Its wierd, some stores do while others havent. I think though, at the one GS that doesnt check my ID, its because I originally bought my edge card there, everytime they scan it they read off my name, so I assume they already have some sort of info on me.

Anyways, finally a 360 coupon. And for anyone who's wondering:

For a $54.99 used game (Usual price of a recently released game) sans tax:

$41.25 w/o Edge Card
$35.75 w/ Edge Card

Masquerade

This one is usable. A lot of good games for a decent price. I been trying to find Burnout paradise for cheap so this may come in handy.

Don't have an edge card though. Don't trade in games so I never end up breaking even. I have before but not always.

I think it is definitely worth $10 if you have anyone to play local multiplayer with. It only has four maps but it is still the best local multiplayer FPS on the Wii (Metroid Prime 3 has none, Medal of Honor Heroes 2 is online only, and Medal of Honor Vanguard is pretty bad). Even the single player I feel is worth $10 because it is pretty unique but you might not like it if you have been spoiled by the superior controls in Metroid and Heroes 2.

If you've got Edge and see a game you want in stock and complete, do it now. You never know what games will be around later and/or if you're going to want to drop the cash on 2 at a time.

I'm thinking Lost Odyssey, but I might wait longer for it to drop. $50 used before coupon and Edge seems a little high, I think it could do a Blue Dragon and bottom out by the end of the year.

Re: Edge Cards


They are $15 instore, and they include a subscription to Game Informer magazine. The GI subs also have extra GS coupons many months.


Many CAGs have gotten their Edge cards for $2(including me 8-)). Thereis a thread in this forum about that.

FYI they've closed that loophole, and the new form charges $10 for card alone

Special edition (black cover i believe) has the "expansions" in it, shivering isles and knights of the nine or whatever they are called. I'm looking to pick up the expansion (i borrowed the regular version) and completing this collection. if you can find the expansion its 24.99 used - so i think buying them seperate might actually be better (depending on the CE price...)

If you wanted Burnout Paradise it would have been better to get it from Gamefly for $19.99 with tax and shipping will be cheaper than GS and Devil May Cry 4 is on sale for $19.99 also.

With B2G1, you're basically getting 33% off on each game. With this coupon and edge, it's 35% and no need to find 3 similarly priced games. Only drawback is that it's 360 only.

I know they had a GCN and XBOX one not too long ago. I just noticed that my local EBgames just got a MVC2 PS2 game in, and I'm thinking of hitting that shit up.

if they had mvc2 at my gamestop, complete and i good shape, i'd happily pick it up with only 10% off, then resell it and make $20-$30 profit.

Yep, you can. I forgot about that.

I like amazon better personally, since it's one fee, and you don't have to deal with 2 fees like if selling on ebay, both ebay and paypal fees. Amazon does undercharge on shipping heavier items though, but it's quite reasonable for just normal games and dvd's and such.

Hmm....tempting prices. I'm curious if the coupons are on a cycle. This same coupon was released back on April 18th-April 24th. On April 25th, the next promotion afterwards was B2G1. No coupon was needed.

So, for those waiting for B2G1...if the cycle is the same as three months ago....next Friday (July 11th) may be that B2G1 sale.

That is if there is a repeating cycle.

A few prices from some of my pickups today (after coupon & edge)

360:

Viking Battle for whatever $17.54 trade at Gamerush for $32
Sega Superstars Tennis $11.69 trades at GR for $25
Condemned 2 $17.54 trades at GR for $32

-----------------

Mahjong Quest DS for my moms care package $17.99 lol


Most importantly though I made SEVERAL copies of the email coupon and handed them out to people looking at 360 games. Everyone was happy and a few kids were very happy as it allowed them to get an extra game. :D Only hit 3 of my 5 local stores. Condemned 2 was impossible to to find i was thinking then the last store had a ton of them. Going back tomorrow to get more to trade and 1 for me. Saw 2 Aerosmith Guitar Heros used (about 37.50 after discounts) as well, was kinda surprised but didn't see any Battlefields or anything else super new besides one copy of Ninja Gaiden 2.

Aerosmith GH 360 used are at the GS on Mall Road and Ninja Gaiden was at GS besides Sams in Florence if any locals are interested... I almost grabbed AGH but it you are Gamerush savy you can get the $100 game/guitar bundle for $50ish cash by flipping. :D

For real man everyone here should do it, ink is dirt cheap if you refill your own and i print in black.

These kids were trading in a pile or their own games and paying outta there own pockets so they were shits and giggles happy. Gave another to some kid and his grandpa who was trading in his own games as well. Plus every mom and dad gonna be happy to save maybe $15 on a new(used) game and might splurge on there kid for something else. Or if you gave me the coupon i'd use my money to buy more lube. ;)

Blockbuster and Gamerush Blockbusters are the same store as far as trade in values go. They all take used games but be prepared for employees who don't know how to do trades at both stores usually. The only difference is NON-Gamerush Blockbusters do not get as many new games and sometimes do not carry systems. That being said my local nonGR Blockbusters are starting to carry more and more new game stuff.

yea i havent traded games to non-Gamestop stores in quite a while, so i forgot which gamestore was affiliated with which video store :lol:

yea, the thing i hate about not having a gamerush is that they don't get in newly released games :( at least they didn't when i used to trade stuff to them a few years ago...they carry new titles now though?

that would make trading games their MUCH more appealing to me 8-) since i don't rent much and I dont watch many movies on DVD

I'd print out the coupon with the GS.com URL in the corner just to be safe. The employee that took my coupon was like "this is one of our best coupons ever" and took mine without any sort of questioning at all, so it's always gonna be YMMV on employee reactions to coupons.

hostyl1
07-05-2008, 12:52 AM
seeing as though the coupon itself has the icon of a pair of scissors along the dashed line, I think it's fair to infer that the coupon may indeed be cut out. I've never had a problem with using the coupons no matter what way I printed them (I usually right-click and "print picture")

joshnorm
07-05-2008, 12:52 AM
Wow, someone traded in BF:BC already?

