Looks like Modern Warfare 2 TIV popped up - it's been down for a while now, so locking in while I can.

You are correct - they like the box too, but I don't think it's required now.

Infinite list price may be $19.99, but it is really hard to find at that price online or off, so if you are a fan of the series, it could be well worth picking up.

Looks like Amazon is matching on a bunch of stuff now - GT5 is $36.75 now and NBA 2K11 is at $19.25.

Looks like they did sometime today - Black Ops are $38-$39, LBP2 at $37.50, AC Brotherhood at $32, and so on.

It looks like they have it now - http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0002TB4CW

Looks like Amazon is matching Gamestop's 3DS Trade Up deal ($50 for DS Lites, $75 for DSi and $100 for XL), but they aren't requiring you spend the money on pre-ordering a 3DS. There's no official thing, but the list on the trade-in homepage and the search results are showing the higher values.

These kind of popped out - Amazon's offering $9.50 and $12 for AC and AC2, respectively. Even after all of the bonuses at GS, it seems like Amazon is the better deal. On PS2 games, Amazon is only a little better (and sometimes a little worse) depending on how rare the game is, but the extra...

I think the match includes the 10% bonus from PowerUp, I would be shocked if GS is offering more than $43 for black ops after the 50% + 10%.

I emailed CS about it and in the response they apologized and said it was a pricing error. Also, no offense to any of you guys since I tried to do the same thing, but I felt kind of shady for taking advantage of something we all knew was a glitch, and I'm okay with the cancellations. By the...

Looks like Amazon matched most of these already.

And what was the trade-in value you sent it in for?

For some titles, some publishers (e.g., Activision and Ubisoft), will give each retailer their own UPC for the initial buy-in. That means the UPC that Amazon has on record is different from the one that BB or GS might have, so when they scan it, it doesn't come up as the right game (or...

It looks like Amazon might be matching the GameStop + 50% promotion (w/Edge): SMG2: $40 ($22 from GS in CAG Tracker, so +50% for promo and +10% for Edge = $35.20) Red Dead (PS3/360): $40 ($25 from GS + 60% = $40) Alan Wake: $38.50 ($24 from GS + 60% = $38.40) ModNation: $35.25 ($22 from GS +...

Has anyone noticed that the trade-in values on a bunch of games seem to have gone up? It looks like they're trying to match gamestops +30% promo: Super Mario Galaxy 2 - $35 Lost Planet 2 - $35 Red Dead Redemption - $35 Alan Wake - $35 Mind you, these are all new releases so there's...
