I went to Starbucks this morning and I saw a big sign on the front window of Blockbuster that said "8 dollars trade in value on all DVD's". This is a pretty good value unless you are looking to rid boxed sets or those pricey rare editions. However, I passed 3 blockbusters on the way to school, and only 2 had the special. Not sure if it is coincidence, but the ones that have the special do not have a Gamerush.

old news

...if only i had waited 2 weeks...argh...

thanks for the heads up

Well today is 10/5, and it was the first time I saw the sign for this special. For the uninformed like myself, this is a wonderful thing.

no prob, just a heads up

man if people knew about this 10 days ago the overstock movies would of flew 10x faster (buy them for 2 sell them for 8 ) ours is having it here what is kind of werid since if you want to double your money you can. Pawn shops sells 5 DVDS for 20 Take the to Blockbuster sell them for 40 ez 20 bucks. Bad thing is if Block dont want the movies your out 20 bucks.

Last time I was in there, they sold DVD movies at this dollar store by my house. Crappy titles like "Laser Mission" and some old, old Westerns. They weren't in the DVD cases, just some cardboard sleeve with the picture and info on them. I didn't look too closely, wonder if they were boots?

they are real Dvds but real crappy dvds. Walmart has them now too.. I doubt Blockbuster will take them since the things they take "have to be something they have in the store: that is what they said on phone

Yeah, I have a large DVD collection and I was thinking about trading some in...however, you only get STORE CREDIT or they will just credit your account. And the DVD's at BlockBuster always seem to be WAY overpriced. So, it's good if you have some cheap DVD's lying around....however, you still have to buy something there.

I got 48 dollars off some DVD's today. I asked them to place it on a giftcard, and I took it to a Gamerush and got the Mortal kobat Kollectors edition for dirt cheap.

Oh, I was not sure if you could use the BB GiftCard at GameRush...I would assume yes since both are under the same roof.

Maybe I will trade in a few DVD's. Like the House PArty Trilogy I picked up dirt cheap a while back

When I was trading in dvds yesterday, They game me a new bb value card instead of just using my gamerush value card...I still think you can use them interchangably though

Thanks....now what to get rid of. I actually just filled up my rack of over 300 DVD's.....so I should either
A.) Buy a new rack
B.) weed out the not-so-good titles

weed out the bad titles, and get stuff you can actually use.

good advice, it will free up space and you will get junk you actually want.

i just called my BB about this and they state that none of the stores in my county are doing this deal

I suppose there's not a list of the stores running this promo is there?

What state do you guys live in before I waste my time going by Blockbuster.

Just heard this deal on the radio here in California (LA County) so I'm pretty sure it's a go here.
