Glyde: a threat to GameStop?

I think I'm going to have to check this out

^The point is that games that have NEW stickers plastered all over them shouldn't have been opened and taken home/used as store demo units... and they better well include the disc in mint condition with a manual at the least. What is the point of all this BS and then shrink wrapping it up to make it look factory sealed then? List it as USED like it should be, and there wouldn't be any problems. The whole debate about these games listed as NEW isn't a big issue for me because the price premium for them usually isn't worth it so I don't bother. It's just that they shouldn't be listed as NEW because this is deceiving to consumers; especially more casual people.

I decided to get Street Fighter Alpha Anthology for 20 bucks brand new. I took it back to my hotel room only to find that it was COVERED in scratches. I would not have been mad if I bought as Used, but to me New games are pristine and free from scratches. I returned it due to its obvious not being new state though I really wanted the game.

I wish this Glyde was around when I actually sold games because I could have actually gotten SOME money when I stupidly traded in my games.

Meh on gamestop... I buy on occasion when I really want a game, but usually my area locally-owned game stores (like PlaynTrade) have the same games yet cheaper.

I've had some time to use the site and enjoy the ease of selling items.
I've sold 1 item and have one pending, should go through within the next few days.
Havn't bought anything through the site though but I am looking at a few books since those seem to go for real cheap.
