OFFER ENDS Jan 6. 2008

If you sign up for an account at www.goozex.com (a really cool game trading website), you get one free 100 point game. That is a free $5 game. There are some pretty decent 100 point games and a pretty large selectoin.

Also, if you refer someone, you get 5 free trade credits. To anyone who signs up, private message the poster above you to ask for a referal so that they can get 5 free trades. If everyone who signs up gets a referal then everyone on this post will get 5 free trades. Please return the favor for other posters!

They say this is a limited time offer. Also, I will refer the first poster but only one poster. This post is NOT spam!!!!!

Again please return the favor by requesting referals from the poster above you and refering people who request referals from you. DO NOT post your email here but private message other people instead!!!

IN ORDER FOR THE REFERER TO GET CREDIT THE REFEREE MUST COMPLETE A TRADE BY JANUARY 6, 2008
 
Goozex is a great site for sure! Very good community as well. It's a good way to dump old games that won't trade-in or ebay very well.

On that note, my sig works as a referral to me. :)
 
[quote name='Rouzhokuu']If it was already posted, too bad, I didn't know about it. Thanks TC. =)[/quote]

same here, i knew about the sayswap website, but not this one, would have been nice to get those 5 free trades
 
just pm someone in the thread who has joined with your email and ask them for a referal.

you can still get the free game w/o the referal, but the referal is nice for people who use goozex regularly.
 
For all those that have experience with goozex.com ... what do you guys think about it? I mean any really bad experiences or have you pretty much been satisfied with both ends of the deal?

The set-up sounds pretty good and I would like to give it a whirl, but I just want some honest positive and negative feedback before I commit.

Thanks in Advance... :)
 
I've been really happy with Goozex so far! I've got three games already for the PS2 I won from the CAGcast and one Wii game (Scarface). I've traded out several Wii games, including Guitar Hero III (game only) for 1000 points ($50), and just today got a request on my Super Paper Mario for 900 points ($45) which is a much higher value for both games than I could ever dream for at a place like Gamestop! So I've got 1850 points ($92.50) to spend on the site still! For those that are interested, I don't have any referrals - just click on my Goozex banner in my signature.

EDIT: And if anyone's wondering, the reason why my PS2 games aren't showing up in my banner as recently received, it's because I don't have my PS2 yet, so I'm holding out to give positive feedback on them until I have it. But don't worry, the two people that sent me the games have a high enough feedback (20, +2 or greater) that they get the points to spend immediately upon agreeing to ship out the game. It's a really great system Goozex has set up here.
 
I want to keep the chain going instead so whoever just joined through another referral, PM me link. First PM gets it. I'll post after I join someone else can use my link, and so on.
 
I just joined.
Whoever wants to join either post here for my PM or PM me directly.
Let's keep this thing going so we can all benefit.
 
I've only received one and sent two thus far, but no complaints as of yet and I really like the set up. Seems to be a little too easy for the seller to get screwed, but the buyer has no worries at all. No system is perfect though, and this is without question the best swaping site I've personally looked at. I really like how dynamic the price shifts are.
 
My experience has been negative so far. I got 100 points and a few free trades when I signed up a couple weeks ago. I listed Bioshock and Prey as available to trade and that I wanted The Simpsons Game and Earth Defense Force 2017.

So far nothing has happened other than some rather useless emails saying that I didn't have enought points for EDF2017 and that I'll have to wait until it's my turn again.
 
What happens to the sender if a game is "lost" or "damaged" in shipment...do they receive any type of compensation? I read that they recipient gets their points back, but nothing in regards to protection for senders.
 
I think that if a seller has a good reputation, and can provide a delivery confirmation number to Goozex if a problem arrises, that Goozex will be quite fair with the seller. Everyone says in the forums that they're great to work with and the resolve issues very quickly. My guess is that if a package "disappears" Goozex will refund the buyers points and trade credit, and let the seller keep their points if they can prove they sent the game.
 
I like how the PC library goes back really far so I can get some really great hard to find games for next to nothing. The CD of Star Wars: Tie Fighter (I used to have the floppies) was only 100 points. X-Com and Fallout are also at great trading prices.
 
Goozex makes it easy to send stuff too. They have an easy print out label and a paper to put inside to remind the buyer of all the trading info. If you are sending a disc without a box, they have a very nice printable envelope that helps protect the disc. The labels also list the return addresss as Goozex, so when sending you are not giving away any info besides your user id.

Its nice to give some games to people who still want to play them. Also it allows you to try some games you don't want to play full price for.

I have sent in 3 PS1 games, that were just sitting around not being played and 1 wii game that bored me. I have gotten Super Mario Sunshine, and will soon be getting Metal Slug Anthology and Ultimate spider-man from this site.

If anyone wants to use my referal link, its in my sig, but its not needed.
 
