***Nintendo Switch Trade: Offer valid 3/20/17-3/26/17. Valid toward a new Nintendo Switch system.

Has this been confirmed? I wouldn't mind trading in my ps4 since I already upgraded to the PS4 Pro.

Possible stack with the PUR +$25 trade-in?

I smell deceptive GS marketing.....

 

[charlie3000k]

When I traded in today for the $25 bonus to upgrade hardware the promo didn't trigger and had to be manually added.

 

[RoxyWahine03]

Double this. Any employees on here know what's going on??

I'm sitting on some points, but not enough to get that lifesize Alien egg I want!

I just checked the catalog...most of the things I want are gone....ugh... Just want to know if the change is for the better or worse so should we save points or not if the rewards will be better or worse....

Guys, Gamestop currently has a "buy four preowned games ($4.99 or below) for $10" which apply to PS3, XB360 and PS4 games so you can mix and match, not sure if it applies to any other system but its a great way to get several games for damn cheap and if you can get ahold of a battlefield bad company 2 (PS3) you could boomerang it in as well to drop your cost further, have at it!

In addition, gamestop claims it to be a blowout but I believe all their rewards cost the same amount of points as far as I'm aware...

Shouldn't a blowout imply a drop in price for points? D;

Any four games on those systems? Interesting...

EDIT: Maybe not that interesting after looking online. :???:

Is this one of the in store flyer things?

$4.99 or less

Indeed my friend, just came back from a run

i just glanced through and i dont see any rewards that cost less than they did 2 weeks ago, i got my daughter the pokemon socks and wallet and they are the same cost now. i bought the monkey bomb thing and it was 8500 then like it is now. i guess people are just grabbing stuff before its gone? as for better or worse, i cant name a single change to a reward program lately that ended up being better than it was before.

 

[Vigilante]

$4.99 or less

Well, yeah, I got that part.

Indeed my friend, just came back from a run

Thanks for the confirmation.

 

[ChronoSlayer]

Well, I went to 2 different stores today so I guess it should be all stores.

 

[Sunrisecityrider]

Any suggestions on the 4 for $10?

3 x $4.99 games of your choice and Bad Company 2 (PS3; to boomerang) to get the most out of it.

Basically 3 games for $7ish

I'm thinking of buying a few sets of games and then trading them in 1 by 1 plus the $5 bonus while chipping away at a preorder of something with a bonus.

I also considered this but YMMV since a minimum of $5 TIV is required to use the coupon

Still think it is funny they have not fixed this yet.

The POS will add it to any TIV under $5 as well. Just up to the employee to follow the rules. Or you could try sneaking the generic one I made or just the barcode.

I just use the barcode. But I would be like, "I want to trade this and put $5 on a preorder of MLB The Show17. Then do that everyday with $1 added to my preorder. Then just wait until the Scorpio is available for preorder and put that MLB money towards that.

It should help pay off the Scorpio with a big discount on Day1. Just some time invested and the employee has to be receptive. Plus the points earned will be an added bonus.

I know its not a lot to work with but I bought a set to use as filler titles to go along with my PS4 listing up on craigslist. People sure are enticed by any extra games, regardless whether they're crap or not.

What's the rang value on em? If you got five

 

[Confidance]

Still think it is funny they have not fixed this yet.

They should've realized long ago that the TIV is actually flip flopped. This TIV should be the xbox 360 version. Either they are really oblivious or they simply said to hell with switching the script on this

 

[NoOtherOptions]

The cool manager at my GameStop offered me a switch he had set aside for "good" customers but I passed. They're only going for like 50-80 bucks profit after tax shipping and waiting for funds from eBay/amazon. I feel like the gamesto to BB back to GameStop flips right now are more profitable; or am I just dumb?

Lol just more proof that these are being held by GS staff. With apparently lots more coming I don't think these are going to be very profitable to flip compared to what you could have done over the last month with just flipping games. 1 week delivery right now if you preorder bundles in store.

Nepotism is how real life works unfortunately.

He didn't outright say they were holding them I just went by to ask if they got cases in and check the pre owned inventory for flips and he was like "hey did you need a switch?" With like a wink. But I was theee five minutes before when he told someone they were out. So yeah.

 

[blackbeard4886]

I am assuming the first 4 would be 2.50-PUR and the 5th would ring up full price.

 

[jedex]

Just came back and picked up 8 games for 2.50 each, so yes that's how they rang up.

 

[z24buddy]

So $2.25 each with Pro?

 

[burritodude17]

I have a buy 2 get 1 coupon 

what are some good games to buy and flip to bb?

 

[westcoaststyle]

[Daring]

^ Halo 2, Gran Turismo 3, and Diablo 2 are good money maker.

Does anyone know when the 4 for 10 deal ends?

 

[blackbeard4886]

I can't find FAQ!

 

[NoOtherOptions]

Hey guys what's a GameStop? I heard they sell things there? I like things. Money now please?

 

[acthechamp]

Go to GameStop. Ask for money.

While money not gained:

If they say no, try again.

If they say yes, take money and leave.

end loop

 

[Cnstntidnty]

It's that giant essay on the front page that you have to scroll through now. Before your link to the sheets.

Right after that, is the FAQ that's been there since 2014... ya know the one that has spoilers to click... for all the same answers.

remember when there was no spreadsheet? remember when there were no values on a website or app (other than this thread right here)? I shudder when I imagine if the current users were charged with working together to complile the TIV list like we had to do in the old days. geezer rant over.

[ritchardf]

this is especially funny to me because when my wife asks me if i remember something she said to me when i wasnt listening i always say "i member, i member" she has no idea its a south park reference.

 

[SonictheHedgehog1337]

Does anyone know when the 4 for 10 deal ends?

I'm wondering that as well. I can't find any info on the weekly ad or the Gamestop "deals" page. I won't be able to hit up the store that has the $4.99 games I want until Tuesday, so I'm hoping it lasts at least until then.

Guys, Gamestop currently has a "buy four preowned games ($4.99 or below) for $10" which apply to PS3, XB360 and PS4 games so you can mix and match, not sure if it applies to any other system but its a great way to get several games for damn cheap and if you can get ahold of a battlefield bad company 2 (PS3) you could boomerang it in as well to drop your cost further, have at it!

Thank you so much. Are you sure $4.99 Xbox One games don't qualify for the promotion? I wonder why they left those out.
