I never buy used...that way I know my game has been taken care of. I like things in "mint" condition...I'm anal like that

Used, but not recent used games from Gamestop. There's not much point in spending $45+ on a recent used Wii game from Gamestop when the new one is only $50. For recent games, I'll hit up eBay and snag them for around $30-35. I don't see the point in paying $50 for a game. The only time I buy new is if I have to have the game on release or if the game is a gift.

I will buy more used DS games than used Wii games.

I prefer used, but if I am really looking forward to a game, new.

I prefer new ones for the optical-disk-systems!!I don't care for DS's cartridges cause they can't be damaged enough to make the game corrupted!

I would buy things at ebay but bidding is annoying. Then its kind of luck cuz alot of people will keep bidding until its really close to the original price.

Then you gotta pay shipping too, **** dat i rather wait or just buy it new.

But I do buy used games, but I wait until its like $30 atleast. If its a good online game, I just buy it new because its better to jump into the online gaming quick bcuz it could die out when newer games come out.

used, cheaper, can use my edge card (10 percent off) and a seven day return policy. basically its like renting games for free.

Sometimes $99.95 (Australian Dollars) is a huge amount for a child with $25 pocket money per month and EB Games Aus/NZ have a 1 week return policy for faulty pre-owned games . But on the other hand new games are pretty much guaranteed to work if bought from a shop. Overall I would choose Pre-Owned.

I wouldn't mind buying a used game, but at the moment there aren't any at all! They seem to sell like hot cakes. The Wii is also out of stock absolutely everywhere, so it's crazy!
