Quick update because I am PISSED OFF.
The GBA that I ordered last month came. The billing and shipping times were atrocious, the GBA was badly packaged, it was preplayed (which was NOT noted in the product description, by the way, and price was no real indicator because I bought the older GBA, not the SP) - and Buy-Rite Videogames seems to think that "preplayed" means "scratched to hell, full of dust and grime, and partially covered with an unidentified sticky substance." I want a fucking refund. >_< If it had been preplayed and in good condition, that would be different - but I wouldn't have bought this if I'd seen it. It hadn't even been cleaned. I wrote them an email; we'll see what comes of it. But see, my policy of never buying pre-played consoles has just been justified.
