Current Amazon price: $40 and free shipping (~800 points)

Current Goozex Trade Price: 850 points. 

Only +50 points per trade, but the game is in HIGH demand right now. If you're looking for an easy flip that should last a while, here you go.

 Are you joking? That's a horrible flip.

Also interesting is how you are requesting it and not doing the flip yourself. Stop spamming the forums to get people to offer the game so you can get it.

Lol, I don't really need the points at the moment. I'm actually more interested in the Collector's edition, which isn't a profitable flip yet. I only just found this deal, so I hadn't had a chance to decide whether I wanted to trade it on Goozex or just buy it directly from Amazon. 

What constitutes a "horrible" flip is open to interpretation. As is what constitutes an unnecessarily snarky reply, I suppose. 

In either case, I made only one post on the subject, and only my second post ever, so I can hardly see how this constitutes "spamming the forums," but thanks for the bump.

Let's see, you posted a "flip" of 50 points for a game in your requests. You also 5 starred your own thread. A flip is open to interpretation, but only a fool would actually believe a 50 point gain would be a flip.  Many will only flip if it is $10 or more, and the majority only go for $20 or more. So this is obvious spam as you are trying to get it movign ni the system to get matched up. Spam can only be 1 post to be considered as such.

My original post very clearly notes that the benefit is minimal. Those who won't flip a game for less than $10. I've made easy flips for considerably less, when I needed a few extra points here or there. 

You're entitled to your opinion, certainly. At the very least, others who want the game now may decide to just buy it via Amazon for $10 off the retail price. For them, my post wasn't "spam," but useful info on where they could get a decent deal. 

But again, thanks for the bump.

You're just trying to give reason for hiding the fact you are trying to get people to offer the game, because you are probably close in line. No one is buying your "help". If you helped anyone, it was completely by accident as it is so obvious you only meant to help yourself.

Because if this was a good flip, you'd buy one for yourself and then one to flip, instead of continuing to request it

Even if it's not a flip, that's still a decent deal with the free shipping.  Why are you so touchy lately Nitro?

Not even remotely close in line, but thanks again for the free bump. 

For someone who's so irate at my "useless" spam post, you sure are working hard to keep it at the top of the board. I'm starting to wonder if you have a crush or something.

It may be a deal, but he did not post it as such, but instead called it a flip. I'm surprised more of the ridiculous topics don't flood the forums.

At least it makes more sense. Doesn't change the fact you're still a bamma.

Wow that is a terrible flip.  You would have to be insane to make a flip like that.  Until you are getting 1000pts/$30 you are not flipping right.

I guess some of you deal in volumes much higher than I do. I've flipped games for just a few hundred points, or around $15, just because I saw the opportunity and needed a few points for a more popular game. I don't do this for a side job, I just use Goozex to keep my gaming hobby affordable. 

(And cheeznrice -- so glad this nonsense is amusing you too. )
