Hmmm, I'm sure its illegal to sell used goods as new.

Do you not get the games in the wrapping? I thought you did.

Thing is, Microsoft sent me a copy of PGR3 the other day as compensation. I already have it so thought I'd take it into Game and see if they'd give me a credit note or allow me to use it against the purchase of a new game.

Heres a tip:

When taking your game back..
Ask for vouchers or cashback ..
Then buy another game you want instead..
That way it dosnt show u are exchanging an exchanged title..

I have been doing this for about 1 yr none stop and have pretty much had every xbox / gc title out there..
for the price of 1..

(Although i do like to keep the good ones and start afresh somtimes)

I am sure Game are aware that the system is heavily abused. I guess they rely on people not being able to complete games in 10 days.
However the policy is that if for any reason you don't want it then you can return it within 10 days.
There is no policy about a maximum number of returns, the Game shops in Hemel seem to be perfectly happy to do return after return.

yep game rentals, best place ever, used to work there a good few years back, as a member of staff we used to get to try games out over nite as well.

Was all good fun, think things have changed quite abit since then though.

But yeah i have never had any problems returning console games, pc games are a no no now days.

As said above i return for cash and then buy another game if one takes my fancy, Keep it clean and simple. I never exchange for another exchange
