Anyone have any experience with these guys? Good ones? Bad ones?

GatorDeb ordered like 5 games for $60, including Gladius. So I'd say they are good.

GatorDeb 11-12-03 09:59 PM

$60 for Gladius, RPG Maker, F-Zero, and for the GBA Pokemon Ruby and Mario Kart Super Circuit. The offers dried up though and I can't find anything else to do. For the offers, put it this way: Do any offer that's ~$1 per 100 points or better. For example something that gives you 500 points and has a $4.95 shipping charge is a good deal.

Yeah but all the cancelling offers and such could be tedious.

GatorDeb 11-12-03 10:46 PM

Hey, it's the tradeoff for $11 games :D It's about 4 offers per game.

nickdawgy 11-12-03 10:59 PM

Bah, I can't think of 4 games at a time I'd want

Did you have any trouble canceling any of the offers? I was thinking about doing some of the instant points, free trial stuff and then canceling 10 minutes later but I was afraid they would make me go through phone calls and put me on hold forever.

vinhj, go to the store forum, and check the 100+ page long thread on these sites.

Definitely check out the FAQ - tells you how to get a yahoo account, webceritifcate, cancel memberships etc. so it's a hassle but 100% safe. I've spent about $80 and gotten:

GC:
GameCube system
Wavebird controller
251 Memory card
controller extention cord
Mario Party 4
Animal Crossing
Sonic Mega Collection

GBA:
Final Fantasy Tactics
Kirby
Super Mario Bros. 2

Very worth it, IMO

This site is a must!
I got:
- Xbox system
- Halo (when it was still $50)
- Star Wars: KOTOR
- Splinter Cell (when it was still $50)

all for about $50 or so!!

Definitely check out the thread in the Store Forum. There's actually 2 of them......

If you start at the beginning, you should find enough info to get you well on your way.
It IS tedious, and spreadsheets are essential, but I found the payoff to be worth it. Many other don't. I couldn't convince any of my friends to give these sites a try :(

Good luck!!
