[quote name='Strider Turbulence']Ignition Factor $1.99

I don't remember seeing this during the update.

http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/product/118672.asp[/quote]

You know, I've been looking for that game. Finally found it on Monday for $5, so I got it. On Tuesday, I saw it again for $5, but in worse condition so I was happy. Yesterday I saw it for $3 and in good condition so I was sad. Today EB has it for $2 (b/c) so I am more sad. I guess it's only $3.50 I overspent, but still...
 
got my MIIB flood light yesterday, the best gba light, just as good as a backlit screen, but add some weight to the gba, messed up my wario ware twisted accuracy though, but other than that i'm very please, also have a gba worm light and it cant compare, floodlight uses 3 AA and no reflection either, for the $5 get it when it comes in stock if ever does again

I think that's about the point where I'm at with all this -- I haven't spent any real money (other than gas money) on games/dvds/cds/etc. in months. My view is that it's a self-funding hobby.
 
Sweet! I got a copy of Final Fantasy 3 today. I know it's not the rarest of game, but it feels so much more "real" when you play it on the SNES, as opposed to the Anthology version.

Now just gotta get my hands on Lufia 2!

That Sux.... I must have gotten lucky then, there were only 3 copies when I got one!
 
This is an excellent thread, many thanks to all of the deal posters. I have searched the forum and I didn't find an answer right away to this question. How do you know how many copies of a game EB has left? I don't see it. Thanks. :)

Add 999 to your cart and hit update. When it comes back, it will tell you that there aren't that many, and the amount that they do have (up to 100) will be in your cart.
 
I just got my used copy of Phantom Brave in the mail. I was presently surprised to find it was the special edition with soundtrack. I get the impression that the SE/LE/whatever you call it isn't exactly hard to find, but it was a nice bonus since I wasn't expecting it.

That's my strategy for keeping my wife off my back . . . I picked up 2 World of Warcraft CEs at Target for $40 each, after I dump them on Ebay . . . I can point to the profit for months :)

That is great. My wife is great with my game habit, but I really try to sell one whenever I buy one. So that way she does not feel like I am losing money...

My Disney habit though is another story...

You all should remember to save your EDGE and CC numbers in a text window for easy access. I think somebody here posted that already. I keep it in the notes section of my Outlook.
 
[quote name='onikage']All current generation games are guaranteed complete and I doubt many of the rarer old games can be found cheap on those sites(ex. Musha, Pirates Gold!, Herzog Zwei, etc).[/QUOTE]

many older (PS1 and earlier) games aren't going to be complete as people didn't care much for packaging in the earlier days of v-games.. now since the storage of the games is just as important as the overal package its easier to guarentee completeness in PS2 and beyond..

but if you like to just PLAY games then getting them from EB is great because you get great old games for cheapo prices (25% and free shipping is like every 20 dollars you spend there you get like a free used game (i only buy games that are 12.99 or less from them) but yeah.. its pretty cool.
 
Strange ..... after looking at my 2 most recent orders on EBgames.com - it shows that I ordered 2 of everything that I ordered, but the charged amount is for only one of each of the items.... is anyone elses show up like this too? Its probably just a glitch or something, but strange.......

One of my orders is like that as well. I'm assuming its just a misprint, I remember for a fact it saying 1 before I noticed it said 2 today.

You mean you haven't memorized it yet!? jk. I've used mine so much that it's becoming a habit to just key it in. It's like a second credit card...if that's a good thing. I need a new hobby.
 
[quote name='schultzed']Yes, it takes some doing but I keep an eye on $5 (or less) games especially Target but also Best Buy, CC, a few from GS and Blockbuster.

If you get a feel for the exclusion list you can get good at it. Then there were the JamPaks that qualified (even just the extra $5 deal in Feb brought in $80 on .50 JPs) The penny copies of Midway Arcade Treasures were cool.

Rarely, I've flipped games from EB but that feels wrong.

Also, I've traded in a ton of the CC $5 stuff from last year that I was through with.

It becomes a part-time job in the end . . . but I enjoy it.[/QUOTE]

How'd did you manage to pull off a double-post an hour later... lol


I thought I was seeing things when I read ur post twice. heh

That happened to me before too, only got one of each though.
