The lesser of 2 evils. It's either GameStop, or EB Games.
Though both do pay you nearly nothing for used games, EB Games tends to give more in-store credit for those who wish to do that instead of getting cold hard cash.
EB Games has a wider selection, more console support, and the customer service usually acts like customer service should, unlike GameStop where they try to sell you a bunch of extra stuff you don't need, and don't babble in your ear about their personal opinions.

EB Games Scenario
EB Games: Welcome. How may I assist you today?
Me: I just would like to get Battlefield 2 for PC.
EB Games: Alright, here you are, we index all of our games so we actually know what people are looking for.
Me: How much will this come to.
EB Games: Only about $10.
Me: Ah, that's nice.
EB Games: *Rings up game* Have a nice day.
Me: You too.

GameStop Scenario
GameStop: YO! What are you looking for today man?
Me: Just Battlefield 2 for PC.
GameStop: Nah man, get Battlefield 2142! Way better!
Me: No, I want Battlefield 2.
GameStop: Why? It's got future weapons!
Me: I already said, I want Battlefield 2.
GameStop: Do you have an ID to verify your age?
Me: You're kidding right?
GameStop: Sorry sir, we need ID for EVERYONE who buys games rated over E.
Me: I thought it was M.
GameStop: Alright sir calm down. If you don't have an ID I can't sell you the game.
Me: ...
GameStop: If you buy Battlefield 2142 I will not card you. ;-)
Me: LISTEN! I do NOT want to buy Battlefield 2142! I already own it, and I want Battlefield 2. I don't care to listen to your stories about how it's so much better. JUST RING UP MY DAMN GAME!
GameStop: Do you have ID?
Me: ...FUCK YOU. I'm going to EB Games. Have fun being a virgin forever, chicks don't like guys who masturbate to half-naked 3D characters in games. Do us all a favor, and just die.

To purchase a game from EB Games (Australia/NZ) with the intention of returning it within the 7 day return period and getting a refund; essentially it is like a free rental. Also occasionally used to refer to doing the same thing at a GAME store, but not as often as they only offer store credit and not cash.
In common use on Australian forums such as Whirlpool and PALGN.

The new Assassin's Creed game is too short and not that great. Worth playing, but I'd only give it an EB rental.

Unusually amazing boobs belonging to the seldom few females lucky enough to have them.
They are sacred and should be treated as such.
