of FS and BB for $35-30.

Hmm...

But if we are speaking in brand new, unopened terms, is $40 a good deal then?

To others: I encourage you to post any deals you want confirmation on. Analyzing is your best friend.

Haven't seen wireless controllers than cheap in... ever, so yeah good deal.

Best you can do from a retail store that I've seen is FS/BB going down to $49.99 occasionally for a short period of time... $40 is pretty good, I'm sure the seller could get more, esp since shipping that bulky package is probably going to cost him ~$10...

[chimp69]

is there any gta san andreas worth anything? rare?

 

[chrisryans]

anything to do with gta is worth pretty much nothing, just think of it that way

Actually, the original version (before the re-rating) might be worth something, as in either AO or mis-rated M form.

Not really. Most stores won't even take it and there's enough copies out there of that version for little to no demand for it.

Yeah, for any version of GTA: SA, you should not have to pay more than around $20 for it.

If you are talking about collector's items, the M ESRB rating is more valuable than the AO ESRB rating.

For me personally, I don't want to have to have the AO ESRB version in my collection...
