(Canada) BBV : Min. 10$ trade in credit (xbox360 games only)

[JnJosh]

Looking at this weeks flyer you get a minimum of $10 trade in credit, the catch is you have to trade in at least 10 games.

offer valid from the 6th to the 20th of January.

fine print reads " Offer valid from Jan. 6th to Jan. 20th 2009. Some exclusions may apply. See stores for details."

[chrisryans]

that's a pretty ridiculous catch

[Teddite]

Can't quite make out the fine print, but I'd assume they have restrictions on which games they'll take. If not, I can see this deal making some of those hoarders very happy.

Same thing I was thinking. In fact I've bought old sports games from BBV for 2 bucks. Something tells me they won't give me $10 per game if I'm trading those ones in.

[JnJosh]

from what i remember there are very few 360 games that were 4.99 as they've done a bit of price raising. maybe vampire rain, 2k6 sports and extreme beach volleyball might be

[poison_bret_michaels]

I just traded in 10 or so games the other day, and i was surprised at some of the games i got $10 trade in value for (i didn't know about this deal at the time) Earth Defense Force 2017 only got me $2 tho, whereas GRAW 1 got me $10


NVM just noticed it starts on the 6th. Either way, i'm still shocked GRAW 1 got me 10 bucks before the deal went into effect

[jonkaho]

time to get rid of my old crappy 360 games i don't play anymore!

hope they will take my copy of Madden 07 and All Pro Football!

Min TIV $10. :lol:

(I wouldn't be surprised)

[Azumangaman]

I didn't think I'd be able to find 10 360 games I'd want to get rid of, but I found 14 :)
I think around 8+ are sports games.

[JnJosh]

if anyone wants a list of some of the games I traded in, toss me a pm ill get back to you as soon as i can. i dont feel like throwing it up on RFD so people can go out and buy X amount of copies of games just to trade in and ruin the deal for everyone else.

cheers

[halcyon1234]

Is the "restrictions apply" the usual "one copy of each game only"?

[the47ronin]

I tried to trade in some games and was told the deal was a misprint. It was the St.Albert (Alberta) Blockbuster. Anyone in Edmonton have any luck?

[craig64]

Wtf? Is "misprint" BBV's word of the week or something? I think if it's in print they should have to authorize it, even if it was a mistake.

[JnJosh]

the deal is not a misprint ronin, some games did only trade in at 2$, those are the exclusions. The only "misprint" could be the fact that you dont have to trade in 10, you could walk in with MLB 2k6 and its worth 10$ without trading in another 9 games.

[the47ronin]

Yeah didn't think it was a misprint either. I will try again tonight.

These are the games I tried trading in (None came up as $10)

NHL 2K7
Tomb Raider Legend
Amped 3
Prey
Splinter Cell Double Agent
Smackdown vs Raw 2007
Kameo
Forza 2
Condemned
Marvel Ultimate Alliance
Saints Row
Stranglehold

[JnJosh]

for what its worth, im from ontario and it could be an ONT thing only? check for the flyer with pineapple express and appoloosa for 19.99 and 29.99 blu ray one day only prices, hitman is in the top right corner for 9.99 (blu ray)

nope its on the blockbuster.ca website apparantly :(

[poison_bret_michaels]

I asked my local Blockbuster about the trade in value for Amped 3, and they told me $10. I'm in Ontario. This was on Sunday.

[the47ronin]

Yup the flyer I got in the paper is the exact same as yours. Hitman for 9.99 as well as the $10 MIN TIV for any Blu-ray movie and Xbox 360 game. I'm assuming its a nation wide flyer then.

[Lockescythe]

so has anyone checked if everything works or if its just selective games?

Aka can GREAT CALIBUR games like the ones eb sells for 4$ work for this.

[janlazer]

I traded in Dark Messiah for 360(bought it for $5) and got $10 for it..

[gamer602]

all 360 games that resell for $14.99 qualifies for the $10TIV!

[Lockescythe]

meh this deal sucks then.

[gamer602]

dunno about you...but I got $10 for Moto GP 2006!
