Comment (last update: 18-May-2008 9:45am) HERE IS A LIST OF PEOPLE I HAVE FILTERED. IF YOU ARE ON THIS LIST, I WILL NOT DEAL WITH YOU. ANY OFFERS YOU SEND WILL BE DECLINED WITHOUT FURTHER EXPLANATION. THE SUMMER'S EVE ALL-STARS Organization_XIII (Chris Johnson) - added 2008/04/06 for constantly being antagonistic to everyone in chat as well as being a horribly blind fanboy. He's been at it for a long time, and I should have filtered him long ago, but I was hoping his latest suspension might kick some sense into him. I guess I was wrong. phillycool345 (Philip Reding) - added 2008/02/27 for being an offensive numbskull who wants people to believe he's a tough guy from Harlem when he's really just an idiot white boy (probably Irish) from an upscale neighborhood near there. Probably has latent homosexual tendencies too from the way he likes to throw around the word jerk. He also tried to screw over Forgotten_Freshness one time, which in and of itself is reason to avoid him. RLeav20717 (Frank Leavitt) - added 2007/12/14 for gratuitously scalping "new" Wii systems that he took Wii Sports out of to scalp separately (and being a smug little prick about it, emphasis on little prick). He made his scalping post with the sole intent of starting a flame war. Guess what, douchebag? You've been extinguished. Sheesh (Chris Zinda) - added 2008/02/06 for being an arrogant, self-absorbed, self-righteous condescending douchebag who spends half his time saying "why me" and the other half concocting conspiracy theories about an imaginary GameTZ "clique". He's, delusional, paranoid, and smells bad (but really, that last one is the only one that's his fault since he won't wear deodorant). Also, he's more concerned with pushing his extremist political agenda here than trading games. And worst of all, he LOVES to hear himself talk. His wife goes out and makes the money so he can stay home and be a bum. Overall, he's the GameTZ equivalent of ants at a picnic. Annoying as fudge, but completely and utterly powerless and harmless. SirStallion / ShadowChemist / Tonto / whatever name he is going by this week (Vernon Okemau) - added 2008/01/27 for just being all around pervy and useless. Being pervy isn't so bad in and of itself, but when you let it seep into every aspect of your life like Vernon does - including posting gay Phoenix Wright porn in random GameTZ forum threads... well a line has to be drawn somewhere, and Vern finally and permanently crossed it. TMNT (Daniel Reed) - added 2007/12/24 for thinking the fecal fountain of words he spouts is "Real Talk" and getting defensive and attacking anyone who disagrees with his point of view. On the internet. Making "controversial" (i.e. retarded) statements behind the relative anonymity of the internet is the very definition of a Troll. He needs to grow a pair. Please note that I do not bear a personal grudge against any of you. You all present a very real problem in the forums. I could metaphorically treat the symptoms of these problems for as long as I am an active GameTZ member, or simply cure the disease once and be free of the symptoms entirely. I have chosen the simpler and more effective path. OldSchoolGamer (Mason Flinn) - BTR filed June 10, 2007. Mason sent me a Wii that was "damaged in shipping" and was so lazy and unhelpful when I tried to file the insurance claim with the USPS that the time period expired. He freezes whenever things start to get tough - essentially he's a ticking time bomb and I'm sure he will be the recipient of another BTR before too long. Mine was his sixth. BTR taken down June 22, 2007 since he finally paid the repair cost of the Wii. Sum41rcks1 (Tyler Forte) - added 2008/01/03 for practically begging me to sell him my copy of Metroid Prime 2. After reviewing his bio and seeing his cancelled trades, I told him to shove off, but he came back and said he REALLY wanted it and wouldn't cancel on me. Well, he didn't cancel the trade... but he declined the offer I sent him without any explanation. This festering twit isn't worth your or anyone else's time. syntaxcoma (Jason Wabiszewski) - BTR filed March 28, 2008. I loaned him $95, and he was supposed to pay back $104.50 within a month. The month has passed, he's stopped responding to my emails, and apparently he's having trouble getting his story straight, as the one he told me isn't the same as the one he told Pyramid_Party. syntaxcoma had gotten in touch with me and we agreed to have him pay back in installments, so I took the BTR down. After sending one payment dropped out of contact for a while, and so I've had to re-file the BTR. TooShort4 (Jordan Lindsey) - BTR filed April 20, 2008. Loaned him $20, and he was supposed to pay back $23 within a month. It's now 2 months later, and my requests over the last two weeks for any word on repayment have been ignored. He also hasn't logged onto the site for a few days so he may have just decided to take the money and run, as it were. Congratulations - for just $20 you've managed to throw away your ticket to reasonably priced games - nobody's going to trade with you here anymore. Enjoy shopping Gamestop and eBay from now on. Again, I don't bear a personal grudge against any of you either, but until you can regain my trust and reasonably prove that you can be reliably counted on, I will not be dealing with you. (yes, it's long enough now that I need one) 1 - Trading Rules 2 - Problem Resolution 3 - Everything I Ever Needed to Know I Learned from Video Games 4 - My Favorite Traders 5 - Five Absolute Truths About Gaming 6 - Game of the Year 7 - Quotable Quotes 8 - Useful Statistics 9 - Additional Info About my Available List Only have a few rules, so I'll spell them out here. I'll list them all first, then go into detail on each one. 1 - NO PAYPAL. I do, however, accept Wii Points cards. 