I know a lot of people will disagree , but I think Delivery Confirmation should be MANDATORY . There are so many time that I wanted to know where my games are , and also it would make sure people would ship it with the 3 days you said you would . If you agree or disagree please comment .

Not quite; more like 8000 pennies.

Seriously, it's close to $8.

I think it should personally be a mandatory for USA to USA shipping only.  Other than that its impossible to do and be worth it. That and if you mail international the custom number works as proof of shipping.

I don't think it should be mandatory plus with knowing where your games are won't help much because they don't have to scan the pay pal ones till they deliver it. And the 3 day this is more of a guidline than a rule.

What's the point in forcing people to get confirmation?  If they choose not to (assuming a US to US trade) they're only taking a large risk for themselves.  If the 80 cents is too much to be assured of your trade, then have fun losing your game and points.  If you don't get the game, you're not out anything, as the goozex guarantee covers you.  However, if you don't get the game, or you just choose to say you didn't get the game, if the sender chose not to get DC, they're out quite a bit.

It's in the sender's best interest to use confirmation, but there's no reason to force them to.  They can choose not to get it, and learn the hard way.

Sigh....DC doesn't mean that you are guaranteed your package or the one you are expecting will get to destination. It can be lost or be delivered at the wrong address and still mention online as confirmed delivery. Next please........

100 point games are barely worth the cost of the envelope and shipping, DC would be a waste. However, for 500+ point games, it shouldn't be mandatory, but is a damn good idea for ones own protection.

It should NOT be mandatory, but the one time my wife did not buy it, the game was lost and I got my one and only negative.

No it shouldn't be. I'm not spending at least $8 to ship every game.
