Hi again!
I'd like to start a new thread regarding suggested game specific point changes. This will be the main thread that we will monitor for large point discrepancies. A couple of points to remember are that we are in the used game space so we may not match with current retail prices and a few key variables in our points pricing come from Muze. I'd also like a simplified template for suggesting point changes that looks like this (it doesn't have to be exact):
Game: GodfatherGoozex Points: 750Platform: Xbox 360
OptionalHalf.com: $17.50Amazon: $25
Any point changes we may do are not immediate due to the setup of the Goozex trading system.
Thanks in advance for all the help!
Awesome, I'm glad there's now an official thread for this. I'll kick off with 2 that have been bothering me since I started Goozex:
Game: Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan AND Burn! Hot Blooded Rhythm Soul! Ouendan 2Goozex Points: 500Platform: Nintendo DS
Used Amazon Prices start at: $40.95Half.com: Osu! Tatakae Ouendan is $40.88, Ouendan 2 isn't in stock.
w00t! Now I might consider taking them off hold. Glad to see that this thread is actually going to be more than wishful thinking, like, for the most part, the last thread was. Still, without txa's awesome idea, this might not have been made. So, huzzah for txa!
Thanks nadsofed -- will look into that today and adjust -- need to check one key variable (date) and when that threshold will come into play for this title.
Quick question - are we supposed to list the current points value, or suggested points value in the "Goozex Points" category?
Current please.
The Darkness (360) 950 points currently.
$26.99 used at EB Games.
Dead Rising (360) currently 800 points.
$26.99 used at EB/GS
Puzzle Quest (DS) currently 450 points
$19.99 new at EB/GS, presumably $17.99 used
Game: Final Fantasy Tactics
Goozex Points: 200Platform: Playstation
OptionalHalf.com: $23.00
Amazon: $39.99
Game: Grandia II
Goozex Points: 100
Platform: PS2
Half.com: $13.99
Amazon: $18.99
I'd love to get both of these games, but I'm not sure anyone would list them at the current point values.
Doh! I listed and shipped off a copy of Final Fantasy Tactics for PS1, but it was the "greatest hits" edition so I doubt it was as valuable as the prices listed above.
Thanks for the input! Regarding Dead Rising and The Darkness -- the high point price seems to be dictated by supply & demand...in fact...Dead Rising is the #1 traded game of all time on Goozex.
Final Fantasy Tactics and Grandia II are mis-matched and I will adjust accordingly.
*******EDIT*******
According to the latest issue of Video Game Collector:
Final Fantasy Tactics (PS1) = $11
Grandia II (PS2) = $16
I will adjust Grandia II for the time being.
Thanks!

Why isn't this game @ 1000pts. Over 50+ request, yet still at 850, I just finished the game and want to trade it, but 850 is way to low.
Game: Bioshock Limited Edition
Goozex Points: 700Platform: Xbox360
OptionalGamestop (no longer available): $69.99
This edition of the game was only available through gamestop for $10 extra. The normal Bioshock goes for 1000 points yet this one still sits at 700.
