Bargain Chat
Latest Message: 1 minute ago
- clawster : @John oooh. yikes. yes. got distracted playing GoW-CoO. i'll put one up tonight.
- John : will there be a price round up for GOW3?
- zzyss : Oh, and don't forget 7% Moneyback on Fishpond...
- zzyss : @xcess: somebody on OzBargain received confirmation from the Gaming Managing of Fishpond that they are: «link»
- jake : shod i trade red faction, transformers ROTF and cod 4 for bad company 2 @ jbhifi or can i get a beta deal?
- redburn : anyone know the cheapest place to get Blazblue for PS3?
- GeEkNeRd : Fishpong... hahahaha :)
- xcess : Is Fishpong an authorised reseller for the cashback offer ?
- zzyss : Heads up: Fishpond $49 xbox controller (black) + 20% = $16 MS cashback - «link»
- cody : Less bitching, more bargains people, seriously...
- mish_kebab : came to AU$67 all up, pretty happy with that; although knowing BigW they'll have it for $68 shortly after launch.
- mish_kebab : just caved and bought it from 365games, only a couple of pounds more but the shipping is included and they've had really good sales in the past. at least that's how I'm justifying it to myself :-P Can't wait to get the collection, then this shortly afterwards!!!
- CJ Kefford : no worries
- CJ Kefford : Should say on the game page towards the bottom 'Non-UK Shipping Surcharge £1.00 '
- mish_kebab : mad, thanks CJ
- CJ Kefford : @mish - One pound per DVD sized item
- mish_kebab : what does dvd.co.uk charge for shipping to australia, just for a single game? anyone know? don't really want to give them my CC details just to find out.
- CJ Kefford : 'Bargin chat' not 'have a whinge about JB trade in Chat', try here «link»
- alakazak : i meant more the people who abuse the trade ins, ie trade in 15 games for 5 codmw2s, then take em to eb for credit, as compared to people who actually just want the game to play.
- implsv : just under 50
- ducdj : approx trade in value of AC2?
- gizmomelb : cheapest Divinity 2: Ego Draconis for PC anyone please?
- gizmomelb : I always ask EB to tradematch JB offer, that way the cheapo games I'm trading never add to JB's stock (thus making it to the exclusion list) and I can go back a week later and buy the cheapo games again for another trade :)
- neosin : @alakazak I see your point, but you have 2 choices 1.post trade bait = lead to more exclusions or 2.Don't allow traid bait and everyone benefits? Really is it that hard to find bait urself? Also this site is about cheap game, you can still post info about cheap games without referring to trade bait
- Brandon : it might be time to take this discussion to the forums boys and girls as this isn't bargain chat
- alakazak : or, just throwing it out there, it could be that when a game is chep enough, a lot of people spam jbhifi with it, and then he game is near worthless to them? how many copies of the club do you reckon they have in their system? it's not their fault, its the people who incessantly trade games for credit
- J : @neosin If that is your argument, you might as well say we should shut down ecogamer. The whole point of having this site is to share bargains with gamers. And they will always come and go (as will lists be updated). Are you saying that you've never used ecogamer for bargains? Cos if you have, then you're being hypocritical.
- Fuelee : I dont know if the JB Fwits are monitoring here but they are most likely keeping an eye on their competitors websites such as GAME, EB for when they put games out cheap like with Too Human recently and im sure it wont be long till Lost Odyssey and Ninja Gaigen II are on exclusion list
- Ignacio Diaz : i do see your point, but obviously JB will receive heaps of copies that everyone has traded in. its only natural that they'll add those games to exclusion list because they're not games that'll sell well in the end, you know? an example i can think of is muramasa on the wii. its on the exclusion list, not because its trade bait but because it probably didn't sell well. but this discussion isn't for this bargain chat :)
- neosin : @Ignacio Diaz yeh it does, go to whirlpool and you'll see. If people suggest bait then what happens? Everyone get it and then it goes on the exclusion list, if you keep to yourself then chances are 100 other people won't find out? I know it sounds selfish but If we don't stop soon there will be nothing to trade :(
