I thought some of y'all might be interested.

www.ebgames.com has a sweet deal for today only:

Buy $99 or more preowned games and get $50 off!
To activate discount, add $99 worth of preowned games to your shopping cart and enter coupon code FREEPRWN. Limit one offer per customer. Offer expires 05/31/02 at 2 p.m. EST.

Here's another deal also:

Free Shipping on preowned games!
To activate your instant free shipping rebate, add at least $19.99 in preowned games to your shopping cart and enter the coupon code PREOWNS (maximum discount $4.99, U.S. addresses only).

Their pre-owned selection ain't top notch, but you could pick up some games that you've been on the fence about (like Wreckless for instance). But Project Gotham is on there, so they ain't all bad. Here's a link to the pre-owned games: Pre-Owned Games (http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/categories/products/deptpage.asp?web_dept=Xbox&web_sub_dept=Preowned&order=1&ordersort=1)

Pre-Owned games are for da birds, but ebgames.com is also running a kick ass deal for consoles. Free shipping and some other junk if you order online for a limited time!:)

Sure its a great find, but I don't like taking the risk of buying pre-owned games. I've had expierences in the past when the game preowned game didn't work properly.

I'm not rich, but I'd honestly rather buy the sealed copy to ensure myself 98% that theres nothing wrong with the game.

So that means that if one of the games I buy is defected, I can send it back? Do I have to pay shipping?

Also, with that $50 off deal, does that mean I can buy up to 3 preowned games for $50?

Hell, I'll take that deal! I just signed up for 3 games for 50 bucks, that's pretty good either way!

I just got the following:
Halo
NFL Fever 2002
Project Gotham Racing
Oddworld: Munch's Odysee
Max Payne
XBox System w/ Free Extension Cable and Free Shipping

$50 off because all the games other than Halo were preowned
$5 off shipping for purchasing a preowned game

total shipping for 2-day air was $6.99

So, my total cost: $316.94

I'm glad I sold my other Xbox to my brother for $275 about 2 months ago. Now, I replaced it and got 5 games for only $40 more. Mwuhahahahaha!

I just went to look at the Preowned section of EBgames.com. There are 3 games, when I first looked at it and posted the original post, there were 27 games. I know that as I was shopping, they ran out of Silent Hill 2. But I think I did alright. Now, give me a week or two, and I'll have my wife wanting to buy Morrowind and Hunter. Woohoo!

hah! USED GAMES ARE THE BEST GAMES! there usually in perfect condition, if not in near perfect condition. and 99% of the time you wouldn't know the difference if they were new or used. BUY USED ONLY. you'll do yourself a HUGE favor! new games are for the birds, they cost twice as much and are no better than a used one. i just bough Hunter the other day at eb for 29.99! hahahaha! damn glad i didn't waste 50.00 bucks on that one, it is pretty damn fun when you get swarmed though. :)

Although, I just went and they have 11 games up there now. I guess they had to call in the reserves :eek: . The deal is still good until 2pm EST today. Here's a link EB Pre-Owned (http://www.ebgames.com/ebx/categories/products/deptpage.asp?web_dept=Xbox&web_sub_dept=Preowned&order=1&ordersort=1)
