haha i thought i got it too, someone was going to send it but the shipping ended up being really expensive so it was unfortunate :lol

ugh and looking at my pm's apparently the GG was sent (by Pewp, you are still the man even if it didn't work out:lol ) but it got returned saying that address didn't exist and I guess I drifted away from gaf for a bit and never noticed his reply pm :(
EDIT: i dug up the greatest giveaway in this thread for some of you of you to reminisce about and newcomers to be amazed...behold...it comes with fuckin' MEGABASS!!!!!!

Haha, I knew I sent it to you. I thought it got lost in the abyss of disappearing mail. I hope you liked it.

And hey, that's even my signature at the bottom, hahaha, nice. Thanks for reposting a pic of it!
 
For some reason, I originally preordered Killzone 2 at Best Buy, and I received a code for an exclusive PSN theme. For some bizarre reason, the code doesn't work for me, so I'm willing to give it to someone else to see if they have better luck. If you are interested, PM me and I will send the code.

Keep in mind that it may not work.

When did you last try the code? I had that same problem too at first, then the code ended up working on Feb. 6th rather than the 3rd like it says on the card.

But don't let that stop you from giving it away though. ;)
 
I have PlasticMan No. 13 and 18

If anyone wants them shoot me some backstory or experiance with comics or why you want them + $3 Paypal to cover shipping.

Ooh I'll take it if it's still available.

Oh really? I didn't try it yesterday. Oh well, I've received some sweet stuff for free lately, so I thought it was time to give something in return. Hopefully it works.

You can still enter the code to test it, just make sure not to confirm the transaction.
 
I'm clearing through some of my OPMUK magazines, and instead of throwing them away, would anyone on GAF want them?

I'll post the issues at a later point.
 
Perhaps a DSi owner here would dig this little set of items.

DSi-themed pins, a screen cloth, and a little sheet of magnets.

Let me know if you'd like the lot.

EDIT: sca2511 just PM'd me saying he wants them. Hopefully you enjoy them!
 
Went digging through old crap again and turned up a Quickjoy III joystick (used to use with C64) and Master System control pad. No idea if they still work, although I dunno why they wouldn't. Quick phone snap...

Any takers? UK/Euro preferred for postage cheapness.
 
Why hullo thar!

I'm feeling generous, and I don't believe this thread should die. Therefore, I've decided to offer something to one lucky winner!

The prize: Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories for the GameBoy Advance! <---- Cartridge only!

All you need to do is send a PM with your name and address!

Please make sure you add your name and address, or else I'll give it to someone else who actually read the requirements.

US only, please!


Good luck!

Mr. Spinnington wins the game. I'm surprised he was the only one to ask for it.


I guess no one likes Kingdom Hearts, even when it's free. :lol

I don't think that was the problem. I think it's cuz he wrote "PM'd!!! DIBS!!!"

I would have asked for it if he didn't PM first.
 
oh, I just pm'd

guess i should have read the thread, eh?

i'll give away my copy of Brain Age 1 for DS. PM me your name/address. 7th person to pm gets the game. comes complete in box.
 
I'm curious... when you guys offer free stuff here, do you also pay for shipping? Or is that for the receiver to incur? I've got some things to offer and just want to know the proper etiquette. Living in Canada, shipping is typically more costly (because the postal workers keep going on strike!)
 
Ok so this thread is dead as hell and I have a lot of stuff I don't really need, so I thought I'd give a little bit of life back into it. I have a shitton to give away, but not much money to ship, so I separated it into 3 big prizes, one each week: A How to draw manga prize, a Anime prize, and finally a videogame prize. The actual contents of each pack will remain secret until the winner decides to gloat about it.

The way this'll work is; I make an arbitrary contest with loose rules and whoever wins gets it. This way Mr.Spinnington is not guaranteed to win.
The first bunch up is the How To Draw Manga prize pack, which is 8 How to Draw Manga books, 7 graphic novels and a handful of single-issue comics.

The Contest:
Whoever makes the best worst anime drawing in MSpaint(or equivalent) wins. post your entries in this topic. you can draw your favorite scene, make fun of someone else's, do an anime style demi avatar, whatever. It just has to be awesome.

The rules:
1. no limit to number of entries
2. uses of memes such as "dibs" and the fresh prince will win you extra points
3. Winning entry will show lack of actual skill(hence the how to draw books)
4. liking anime/manga is not required or even encouraged
5. judging will be completely arbitrary based on my mood and not on a points scale
6. have fun
7. final entries due friday at midnight
8. don't pm me anything until I've decided you've won
9. ????
10. profit

Whatever you feel like offering. I typically pay for shipping on things I offer up if it's less than $3.
 
Giving away a few Pokemon and some Yu-Gi-Oh magazines away, some person gave them to me a while ago and they just sit there. Shipping is $6 and here's the list:

Pocket Games, Volume 1
Pokemon: Official Nintendo Player's Guide
Pokemon Report (Tips & Tricks Collectors' Edition)
Pokemon: Trainer's Guide (Covers Gold & Silver, magazine is a bit torn up and pages fell off but they are all there)
Unofficial Guide To Hit Sensations: Yu-Gi-Oh
 
Super Mario Bros/Duck Hunt w/sleeve, Alpha video game case, and manual

DS Lite stylii. remember the rainbow DS stylii that was being given away on the Nintendo Cluc a few years ago? This is that set. It's still in the silver box it came in. Note: this isn't the one that came with the DS case, it's just a box with stylii in it.

Finally, the Zelda Feather Pen Stylus. It's shaped like a...wait for it...feather pen and is made of clear plastic. Comes in its own custom themed box.

to win the stylii, just be the first to post how I came to own these. one per winner, m'kay?

to win the NES game, who is the person you defeat in the 5th airship in SMB3?
 
I have Half-Life 2 + Episode 1 on Steam to give away for free.

The first person to quote this can have either or both (state your preference). PM me with your Steam id and I'll do it when I get home (4+ hours from now).

I'd like Half Life 2 please
 
Anyone have the Jak and Daxter 1,2,3 series on PS2 and willing to let me borrow it?

I will mail each back within a few weeks or so after playing through.
 
oooh, a collection of how to draw manga books? I'd totally be interested in entering for that. I hope we could extend the deadline a few days, though.

my entry:
