Welcome to the Official CAG Amazon.com Trade-In Thread

THIS IS NOT A FLIPPING THREAD. USEFUL CREDIT TRANSFER OPPORTUNITIES WELCOME, BUT KEEP THE PROFIT MARGIN TALK / SNEAKY OR LYING SHENANIGANS OUT

Hey trade-in pals! SENDING THINGS IN DISC / CARTRIDGE ONLY / GENERIC CASE NO MANUAL / ANYTHING BUT COMPLETE COULD RESULT IN REJECTION. THERE ARE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THIS. YOU MIGHT GET ACCEPTED, YOU MIGHT NOT. NO ONE KNOWS. IF YOU CUT OUT A UPC OR DO ANYTHING TO TRICK THE FINE(?) FOLKS AT AFS EXPECT IT TO BE OPENED AND REJECTED. THERE ARE NO HARD AND FAST RULES. IF IT IS ACCEPTED, IT WILL ALMOST CERTAINLY ONLY BE CONSIDERED "ACCEPTABLE." RISK YOUR TIME AND EFFORT AT YOUR PERIL!

I'm getting an acceptance rate of about one per day; it makes me think some supervisor is standing around with a glass of absinthe next to a couple of dumptruck loads of games...while the one responsible for the glitch is made to scan each item and recite its TIV with tears in their eyes. - Indigo_Streetlight

GENERAL FAQ (Updated 12/26/2012)
Can I post a question on this thread?
Only if you can't find the answer from below. And please let me know if it needs to be added to FAQ.

Can I edit this FAQ? (updated 6/7/11)
You bet!

Since when did Amazon start doing trades?
The program began in 2009 and is handled by a third party merchant, previously known as NorAm International. Now known as AFS (Amazon Fulfillment Services).

What kind of shipping does Amazon provide us?
Free UPS ground ---- USPS is no longer available for free. There is now also an option to provide your own shipping.

Do I have to provide my own box or envelope?
Yes.

Do all my games in the same trade-in submission have to be shipped in the same box? (updated 3/9/11)
Not necessarily - people have sent in multiple boxes for the same trade-in submission successfully. It's even possible to send half at one time and the other half at the end of the valid shipping period. However, it's probably best to always ship everything at once.

Can I put separate trades in to a single box? (updated 6/7/11)
Sure, and they'll likely be accepted just fine. However, it isn't recommended since you would only have proof that you sent one of the trades (whichever mailing label you used). So it can be pretty risky.

Can I send in sealed games?
Yes. They won't reject games that still have the original shrink wrap.

Can I add Delivery Confirmation and Insurance to my shipment?
UPS Ground already provides you with tracking information, and I imagine you could get some sort of insurance added at a UPS store or location if you were so inclined.

I don't trust UPS ground. Can I pay for postage myself? What's the address?
Yes. You're more than welcome to do so. Just use the address on the amazon provided shipping label and make sure to get some sort of tracking.

When do I have to send my games once I have submitted my trade order?
You have 1 week (7 days) to send your games. There have been reports of submitting trades up to 15 - 20 days late, but that is definitely ymmv and not in the written rules. Send on time for the best chance at success!

Crap, I have one day to go before my shipment deadline, but the website states that my deadline has already passed. How do I print out a shipping label and packing slip? (Updated 9/9/13)
Load up any existing order (if you don't have any, check your browser's history or just submit a new one to use the link), and substitute the transaction ID for the trade-in order you need at the end of the URL.

Some step by step directions:
1. Go to your trade-in page on Amazon and find the Trade-In ID of the transaction:

Trade-In Placed:

August 24, 2013

  • Total Amount Submitted: $35.00
  • Amount Paid: $0.00
2. Copy the entire Trade-In ID (i.e. TRN-1234567-1234567) to your clipboard by highlighting it and hitting Ctrl+C or right click -> copy with your mouse

3. Paste the Trade-In ID to the end of this link:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/tradein/multicondition-your-account/print-label/ref=trdrt_ya_yaprnt?ie=UTF8&orderID=

So it should look like this:

https://www.amazon.com/gp/tradein/multicondition-your-account/print-label/ref=trdrt_ya_yaprnt?ie=UTF8&orderID=TRN-1234567-1234567

The Print Shipping Label screen for that trade should now come up.

How long does the whole trade-in process usually take?
From the time you send in your games, it may take up to 14 business days for the package to arrive. Most people usually receive their credit (Amazon GiftCard) in 3 to 5 business days, however.

How long does the "processing" status usually take? (Updated 10/11/12)
Usually a day or two with little delay at all. It may take multiple days or even weeks if it's an usual item/hardware.

My games were received on Friday (based on Delivery Confirmation), will I have to wait until Monday to receive credit?
People have received credit on a Saturday.

