I have purchased games from EBgames in the past. I've been impressed how quickly they stock new PC games in the US.

I like EB Games, though one thing they do that drives me nuts is that they break the seal on all their PC games. When you purchase a PC title from them, they pull out the empty box from one place, then walk off to another area and retrieve the media, manuals and any other included content. At least this has been my experience with local EB Games retailers.

Why not? I've been buying DVDs from Amazon using debit card for years. I don't buy games from them because it is much more exp than if I buy from where I live. And they don't ship games overseas.

That's strange. We never did that at the EB I worked at. We did it with console games we put out for display, but we always sold the sealed packages first. The only time we sold the opened games was if it was the last one we had left, and we always asked the customer first if they were ok with the fact that it was opened.

Wierd.

No Visa or Mastercard logo (or other accepted major carrier) = no online purchases.
