Trading in games bought at zavvi.com.....
This is probably old news to everyone but me, but I thought I'd post it anyway, just in case......
I've just traded some games in at Game, had about 8 in total that I was getting rid of. They would only take 6 of them, as the other two (CSI Hard Evidence and Bionic Commando) were "imports". I explained that I'd bought them from within the UK, but they were having none of it, even got a manager down as well.....they showed me some smallprint on the back of CSI which says that the game is not rated by the BBFC and is not suitable for sale in the UK. Both titles came from Zavvi.
Kind of annoying......didn't have time to try gamestation, but I wouldn't be suprised if they said the same thing.

Strange for Lame to refuse the chance of fleecing you while making more money for themselves.
I've had the same problem too, got MotoGP 06 and Prey, both work perfectly on my PAL 360 but because it says NTSC on the case they refuse to accept them.
You know, if I had the free time I'd hang around the shop waiting for someone to go and buy one of those games and then quickly jump in and whisper to them that I've got a copy and they can have it for half the price Lame are charging. Bitter and twisted yes, but it'd feel sooooo good
