Used video games

Has anyone ever had any problems buying used video games?

I had an issue with a used memory card from Gamestop for my PS2.
It wouldnt be recognized by the PS2.
My brother always gets these superscrathed games and they still work.
I will be getting San Andreas pretty soon and was wondering if anyone has had any issues with a used San Andreas.

thats probably the main fear that I would have when it comes to buying used games. If you're buying from someone local, ask to see the disc first... online used game buying... just ask the person you're buying from about the condition. They'll usually give you an honest answer because they don't want a bad rating.

Just ask to see the disc and make sure you can bring it back in a 14/30 days if it dons't work.
