Hahaha, unless I am grossly misinformed, you just got conned by a greasy teenager. You "need" a play and charge kit? Really? I am disappointed in you, young padawan.

I just put my reserve down and the guy told me they would honor the trade in deal if it was over when they got the next batch in. The time frame he quoted me was still before July 11th but he still made sure to point it out. This is probably YMMV but it never hurts to ask.

man, I appreciate the work that went into this thread but do we really need to fish through all this junk text, disclaimers, and 'spoilers just to find out what the current gamestop deal is?'

I've been riding a fine line on that for a while. We have a lot of users that use this thread in stores on mobile devices to pick up clearance items to take to GameStop. That is the reason for the rainbow of colors. There were some issues with text showing up on the mobile format incorrectly in some cases so I try to make those easier to read for regular site users and mobile users as well. It's been a fine line.

Also, all that other text has been collected because every thread we would get the same questions over and over. I try to keep it condensed and as easy to follow as possible. I've been debating moving everything down one post and moving the FAQ into the second post. Possibly using spoilers for the answers to again cut down on the length of the page for scrolling.

I greatly appreciate the masterful work that was put into this post. I don't know what you consider "Junk Text" but the disclaimers are very helpful and the use of the spoiler button means you don't have to skim through absolutely everything to find what you need. If those spoiler buttons weren't there I can't imagine what you'd have to say about it.

I saw something really sad a little while ago. I was third in line at gamestop. (Just trading stuff in). A group of three people was in front of me. 2 of them were doing the system trade in. They had called ahead to make sure some were available apparently. Anyway, the manager went to get the boxes and came back empty handed. He said both of them were damaged so he couldn't sell them. Now before you doubt him, this manager is a great guy. He wouldn't pull a shady move and he did the system trade for the guy in front of these people. I felt really bad for the people because they had apparently driven some distance. That said they were very polite about it.

What's the big deal? Everything's on the top of the first page. Everything else is just our meaningless replies.

Updated lists and database.

The date I keep hearing is July 9th and the deal ends July 11th. If I can't get the deal, I'll cancel my order and they lose money.

The Gamestop in Seattle I was at claimed Monday for the next shipment.

Oh the misinformed. GS really hires some dunces and they seem to get you to fall for it.

Most (if not all) GS's will be restocked at least twice next week. All of the CO area stores are saying they'll be 4-8 per shipment. (Number will be even as there's 2 consoles per shipping carton)

What system is this for?

Also, I've changed the layout of the first 5 posts. Not sure how I like it. May just be because I'm used to the old layout. Wanting some feedback.

the store I went to only had one guy working...the other guy that was scheduled to work i guess broke his arm or something that night....he just had us plug it in and run it while he would scan somebody else up...

How is it everyone elses fault they have to believe what GS employees tell them when it comes to stock issues. What? Are they supposed to just accuse them of lying right there in the store?

It is not the consumers fault that the store may not give them accurate information.