I do not have the manual, cover art, or original case for a game I want to trade in. Will they accept it? (updated 6/9/11)
While the details specifically state that original packaging is necessary, people have reported in the past that their trades were accepted despite missing some of these. This is extremely YMMV, however since some were also rejected by missing manual or cover art. On the other hand, older gen games; such as SNES, N64, and GB cartridges, normally get accepted without the original box and manual, but still YMMV.

It should be noted that with the new condition requirements (see later in the FAQ), you may be able to send an item in missing some or all of the required items (manual / cover art / case) and still have it accepted in "Acceptable" condition.

I do not have the manual, accessories, original box, original included game, etc for a console or accessory I want to trade in. Will they accept it? (updated 3/9/11)
The current wisdom is "probably not" - it's pretty YMMV but AFS seems stricter than they should be on this. Your chances seem to be better for them accepting a console or accessory without the box / manual / etc if it's older generation or rare. You're more than welcome to give it a shot though if you're feeling lucky - just pack it well and include as much as you can! Don't expect greater than 'acceptable' condition though.

My game is really beat up, what are the chances they’ll accept it?
This is YMMV. Some people have reported in the past that they sent in games in bad shape that were still accepted. Your best bet is still to trade in games in mint condition. Minor scratches are expected as these are used games.

My game came with DLC codes and I used them. Will my game be accepted? (Updated 12/28/11)
It is expected that included DLC codes have already been redeemed, so you should be fine. It is a kindness however if you have no use for it to not redeem it and let the next lucky soul who buys it from awd or wherever have a crack at it. Up to you!

My cover art (PLATINUM HITS) differs from the pic on amazon, will my trade be accepted?
It all depends on the UPC so just turn your game around, type in the UPC into the amazon search box. If the game comes up, then it's accepted regardless of cover art. Click on that result to submit your trade.

I have a game from a limited edition bundle, will they accept it?
If the game’s cover art has a UPC barcode, they will most likely accept it. If your game's cover states "Not for Resale" and does not have a UPC barcode, the game will most likely get rejected. Some people have had their games accepted in the past, but this is very YMMV.

The UPC barcode is not intact on my game's cover art, will that be accepted? (updated 3/9/11)
This is YMMV, but probably not. The UPC is all powerful within the walls of AFS..

I sent in my games, all of which were in pristine condition with the original packaging, but they said that one game is damaged and is now being returned.
Always pack your games well. Put a lot of newspaper around your games in the box to secure them and to prevent any damages from haphazard box cutting. People in the past have requested their entire trade-in order if it’s obvious the damage wasn’t their fault, and Amazon ended up accepting the rejected game. This is YMMV as well.

Can I trade in multiple copies of the same game?
Yes. Once you click “Trade in” for a particular game, you may change the quantities. Once you submit, you can no longer change quantities on that trade-in batch.

How many multiple copies of the same game can I trade-in (updated 1/11/11)?
Maximum of 2 copies within 3 a month period.

I locked in X copies of a game but I now only have Y available to send. Can I just send in Y without being penalized? (updated 3/9/11)
Yes, you can always just send in a portion of your trade-in order and they'll just credit you for whatever they receive. However, the quantities you submitted for will stay locked in that instance (I think) so if you, for example, submitted for 2 copies and only sent 1, you may not be able to trade any more copies of that game for 3 months (see previous question).

Will the Trade-in of the Day TIV stay for 24 hours?
It's been reported that there is a limit (maximum # of copies) that will get the promoted TIV so lock yours.

So if I find a good flip, I can just send 2 copies of that game and not worry about Amazon accusing me of stolen merchandise?
Technically yes, but do keep in mind that other CAGs might want to participate in the current deal, and trading in a large number of the same game will definitely lower the TIV of said game. Let’s be nice to other people. This is probably moot for most folks now with the per account / address trade-in limit.

Wow, these TIVs suck (updated 3/9/11)!
Really? Hrm. While that may be true, they're often better than other comparable places. Your options of what to do with your used games are greater now than they've ever been, so feel free to shop your trades around or just sell them off on glyde/ebay/whatever. Also, not a question.

What the fuck? The TIV of a game I just bought for this deal tanked! What do I do?
The TIVs on Amazon fluctuate depending on the number of trades that are submitted, and we really can’t do anything about it. The best course of action for trading in games is to lock in your trade if you already have the games or are absolutely sure that you can obtain them. You can always cancel the trade submission if you end up not finding the games.
LOCK = SUBMIT YOUR TRADE, Don't just put it in the cart.

Can I edit a submitted trade?
Nope - once upon a time you could modify trade in quantities of submitted trades, but that ability has been removed.

Can I use my credit on items that are not video game-related?
Yes. This is the other perk for trading in games at Amazon since you're not limited to just video games.