2 - I strongly prefer complete games. 3 - Please be courteous. 4 - In the US? Rules for Delivery Confirmation and Insurance 5 - Outside the US? I ship worldwide, but I don't falsify customs forms. 6 - Clean up your BTRs. 7 - I don't send first. 8 - Minors and PO Boxers MUST send first 9 - Too many pendings and I might ask you to finish a few 10 - Collection items are NOT for trade. 1 - NO PAYPAL. I do, however, accept Wii Points cards. Any money transactions (other than loans) are to be done with check or money order. DO NOT SEND CASH UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. Anyone who sends cash will automatically receive a "poor" or "unnaceptable" courtesy and honesty rating. If you send a check, I will mark received right away, but I may not deposit the check for a few days (especially for smaller amounts, I may wait until my next paycheck and take them all at once). Please make sure the money is in your account if you send a check - if the check bounces, my bank charges a $10 fee, and I will hold you responsible for reimbursing that - even if I don't deposit it right away - as well as the original amount of the check obviously. If you really have a problem sending a check or money order, I do accept Wii Points cards (or just the codes if you don't want to mail em). Wii points cards are the new PayPal. ^_^ 2 - I strongly prefer complete games. In addition, they should be in very good or better condition. This means no missing manual pages, no writing on discs, no label rips on cartridges, no crushed boxes, etc. unless I specify otherwise. For disc-based games, being complete is pretty much a must - I'm a little more lenient for cartridge games. Please verify your items are in very good or better condition BEFORE pending a trade with me. Finally, I'm really mostly interested in items from my wanted list, but occasionally will take trades for other items - but please check my available list and collection before you offer them... if I have it already, chances are I don't want another one (unless it's a good deal and it's an easily tradeable item). Finally, since I live in the US, all the items on my available and wanted list are for US versions unless otherwise specified. 3 - Please be courteous. If you don't want a trade that I offer, it takes just a few seconds to decline it. Honestly, it doesn't matter to me whether you give a reason why you decline, just as long as you decline if you're not interested so I can offer it to someone else. Also, please keep in mind that I often cannot go to the post office the same day as we pend the trade. When trading with me, unless we have made other arrangements, "immediate" shipping means the item will be sent within one week of pending the trade (or 1 week from receiving your end if you are sending first). My usual shipping days are Saturday because I work during postal hours the rest of the week. Being courteous also means keeping me informed if there are any problems. Can't ship when you said you were going to? Just let me know. 4 - In the US? Rules for Delivery Confirmation and Insurance All trades within the US must have delivery confirmation or some sort of tracking whenever goods are being sent. (If you're just sending a check or money order, then there's no need). Delivery confirmation costs all of 18 cents on first class mail if you print the address label from your computer using USPS' free Shipping Assistant software, and it's completely free with priority mail. I will decline offers from anyone in the US who refuses to get delivery confirmation. It's simply not worth the risk - especially with the way the post office service quality has plummeted since the price hike. What about insurance? I strongly recommend insurance for any trades valued over $50.00, and I require it for trades valued over $100.00. The quality of service from the post office has dropped like a rock since the price hike, and we get to foot the bill if something goes wrong. 5 - Outside the US? I ship worldwide, I don't falsify customs forms. Please note ahead of time that I will not falsify customs forms. It's your obligation as a citizen of your country to pay any taxes due from importing goods. Just because you are not paying money for it does not make it a gift - you are bartering in goods. Also, just because no actual money exchanges between us does not mean the value of expensive goods sent drops down to $10 or $15. The value I put will generally be what you pay for it if you're buying, or for trades I will use the going eBay rate or approximately 80% of the original MSRP (whichever is less) International shipping rates have skyrocketed, so please don't be offended if I decline a trade offer that would normally be a fair deal - once the shipping is factored in, the cost can often be more than it's