Most of the games I have owned were purchased without playing. There are just no games on location anywhere near me and being in a rural area the exposure to a variety of games was always limited. The last one I bought without playing was the Getaway. Everyone said it was awesome and so far it is.

Quoted from CrazyLevi:

Actually the exact opposite.
Buying an unfamiliar game for the right price, you won't lose money, might make a few bucks.
Most NIB purchases will result in you losing money. People who bought Mustang lost $500 or more if they realized they didn't like it. And lots of people realized that.

This is how I usually do it. I buy a bunch I haven't played but I am yet to lose money on one when I get rid of it. Basically means I sold all the good ones and kept the crappers HAHAHA.
