COD 5 Codes not working?

I bought one on ebay which worked fine a couple of weeks back.

Today I sold 2 on there as I happen to get sent them from call of duty website.

However both people have said the codes don't work? Are they trying to pull a fast one?

Some of the aussie codes have played up so its not unheard of.

Personally i have issues with selling something you got for free. Plenty of AV forum users have been giving them away for free to other users. Why did you need to make a profit from a beta test?

I'm not making money, I'm getting back what I have already paid out for.

I spent #10 on a code 2 weeks ago.

I am selling 2 at #5 each to get my #10 back.

If you get any more please pass one to me, and you will be forgiven

Hear Hear KrisL!!!

I was given a Little Big Planet code for my son from a member on here (Hulligan - Thanks again mate) and he wanted nothing in return.

To me it just doesn't seem right for anybody to flog something that was being given away for free.

Re: COD 5 Codes not working?

It's impossible to tell whether or not they are trying to pull a fast one. If I were you I would chalk it up as a lesson learned and refund them their money. As mentioned, you probably won't get much sympathy for profiting from something that is free. And yes, I know you paid for one, but that's your prerogative. It doesn't follow that you have to do it to someone else.
