I haven't had any issues with scratched discs. I hear they have a pretty solid policy with those, in that they throw out damaged discs/cartridges and replace them with new ones. Maybe not with older games, but they definitely will for new games.D Bones said:Has anyone had the problem of the games being scratched? I'm just curious, cause I was thinking about getting it someday.
I'd put my money on the mail person, there was a big story about a mail guy doing that sort of thing not too long ago. The big ***** in Gamefly's armor is that their distribution tends to suck depending on where you live. I've had them for maybe three years now and the wait time has gotten better, but I have noticed that you have to make sure to put the games you want in your queue early to have the best chance of getting them in a reasonable amount of time. You also have to make sure to free up your slots before the new item becomes available so that you have a better chance of getting first dibs on whatever new release is coming up.LordNue said:No, it took almost a month for a game to reach me here in Hawaii. Then when I'd send games back they'd tell me I stole them and canceled my account after less then three games. So either they're lieing cunts, or the mail person stole them because I sure as hell didn't want their shitty scratched up copies.
Food?squid5580 said:I use a similar service with BlockBuster. 2 games unlimited for 40 bucks a month. No shipping and all that jazz. Just go to the store with the old game and leave with another. Best investment I made in my gaming life. I can afford things like food now
I've had a package "disappear" on me before. I really do wish Amazon wasn't in the habit of marking their shipping boxes with Amazon on them. I feel like they make the items they ship even bigger targets that way.LordNue said:I wouldn't because despite how neglectful they can be, I've never had anything stolen before and I've ordered some pretty tempting things such as popular games and whatnot from other online sources that very blatantly said what game was within.shadow skill said:I'd put my money on the mail person, there was a big story about a mail guy doing that sort of thing not too long ago.

Despite all the inconvenience and relative expense (They know they can get away with robbing you blind on the membership pricing because they are the biggest, and most well stocked game in town.)I take advantage of the discounts I get on games to save some money on a rental I like enough to own.
