I agree with everything you said.

J&R is pretty old school, its my first purchase from them and possibly my last. Their warranty is only 14 days so I have to make sure this thing doesnt crap out on me after a couple hrs of use. Thats why I played MW3 for 4 hrs straight lol.

Btw MW3 isn't as good as black ops 2. Are there any other recommended ps3 games?

Normally I do shop around but yeah lately time is very limited. Wish I could spare the time and energy to do the eBay thing but career is consuming me whole lol. I have sold tons of stuff via CL and amazon when I had the time.

I will however take your advice and buy from Amazon better than GameStop. Your right about them not being the best but they do offer convenience and it works for some.

Amazon is even more convenient especially with a Prime account. At your door in 2 days.

Yes indeed. Just signed up. Saves me the trip up the block and the wait behind some grandma trying to get her grandkids the latest game lol

Question about Prime. For the free two day shipping fulfilment has to be by Amazon right?

For the most part yes. Sometimes though other's will offer it. When you're searching for something you'll now be able to filter by prime eligible stuff if you want.