Yes I seriously debate buying a game new anymore since my GS's have a bunch of spoiled children and they trade in games by the weekend of release date. I remember seeing a DMC4 the day after it came out. The employee said the kid beat the game and was done within the day.

Then again I really don't spend money out of pocket for games anymore since BB and GS flips have been very good to me.

UCLAevo
07-05-2008, 12:55 AM
With B2G1, you're basically getting 33% off on each game. With this coupon and edge, it's 35% and no need to find 3 similarly priced games. Only drawback is that it's 360 only.

is b2g1 stackable with edge? if so, you actually get 33% + 6.6% (10*2/3) per game for about 40%.

Yes, it does. The question is can you always find three things that you want that are the same price...if not you are not getting the full discount. Some people think the % off coupons are better because they offer greater flexibility.

dg7md
07-05-2008, 01:12 AM
I prefer this to a B2G1, because as Yensid said: it's much more flexible than a straight up B2G1 deal because you don't need to find three games the same price for total savings.

Forza 2: $4 + 0.40(Edge Card) +$5(Bonus)

Return it... now please. Bomberman will give you an easy 100 GS or so. It takes well over 300 hours(maybe even over 500 hours) to get 100% of the GS.


Yeah, I kinda realize that now. I might return it; if I don't it was only $6

You can make GS credit with this coupon:
Buy a Marvel UA/Forza 2 Pack for $11.69(after using 25% coupon and Edge Card.- Reg. $17.99-) then trade them in (make sure to give them 2 disc only).

Forza 2: $4 + 0.40(Edge Card) +$5(Bonus)
Marvel AU :$3 + 0.30(Edge Card) + $5 (Bonus)
= $17.7

You make $6.01 GS credit

Good deal. I will be doing this a few times today. Unless they dropped the price of the Forza and MAU before the deal.

Bought GRAW 1 & 2 for $24 and change....

Guitar Hero: Aerosmith is available as used when I went yesterday but for $54.99 and no DLC announced, I don't think it's worth it. I'll wait til it drops down to $30 or more.

picked up Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 & Lost Via Domus for $41.32 after tax... I think I'm going to get an Edge card tho... and grab a few more games... probably newer games.

Ujn, I had the opposite problem at my GS. They had a perfect case and manual and when I went to purchase it he took a few minutes checking around and told me they didn't seem to have anymore. I was kinda bummed but what can you do?

Really? Honestly? I think GI has garbage reviews compared to EGM. Every game gets 7's, even if its terrible. Even with the editors and such leaving, I put more trust in The Ziff Davis magazines (what once was CGW/GFW, the 1up network, and EGM) than the magazine that exists to sell games for gamestop.

No offense, just my opinion.

I never said GI was a good magazine... my point was there is more crap than anything these days... surprised that load of crap gamepro hasn't folded by now

EGM is nothing like it once was... I remember the good old days when they were really big (SFII days)

It looks exactly like the regular Ultimate Alliance cover, but it has a bunch of small text covering up the bottom half of it.

May have the Forza cover on the flip side of the case, but all I remember seeing is the M:UA side.

so after you'd only be making a 5 dollar profit :\

So here is my trip...

I went to Sears, bought PoTC: AWE (Wii) and Meet the Robinsons (Wii) for $10, turned around and traded them to GS for $22 and change. And then I bought Bully and All Pro Football 2k8 for $24 and change with coupon + Edge.

They didn't have much else in the used 360 games that I didn't already play, have no desire to play, or still too pricey for me to pick up at the moment.

IIRC, it's something like $6 base, and certainly enough to profit off a $5 purchase as long as you double it up for +10 or +15.

Do you guys know if this coupon is good for all EB/GS? The reason I ask is when I click on the links in the OP and in the weekly ad I got from GS I don't see any mention of this 25% coupon, is it a regional thing? Has any one tried it in the greater Boston area?

Did you check the bottom of the email that you received? It should be right below the first page of the ad (don't click the image of the ad though). I didn't even know those coupons were there for the longest time since I never scrolled down that far. :/

Only Edge works with B2G1 sales. It is considered a promotion, like the coupons are, and the computer will only accept one promotion at a time. You might find a nice employee to override it, but I wouldn't count on it.

Thank you! I went over to my local GS yesterday after calling, and I happened to find Ninja Gaiden II, which I was planning to buy anyway. The used price of the game was only 5 dollars off retail (Ugh, I hate GS), but the coupon brought it down to about 45 after tax and whatnot, and the disc and box/manual I got look to be in mint condition. Now I've got Blue Dragon, Lost Odyssey, DMC4, and Ninja Gaiden all stacked up waiting to be played. Darn you CAG :(

For those who have stores that won't stack EDGE with a coupon, calmly ask for the District Manager's phone number.

When the dopey clerks/powertripping managers ask why, tell them you would like to ask the DM why that store has decided to create it's own set of rules regarding the use of the EDGE card.

[This is even more effective if you have a cell phone to place the call in the store]

Once you have escalated this, most GS employees will capitulate
