estarland

I was wondering what everyones experience w/ estarland has been,  I want to place an order w/ them for some 16/duo games, but i am skeptical about the conditon of the outer box w/out a picture, are their any bends, tares or creases in any of the items that they send out?

I know peoples overall experiece seems to have been postive from what i've loosely read but i'm more interested in what to expect out of the outer box.

For example they have military madnesss
CIB for 35$ which seems like a decent deal for anyone whos interested, but i don't want to get the box and have it be flattened or written on or have stickers, etc.

Thoughts and opinions appreciated

never bought from them, but have definitely seen the site a few times.  The prices are very good, but a used game with no condition rating is still a used game.  Without having any experience with them, I would maybe contact them about the condition of the box.

Yeah,
They are one of those sites that says due to the sheer volume of items we have we cannot provide individual pictues.
However, If i am unhappy w/ a used item i have 90 days to return it, which is nice but i look at it like if its in such bad condition to where i dont' want it then i am out the price of shipping in both directions at the very least

I had a great experience with them.  I bought Bravoman about two months back.  The description said "Used with Case" or something.  When I got it, it was brand spankin' new, complete with shrink wrap.  Nice, eh?

I buy from eStarland every now and again; pretty damn good site, if you ask me. Of all the used games I've bought from them (probably about six or seven), I've never been dissatisfied with the quality of the item. Plus, as far as I know (from my experience with trade-ins with them), they don't take/sell excessively damaged merchandise, so I wouldn't worry too much.

I've been to their actual locations before. Only one of them was good. They're all based in Maryland/Northern VA.

It's a four hour drive (2 up 2 back) but it's sooooo damn worth it. It's a thrill everytime.

You see, this is why we love you Ninja. You're driving 4 hours to check out 1 store.

Seriously, though, nothing beats finding a game in an actual market / store / garage sale / etc. As long as you find 1 game you want, it makes it all worthwhile.

There is a great retro video game store a little over an hour away from me that I like to go to often. The owner is really cool too so we talk to him a lot and it's certainly worth the trip. Ahh the joys of bringing home classic carts after spending the day going to a shop and talking video games with a fellow Irishman .

Haha, one time I made trips up there two days in a row. I told Keranu about this on AIM some time back. It got old kinda quickly.

Day 1: Went up there to get a Playstation 2 flip top mod. I had gotten my first Japanese PS2 game. I tried to put the thing on myself, but I bombed it. At around 4:30 AM (I was so frustrated and concentrated that I lost track of time.), I decided to just stop before it gets any worse & leave it to the professionals and went to sleep.

Day 2: Slept for six hours, and made another trip up to get the installation done by them.

Oh yes, I remember that story .
