I know this has been sugested before and rejected, but I've been thinking abot MMOs recently. I was wondering if it would be possible to make the tadeable, so long as they are brand new. I know it wouldn't be used very much, but i was just thinking about the off chance that some one is given an MMO they already own as a present and might want to trade it here, rather than ask the gift-giver for the receipt.


And ofcourse, limit the seled option to these games and these games only.

I don't really forsee this happening. What you describe would result in one time transactions, which in the grand scheme of things won't really be profitable to implement

Pizza guys are getting worse and worse looking. I guess all the good ones went into porn.

Hmm.. I never though of it like that.

I just thought it might generate a bit more money for goozex. I completely forgot about the cost to implement it.

This suggestion is neither new nor sealed.

Too bad this won't be implemented, I was looking for a reason to use the shrink wrap machine I got off of ebay!

Goozex already has this option for every game

While I can't see myself using such a feature too often, I really couldn't care less whether it is profitable to Goozex as much as if it conveniences me.

While I was originally just going to roll my eyes at the thread, this actually isn't a terrible idea.  Granted, it would only really appeal to flippers and would enable a ton of one time only trades, but a bunch of one timers is better for Goozex than not offering them at all.  The only game I can think of that I'd like to trade but can't is HL2, something I got an extra copy of when I bought the Orange Box on PC.

Granted, it's a low priority, but it would be nice to have even more available if possible.

Well if Goozex doesn't turn a profit than there would be no Goozex at all, so Goozex making a profit is more important than you might think.

Goozex will continue to make huge profits whether they put in the work to code a feature like this or not. You have to remember, they essentially make money for doing nothing at all. The ad revenue alone should pay for any bandwidth incurred, but on top of that they make $1 for every trade going on. They made $4458 for every trade happening right now. Its more of a question of do they have any incentive to implement such a feature.

I'll bet that you bet that he'd bet you'd bet, but only if I've got the odds.
