Oh my is right! Did you know that you can actually buy used video games, video game accessories, and consoles online? It's true! The only thing you will have to accept is that these are "used". By used this could mean one of a dozen things. Most likely though, the game or accessory was used by someone else that simply didn't like it or didn't want it anymore. I think we all know about the annoying rule about how if you open a game, you can't get your money back - all the big chain stores do this.
It's really unfair, but at the same time these are some of the games you could be buying online! Check out Thumbmonkey.com - they have all levels of "used" each of which should be labeled accordingly, such as; fair, good, excellent, INCREDIBLE! Fair probably means it comes without a case or a wire of some sort or maybe a booklet. Good means that it probably has all the cases and booklets, but maybe the graphic part of the disk, or the accessory has a few bangs and scratches on it.
Excellent means its pretty much like a brand new game or accessory, it might have one defect, but that's about it. Used video games that are labeled as incredible, are perfect. No scratches. No dents. Comes with all the pamphlets, the manuals, the cases, and anything else it should include. These are the ones where the owner simply didn't like or didn't want the item! Bad for them, good for us! I've bought quite a few used video games and video game accessories before.
It's just fun because while you go to a big chain store with $50 you might only be able to get ONE game. Whereas if you go to a used video games and video game accessories website online, you can take that $50 and spend it on three or four games - sometimes more! I've spent $50 before during Christmas for my little cousins, and I've gotten up to 10 games for $50. That is impressive my friends!
So visit Thumbmonkey already!