Can I use my credit on items sold by third-party merchants on Amazon?
According to the fine print of the Amazon gift card use, some merchants are excluded. Your best bet is to try it on the checkout page of your order.

Strategy guides? I can trade in game/strategy guides? Whaaaaa?
Go to the Textbook Buyback section (http://www.amazon.com/Textbooks-Trad...ode=2205237011[/URL]). You can either search on the title of a strategy guide you have to see if they'll accept it, or search for guides. The two best search strings to start with are 'prima guides' and 'bradygames'. Might try 'doublejump' if you want to trade in some of those. (Thanks eugaet)

I locked in some hilariously overvalued trade for some weird rare game/accessory/etc that I can pick up for cheap cheap cheap. They didn't accept it. What should I do? (updated 3/9/11)
The truth is that AFS can reject things for any reason they see fit. While some people have managed to get silly things like a $200 credit for some cheerleading game (or for a PS2 - just ask io!), it's sooooooo YMMV that often it's not worth the effort. EXPECT REJECTION ON THINGS THAT ARE CLEARLY MISVALUED. That said, as long as you're willing to risk it, go for it!

What's all this item condition nonsense? And how can I get screwed over by it? (updated 6/9/11)
We're still kinda sussing out the details surrounding the new item condition portion of Amazon Trade-Ins, but it looks like there's a couple things to consider:
Good Condition eligibility (games):
- The video game, original manufacturer packaging and all original elements are included, but shows wear from normal use
- Game still plays perfectly
- Disc may have light scratches and other elements may have minor damage
- Item may have been personalized (marked or identified)

Acceptable eligibility (games):
- Game still plays perfectly
- Item may have been personalized (marked or identified)
- Item may be missing or have irreparable damage to one or all of the following: case, manual, artwork, bundled accessories, UPC

Note that a game will almost certainly not be accepted if it meets any of these conditions:
- Game does not play perfectly
- Disc is cracked
- Marked Not for Resale (or is otherwise marked not for sale)

Consoles/accessories have some slightly different criteria, but the idea is the same.

Did it seriously just ask me if I wanted my game / other item returned if they refuse to give me credit for it? (updated 6/9/11)
Yes, that just happened.

Unless you're purposefully sending them things you deem to be trash, please remember to choose the option that has them return your item to you during the checkout phase.

Who is AFS? (updated 9/14/13)
Amazon Fulfillment Services (previously known as NorAm). Dunno if they changed names, were bought up by Amazon, or what. Not too interested anyhow.

Why does my package jump back and forth between states? (updated 9/14/13)
Look at a map of the involved cities and it'll make sense. Something to do with UPS hubs and proximity to the state border/cities.

Post away!

My recent trade-ins went surprisingly well. I was nervous because the phone/chat reps basically gave me the worst case scenario.

I sent three different trade-ins in one box and was legitimately nervous I'd just get robbed of two games because they told me that if I did that, they weren't responsible for any extra items. They all went through.  I sent in two XBox 360 consoles the same day as the games and got paid for both of them a day later. Those I was almost sure they'd get denied because they technically were the right console but not from the correct bundle.

I luckily haven't had any bad experiences with them but I also haven't gotten real ratchet either. I would never send a console in without cables unless I had nothing to lose. Just the turnaround time in itself was a nail-biter for me.

Pass. Since I got a $6.67 from Gamestop. Two copies were $10 each and there was a B2G1, so $6.67 each. The third game was something else. $13.32 into $46 ftw!

You actually found two copies with the "DLC Collection 1" banner in the corner? I keep looking whenever I stop at a GS, but I haven't had any success.

No. I just used regular copies and cut off the UPC. Got a lot of rejections, but they finally took it.

 
Anyone own Battlefield 4 on Xbox one?  I'm wondering after all the negative reviews if it's even worth paying the $15 to upgrade the game from 360 to one.

The game looks great and the frame rate is solid from my experience; however, the online play is kind of glitchy and I frequently lag out and have even my X1 freeze a few times during online play. When the online works it is pretty fun, but like I said it kinda glitchy. I really wouldn't recommend upgrading unless you have a few friends who have an X1 and are willing to play online with you.

WHEN the game works and isn't lagging or freezing it's great..But half the time the game never works but I'm sure it'll be fixed....hopefully...

I actually took a chance with this last week. I bought two copies from Amazon and both were new and with the banner. The trade is currently processing.

For the Mario Kart bundle?

The game makes it a bundle. It's just a Wii without it. I might be fine. I sent a complete game with the console and remote and cords.
Click to expand...
Yes, but

1) I sent it in at Acceptable (meaning bundled items do not need to be included, depends on grader)

2) They rejected it for the reason that "The Console Does Not Work."

 
They can reject it for any reason, but you killed your own chances by trying to scam them with a regular old Wii. They probably would have been more lenient if you at least included the game. They weren't looking for the plastic wheel.

