    " Donate plasma my friend. I make about $50 extra bucks a week that i spend on games"

    Ahhh those were the days! I used to pay my rent with plasma money when I was livin on my own as a teenager. Donate then straight to the 7-11 for a 40oz. In hindsight I can't believe how badly I abused myself. I'm sure I'm not alone in these life experiences...haha

I have used ebay A LOT and have only had one problem years ago when i first started. So i purchased it. That night, 45 copies were sold and still going. It didnt make sense. I started reading the feedback left buy others. All of them were left that day. Each thing he purchased was " positive feedback". People on ebay charge $1 to give positive feedback so thats what this person did. Then i checked his other listings. He was selling all the current top games for cheap with an umlimited amount. I reported him to ebay and by the time i went to bed last night, someone wrote on his feedback, SCAM!... When i woke up, his account is no longer registered. Then i found another account with him doing the same thing, selling the same games and everything. Now that is gone too

      So i have to dispute the charge. Ebay makes me wait 1 week ( or after estimated delivery date), but its a scam and im not waiting, so i filed a charge. Well i emailed them and said its a scam, can they cancel the transaction.. But how much does that stink!? I thought i was getting a great deal. But after selling a total 58 games of the show and selling all top games, thats suspicious!
      If it seems too good to be true it probably is...should have rode on down to the local Wal Mart my friend..Go Red Sox

          You could always rent thru gamefly or something like that. I don't own my copy. I rented it using powerplay from movie gallery.

            Just pay the retail price...goodness gracious. To save $16 you'd be willing to gamble on ebay on deal that really does sound too good to be true? Not worth it bro. Granted a lot of games these days are not worth $60, but if there is a game that's actually worth full retail it's The Show.

                Haha, good deal man. I have gone through over 600 transactions on ebay (more selling though) and remember having a problem just once. Ironically enough, it was for mlb 08 the show. Enjoy it man and glad you saved $16.

                    This may not be the case, but to me this seems like one of two things:
                    1) Copies of games

                    2) Someone pulled a robbery of a bunch of new games and selling them quick and cheap on eBay

                    Just my 2 cents, but that is the feeling I get from this.

                        Those are possible. Once i get home and inspect the game. I will post if its real or not.. i assume if its fake, it wont look like the real game.. the description said brand new and sealed. if it is a copy, i will be disputing the charge.
