Yes, I know this is a subject that has been brought up a LOT, and the point I'm about to make may have already been stated, but something must be done about CE items. I propose that the conditions for a collector's edition only apply to the game itself, with EVERY collectible included for every condition.

I see a lot of Collector's editions offered as disk only and disc+manual, knowing that some poor sap will probably buy them, leave negative/neutral, and watch as goozex sides with the seller. I don't see anything wrong with this setup at all; it helps buyers, while not helping people who want to take a few extra goozex points off someone else.

I agree! What if I accidentally click get now on a CE and it's disc only. What's the point of trading out a half-assed CE just because you want some extra points.

You can change your instant match preferences to where it won't go lower than full package

Its not very hard to request the right condition you want the game in.  If you want everything then request full package.  End of story.

Thx for the tip Nitro, but I still say make CE full package only, end of story.

I have to agree here. Without FP, you really get nothing for the extra points.

all discs must be included for disc only trades so if there are soundtracks or a bonus DVD then you do get something extra.

Also I dont see why people should complain.  If you want everything then request full package.

But you don't understand killmak.  We want to have our cake and eat it too!

I am not really complaining just agreeing with the OP. I pretty much request everything full package unless I accidentally click accept now, which Nitro thankfully helped me on.  But in another way to weed out shady traders through CE as Full Package only.

Heres my take, someone could request a CE for X more goozex points, knowing full well that that what they are getting just the disc (or disc + manual) BUT for those X extra points, they can get the game sooner then being in a long wait line for the "regular" edition which in most cases has a long long line when a game first comes out, so its give and take for the buyer and seller. It all depends on if its worth it to you, in that situation.

Haha a new member that makes sense. I never thought of that, great point!

But for the most part, for new games, just reg disc only ships a lot faster then it would for a CE edition.

For starters, you have to CONFIRM a get it now click. If you can accidentally click two separate buttons twice, you have bigger issues than this. IMO there should be nothing less than full package for CE's, but you can't "accidentally" do anything.

I had the collector's edition of Soul Calibur on 360 but I didn't want to send the t-shirt. I liked it. D:

 

So...I just sent it as a normal edition and held on to the boxed stuff. I mean, yeah, I could've made a few more points but it's nice being a decent person, isn't it? I know that a warning pops up when you go to offer PC games on your list that you must provide the original serial codes. Rather than changing CE to only be offered as full-package can buyers have a warning pop up to tell them that none of the CE content has to be included if they get the game as disc only or disc + manual?

 

I don't know anything about website management so if such a thing is super difficult to implement I can understand if Goozex just leaves it be.

So is the whole issue here that there are some Special Edition releases of game have the exact same game content between releases?  Even then I'm still not seeing why non-Fullpackage trades should be disallowed for these games, especially since plenty of Special Editions have new game content.  It seems a little silly to me to do something so drastic just to protect a handful of people from their own ignorance.

I had left Goozex for a while and when I came back that feature was new. And really the second one is just telling you what you get which I always click through. So yes you can accidentally do something, saying you can't is just retarded because humans do have accidents. Wow what kind of special are you.
