The Game Crazy Flip-Fest thread

[quote name='daminion']Curious if anyone knows what Oddworld Stranger's Wrath for Xbox trades for.

This can be found at Kmart for $4.99. However I noticed yesterday that they were asking $19.99 for the game used.[/QUOTE]
$11 according to wiki
 
[quote name='squirrelboy']fuck ing homos at Gamecrazy. God those fuck ers suck. I take in some games to flip and he tells me that I don't have to buy anything over the phone. Then I get the fuck there and this dude rings my games up. Every time I ask him about the 50% He beats around the bush, but asks a ton of questions about my doubles and why my games are so clean. The homo then without telling me puts a MVP card on the transaction without me asking him (I was gonna buy one anyway, but without telling fuck ing B***h. I ask him about the reason why I didn't get 50% more and he tells me I have to buy 1 new game after each 2 games. I know it was the same guy I talked to on the phone because he has a southern accent but the store is in cali. SO I walk out of the store, with a profit but not as much as I should have gotten. Then when I got in the car I remembered that I could have bought 7 new games and then just returned them. Danget I'm stupid. But if that retard wouldn't have screwed me over I wouldn't of had to be kicking myself right now. fuck ing southern hick, that fuck er. Now I hate Game Crazy more than CC which is so unbelieveable you have no idea. You have no idea how much I hate CC too, so know I hate GC even more. AHHHHHH thosefuck ers sorry. One last vent. Dang I've never seen sooo many F bombs in one post and to top it all off fuck

P.S. Sorry about the rant fellas.[/quote]

Magazine rack and glitter time!
 
[quote name='squirrelboy']What the fuck is "Magazine Rack and Glitter Time"?[/quote]

Probably a CAG inside joke.

And in regards to your rant, using "homo" as a pejorative is pretty goddamned gay.

I can't tell if your trying to be funny or if you completely missed the irony in that statement.:rofl:

you dont know?
 
Come on you guys..... the poor guy has waited for someone to define magazine rack and glitter time for so long. Teasing him further by not telling him is just plain mean.

squirrelboy, from what I have learned while being a CAGer here, you are basically being accused of being elmo minus the l as well as some sort of drama queen. Hope that helps.

I think there's more to it than that. Look up (now defunct CAG user) DenisDFat for the magazine rack reference... Glitter came afterwards. Basically, Denis would relate some horror story from EB or GS and then conclude by claiming he kicked over the magazine rack on his way out. It became a running joke on CAG. Glitter bombing came in afterwards - not sure who brought that into it.

It isn't necessarily a putdown of Squirrelboy (not that he doesn't deserve it ;)). It is a "suggestion" for how to handle bad EB/GS/GC/whatever employees...

PS - Stanford sucks...
 
Have a lot of people been getting them to take VT3?

I'm thinking of taking advantage again, cause if you get the cheap CC/ BB frontlane games, you're basically getting 50% off whatever you buy... and I want to complete my Wii controller collection and get Mario Party 8 :) for 65$ (need 1 remote, 2 chucks).

Hmm, I wonder if they have any charge kits there... I only have one and could use another I guess.

The TRU $9.98 B2G1 free DS game combo is good as well. I got $10.50 for Freedom Wings, $12.xx for Nanostray, and $15 for Gunpey. With the B2G1 they cost about $6.65 each. These were just the leftover crap games no one wanted at my TRU (still there in piles on Thursday night). Phoenix Wright would work too, but of course that was sold out. There might be a few others (that horrible Dino Crisis game or whatever - but that is so bad I didn't want any chance of getting stuck with it). You could get as little as $4.95 for some of the lower-end DS games, so just beware.

Can't someone here go into GS, try to flip a game and then glitter-bomb the EB clerk and kick over the rck and then put it on YouTube?

Oh, and agreed on the "Stanford sucks" thing, even though I'm on the east coast...

Hey we have more directors cups than anyone in the NCAA but we still suck. Hmph, how does that one work. BTW if you don't know what the directors cup is, you shouldn't be riping on college sports teams.

But does it matter if you win in meaningless sports? When is the last time Stanford got the Axe?

I agree this is getting off topic so I am going to stop here. However I am not going to PM you since I got better things to do.
 
So, anyway, I wonder what Bust-A-Move for DS gets at GC? I'll have to call them in the morning. I was at TRU this evening and they had piles of those. Someone wiped them clean of Gunpeys (and the 15 copies of Lumines for PSP that they had last night - very interesting) between yesterday and today. I did get some Nanostrays though and picked up one Bust-A-Move. I figured with the PSP version being such a good item for GC, maybe the DS one was decent.
 
[quote name='squirrelboy']a good portion of these flips now might be dead because of the price drops.[/QUOTE]

The price drop panic has been a bit of an overreaction. Except for VT3 it doesn't seem like anything too drastic.

Yeah after looking over the price drops it isn't that big of a deal but the kicker is that every single item to flip at my GC is sold out at all 3 of my cc's

[/QUOTE]

The wiki price is from a year ago. What did you get for it today? Is it the wiki price minus the 50% for a base (so, is it like $9 now)?

i got the wiki price after the bonus. weird that it worked out that way.
 
if everyone that got a card automaticly added without asking or told they have to buy one would demand for the number to the main office they would change the way things are done over there.
Alot of you guys just exept it like its fair trade cause u got a good deal..thats crazy.

I don't think anyone that got it added without asking is happy. I just think it is a good deal to have (and I already had it anyway). But I would be pissed if they snuck it on there. However, I wouldn't have a problem with GC requiring it as part of the deal. I mean, they are giving out so much credit with this deal I want them to continue it and/or bring it back, and whatever helps do that I'm up for ;).
 
When you flipped these games... did you leave them sealed or did you take the plastic wrap off?

I'm new to flipping and realized I missed a good opportunity here. Should I wait for another bonus trade or should I just trade in the games I have.

I'd like to trade in enough to get Madden 2008 :)
