***Ready to level up your PlayStation games catalog like a collector without buying multiple lots that include games you don’t want or games chewed up by somebody’s dog and covered in GameStop stickers? If so, you’ve come to the right place!***
–
All games purchased will be in JUST OK or PRETTY GOOD or FANTASTIC or PRISTINE shape. Many game cases have been kept in a dark & dust-free environment for years. I also test all games (except NEW, of course) after purchase and before shipping and will send you a screenshot.* (1)
–
*Bundle games within lots for combined shipping + any discounts*
*Bundle individual listings for combined shipping*
–
And while you’re here…Â
Browse the hundreds of other PS4 games (and some PS5 ones) across my multiple lots and individual listings.Â
You will find the usual suspects like Madden 18 that seem to multiply like rabbits on eBay, but there are also rare jewels like an unopened copy of What Remains of Edith Finch.*Â (2)Â
Many games are single-owner copies. So no GameStop stickers or mystery goo or chewed-up game cases. This is backed up with a 30-Day Money Back Guarantee, no questions asked.* (3)
Please see below for details on how you can stack games and save. Also, if you’ve read this far, drop me a message if you have any questions whatsoever, or just want to tell me about your favorite PS games.*Â (4)

STACK & SAVE ON LOTS:
Buy 2 games – 5% off + combined shipping
Buy 3 games – 10% off + combined shipping
Buy 4+ games – 15% off + combined shipping
Deals apply across multiple lots. Do trophies stack? Not always. But these deals do.*Â (5)

Bonus Round: Each game purchase gets one 20-sided die roll. At the end of every month, the lucky person closest to 20 wins a game in their favorite genre (I choose the game). No strings attached or future purchases necessary, I even pay to ship. I also occasionally pack a free game with a random order, because who doesn’t like a free surprise?*Â (6)

End User License Agreement (EULA)
By purchasing Item (“Game“) from the Seller (“The Merchant Between Save Points“), the Buyer (referred hereforth as the ungendered “Stan” instead of PS “fanboy” or “fangirl” or “fanfurry,” etc.) hereby consents to the following binding conditions, statutes, provisions, arcane spells, and branching dialogue trees:Â
–
Stan acknowledges that all deals (“Stack & Save“) on Game purchases are final, sans eBay’s nosebleed taxes, and that all Stack & Save purchases are subject to change at the whim of The Merchant Between Save Points. Stan also acknowledges within the following provisions, clauses, and janky tank control gameplay mechanics that,Â
–
(1) condition FANTASTIC is akin to the more common VERY GOOD but maybe even slightly better, just not quite PRISTINE, as Game cases don’t have that same sheen and gloss, or that plasticky smell of unopened physical media like the latter. PRETTY GOOD is where you shrug your shoulders, happy that the Game loads, plays, and has a storage case for a home but might not look as cool on the shelf as a PRISTINE or even FANTASTIC. If a Game is JUST OK, it loads, it plays no problem, but it’s not aesthetically pleasing to look at, like it got into a knife fight at the bar and almost lost.Â
–
(2)Â Merchant Between Save Points believes wholeheartedly, per the drafting of this Agreement, that What Remains of Edith Finch squeaks by Disco Elysium as the best in the ill-defined genre ?indie game,” even with the former’s unforgivable jank, walking simulator ?gameplay? and the latter’s complex dialogue trees, CRPG mechanics, and worldbuilding. Of all the Finches in that Game’s non-dialogue family tree, Gregory and Lewis, of course, immediately come to mind. Aside from sidekick Kitsuragi, Cuno is the only side character I can remember from Disco. Fight me.
–
(3) 30-Day Money Back Guarantee, obviously, doesn’t apply to any UNSEALED Game shipped to Stan SEALED, unless the Game in question is not exactly as described by The Merchant Between Save Points, in which case Stan will receive a full refund on purchase so long as aforementioned Game is returned in exactly the same condition, i.e. UNSEALED. Furthermore, Stan will be responsible for incurring any shipping costs because that’s on you, Stan. For an UNSEALED/USED Game, if condition is not as described, The Merchant Between Save Points will refund Stan and also incur shipping charges to have UNSEALED/USED Game returned. Stan should keep in mind that this isn’t Gamefly, but The Merchant Between Save Points agrees that it was a valuable service (and apparently still exists) back in the day.
–
(4) eBay, by virtue of it being a digital marketplace, is inherently a transactional space where a Game can be exchanged for fiat currency, though a space proliferated by AI automation and Blade Runner (1982) rogue androids who not only can sell a Game much faster and with much more volume (i.e., smaller margins) than The Merchant Between Save Points, but can also bid, run auctions, and even write aggressively mediocre “Description” to go along with stock cover art that looks nothing like the actual Game; and in lieu of that, The Merchant Between Save Points can’t compete, but encourages Stan to send a message and share gaming strats, PlayStation memories of yore, latest non-shovelware platinum, or wax nostalgia about the limitless potential of the 1MB memory card of the original PS1, etc., so that the transactional feels more like an exchange between humans, not algorithms. No purchase necessary.
–
(5) Stan does not exploit glaring loophole of 30-Day Money Back Guarantee by only playing the purchased Game “until the platinum pops” and returning aforementioned Game, as such behavior would appear unethical, though not quite on the same unethical level as the $800 million rug pull Chris Roberts has managed to fleece from the PC gaming space thus far through Star Citizen.Â
–
(6) Free Game copy would not be a scratched-up loose disc or come with a case covered in GameStop stickers and… whatever else that make those cases stick together. Condition of Item will also be PRETTY GOOD or FANTASTIC or PRISTINE. And no, there is no guarantee winner will not receive a copy of Overwatch or Just Dance 2014 or, if your chosen genre is RPGs, the same troll copy of Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn, Anthem, or another Game with no download codes that have been passed around on eBay since at least 2014. But per the final clause of this Agreement, that will not happen to Stan, since The Merchant Between Save Points is all about staying as legit as it gets, because he is also a Stan and hates getting burned by shady eBay sellers, people that truly awful director of the movie Wing Commander, Chris Roberts.Â

So game on, Stan! Long live the Sony PlayStation!
