I feel the urge...

I almost broke down a couple seconds ago and made my way over to Rhino games...  must... resist!  So I came in here to bitch about my fading resolve.  [b]I will not purchase Madden '08 until it drops below $39 used!!![/b]   That should be in like 2 months.  I can do it!

Almost done with Darkness as I'm on the final mission.  I don't know what's more exciting... finishing the game or returning the game to GameFly.  I have 6 Netflix movies out at any one time and the next usually shows up 2 days after I send in a return.  The first return for GameFly it had to go all the way back to Cali from my home state of Alabama and then my queue sat for 2 days until #6 on the list was sent to me.   I did send one back last week though and they got some sort of pre-notification I guess cause #4 on my list was sent out even before they received it.  GRAW2 should be here today!

I'm not real thrilled with them bypassing up to 5 games on my queue in order to send one out else waiting as many as 4 days to send out your next game if you don't have more than one in your Queue.  $21.99 / month seems a little steep for that but I'll give it a chance to develop.  You'd think that the PA distribution center would be closer to me down here than Cali but it only serves New England to Chi town.

I will not buy Madden....  I will not buy Madden...

I have the same shipping woes with Gamefly, but the scan at the post office does help with pre-returns. I've found that if I don't put anything in my queue until the day after I ship the game. I get exactly what I want and right away. I do keep pending releases in the queue so I don't forget them.

sweet! thanks. I'll clean it out today. At first when the Shipping notice came it was the day I put the darn thing in the mailbox to return. I thought mistakenly they had increased the number of games out to 3.
