Waiting hurts my soul...
Guess it was a bad idea...
See a really good deal on a game, but you're not planning on buying it for yourself (or maybe the deal has multiple copies available)? This is probably best place for a thread like this. Whether you're... trying to get someone to run the game, want someone to play an under appreciated title, or maybe the deal is just that good.

I'm hoping people who run across good deals on ebay, craigslist, or any other place will take the time to announce it here. Then some lucky person who wasn't searching for the game in the same place will happen across this thread and connect with the right people to make that transaction happen.

Note: This isn't meant to be another place to post about WTS, WTB, or WTT. This is more of a place to post some good deals you've found that others could take advantage of without having to do all the footwork. Some necessary information, Game (and System if ambiguous) and Price (plus region of the game) obviously. Condition rating if available 1 - 5 should work (1 - only cart/disc, 2 - includes instructions, 3 - includes everything, 4 - no scratches on discs or marks on the cart, 5 - new in shrink wrap). Contact is the person a buyer should contact if they're interested (this could be you as a middleman or a direct contact. Middleman is yes (meaning the contact person is acting as a middleman that will handle the money and shipping), or no (meaning it's a direct contact to the seller/website). Expires is for if there is an expiration date, otherwise I'd suggest putting asap meaning the game could be picked up at any second.

UPDATE:  After contacting the seller earlier in the day I found that he had forgotten about some games that he had already sold. I have updated the post to reflect the games that I know to be sold.  My apologies for any inconvenience.

I saw an ad from on my local craigslist for Square Enix games, and have dealt with the seller previously.  For sale are the following:

The World Ends With You - $10
Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days - Essentia

Also, since I know that there has been some interest in them, I saw a Gameboy Advance player for the Gamecube, with the disc, at a store about an hour from me for about $20.  I am heading there on Tuesday and thought that if anyone would be interested, I could pick it up.

Sorry for the long post and I don't think that the prices are negotiable, but don't really want to waste the time to find out, so if the price plus the cost of shipping sounds ok, let me know.
Again, sorry to add to a long post, but in case it makes a difference, the games are all non-Greatest Hits, with manual and case or box.  Also, all I bought looked clean, with no scratches in the case of discs; legitimate GBA carts, with matching serials, Nintendo printed on the board (yes, I disassembled them to check), and working; or in the case of DS games, matching serials and working.  I wouldn't have posted if I weren't sure that they weren't bootlegs. 
Everything's better with Magitek
How much is Kingdom Hearts: 358/2 Days?  I'd be interested in it, Final Fantasy 3, and FFXII: Revenant Wings.
Waiting hurts my soul...
I'm interested in these:

Children of Mana - $5
Valkyrie Profile 2 - $10
Tales of Destiny 2 - $25.00 (as long as it has the original case and instructions, and no severe damage)
Break through the final confusion
Not sure if this is useful to anyone, but are Metroid Prime original versions (GM8E 0-00) hard to come by these days? Because last time I went to my local Gamestop, there was like 5 or so used copies of the game for $3 or something like that (I'd have to check, but it was definitely less than $5). I even confirmed that they were the GM8E 0-00 versions - the guy was nice enough to let me check all of them and even take the disk that looked the least used (I ended up buying one for my brother, since they were so cheap!).

So yeah, let me know if you're interested! They're in the old Gamecube used rack so I have no idea how long they'd last...
Essentia:  I'll check on the price of KH 358/2 Days and availability of the others via email and let you know when I know.  I'm likely to pick up KH 358/2 Days regardless as I'll likely take it if you don't want it.

ZenicReverie: As long as you don't mind me assessing for damage, as I would have to drive a bit to see them and wouldn't want to waste a drive to get a game I don't want, sure, no problem.  I'll post pictures of the discs I received.  I consider them to be as clean as a game that has been played can be.  Light swirl marks are present on all discs.

