Because I have the hookup at my local Gamestop (that I am probably getting a job at), here's how I got my Black Ops.
Went in to trade in Fable 3 and Red Faction: Guerrilla + money for Black Ops.
My friend that works there wanted RF:G and said that the store would pay me two dollars for it, but he would give me five out of his pocket. And I said that's cool.
When he rings up Fable 3 he said "I'm sorry that your copy of Fable 3 didn't work, sir. I'll gladly give you another game for it." and without trading in Guerrilla, the store owed me five dollars, which I put towards my Dead Space 2 pre-order.
I let him have RF:G for free, because he's my friend, he helped me out with that and is possibly getting me a job there.
This concludes the story of how I got Black Ops.
Lame story aside, I've been enjoying Black Ops. Story is pretty cool (not on par with COD4, imo.) But the multiplayer and the Zombies + Dead Ops modes all make it worth it. I can dig it.
