I want to buy Thief: Deadly Shadows and DX:IW, but the local stores don't carry it anymore.

I'm looking for a reputable place to buy them. For instance, I can get 'em used or from a reseller through Amazon.com, but I don't trust the resellers.

Any ideas?


[Edit: Amazon sells DX:IW themselves, so just T:DS, I guess.]

Half.com is the best option I can think of, unfortunately.

Thanks, Rob.

It might appear that I'm trying to get you guys to do the looking for me, but what I'm really wanting to know is this:

If you buy games online, where do you buy them?

That will give me places to look. Unless noone buys games online.

I've succesfully bought games from Amazon and from the Ubisoft store as well as from Valve through Steam. If the publisher has a store, you may want to just buy directly from them.

I have bought games from Amazon before, but if I can find what I'm looking for on Play then I always get it from them (some obscure titles mean I have to go on the Amazon marketplace instead).

I usually buy 1 game per year. The deals on Amazon are generally great so I get it through them. HL2 Collector's Edition 50% off w00t.

[url]www.play.com[/url] for DVD's, CD's, and games in Europe, I think they have a U.S. version at [url]www.playusa.com[/url] . [edit: Aha, but they only sell DVD's there.]
If it breaks, you get to keep both pieces.
