I meant if you guys found any more un-released games that have been activated for queue...the new release section caps at 200 so I think there's more games to add...

Oh, then no.

I just got matched with the best Goozex guy ever

Hello, and thanks for your interest in Saints Row 3! Last month, being in the holiday spirit, I began offering a free bonus game to anyone who was matched with me here on Goozex. These were older games of little monetary value and have been on my offers queue forever, but instead of simply letting them continue to collect dust, I figured someone might find some joy in them still. Since it was nice to spread some cheer—and I still have a bunch of these games—I have decided to continue the offer. Bear in mind, in order to save on shipping costs, I will likely not include the cases/boxes for any of these games, but if I happen to still have the manuals or slip sleeves I will include those. So, if you please, choose a game from the following list and I will include it in your package: Genesis: Jungle Strike PC: Age of Empires Armored Fist 3 Command & Conquer (w/ The Covert Operations expansion) Command & Conquer: Red Alert Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun (w/ Firestorm expansion) Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3 (Premier Edition) Dark Messiah of Might and Magic Dark Reign: The Future of War Duke Nukem 3D Dune 2000 Expendable PSX: Driver Driver 2 Need for Speed: High Stakes Syphon Filter Syphon Filter 2 PS2: SOCOM: US Navy SEALs Xbox: Hitman 2: Silent Assassin Max Payne (360 compatible) MechAssault Project Gotham Racing (360 compatible) Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon (360 compatible) Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon: Island Thunder (360 compatible) Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six 3 (360 compatible) Tom Clancy’s Splinter Cell (360 compatible)

I'll probably just skip since I don't want any of them, but damn. What a nice guy.

[DavidDayton]

I think I made the mistake of trading out too many games at once -- currently at about 3500 points and nothing much to request on the Wii/DS/3DS front...

[msdstc]

So when's a realistic time frame for when NBA 2k12 will be available? I'm like 70th in line... I'm trying to make use of this service, but it just seems like it's kind of dead.

Depends on the amount of active requests ahead of you. I've been in the 60s in the queue for a game when it shipped before.

Damn. Such kindness. Though the note is written so well that it almost seems like a scam.lol

[Wario64]

Just a heads up that USPS increased shipping rates today, but apparently it's only at the post office. I checked my typical shipping methods on Paypal online and rates actually went DOWN 11 cents. No wonder USPS is so screwed

I think price went down because eBay made delivery confirmation free. So, price increase minus the 19 cents or whatever dc used to cost.

[Marvie_3]

Holy shit I actually have to make links next week. I wonder if I still remember how. :lol

Damn, havent been on here in a while but total trades going on is hovering at around 2000.

I was going to buy some trade tokens, but I feel like it would be a waste of money at this point.

Goozex has been moving pretty well for me. I've been sending and receiving quite a bit of stuff lately.

Same here. Ive had about 4000 points worth games come in the last couple of weeks.

[ChairmanMeow]

I'm in the process of letting my Goozex account die out, still have some points stuck in the system. I'm going to miss the random gifts and notes from weirdos. Today I got this beauty:



Anyone else ever get a game from the guy that includes DC graphic novels? Good ones too, I got a volume of Sandman with Shadow of Destiny.

[friskykillface]

was gonna ask for a link for Jak collection but i see its there, thanks Marvie


i never got any random gifts heh


you can only already request resident evil, been like that since the 1st of January

[Wario64]

We need to find out what's already activated. I posted a list of games around Jan 1st but I know it's not complete...

[friskykillface]

just saw Final Fantasy X for PS3 is activated , don't know how long for

[Carlisle]

I just had my first bad Goozex experience, and I'm pretty sure I know what to do but I don't wanna get effed so I'm appealing to GAF for guidance.

Basically, my request got paired with a no-response, no-feedback guy. Enough time has passed where I can give feedback and I just want to do it so I get my points back. It says if I cancel the trade I get my points back but the seller has to confirm (don't think he will since he hasn't done anything at all so far). Or I can give negative feedback saying I never received the game, but it doesn't say anywhere that I'll get my points back going that route.

So I guess I'm just asking if giving negative feedback saying I never got the game will get me my points back or am I sol?

Negative feedback = points refunded and back to the front of the queue within 3 days of negative feedback confirmed


Never cancel a trade.

Also don't add yourself back to the queue manually. The system will do it for you automatically

[Carlisle]

Sweet, thanks for the clarification.

