i finally found a used copy of lumines 1 for $14.99 at gamecrazy then i got it home and when i took it out of the case the UMD shell ripped in half and i realized they had torn apart a UMD movie ( had the UMD movie symble in the bottem corner) and placed the disc from a pervious broken copy in it and glued it. i would fix it but the disk actually has glue on it too and from the looks of it its super glue :S good thing they have a 90 day "if it stops working we will replace it or refund your purchase price" thing im so getting my money back. its a sad day when you find the thing you have been dying to get your hands on and then it breaks before you get to play it :(

sorry had to vent

Dang, that sucks big time!

I know how you feel, once i bought GTA:LCS after 6 months of wating and the same thing happened.

What i learned was that.....NEVER BUY GAMES FROM ARGOS!!!

i tried to play it and it spun and and scrathced it in the case :S i hope they take it.if they say no, im getting ahold of the district manager and getting some free goodies lol. this has made me lose some faith in the UMD.

is the second lumines worth it i can get it for $19 but i dont like alot of the music the back sais is on it. does it still have alot of the first lumines kind of stuff on it?

That sucks, and thats why I don't usually buy used things from huge game stores. I know a guy who sold a disc that was broken in half to a EB Games. He even had the receipt to prove it.

haha i bought a used copy of Street Fighter Alpha 3 from Gamestop and the UMD case was ALL SCRATCHED and the stupid lady there was all like "The case is scratched but since the disk itself isn't it SHOULD work fine". and it cost me $19.00 for a scratched up UMD case. but the game works but now i find that the case is falling apart:evil:

Stop buying your games at gamestop.com, you should use play.com!

for a start its free delivery ( if you live in the UK ) and everything is ether the lowest of the low prices or next pritty dang close.

example;i got dragons quest 8 for ps2 there, brand new, £9.99! Everyware else it was like £15 or £20 not including delivery rates.

Remember the name, PLAY.COM!

wow!

at times i think the people behind counters are zombies. i sold alot my games to a game store they look at the title and say a price.

never check the disk or book lol. i have the limited edition monster inc game which iant selling no more sure its old but he offered 4.99 for it :S.

i only buy games that havent been second hand now but jeez there hard to find.

i had to get killzone (ps2) second hand as i couldent find it.

i feel sorry for you any way. lemines is a great and funny games. now thanks to that scammer u got nothing.

hope you get your money back

Does anyone know why Valkyrie Profile is so hard to find now? I haven't seen it new anywhere in a while, now that I think about it.

I know Square and Enix are notorious for only printing something for months, and then discontinuing it, so did it go out of print already?
