Tried using the coupon for Gears and like others, it did not work. I should have double checked it before but didn't (since normally it runs smoothly).

Sad thing is the normal 30% pre-order bonus didn't work either so I ended up with the 3/$10 promo..

Now I have to call GS CS tomorrow and hopefully they can figure out something to get this figured out.. the manager was really cool about helping me out it was just too close to closing to get any progress.

Yeah, I know but I was too lazy.

If the games were under a certain amount it's going to automatically give you the better promo which is the 3 for $10. I think all of your games would need to be above $11 or so for the 30% promo to be better. It's been somewhere around that mark in the past when promos like this overlap.

Yeah if the average per game trade in is above $11.11 then the 30% gives more credit. This also assumes you are trading in multiples of 3.

Does anyone know if Gamestop takes the Xbox 360 Audio Adapters for trade in? This is the adapter for the bigger size systems that lets you plug in an optical cable or RCA audio cables while an HDMI cable is plugged in at the same time. I would call, but it is too late now. I will call tomorrow though, but if anyone already knows, it would be appreciated. Thanks.

Portal 2



Darksiders 2
XCOM

Wii U:

Darksiders 2

For those of you who are flipping Saints Row The Third, you might wanna keep the online pass. The code also entitles you to a digital copy of Saints Row 2.

Hey guys, if I preorder a game for the 30% bonus and then cancel the preorder a few days later, do I get to keep the 30% bonus on the gift card?

Yes.

So I went today and told them about how I traded a game in on Friday and didn't get the 30% extra credit. They looked at my receipt and were surprised, saying the computer should've caught that. Instead of giving me $3 credit, they just took $3 off of my Gears of War: Judgment purchase.

If anyone had an experience like me, you're supposed to get the 30% bonus for trade-in games that contribute to the pre-order that has the offer.

I hate to ask this, but could this maybe be added to the first post, or one of the initial posts, since I wasn't aware of this.
