Me, from 7/23:

WHAT IS THIS? Replacement electric toothbrush heads, crest white stripes, replacement gillette razor blades, baby wipes and the coup de grace, FERTILITY MONITOR TEST STICKS

Ok so either A: We're all trying to get the same game(s) into our goldbox and this crap is somehow related or B: A few of these items that are generating are coming up for no reason at all, and this is some kind of advertisement?

Doesn't appear to be a problem.

wait so cant I just ship all 3 to me. Who says I cant?

On a side note, my gold box is getting slightly more gamey recently. i got ea sports active and ghostbusters bluray this time.

welcome to the club :P

If you guys really want to manipulate the goldbox. Just fix you recomendations so that only game stuff, or what you want is in there. Thats what I did and now I'm actually getting video game related things. Albeit Wii and DS. I'm hoping for a TE stick

Tried it. Tried it for the past week, still no go. I've looked at numerous sites detailing how to get items into your goldbox just to make sure I'm not overlooking something.

Trade-In of the Day:
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance - $8.00

Is this a joke?

Maybe we're not talking about the same things. I was referring to the 50% off code. Since it was one per household. I was confirming that I had the trade in and codes sent to three different accounts with different billing addresses, but then had all three shipped to my current address when I ordered something....

ok thats what I meant. I sent 3 trade ins on 3 different accounts with 3 different adresses. So you just mailed them to yourself?

Yes, when checking out under each account, you can change the shipping address. The shipping and billing address do not have to match, otherwise you could never send gifts to anyone else.

I haven't received anything yet, since two of the three are pre-orders, but the orders were accepted and I see no reason why they should have a problem with it.

Wow, that really is surprising. I mean, does anyone sell used GBC games with boxes? I have a feeling you got someone processing your games who isn't very knowledgeable about them and went "by the book" instead of using common sense.

I posted this before, but just to see what would happen I submitted a second trade under my wife's account - clearly with the same address. They sent her a 50% off code too - so, so much for the 1 per household limit. I wonder if anyone tried 2 $50 submissions on the same account - I bet they would have gotten 2 codes also! My question is do you even have to use the code on that account. Can't you use it on the same account (for different orders, obviously)? The thing is I have most of my credit on my account. I'd prefer just to use it there and let her use the trade credit to buy other stuff.

DAMMIT! I have nice stuff in my Gold Box like DDS 1 and Devil Survivor. But the ing ECA won't let me check out and purchase my membership and I don't want to buy them without the code. I can verify my email and get the code in my "cart" but there's no option to checkout or purchase. And apparently it has been this way for a few days with no indication of any problems posted on the site. That's just stupid.

Edit - Ooh, now it appears to be working, sweet! Ordered DDS 1 for $25.49 in Amazon trade-in credit . Devli Survivor would be the same price but I think I'll wait to get that used at GS later (and cheaper, hopefully).

Just got my Amazon 50% off coupon code (was credited on Monday).

Time to sign up for ECA and get my Prestige edition! Although I really do want DJ hero...

I also had this thought and tested it out a few days ago. The 50% code from my extra account seems to work fine when i am logged in to my original account. I didn't go through with the purchase, but it does appear that the 50% codes are not tied to the account that earned it.

I still have my college email. I'm strongly considering ECA but still kinda weary after reading about the technical issues. I also don't like spending $15 outta my pocket for it. Wish there was a way to use credit from flips

Funny about the college account. I thought I was out of luck on that as it has been a long time since I was in grad school. But then I remembered I am still getting my old .edu email forwarded to my current email account. I signed up with that and only had to pay the $15 which was nice. I've already saved $3 on one order and for sure will make up for it with my other 50% coupon (another reason why I want to use it on the same account - though, actually, my ECA and Amazon emails don't match anyway - I hope that won't be a problem later), not to mention the $30 coupons once they come in.

While I was reluctant to buy it before this Amazon trade-in thing happened (since, at most, I have ordered 3 or 4 cheap games a year from there in the past), it is a no-brainer with all this trade-in credit and promo codes that have to be used at Amazon anyway.

I got two 50 percent off code. One on my account and one on my girls account. Not sure what to get.I already have a TE for the 360 and a HRAP 2:SA for the PS2/PS3. I'm thinking of getting the
Tekken 6 bundle for either system, the HRAP:SE, HRAP:SA, modern warfare prestige edition, and i dont know what else to get. I have till the 31st to decide. Im hoping the fix the G25 glitch so I can get wheel for gran turismo.

for the 50% coupon when must it be used? Mine should be emailed today or tomorrow... Also what items would be worth getting, only thing I can think of is Cod hardend or prestige (sell the nvgs). Not sure what else to use it on,

2 accepted, one to go. Hope my coupon comes soon, want my TE stick soon.

Why, when I have a recommended list of all PS3 and PC games, do I get DS and Wii garbage in my gold box?! GDI. . .

I don't know if this is "news" or not, because I'm too lazy to flip back through previous pages, but I received two $30 off codes overnight. They came in the same email and the codes were just separated by a comma.

So, you can definitely get a $30 off code for each trade-in that meets or exceeds $60.

EDIT: To clarify, it looked like this:

Promotional code: "XXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX,XXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXX"

Unfortunately, I just tried using the first code (the one listed before the comma) and it didn't work. However, the second one did. All the instances of the word "code" in the email are singular, not plural... so maybe that's just some sort of glitch that inserted another, already used code in there.... don't know.

In any event, I'm going to wait til tomorrow and see if I receive another code via email (my trades were sent in one day apart) before checking into it.

Anybody get an email like that with two codes separated by a comma?
