Saw this when I was at the FYE in Swansea, MA yesterday:



So to those who have the CC gamer card...you can at least get this! Not bad if your FYE sells games.

Its about time. Thanks for posting.

saw the sign too. Does anyone know if an expired card would work?

$uck. I dumped mine gamer card 2 months ago when mine CC closed down :(

that is all of the FYES have not closed down around you as well...

FYE overcharges anyways

CC probably has nothing at all to do with it. This is an FYE promotion.

Damn. FYE, you overcharged me! I spent $25 on that thing!

i would like to know this too. my card expired in december.....

aww, I already threw my card away :( Good though if you can get it!

THey had a whole basket of cards behind the cs desk, but the wouldn't let me have one.

FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU....threw my gamer card away last week.

Great, I'll be waiting for a F.Y.E. to be built in my state. :/

Oh boy! Trade in a card from a dying company to a slowly dying company that overcharges on merchandise!

over charges? Honestly, ive never seen better deals than what fye has. Every game at mine is $4-5 under retail + the 10% card.

Every game at mine is _6.99

So new releases are 56.99
Wii Games 46.99
Then they go down to 36.99, 26.99 etc

Then take off the 10%. If i buy a game new there without trading anything in or no coupons its 56.99-10% + tax and comes out to 55.07. If i go to gamestop its 59.99+tax=$64. I save TEN bucks if i just go to fye. Plus they always are marking down their games faster than anyone else.

Thank goodness I am SO LAZY! I never got around to tossing my card!

maybe your FYE is better than most... all the ones in my area never markdown games, and always have overpriced junk. very rarely do they have any new releases (mostly the big name games, like madden, halo, GoW2, etc) and they are always 62.99 for months at a time.

I've had friends that worked there and they told me they aren't allowed to do markdowns unless given the go ahead by corporate. I would think that if one FYE marks 'em down, shouldn't they all?

If anything you can go by the prices at wherehouse.com for new stuff, iirc.

Usually the rebate deals do pretty well, and the trade-in credit can be better than gamestop when that brown bag promotion goes on. Plus that recent 9.99 sale with Fire Emblem wii and Battallion Wars 2, etc was pretty good.

Maromi, haha. That's cool! That store is one of the bigger FYEs in the area.

I was just about to throw mine out but my FYE doesn't have games. Maybe I'll make a thread in the contests and free stuff forum and sent it to someone who can use it.

*raises hand
