You'll have to phone Sega with the serial and access codes and see if they can reset the account they are tied to.
If you are English then go to http://www.playsega.com and register there. If it tells you your numbers are already registered then phone sega on 08456 090 090. Tell them that it's preowned and you need to create a new account so you can buy a HL. You probably won't get your free 30 days though.

thanks... i wasn't expecting the free 30 days anyway

I've tried ringing Sega UK & they say I have to get the original owner to delete their account, which is fine if I knew who they were! Can anyone help out with another way?
Does just using a code from PSO3 work (without PSO3)?
Cheers

Yeah I had the same problem myself with Ep I&II - I contacted Sega Europe, and Sega USA. Both said that I would need to contact the original owner or just return the copy to the shop for a refund.

Well I just got myself Ep III and used the access, and serial for both games but no 30 day free.

But I quick search with Kelkoo revelled the following sites offering PSO Ep I&II (PAL) for GC.

MX2 - £34.99 (Its about half way down the page).

HMV - £39.99

Both offering Ep I&II! - Mods you may like to sticky a topic with sites offering PSO Ep I&II to buy? and also in the future offering Ep III!

If you are in the UK, you could always pop into WHSmiths. I saw two copies in Manchester for £15!! ^_^ how cheap is that.
