Borderlands 2 Ultimate Loot Chest Limited Edition & Deluxe Vault Hunter's Collector's Edition announced

[comaamen86]

personally i will aways try to do a fair deal in trade and sales, i would not sell on for profit, i f i have anything to sell at all.
But if someone sells bl2le for 600 they sell it for 600, someone was happy to pay it, is it a rip? for my personal standards yes, but i can not tell people how to sell, buy etc, something is only worth what someone is willing to pay. I do not see a diffrence between a press kit and a sold out ce, if potential buyer wants pay x amount its up to them.

The only thing i would encourage is patience as you might get something cheaper after release if sold out on pre-order, but that could go both ways.

I was lucky enough to be able to pre-order. I didn't realise that GAME had put them up for pre-order until the next day and by then, it was too late. So I hounded them on Twitter and they told me that they'd put the second batch up the next day and they did! I waited until like 2am in the morning, just kept refrshing the page till it popped up. Then Boom! Got my Loot Chest edition! Well, my pre-order.

I will never forget that day. The joy of pre-ordering videogames.

I think its pretty scummy to see people order 2-3 editions with the intent to sell the surplus, thus making there personal copy FREE....why do you deserve a FREE copy and along the way force people who missed out to pay double or more?.

There are quite a few 2faced members here aswell, i've seen people condemn others for multiple ordering of an edition only to see themselves selling spares of a sold-out game for profit.

I don't like people who multi-order, in 99.9% of cases its not for personal collecting.

I managed to get this edition with the help of a tip-off from a member here, so i thank them for that.

This is why i prefer to trade spares, i feel like its an even swap if i dont get money so i dont feel like im ripping ppl off then

It's the buyers fault for not having any money or pre-ordering on time. This is exactly what I do for this benefit. I myself call it an investment. Doing things like this helps me pay bills without coming out of pocket. It's a tough world out there and I don't see anything wrong with this. When I found out hyperdimension neptunia mk2 was removed from pre order, i was pissed. so calling them directly,they had allowed me to buy the extra copies that didn't go through for other customers. thus, i purchase the last 8-12 copies(i dont remember), and sold all but 2 for almost 2x retail. But of course, if I ever made a group buy, then that is another story. But nonetheless, people are still buying the games at outrageous prices and thats what keeps the prices so high, lol..

To be self concious and to not want to sell at the going rate could be classed as an honorable thing. However, you are in a minority of people. Consider this - If a person is happy to pay an advertised amount of money for an item, are they really being ripped off? No of course not, nobody wants to be ripped off. Its that they have placed a value on said item that they are happy to pay, so they do.

That's still a ripoff, you don't have any other choice but to pay the price X person asks. Ignorance is bliss. IMO

No choice? eh. Thats not correct, is it.

For very limited CEs the online companies should operate a one per person policy. Why would anybody want to order multiples other than to make a profit or get one for a friend/relative . . .well let them order their own.

The CE would still sell out so there's no loss to the publisher or retailer . . .only the greedy cunts who wanna screw the genuine collector.

I still firmly believe that the scalpers caused Konami to change their goalposts on the MGS HD limited steelbook. They were selling it for £80 or whatever and the greed brigade online were making three times that on ebay.

Fair deals for all, i say . . .
