Forums - Sony - EB Games screwing Haze?

Take a look at this... Buy Haze, play it for a week and then return it to them for full in-store credit. I can't help but think this is going to screw over Haze sales after the first week if there are a lot of used copied available.

wow that is bullshit. Why not turn it into a game rental store then...



One thing, Legend ... full in-store credit. You aren't getting your money back. That makes a lot of since in case folks don't like it.



Wouldn't EBGames have to sell them for full price once they get them back? They'd lose money if they gave full credit back to the original purchasee, and then resold the game for less than $60.



haha why would they make that? Maybe they want to sell some older games so this is like a way you spend 60$? on older games and they sell it like for 5$ less.

Yeah I understand why they're doing it, basically they might lose a bit of money having to sell it used but it guarantees them that the person who originally bought it still has to buy another game. It's obviously a way for them to try to increase sales but it's too bad they just didn't offer some kind of discount instead so that the game developers don't get screwed.



Did they went mad or something. Doesn't matter how much you hate something. You are losing money on this. I may do this.



Great



No they are not, they are trying to get ppl buy old stuff that is sitting there on the shelves, plus they wont lower the price that much, I say 5 $ max, and they would still be winning money cause of the older crap they make u pick up.

EB and Gamestop do this on every game. If you purchase any game at EB or GS you have seven days to return it for full credit. Same on used games, however, used games have 21 days vs. seven days.
