What you can't use someone else's coupon that they don't use?

 

[reaperztoll]

I just bought a $200 eBay and a $50 eshop card. When he scanned my power up rewards he looked at it odd because his screen froze. It finally unfroze but he thought it was strange.

That actually happened yesterday when I bought mine. Took probably 10 or 15 seconds after I swiped my PUR card to finish the transaction.

 

[lakers714]

It seems like every GameStop I've been to this week has had all the eBay cards pulled out

Well you can but they eventually ban peoples PUR for using other people's PUR account coupons. PUR coupon codes are unique and tied to a specific account.

My main GameStop has finally stopped allowing trade credit to be used on eBay and whatnot. Sad day, I'll have to go to a different store now

Was it your normal GS employee that turned you down? I got $200 in eBay gift cards earlier today with no problem.

 

[Dmanthegamer]

Does the 20% extra credit for Lego force awakens apply to consoles?

 

[StainedCarpet]

POINTS BONUS TIME
Get 2X More for a limited time!


So power up rewards surveys etc are giving double points.

This definitely helped out today. I was short 160 or so points of 11,500 the amount needed to get a 10 dollar voucher for playstation network. Did a couple surveys, watched a few videos and bam! 10 dollar voucher. Gotta get in on that sweet PSN sale.

Save it, storewide b2g1 starts friday for pur pro and saturday for everyone else. Ends sunday night.

 

[Bobby's World]

no

Good thing that you replied. Dmanthegamer was going to make a post every minute until he received an answer

Yeah take this advice and actually save it, outside of the GS app. They yanked the 20% off coupon from the a/c previously, mine & lots of others here; and so there is nothing stopping them from yanking any other coupons. ing thieves.

 

[JustCuriousity]

I haven't got one and I am too. Could just be slow, I keep checking. I did get the $20 off MLB 16 PS4 coupon.

I think it might be selected. I received the MLB one, which is amazing if it works on preowned, but not the Xbox one.

Thieves? That was a coupon they gave out for free. And at the bottom of every coupon it states they can terminate it at any time......

 

[Nick51705]

The manager has spread the word. 2 different employees and the manager have shot me down. Oh well, I can do it at other stores but this was my convenient location.

it amazes me people defend GS so passionately

 

[HyperG]

No one is defending them but if they put terms on the coupon that states they can take it away when they want, they will do it.

 

[YawnAmuroYawn]

It's still bs.

 

[dav2sil]

Not defending. But calling them theives is a little much. They took a coupon away that in the terms say they can take it away at any time, get over it.

 

[Bobby's World]

Arsonists calling out thieves lol

 

[dgwillia006]

Didn't think Gamestop watched the prices of digital sales as well. 3 of the Vita games I was gonna trade in from this weeks PSN sale tanked over the past day.

 

[HyperG]

Managed to get an eBay card like a noob... but I got it while I had a chance.

 

[HyperG]

We need a CAG sim.

 

[Kyle1022]

Hopefully the B2G1 on preowned games this weekend makes some decent GS to BB credit movers... With Amazon and eBay cards disappearing, gotta get out while I still can

 

[bostonfrontier]

Anyone know if the b2g1 will be online as well?

 

[paulwekiva]

IGN (not my favorite site by any means) reports that the third wave of PSVR will go on sale on Gamestop's website tomorrow at 7 a.m. Pacific (10 a.m. Eastern).  It only states Gamestop and it only states the website.  I tried calling a local GS and the guy looked through emails and said he didn't currently have any notifications for pre-sales in store.  

I am guessing it has to be paid in full online (versus $100 deposit in store).  I know they won't charge you until later but I'm still not stoked about that.  I am guessing whatever handling fees, etc. will keep me away from it, but I'm sure this could help someone out!

 

[Hereck82]

Does it work on consoles too? The 2 for 1 offer.

It has in the past, but we won't know until it goes live.

Awesome thanks for the reply

 

[YellowGameboyColor]

I honestly don't get why it's hard for some of you to get GCs with credit...just give them the card, tell them how much you want and swipe your damn card!!! And if they're eyeballing you just start talking to them and swipe while winking and hushing at the Chilean miners in the store

Order for in store pick up and you don't have to pay anything until you pick it up.

Do games bought right after release at GameStop usually still have the preorder bonuses? Looking to grab Lego TFA.

FYI if you dump all the bonuses on eBay you can basically get the game and season pass for about $20-30 after Prime discount.

In the past, yes. Now days, mostly no. The preorder bonuses tend to come on the receipt now more than in the actual game case.

This. I picked up 7 Days the day it came out (didn't preorder) and didn't get the bonus codes.

 

[Djchanclaface]

Dang. Those jabba codes are going for a nice price. I'll remember that for next time. Thanks.

 

[Viper X]

Are they just giving the $50 off Xbox One coupons to random members? I still haven't got one and I'm a pro member.

I have 3 pro accounts. None got the $50 off.

I haven't got one and I am too. Could just be slow, I keep checking. I did get the $20 off MLB 16 PS4 coupon.

Not sure if this is the case with everyone else but, I had to click on the view all button on the active offers to see my $50 coupon.

 

[tidwell]

So when I picked up the Deluxe Edition instead, did that negate my preorder? I didn't get a code for Jabba's Palace (dude said it would be inside)

 

[Nick51705]

PlayStation VR is up at GameStop again but not the bundle

 

[Djchanclaface]

...and it's not inside? Empire character pack was in the case but it's not retailer exclusive.

 

[HyperG]

Usually I am the one that points that out, so that isn't the case this time. Not a big deal on my end.

 

[tidwell]

Nope. Just the Empire Strike Back characters and the Season Pass. Unless, the Jabba thinger is part of the Season Pass?

Jabba is a gamestop exclusive. If it's not on the receipt, it my be emailed to you. Did he just cancel your pre order completely? Then you bought the other version? If so you won't be getting the dlc.

They pulled them from all the GSs in two of the three districts in which I travel. Luckily the third district still has loads of eBays.

Am I better off holding onto my trades for a better deal coming like the possible playcation? 

Im sitting on a 360 S power adapter as well does anyone think itll hold the 30+ value?

They can print additional codes. When I picked up my Bravely Second CE, I wanted to do a different form of payment. He decided to cancel my preorder to refund what I had existing and so I didn't get the code. Went back and explained and he just printed a code.

Explain your situation with receipts and I bet they can generate one for you.

 

[ActuaIIyMason]

did anyone get a 50% extra trade in coupon in their offers? is that a one use code?

Did not receive anything.

Thanks for the heads up. I just e-mailed Customer Service...but that should be easier. The clerk is a good dude and should take care of it then.
