Yeah. I renewed on Fri 3/23. My 250 bonus point hit the next day and my B2G1 coupon was there this morning. GS also game me another GI mag. Didn't know the Ass. Creed III issue had 2 different covers. Good to have one without my info on the back and a big expiration sticker on the front.

...but let's get back to talkin' BB business.

Used the B2G1 coupon and my Akrham City credit at Gamestop to get a couple MW3s to flip. Basically turned like $20 real money into $120 BB credit... my God.

My mega flip is completed. Now the preying begins :(

why didn't you just split the trade into two separate trades then?

Because then he couldn't brag about it on CAG.

what did this "mega flip" consist of, anyway?

Looks like time to go through all the free games I got from best buy last year and don't play anymore and get some creds.

MK is $24 after bonus. Going to wait for the $34.99 preowned MK:Komplete and hopefully use a $10 off coupon. Free upgrade!!!

Interestingly enough MK:Komplete is not listed for TIV.

If he split them up he wouldn't be able to use his super duper awesome "mega flip" term on CAG.

So for MW3, can i flip 3 copies for PS3 and 3 copies for 360 or can i only flip in 3 copies of MW3 regardless of their platform? Hope its clear.

Flipped a copy of Dead Island

cost $5.93 and left the store and walked right back in and traded it in for $25.60


Got one of those Powerup Rewards cards at Gamestop and then got a B2G1 deal on MW3 (the coupon doesn't come for 48 hours but I was told I can re-ring out with the coupon since I bought the PUR card) and got $40 trade-in at Best Buy for the first 2 copies.

I didnt' want to trade them all 3 in at one place, so I went to another best buy and of course their trade-in machine was not working.

I believe the established rule is 3 copies per platform, so you could go with the former option, but I highly suggest you don't trade all of them on the same day at the same BBY, lest you run the risk of being banned.

So you do not need to have the physical copies of the games when you go back to get the price adjusted? I also signed up for the pur card today and assumed I would still need the games to get the price adjustment when I got the coupon.

The title is irritating me. Let's start a new thread or wiki this one.

They shoot you on sight if you come within 100 feet of a Best Buy.

Nope. All you need is the receipt.

You can't trade in any more games at BB.

Straight edge is so stressed over his mega flip I hope he doesn't turn into Chris Benoit.