worth. Generally speaking, I don't like to do large value trades internationally. I may make exceptions, but don't be offended if I decline - I just may not want to take the risk. 6 - Clean up your BTRs. I will not pend a trade with anyone who has an active BTR, regardless of how great a deal you are offering or whether you are sending first. If you have a BTR, it means that you have other business you should take care of first before you pend any new trades. I personally feel that people with active BTRs should not even be allowed to pend any new trades until it gets cleaned up. If you receive a BTR while we have a trade pended, I will not ship anything to you until it is cleaned up. If I have already sent your end of the deal, I will expect a valid tracking number for my end within 24 hours or a DAILY status update in the trade report until the tracking number is given. Remember, a BTR is not a punishment or a death sentence - it is a supposed to be a wake up call to get you to follow through with a trade you have been neglecting. 7 - I don't send first. I am not interested in playing the game of "whoever has less trades sends first." The GameTZ Oath, which we all agreed to (including you) when we signed up here, says, "You may not ask other established traders here to send first." Some people interpret that as not asking someone with more trades to send first (and conversely, to require people with fewer trades to send first), but I believe the rule is intended exactly as it's written. If someone is an "established trader" here at GameTZ, regardless of whether they have more or fewer trades than you, they should not have to send first. Obviously there's a point when someone becomes established, and that point may be different depending on whom you ask. I feel a Therefore, if you have a I have a Sending money is the same as sending an item - just because someone is sending money does not mean they should send first. 8 - Minors and PO Boxers MUST send first If you are a minor, I require you to send first in any trade regardless of your ranking. The reason for this is there is no legal recourse for me to go after a minor if he or she decides not to send their end of the deal. Likewise, if your shipping address is a PO Box, I may ask that you ship first, as it's a lot more difficult to seek recourse against someone when you don't have a physical address for them. 9 - Too many pendings and I might ask you to finish a few There have been several users with dozens, or even hundreds of completed trades that, for one reason or another, decide one day they want to start ripping people off. So, if you have 4 or more pending trades, I may ask you to finish a few of them before we trade (or if you are willing to send first, that will work also). It really depends on the value of our potential trade, the value of your other pending trades, whether we've traded in the past, how much we've talked in chat, etc. Each potential trade will be considered individually, so you may or may not be asked to finish some trades or send first depending on the circumstances. Don't take offense if you're a well-established trader here - I'm not accusing anyone of being a thief, but I also want to avoid giving people the opportunity. 10 - Collection items are NOT for trade. Pretty simple. If it's in my collection, I don't want to trade it. Do not ask about collection items or I will simply decline the trade offer without further explanation. If I want something bad enough to give up a collection item, I will offer it - otherwise don't ask. Even if you take every precaution, something can still go wrong. In the interest of fairness, here is how we will work out problems if you trade with me. First off, YOU MUST HOLD ON TO ANYTHING YOU RECEIVE FROM ME UNTIL THE TRADE IS COMPLETED. I will do the same. This also means that you should not click "I have received" until you have physically inspected anything that has been sent to you. When you mark received, that is your way of marking that you have received, inspected, tested, and are satisfied with the stuff you got. If a package is lost in the mail and there is a valid tracking number (meaning the courier has it on record that they have physically received the package), we will split any loss 50/50. If it happens, we will discuss whether this should be solved by one person sending the other a check for the difference, sending some items back, etc. In the event that we cannot come to an agreement on how to handle the situation, we will send an email to the moderators and we both agree to abide by their decision. If no tracking was purchased or the tracking number is not valid (meaning the courier has no record of ever receiving that package), then the sender is 100% responsible for the loss. (NOTE: For international packages, the cost of tracking is astronomical, so we will split the cost of a lost package 50/50 on those regardless of whether tracking was purchased.) If the package arrives and there are lost or damaged items due to poor packaging, it is the sender's responsibility to replace the missing or damaged items - either by sending replacements (either an identical item or an agreed upon substitute), or a dollar amount agreed upon. If such arrangements cannot be made, then we will send each other's items back and cancel