[quote name='Gaming-Module']thebob101, applauds for what you tried to do in this thread. But don't feel too bad or that you're being singled out. If you're not familiar with Liongames.com, there's a story you should look into for a glimpse into the dark side of this community.
The owner came to CAG offering brand new games for $45 shipped to CAG's as a loss leader and as soon as he ratchets back the promotion because it's losing him money, people start complaining and flaming him. He intended for people to buy a few regular price games out of appreciation or eventually start ordering games they would purchase new at full price anyway from him instead of the big boy retail outlets, but of course that never happened. After that he comes out with a reward zone-esque card and people further bash and flame him. He finally just stopped talking to CAG's altogether and his website has since closed shop.
Three days later I got a ridiculous lowball on something I was selling and took a few months off from CAG. This is a great place to get deals, but some of the folks here really earn us that bad reputation we have on other trading forums.[/quote]
Thanks bro, appreciate it.
This site has gotten really bad recently in that regards. My offer is still open to old CAGs or folks I have dealt with, but believe you me, I have been taking notes on what is said and by who. Won't deal with many CAGs anymore because it is just not worth the hassle.
