Was good to see a promo that worked with hardware. Traded in plenty of controllers, a PS5 console, and made out with about $700 the last few weeks. This was a good promotion for sure.

Flipping directly from the b2g1 I see nothing but if you had bought around the Holidays there are some that can be flipped from their own sales. I did manage to find the new Assassin’s Creed and Monster Hunter during the latest b2g1, not to flip but a good deal. Flipping broken accessories...

No, they’ve been focused on cloud gaming, new series x consoles haven’t been very common to see lately and used pricing has been reflecting that. First time I’ve seen consoles get more expensive with time. Super weird.

In 2022 Amazon Warehouse was selling brand new consoles for $270+tax I got a few and that Christmas GameStop was giving $395 after 50% hardware bonus I traded my consoles in then. Wish I still had one!

Depends on what you are comfortable with, even if the prices go up $360 is a great trade value, I got my extra console at a good price and then sold the Fortnite code, so for me $360 was a great deal to trade one of my consoles.

Joy Cons at -$36 (highest in some time), saw someone take cash for their Series X I wanted to offer them $50 more as they would have come out ahead of what they got and it would have been more credit for me. $582 for a PS5 digital, a few extra controllers for the PS5 and Switch is not a bad deal.

Which has actually returned , just not affiliated with GameStop seems a lot of the staff came back too.

I think the console boost is still live like the controller boost but will probably be over tomorrow

$5 bonus on controllers is still active had some older bdm-020 Dualsense and got $32.50 each after the promo.

Wow yea that’s wild, they think we just play frisbee with them in our free time

I simply state the facts as I had bought it in the past many times, with refurbished products being acceptable replacements, I no longer feel the value is there. I leave it at that and I do not know why they get so offended and take it so personal. Was the program abused, probably, but I won’t...

I’ll miss them if they ever close for good. $27.50 for a pair of broken Joy Cons is pretty good.

They closed one of my closest stores, it was a small store but always has a good selection and was one of the more well presented stores in the area. I used my February coupon at the end of the month, I did not think the closures would matter but definitely is oddly more annoying than I...

I agree I might do it today before the value drops when a bunch are traded in

Amazon for me is worse, so many busted cases and sealed games where the disc has come loose. I miss a big in person selection

Yea this is normal now. It’s a gamble anymore for sure I haven’t had a sealed new game in ages I just expect them to be opened , no sticker at anything, no way to prove I didn’t open it and that it came that way Maybe end of February for tax season, February is always a slow month for any...

Occasionally I bought broken items in 2024 where the trade was higher even with the refurb fee. I simply buy from eBay on my phone, keep a small collection of damaged accessories, am honest about the working / non-working status. And can easily pick up a game or two a month, occasionally a...

How strange would it be if I told you it was a 2023 thread

Got Mana, Mario RPG, and Dragon Age today. Didn’t need them, but good prices. I feel like they will hold their trade values if I play them and dislike them at that price. Wish I could rent them from blockbuster instead.

Buying broken controller lots and aiming for a 30% or better return overall will always be worth driving to a GameStop, their refurbishment fees are very minor if you can get the right price