the trade. What constitutes poor packaging versus good packaging? Well, if you just stuff everything into a thin manilla envelope and mail it off, that's a sure fire recipe for disaster. For most games with hard cases (plastic Genesis cases, DS cases, DVD-style or jewel cases, etc.) a bubble mailer is usually sufficient packaging. For games with cardboard boxes (such as Game Boy Advance, Super Nintendo, and later Genesis games), bubble envelopes are considered poor packaging, as they offer little protection against crushing. If you unfold and flatten the cardboard boxes before you send, that's a little better, but sturdy boxes are strongly preferred. If you are using boxes, please make sure that the box is sealed with packing tape. Interlocking the four flaps on the opening of a box is not sufficient protection. When sending games in boxes, please make sure to include sufficient packing material to cushion the items during their voyage. Newspaper is a plentiful and inexpensive source of packing material. You can crumple it to make a cushion liner at the bottom of the box, wrap the items in sheets of if, and add another crumple cushion on top before you seal the box. Plastic grocery bags also work well as packing material. Re-using boxes that someone else has sent you is fine, so long as the boxes are still sturdy. Please do not re-use bubble mailers (except maybe as supplemental packing material), as they are not as protective the second time around. If there are lost or damaged items that are not due to poor packaging, but due to rifling or theft, then we will split the loss 50/50 the same way as outlined above. This section is dedicated to those little nuggets of knowledge that you get when you intersect the fantasy world of video games with the real world. This section is also a work in progress and more items will be added as I get around to them. 1 - If you're ever hurt, start kicking over trash cans looking for meat. Trash can meat is far less expensive than going to the hospital to be treated for injuries, and it always works. 2 - You should go to church regularly. It's nice to know when you're going to go up a level and instantly get stronger, smarter, faster and healthier. 3 - It's OK to walk into strangers' houses and search their drawers and cabinets for money and other useful stuff. a.k.a. "The List of Excellence." These people are the 10 best traders I have had the pleasure to deal with here on GameTZ. (whether you like them or not) I - Games are meant to be played. If you buy games just for "collection purposes," you're a tool. If you're not going to play a game, trade it to someone who will. Buying crappy games just because they are "rare" just encourages the development of more crappy games. II - Your games are NOT rare. I don't care how much a game goes for on ebay. If you think Final Fantasy 7 or Panzer Dragoon Saga are rare, you're a tool. The very fact that you can make a judgement of a game's value by looking at dozens of past ebay auctions indicates that the game is readily available - and that greedy douchebags want to charge too much, and impatient simpletons are willing to pay too much. III - Removing the shrinkwrap on a game is not akin to deflowering a virgin. Get over your sense of entitlement and your need to be "first." If you pay a premium price for a 0.16 mm thick piece of trash, you are a tool. Buying sealed games on ebay for twice as much as a used one in mint condition is stupid. IV - Scalping is for douchebags. If you take advantage of people and demand an exorbitant price for games you picked up on the cheap, you're a douchebag, plain and simple. Similarly, if you cave in to such douchebag sellers' demands, you're a tool. Rich fanboys make the internet suck. There are lots of games out there to choose from - if you can't find one you're after for a reasonable price, wait until you can or get a different game. V - Sega is the greatest video game company that has ever existed. Over the past 40 + years, they have innovated more and brought more to the gaming industry than any other company. There is no room for argument or disagreement. If you try to argue or disagree, you are a tool. Here is a list of the absolute BEST video games released in the US during any given year starting with 1979. That's the year I was born, so games released before that don't matter. 2008 GAME OF THE YEAR CONTENDERS: Professor Layton and the Curious Village (Nintendo DS) Rez HD (Xbox 360) Sonic Riders: Zero Gravity (Wii) Mario Kart Wii (Wii) Sega Superstars Tennis (Wii) turd of the year contenders: 2007 GAME OF THE YEAR: Super Mario Galaxy (Nintendo Wii) Runner up: Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Trials and Tribulations (Nintendo DS) turd of the year: Carnival Games (Nintendo Wii) 2006 GAME OF THE YEAR: CLUBHOUSE GAMES (Nintendo DS) Runner up: Wii Sports (Nintendo Wii) turd of the year: Bomberman Act Zero (Xbox 360) 2005 GAME OF THE YEAR: ANIMAL CROSSING: WILD WORLD (Nintendo DS) Runner up: Donkey Kong Jungle Beat (Gamecube) turd of the year: Shadow the Hedgehog (Playstation 2) 2004 GAME OF THE YEAR: POCKET KINGDOM (Nokia N*Gage) Runner up: Blood Will Tell: Tezuka Osamu's Dororo (Playstation 2) turd of the year: Ping Pals (Nintendo DS) 2003 GAME OF THE YEAR: PANZER DRAGOON ORTA (Xbox) Runner