If you wanted a part time job you should have hook up with DudeImGodly, I can't believe he got away with half the stuff he did for as long as he did.

Ha I'm good now. Before I joined this site I had decent amount of spare money, no backlog, always bought what I wanted to play on Amazon, and some, despite not much, time to play games after work.

Now I have less spare money, growing backlog, and less time to play games already.

That's about right for a CAG. Maybe a little credit at GS & BBY if you do a little bit of flipping once in a while like I do.

I had this problem tonight as well. Without being rude, I was able to convince the CS rep to try a few things since it did work for me earlier in the week. What ended up working was he had to completely logout and reboot the trade-in site. Then it came up as it should.

Went in with 3x Disney Universe(1 per system) and an Uncharted 3 ($10 from Target) for a total of $89.60. Had around $40 stuck in for a net of about $50.

Buy at 1, trade at another. You're bold. Lmao

If this is a 1 day sale, I have less than 2 hours to decide if I want to get another.

So tomorrow I'm doing a trade with a guy for my sound system for a bunch of random assorted things of his that match value. Well some of the things are a few Xbox games including black ops, some mtx vs. game, and MLB and NBA 2k12.

Well I'm planning on trading in all of them while this promo is stil going on but the problem is..the sports games are in a dual pack that apparently just came out for $69.99. I know I won't get the same amount in credit by selling it, so should I just get 2 empty 360 cases and put each disc in one? Cause MLB fetches $20 base and NBA fetches $15 base. I'd assume the combo pack would fetch like $24 base and that's it...I mean, it's not even in their system yet!

You can trade them in disc only which I assume would work unless their is something that distinguishes them as being part of a dual pack on the disc

Yes, I'd separate them into 2 cases and trade them in that way.

I also noticed that Duke Nukem Forever is a $4.80 value after 50% bonus and 10% GCU. So it's a $.20 rental(it's $4.99 at BB) minus any sales tax. Not bad.

It's 20 miles one way to another BBY and with gas being $4 bucks a gallon not even worth my time.
Thats the first time I've purchased something from BBY and flipped it back to them. They know I mainly bring in games I bought at yard sales and occasionally a few I've bought at Target.

Not making a lot, just mainly funding my gaming habit and they get their preorders

X_x I'm pretty sure I'm going to hit that limit soonish...all different titles though (didn't even get a chance to trade in the 2nd Uncharted 3 either, ahahaha)...and I only traded like a a month ago. it, I'll go out in a bang if I have too.
Jeez, why are they bothering, they have banned just about everyone and now this limit. They really are not in it to sell used games as how will they ever have stock. They originally had a plan to kill GS, I think they plan on doing it via Laughter !!

I decided to tally up my GCs to see how much credit I have, and it looks like I have ~$330 thanks to recent trade-ins.

I'm going to set aside ~$55 for picking up Max Payne 3 (I plan to use a $5 RZ cert. and I'll also be getting the $20 eGC as a result) and possibly $100 for two $50 Amazon GCs. I'll likely just hold on to the rest since you never know...

the 50 limit is really dumb and I'm sure they'll lift it as soon as they realize 1 per title per platform is good enough to curb abuse. They need to make the system reject it though instead of letting people trade in >1 and then ban them after the fact.

Well when the worker accidently added two copies of Uncharted 3 to my trade in instead of just one, the system didn't allow the trade in.
Old 04-30-2012, 03:09 PM   #2179
agreed. im seriously considering trading in my entire current gen collection for bb credit to pay for a cintiq tablet monitor for my freelance work, but with the 50/yr limit that idea is out of the question.
