Hi and a couple of questions...

Hello everyone,

As most here I'm sure, I got tired of being underpaid for used games at EB/GS (actually, I only did this once years ago) and have been using EBAY, but with fees all over, it's almost not worth it, unless you have a super hot game, so I started looking around at trading sites and decided I liked the point system, instead of a pure matching 1 for 1 site where there is no guarantee.

ANYWAY, I joined a week ago, and have already shipped off 3 games and have some points to burn...NOW, the questions...

If you are on a waiting list to "buy" and are deeper in the line than restricted people, will you get the trade before them since you are ready to go?

Also, how are "disc" and "disc-manual" handled on waiting lists?  Is there an overall queue, or will you only be on the sub-queue for the specific format?  For example, the disc line is short...do you have to wait until a disc only seller comes up?  Or do you have an overall queue number that the system checks against different formatted sellers, so you would get a full package, although you requested disc only because you joined the queue before some other full package buyer?  Did that make sense?

Yes, you will be matched before restricted people. ie, people who are out of trade credits.

And yes, to your second question. The condition you select is the minimum condition the seller may send you. You might request disc-only, but actually receive any of the three conditions. On the other hand, if you were to request full package, you would not get matched with a disc-only seller.
