That's because their profit margin is huge on used games, so they like to sell those ones.

But, I always buy used. The only recent exceptions have been SR2 and LBP. Partially because I just don't have the money to spend upwards of $70 on a game, and because why the hell should I when there are hundreds of games out there for anywhere from $10-$40. Why buy NHL '09 for $75 when I can get '07 for $15? Doesn't make sense.

Im more of a renter than a buyer. <3 gamefly. But when I do buy games I usually go for the untouched ones because I like the smell of a new game. I have sold a few games and bought a few used ones, but I do not see anything wrong with buying them used.
