Not bad at all. How long does the sale last?


With amazon sales from specific sellers? Generally until the stock is depleted.

So I'd give it 24-48 hours. maybe more.

IGN Prime is currently being open for abuse, as if you sign up, even on their free trial, you can get a lifetime 15% discount on GamersGate, and there are currently giving away a couple of free Steam games too to Prime people.
Simply sign up here. Although you have to give them your payment details, you can simply go and turn off auto-renew here.

Of course it might be worth bearing in mind that all of Carpe Fulgur's localised titles are on GamersGate if you can't think of any games you might buy from there. 8-)

Also, in case anyone was wondering, the discount stacks with sales, and also with GamersGate's usual minion bonuses.
So you can have up to three discounts at once. :D

That "lifetime 15% discount" thing sounds too good to be true and quite fishy. I'll wait for some guinea pigs to try it out for a while before I do anything.

I've done it myself, works fine, and I have a 15% discount permanently tied to my account now. :D
It's just that I'm unsure how long the offer may last...

Seeing as quite a few people have jumped on the bandwagon already, it's perfectly fine. It's not cost me a penny.
IGN isn't that bad. :P

Just have to keep in mind it doesn't apply the discount to display prices, only afterwards when at the checkout. 8-)

I'd like to add that you can be doubly sure you've cancelled by using Paypal and cancelling the subscription there. Anything cancelled via Paypal overrides the automatic payment.

How is Jeanne D'Arc?

EDIT: I'm still unsure on the "lifetime 15% discount" thing, but maybe I just need a final push before I go through with it...

It works, LAMV. I've already cancelled. And like I said: if you use Paypal, you can cancel any recurring subscriptions through them and it'll override anything any company has that requests funds from your account.

I wish I could justify those purchases. :(

Wait, explain that again. I've only ever used Paypal twice in my lifetime, and I've already forgotten when I used it the first time. I always use the "Moneybrokers - Credit Card" option when I buy things from GamersGate.
