i was given a $50 gift card and i can't figure out what to do with it.

stipulations are:

1 - it has a 5.99 purchase fee, every time a transaction is made i get dinged, so to make the best use of it, i should be buying items/item in a single transaction. so in reality it is a 44.01 gift card

2 - it can't be combined with other forms of payment (at least that i have figured out) so items have to be $44 with shipping included

Scotch ! single malt at least 15 years old... :lol:

You know its a crying shame they ding you with fees like that, sounds like a crime to me :( but none the less, use it well, and remember when you drink "its toe the pure life" as John Wayne said.... :)

I've got 2 DDR pads. My daughter doesn't use them anymore. I'd let you have em cheep if you really want them. 1 is the original that comes with the game and the 2nd is a ? brand. Not quite as nice as the one that comes with the game.

Not trying to shark here lads of course..

But, I have 3 ps2 games.

I want like $10 + shipping for all 3.

They are..

Worms 3D.

Midway arcade treasures 2 - Inc -MKII, MK3, Gauntlett 2, Spy Hunter 2, Xybots, Narc, A.P.B (the reason I got it lol) Cyberball 2072, Timber, Total Carnage, Pit Fighter (Homeboy ! lmao) Wizard of Wor, Xenophobe, Primal Rage, Arch Rivals, Rampage world tour, Kozmik krooz'r, Wacko, Hard drivin, Champ sprint.

And VF4 Evolution.

None were used more than once, when I say new I mean new.. All I did was dump them onto the hard drive, so theyre mnity fresh brand new.

As I say, $10 plus actual shipping, Id say shipping will be around $7 - $8 lower 48.