I won't be able to get them until Monday, assuming that no one else has bought them, and would ship USPS Priority with delivery confirmation, which when last I checked would be $5.55 for shipping.  I'm not trying to make any money on this, and you can check on the USPS website to confirm this.  Payments can be made via Paypal, with information given when I get the games.  And yes, I do have an anally retentive attention to detail.

scratch that my ps3 just died again

edit2: scratch the scratch that I just fixed it again since I was feeling oddly motivated this morning. Here's to hoping it lasts longer than 6 weeks this time.

ff7 $30
fforigins $10
kingdom hearts $15
drakengard $10

$65 + shipping. Let me know if you can get these. <3
The original post about the craigslist ad was updated to reflect potential buyers, so as not to get duplicate requests.  I have not heard from the buyer yet, but as the local college is at finals week, this is not surprising.  I hope everyone gets what they ask for and please remember that Paypal is the preferred payment type, but others may be worked out, just PM me and let me know before you ask since I only have a limited amount that I can spend to hold games for methods that require more time.
Waiting hurts my soul...

Just use your best judgment I guess. I don't like to see a lot of scratches. What do you mean by light swirl marks? Circular scratches are a big no. Otherwise it should be fine I guess. If you can test the games before you ship them that would be great. Shipping and payment is fine.
Essentia- Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days is $20.  All your requests are on hold until Monday, when I can pick them up.

ZenicReverie- Your requests are on hold.  The light scratches on the discs that I received are barely there, but radial in nature, not circular.  Essentially, the types of marks that you would see on any PS1 disc that has been played but well taken care of. 

dballin- I didn't get your requests in time to ask about them in my initial email.  I will send another tonight and find out if they are available.  Let me know about any special requests, such as rejection for disc quality, or anything else.

To all others: I hope that anyone else who might want anything from that list would get back to me by Sunday night so I can check on the status.  However, at the moment, the total that I am offering to buy and be reimbursed for is $161.65 if shipping were included.  I can really only offer to extend around $140 more, so, I hope that I don't sound like too much of a dick when I say please limit the amount to that and that it is obviously first come first serve.
Everything's better with Magitek
Sounds good.  I'm fine paying through Paypal.
I'm sorry to disappoint anyone, but 3 of the games have been sold.  I found out when I checked on dballin's requests.

Essentia- The seller forgot he sold FF12: Revenant Wings, oddly enough, to me.  I thought it was strange that he was selling two copies.

ZenicReverie- Tales Of Destiny 2 was sold, but the seller had forgot.  Please let me know prior to Monday if you are still interested in the others.

dballin- FF: Origins is not available, the others are on hold until Monday when I pick them up.

cool. ps3 worked for about 90 seconds before dying again. I'll still take the games though. $55 plus shipping then. How do I pay you?

edit: it works now? I'm going to throw it out the window holy christ.

edit2: nope dead again lmao this is a fun game

edit3: ahhh it works! taking out the game that's in there now. this would be significantly less entertaining if I was 100% sober. Sad

anybody wanna buy a launch day ps3?

That's fine. Yeah, I'm still interested in the other two.
All games have been picked up and seem in good condition.  Please contact me via PM or email to get Paypal information.  All games will be shipped tomorrow if payment has been received early enough for me to make it to the post office, sorry that I could not mail them today, but I wasn't able to pick them up until after the post office closed.
On another note, pictures of the games can be posted or sent if requested, this specifically applies to ZenicReverie, as I know that he would not want a game with any scratches.

Sent you some dollars and cents. Thought i was getting a ridiculous deal on ff7 but either I'm making up the fact that a BL copy sold for like $70 or the price has plummeted. Who knows? Now all I have to do is buy a playstation on which to play my new old games that I've already owned at least once before. Sweet!

just sent you my address. sorry for being a retard.

No problem dballin.

Essentia and dballin's packages were sent out today.  I'll get the delivery confirmation numbers to you.  They are both expected to be delivered on Friday, 5-14.

No problem, I'm glad that you got them and that you both approved the condition of the games.  Enjoy them.
