Anyone use Goozex?

[Neebus]

I just started using it and it's cool so far. So I was wondering if anyone here used it to get an idea of what its like in the long run.


If you don't know what Goozex is allow me to explain:

Goozex is basically Ebay but only for games and instead of cash you get points which you can use to buy other games on the site. The best part is games have a fixed price so you never feel cheated like you would trading at Ebgames. For example, I can trade Stranglehold CE for a newer game like Halo 3 or Lost Odyssey and still have points left over.

When you sign up you get a free trade. All you have to do is pay shipping and send out the game. After the person you're trading with confirms they received the game you'll receive your points, and because this is your first trade you'll receive a bonus 100 points plus another free trade.

Plus, if you get someone to sign up under you, after their first trade you get another free trade plus bonus points. They also get a free trade and bonus points so everyone wins(which is awesome).

Now, I bet you're wondering what you could do with 100 points. Doesn't seem like much right? Well, for 100 points you can get a copy of Battlefield 2 for the PC, or if you're a wipeout fan you can get Wipeout Fusion for 100 points.


Heres the link to the main site. They cover all the current and last gen systems(DC/PSP/DS included) as well as PC, MAC, PS1 and GBA.

Here's my Referral link. If you sign up under me you can score an extra 100 points plus a free trade.

What does it mean, a free trade? You have to pay in addition to using the points for trades?

[Salzour]

I think they mean you don't need to use the points, free trade.

[MrWafflez]

I thought that at first, but I highly doubt they just let you pick any game of your choice to have for free.

I'm also a little skeptical of the system, I'll wait for some more opinions.

Skeptical as in; How do they know when the other customer receives it, so that I get my points? What if the other person says they didn't get it to keep their points. Or do they have to give me the points before I ship it? etc.


Edit: I was right.

CREDITS & POINTS

Q. Trade Credits – What are they?

A. They are credits needed to receive a game. Only one trade credit per game received. Ex. You want Halo 3, you will need 1,000 points and 1 trade credit

Q. How do I get trade credits?



A. One of two ways. 1) buy them through “My Account” 2) Refer your friends – those that become active positive traders earn you free trade credits!

All well places like Gamestop and Gamefly are still better because you don't have to pay shipping.