up: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time (Xbox) turd of the year: Big Rigs: Over the Road (PC) 2002 GAME OF THE YEAR: SHINOBI (Playstation 2) Runner up: Metroid Fusion (Game Boy Advance) turd of the year: Smashing Drive (Gamecube) 2001 GAME OF THE YEAR: PHANTASY STAR ONLINE VER. 2 (Dreamcast) Runner up: Phantasy Star Online (Dreamcast) turd of the year: Grand Theft Auto III (Playstation 2) 2000 GAME OF THE YEAR: JET GRIND RADIO (Dreamcast) Runner up: Skies of Arcadia (Dreamcast) turd of the year: The Sims (PC) 1999 GAME OF THE YEAR: SOUL CALIBUR (Dreamcast) Runner up: Sonic Adventure (Dreamcast) turd of the year: South Park: Chef's Luv Shack (Playstation) 1998 GAME OF THE YEAR: BRAVE FENCER MUSASHI (Playstation) Runner up: Grim Fandango (PC) turd of the year: Deathtrap Dungeon (Playstation) 1997 GAME OF THE YEAR: VIRTUA FIGHTER 3 (Arcade) Runner up: Medieval Madness (Pinball) turd of the year: Criticom (Playstation) 1996 GAME OF THE YEAR: NIGHTS INTO DREAMS...

Jun 12, 2007 OldSchoolGamer: i usually eat lots of hot dogs since they are like $10 for a bunch Jun 12, 2007 OldSchoolGamer: i know now what caused me to have the ebay problem OldSchoolGamer: I sold too much at once OldSchoolGamer: overloaded myself benstylus: no, the problem was that you spent all the money before you shipped anything Dec 30, 2007 sailorneorune: Objection to you not taking your fish like a man! Jan 06, 2008 Richie: I used to teach handicapped people karate Jan 29, 2008 alexxb: I hope you grow some intelligents alexxb: I don't want to insult you because I am above that and your pretty pathetic imo Mar 1, 2008 OldSchoolGamer: i dissapoint alot of people May 8, 2008 benstylus: the only huevos in the Zinda family are quite firmly attached to Mrs. Zinda (though she's probably a hyphenated-Zinda, or possibly even kept her own name). Sheesh: Indeed, Shaun. She did keep her own name! benstylus: May 8, 2008 Sheesh: I don't use deodorant I'll add more as I hear/read more. Number of times I've been Goatse'd: 1 Number of times I've been Rick Rolled: 3 Number of times I've clicked on links like this: 7 All my games are complete with original box/case and manual unless specified otherwise. Additionally, items marked with *EI* mean that when I received the item, it was new (i.e. still in shrinkwrap). It is opened now, but Everything is Included (such as advertisements, warning booklets, etc.) Everything may be included for other games, but since I did not get them new, I don't know for sure if they originally had anything beyond what is listed. Secondly all my games are US region games unless I specify otherwise. I will put an indicator in the comments field for these games. I have started to put "Values" in my games, as well as a date in the comment section of when I added that value. Additionally, just because I have prices listed on my want list doesn't always mean I'm looking to buy - i'm more interested in trading than buying, but if I have money i will consider it. I'm always willing to sell stuff rather than trade if you don't happen to have anything I want, though. If something has gone significantly up in value since I priced it, I may not be willing to trade or sell it at that value (too many people here try and get stuff to flip on ebay). Likewise, if something has dropped significantly in value since I priced it, feel free to make an offer with a more reasonable price - those values are just sort of guidelines, not hard and fast rules. Also, NONE of my games are Player's Choice, Greatest Hits, Platinum Hits, All-Stars, or Not For Resale. unless noted. I will put an indicator in the comments section of those games. Here is a list of indicators. *AS* - Game is an "All-Stars" re-release (for Sega Dreamcast games). The content of the game is identical to the original release. *CA* - Game is the Canadian version. This WILL work on US systems and is in English, but in addition it likely also has French text on the case, in the manual and in the game. *GH* - Game is a "Greatest Hits" re-release (for Playstation 1 or 2 games). In most cases, the content of the game is identical to the original release, but the case looks different. *JP* - Game is a Japanese import. Please verify your system can play Japanese imports before you send an offer. All my Japanese import games include the obi / spine card unless specifically noted. *NFR* - Game is marked "Not for Resale" - it was either a pack-in or a promotional item, and not the retail release. The content of the game is identical to the retail release. *PAL* - Game is a European import. Please verify your system can play European imports and that your TV is capable of displaying them before you send an offer. *PC* - Game is a "Player's Choice" re-release (for Game Boy Advance and Gamecube games). In most cases, the content of the game is identical to the original release, but the box/case looks different. *PH* - Game is a "Platinum Hits" re-release (for Xbox or Xbox 360 games). In most cases, the content of the game is identical to the original release, but the case looks different. Please note I do not differentiate between "Platinum Hits" or "Platinum Family Hits" or other variations of them in my listing. If you are looking for a particular one, please ask and I will be happy to let you know which one I have. | ||