Yeah I've had good experience there too.
I requested Space Invaders Pocket for PSP - the game picture and everything on the site was English, but when I got it, it was in Korean. Not really a big deal, since it's just an arcade game and it was only like 300 pts, if it was an RPG or something then I would be mad. :)

I emailed Goozex and asked if they were trading imports and they said not yet.. and they ended up refuning my points. I'm afraid to re-list that game on the site again now for fear I may get bad feedback if someone is expecting a US version and gets Korean instead.
 
No, not at all. You go through the site and add all the games you have (and want to trade) to your "My Library". Then as people request those games, you'll get an email asking you when you want to ship it out. In order to get a game, go through the website and add any games you want to get in line for to your "My Requests". Then when your turn comes, a seller will automatically be picked for you and they'll ship out the game within 3 days. It's really simple. Once you've successfully traded two games (I think), you'll start getting your points to spend once you've agreed to ship, not after you've received feedback. So that's really nice.

If someone ships you a game do you have to send them something back and vice-versa?
 
[quote name='SpitFire158']If someone ships you a game do you have to send them something back and vice-versa?[/quote]Nope, you just leave feedback on Goozex (see: Goozex signature banners) regarding the game.

EDIT: If anyone is appreciating my help here in this thread, I'd appreciate a referral out of someone in return. The way referrals work on Goozex is simple, if someone is referred to the site, once they complete their first transaction, the referrer gets 5 trade credits, which otherwise cost $5. I've had to buy trade credits before and I'm running out quickly with all these PS2 games coming in. The way it seems to work out (if you don't get a referral for trade credits) is it costs $1 (1 trade credit) and the required points (100 points = $5, can be purchased or traded for) to purchase a game, and to send a game costs about $2.50 (USPS First Class + delivery confirmation) which earns you points. Right now I have 1900 points ($95) but only 3 trade credits left.

If you don't have any credit do you have to pay by paypal or with what kind of money?
 
Well, upon signing up, you are given 1 free trade credit. Upon completion of your first two (maybe just one, but I think two) trades, you earn an extra trade credit each. At that point, you can referr someone, or you can pay with Paypal or a credit card.
 
Cool, thanks a lot SpitFire! I changed my sig picture to be my referral link. You can find your referral link by clicking on the "New Refer A Friend Today" banner at the top right.
 
You'll get an email asking you to accept or reject the trade. If you accept, you have to agree to ship it in either 1 or 3 days. If you reject, you have the option of when to be put back in the queue.
 
[quote name='SpitFire158']What the $1 they charge you?[/quote]
thats how much trade credits cost, but you get the first free. If you keep selling, you don't pay it.
 
They don't charge you $1. When you request a game, if the seller agrees to the sale, you are charged 1 trade credit and all the points required for the purchase. So say you want Super Paper Mario. You'll need to have at least 1 trade credit and 900 points. Assuming you have 0 trade credits and 0 points, you can go to your "My Account" tab and scroll down to buy both. Trade credits cost $1 each (this is the $1 you're referring to), and points cost $5 for every 100 (these are what you get when you sell games).

So new members get 100 points and 1 trade credit for signing up. That's enough to get you one of tons of games - mostly just PS2, XBOX, and GCN games.
 
One way to increase the liklyhood of finding a match is to include Canada and/or Bremuda in your trading region. This can be done by clicking the "Set Tarding Region" link found on the "My Acount page."
 
[quote name='SpitFire158']Does it cost Credit to ship games out?[/quote]Nope. The only cost associated with selling a game is the actual shipping cost. Which I print my postage from here so that delivery confirmation is just $0.18. I estimate the weight of my bubble mailer and game to be about 7 ounces, which brings the cost to around $2.20 with USPS First Class. I also ship to Canada, which last time I did that, it cost under $2, but there was no delivery confirmation.
 
[quote name='SpitFire158']Thanks once again Iowa. One last question. To ship it do u just go to a Ups store and ask to ship first class?[/quote]
I do it at the post office, but whatever works for you. As long as it gets there, you can ship it any way you want.
 
Like I said before, I print my postage off from that thread I posted. That way I don't have to fuss with any post office (though I'd go to a USPS post office, if I needed to). Then I just drop the game off at a mailbox across the street.
 
[quote name='SpitFire158']So i can just put one stamp on the envelope and put it into a mailbox or do i have to go to UPS?[/quote]NO! One stamp is not enough. You need at least $2 in postage on the envelope, with that they probably won't bother to check its weight to be sure you have enough.
 
[quote name='NFK']Sweet! They have Star Fox Assault for 100 points.[/quote]
Don't forget to read the games "trading info" for the game you want. THis game fore example currently has 0 aviableand there are 20 total requests, so the wait wil be a while.
