They have some of the worst turn around time known to man. I live thirty miles from there shipping facility here in Southern CA and it took a week for games to come back my way. And they always suspiciously got lost in the mail. Good luck! No hate to say this but Gamefly is just that bad. They have some of the worst turn around time known to man.

My experience consisted of waiting about a week and half for games. Granted I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico (pop est. 600,000) but Netflix gets movies to me next day if it's in the Albuquerque warehouse. I've got movies quicker from Alaska than my fastest turnaround using Gamefly's warehouse in California. Blockbuster ships movies to me from Las Vegas, NV which takes 2-3 days, not bad not great. My only hope is that Netflix buys Gamefly or starts their own video game service. Also Gamefly's CS is the worst I've dealt with EVER.

Shipping times have only gotten better with the addition of rapid return and the new distribution center. It's a bummer your first game didn't work but I suppose it's only logical that once in a while something will get damaged. Particularly something being shared with the public at large. I've had worse luck with Blockbuster as far as that goes. Anyway, don't get discouraged and don't let these commenters scare you off. It's the best video game rental service out there and it pays for itself.

gameznflix…. 8.99 for 1 out at a time

12.99 for 2 out at a time

16.99 for 3 out at a time

almost 50% less than gamefly…. and they have movies too, included in those prices… and they have more distribution centers than gamefly (9 vs. 2)

inventory might be were gamefly wins….. but gameznflix is a young company that is growing slowly, but surely
