*Receive 25% trade in Credit when you trade 3 or more different PS2, XBOX, GC, PSP, DS, GBA games NO EXCLUSIONS, limit 9 games per customer

25% of what...their current retail price? like a $20 game will fetch $5 trade in?

i've never traded at eb, but i've got some older cube games to get rid of and was thinking about going this route.

thanks.

also can you trade games in, get credit and use it online or does all of the transaction have to take place in the store.

25% of what they feel they want to give you

No, they mean 25% bonus trade in credit. Say if one of your games is worth $4, then you would get $1 extra on top of that trade in credit.

EBgames can't force him to trade his stuff at their store. The trade goes both ways, as in both sides agree on the trade before doing the trade.

If a game usually trades at $1.00, they'll giveyou extra $0.25 for a total of $1.25.

Gamestop's base trade-in prices seem to be a lot better, and they will match EB Games trade-in promotions. (They matched the $5 extra for 5 or more games when I was trading in games for my Micro.)

That's actually only a better deal than the $5 deal when you're trading in brand new games.

But, yeah, I haven't been keeping up, but if that Trade in 5, and get $5 extra each is still going, then it's a much better deal in most cases.