It was just sitting around anyways. Didn't want to go out and grab the game before the deadline came. Sent it in for the hell of it. In no way is this scamming at all. I didn't even submit it at Like New and Do Not Return. I specifically picked Acceptable condition.

  • "The item may be missing or have irreparable damage to one or all of the following: original packaging, controller(s), bundled game(s), cables, user manual"
 
Yeah because Amazon only has one listing for these consoles... They have consoles by themself so dont act suprised when they deny a BUNDLE for missing parts.
 
I traded in my kinect w/ adventure game and it was rejected for not having the power cable. I sent it in as acceptable since I couldn't find the power cable or box. I contacted amazon support about them revising what constitutes "acceptable" if they are going to reject something due to the lack of a power cable. They credited my account with the trade value since their support is awesome, but they really should update their terms if they plan on being more stringent on their definition of "acceptable".

The kinect I had, the power cord was already connected to it. I think he is talking about the ac adapter which is so you can use for og consoles

So with this $10 credit towards trade-ins, what are people going to use it on? I wonder if my trade-ins that are currently "processing" will get this credit. If so and Tearaway is still priced at $20, I will use it on that. It seems to be the only game that will have a great price for me.

I got the same thing toaday. Oh well. I will have to keep an eye out for another good white wii trade in.

With all the black wiis around I was thinking about picking up a cheap one to send in, but after having this rejected for no reason I'm not sure if it is worth the hassle since I'll probably be getting it back in the mail.

White Wii was sent in with a/v, controller and power cable. Works fine. It was the Wii I've been using for years and just haven't used since I got a WiiU

Haha, you guys are hilarious. I didnt act surprised at all. If I were Amazon, I'd do the same, but when they write out that Acceptable condition can be missing bundled games, then reject the console on a bogus reason, I fail to see the part where I'm scamming them and where I'm wrong about this.

Just wait for the next one to pop up. It seems they pop up pretty frequently. I do think it is funny that they have to slap somesort of reason on there, so they just go with not working.

 
I sent in assassins creed 360 and they got it Friday. I just got credit today. .. Wednesday. But i am getting $25 off the xbox one version plus the trade in credit of 14.20 still makes the game $20. Isn't it supposed to be $9.99? Anyone having this issue and what are you doing to fix it?

I have no problems taking back the Wii and throwing it back in the closet. It'll just sit there until another value does pop up.

Think it depends on the version since when AWD had those $40 systems with the Kinect neither came with a power cord for it and they worked fine.

You only got $14.20 for your assassins creed?! No idea how you would fix that; I got $28 for mine, making it less than $10 for me
 
Ugh.   They got my Wii the 13th according to tracking but it's still "Not Received" per the status report on my trade in account.  Hasn't even transitioned into interminable "Processing" status. At what point should I assume the cockups lost the thing and demand full credit from CS?

If you contact customer support they should be able to credit your account. Same thing happened to me I just sent the rep a link to the page that shows all the information about the trade up program. The page says that every game is guaranteed a $25 base and a $25 promotion.

Thanks that is exactly what they did. Took thirty minutes doing a chat with them but they gave me the difference back making it $9.99.

Mine spent 8 days as not received. It then instantly changed to unaceptable. You might just want to contact them if it is getting close to the cancellation deadline

 
Amazon just received both of my 360 wireless mics (one sent with prepaid UPS label, the other via USPS Priority Mail that I paid $5.75 for) .. guess I could have just sent both with the prepaid label. Last time I sent in something via prepaid label, it took a week to get there. I figured with Christmas around the corner, I didn't want to risk both of them being received after the deadline.... bleh. Oh well.

Now the wait to get processed...

Edit: Holy fuck, that was fast! One of them is already processed, and the gift card has been deposited. Can't say I expected this.

Edit #2: Apparently the one I sent via USPS has been processed. The UPS one is still "Not Yet Received/In Transit", yet marked as delivered under the tracking information.

Sent in a Rock Band 3 Keyboard bundle as "Good" and took the instant credit option... I know, I know. BUT! They bumped it up to "Like New" and deposited the difference. Was expecting the worst case scenario but I'm very happy with this.

Thank you based Amazon.

Ugh. I hope my 6 days of not received isn't a sign that an "unacceptable" is coming. I sent in everything except the packaging and Mario kart disc. All the cords and the Wii wheel. I SHOULD get acceptable. Anything else is them screwing with me because they don't want to pay the inflated TIV.

Did you send in just black ones? Or a white one too?

I sent two black mics.

1x USPS shipment delivered at 9:41am, processed at 12:43pm.

1x UPS shipment delivered at 11:30am, still marked "Not Yet Received/In Transit".

Starting to think paying the extra $5.75 for USPS is the way to go. ;)
