You beat me by one minute. I searched and didn't come up with anything but when it posted your thread was right under mine Anyway, there's also free shipping (up to $4.99) on preowned games - use the code PREOWNS. I'm not sure if you can use both at the same time but it's worth a try.

gross@iastate

Both codes can be used at the same time. Has anybody had any luck buying preowned games from Ebgames?

Absolute Zero

The preowned games I have bought from eb have always had their cases and instructions.

renaldow

Thanks for the codes, they both worked for me together. $50 off 99, and free shipping (up to $4.99) Nice deal!!

Gallant Pig

This is a frustating deal for me. Everytime I've tried to check out, I can't because a game has already sold out.

jerry4fish

oh boy, that was some crazy stuff. The number of games available in PS2 was dropping like crazy. It was 127 games when I started and now I am done, it's only 107 games left.

I got gundam, max payne, and dynstasty warrior for $55 shipped.

Does anybody know, if how much I can get back if i decide to trade them in after I am done with them?

Check Out fast! My 7 games were down to 2 by the time I got my address in. Now I can't remember what I had but they were really good! Ended up with Metal Slug for PS1, Smugglers Run,
Fur Fighters, Frogger, Gadget Racers for PS2and Gta3 strategy guide for $51.24. Would have liked to think on them longer but had to make a quick getaway. (20% off guides with code HB20 stackable with the others and your paying shipping anyways...)

Absolute Zero

Thanks for taking Metal Slug and Smuggler's Run . Lost them between adding games and the check out.

thadius

Thanks squidget, you took the bloodwake right out of my cart!!! [

Still got 5 GBA games for the kids for $45, shipped and taxed.

Thanks for the info ABSOLUTE ZERO!!

Thadius

Absolute Zero

Ok, I give up. I keep adding games to my cart and when i get to check oute one or more are gone. And then when I add more to equal $99 another game or two are gone.

Congrats to those who got some fantastic deals and good luck to others who are trying get it on this out of the blue opportunity!!

squidget

it was only fair
somebody took dynasty warriors from me....
im not namin any names...
[looks around]

jerry4fish

I originally had Tony Hawk 3 for PS2 instead of dynasty warriors, but lost it on the checkout, so I replaced it with dynasty warrior. oh well, we win some, we lose some.

Jerry

Absolute Zero

Gamecube and XBox games are completely wiped out.

Absolute Zero

EBGAMES - gives 10% more off
ROCKET15 - 15% off preowned games
PREOWNS - for free shipping

No luck for me as I just saw this thread, and all the games I'd have wanted (MGS2, GTA3, Devil May Cry) were probably the first to sell out.

mgbfan

Damn. I totally had a great cart, but didn't realize time was of the essence. I lost Timespitters, GT3, Twisted Metal Black, and some others.

I ended up with

Tekken Tag
Dynasty Warriors 2
Smuggler's Run
Unreal Tournament
Dark Summitt

for $53 bucks. Still pretty darn good, but could have been so much better!

Many thanks to those who posted the codes.

mgbfan

Heh - who wants to bet there will be a blitz on the trading board in a week or so when people decide they don't like some of the games they bought? I know I'll be keeping my eyes peeled for titles I want.

Absolute Zero

Here is the remaining inventory of the major systems:

XBox - 0

Gamecube - 0

PS2 - 18

Dreamcast (for fun) - 36

khai

It's funny. Even though you win, you still lose.

I ended up getting getting the games I wanted, but then I noticed that there are 15% coupon codes. WHY OH WHY?

OK, I know, I know, I can still call up customer support and tell them to add. I just felt like complaining.

mgbfan

Will they really add the 15% discount if you call them? I'd almost feel guilty doing it when I got such a great deal to begin with.

I know what you mean, though. If I had waited to see that 15% off thing, I would have saved money, but all the good games would have been gone. Ahh well ... can't have your cake and eat it too, I guess.

khai

Yea, I saw a guy post a confirmation in the Anandtech Hot deals thread.

andyanddebbie

My stragety guide has shipped (with a working UPS tracking number for Mon.), but the games haven't. I hope they're not
holding the games for some reason. I did not get a confirmation E-mail but my credit card has a hold on it for the full amount.
There are 0 Gamecube, 0 X box and 8 PS2 games left. Maybe they were clearing out because the stores are holding a lot of preowns. The one near me is jammed but thier prices are a lot higher than on line although everything I take to the register seems to be about $2 cheaper than it's marked and the guys who work there are total jerks about verifying the prices. I'll be checking my order status throughout the day.