The day after I made that post I checked my mailbox one last time before giving up on the dude and sure enough, there was the game. So all was well. I ordered one other game after that to zero out my points and tokens and leave the system. It was pretty sweet for a while but it's been looking kinda dim lately, so I decided to get out at least for the time being.

Can't believe there are still 0 MW3s for offer.

[DavidDayton]

I think I'm a sucker -- about to have 6700 points.

On the plus side, I'm also about to get $1 trade tokens.

(Waiting for the DS, Wii, and 3DS supplies to bulk back up.)

[Scarecrow]

I'm wondering if something bad happened to the guy I shipped Skyward Sword to. The package got to him a few weeks ago, but he never left feedback and wouldn't respond to messages. He's not a scammer, as he's got feedback in the x4 digits. Goozex finally (and I guess automatically) gave me my points for the game without getting any feedback.

[friskykillface]

thats happened before to me, i just assume people are lazy to leave feedback , really :/ when that happens cause i sometimes miss games cause i need points

[Marvie_3]

Woke up this morning and had 9 or 10 request emails. :lol

[Marvie_3]

Decided to ship out 10 of the 11 things I received requests for. I'm 1st in the queue for a bunch of games I want and I need the points. :lol

Vita games will probably be like 3DS games, update in the system on a random day, smh all the 3DS launch games went active on a Saturday

i'm first in line for a lot of things too, grrrrr 4000 instant points would have helped, i can get the following since i'm 1st
MW3- xbox 360
MW3- PS3
Sonic Generations- PS3
Zelda skyward sword
mortal kombat- PS3
Rage lol


they really do pile up

[Marvie_3]

No Vita games yet?

I had no idea Vita was even coming out so soon

Zelda skyward sword

Ugh...such a boring game. Zelda is my favorite series but I put down SS halfway through and haven't played it in almost 3 months.

[Marvie_3]

I really wish ~70 people would trade Metroid Prime: Trilogy for Wii so I could finally get it. :(

[Wario64]

1887 trades going on

uh oh

uh oh

uh oh

[friskykillface]

RIP Goozex



Bleh smh got matched up with a 0/0 trader for call of duty modern warfare 3 :/ looks like a no show

[DavidDayton]

1887 trades going on uh oh uh oh uh oh

Should I not mention that it's currently at 1642, then?

(That's the lowest I've ever seen it at...)

[oatmeal]

I haven't gotten anything in awhile, I'm at the top of the list on many games. I have zero tokens and zero points...

I want to use them and get my games, I'm just...really...lazy.

[Marvie_3]

Back up to almost 1800 now. I've been sending a ton of stuff that I won't play anymore out and getting a bunch of stuff I won't play in return. It's nice. :D

What events led to Goozex losing so much business? A couple of years ago they were averaging 5-6k trades.

Personally, I stopped using the service after two of the 1000 point games I shipped to US traders were "lost in the mail". Both were to people who had left like 10 negatives in their 80 trades. Either USPS was completely unreliable, or people were lying. Sort of coincidental that out of the 40-50 games I shipped, the 3 that never made it to their destination were all 1000 point titles. With tracking service costing $15 when shipping from Canada to the US, it wasn't feasible to pay for tracking.

I think a lot of it is that people just don't want to wait as long as Goozex can take for games. If you're patient, it's great. If not, waiting weeks or months to move up in the queue can be frustrating. People were scamming like crazy last year and I know a few people who quit Goozex because of that alone. Still happens occasionally but not nearly as often as it used to.

I like that Goozex counts the customs slip number as tracking when shipping from the US to Canada. Doesn't cost anything extra and it's still proof that the game shipped. Sucks about your games though. Some people can be real assholes.

[DavidDayton]

Historically, missing game entries on Goozex were blamed on Rovi, and folks were told to post the game data in a thread so that Goozex could bug Rovi to update their database... recently, though, I've noticed that a good many misnamed/incorrect/missing games on Goozex appear to be listed and correct on Rovi's own AllGame.com site (including a complete Saturn listing).

I wonder if there's a chance Goozex has stopped paying for updates to the game database.

[friskykillface]

smh :/ got an excuse of "my disc broke" for a guy shipping call of duty modern warfare 3 to me.


these idiots just saying they are trading to get a jump in line is dumb

[AndyD]

How do they get a jump in line? When its canceled dont you get put back?

[Marvie_3]

Yeah, but while you're tangled up with the phony trade, their real account moves up in the queue.

[AndyD]

Ah. I guess if you are towards the front it makes sense. Crappy practice though. I guess they could limit people under 100 feedback to ship within 1 day rather than allow 3 days. That way new fake accounts can't block you out too long.
