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!

1. Did they not send the item back yet? You don't "demand" anything, if they determine it was lost they will credit you the trade in amount. Do it over chat, and just ask the status of the rejected item.

2. What? Did you get the item back? Or do you mean you had three of them. I am just confused.

3. No there is not something you can do, it isn't that it needs to ARRIVE within 25 days, it needs to have been received, AND PROCESSED. You took to long in that case.

1. No, they didn't. It's been two weeks. No item and no tracking information. I wasn't going to demand it. I understand what to do now.

2. No, I didn't. It's like this. I locked in two of them. One was accepted, one was rejected. So I submitted another trade in, but didn't ship it. So I have three trade-ins. One that was accepted, one that was rejected that they did not send back yet or ship or anything and one new one that I was able to place since the second was cancelled. My question is, can I get the value for the rejected one that seems to be lost, AND trade in a third one that I will buy and ship tomorrow?

3. Alright.

Thanks for your help.

If you have the trade locked in than you would be able to send it in no problem. Another thing is that don't even mention #2 to the rep, if they ask say you were planning to re-submit it. But don't bring it up yourself.

But yes draw the attention of it to amazon and they will credit you with the amount of the lost item.

 
Has anyone gotten their Gamecube's (Indigo) accepted yet? Sent mine in a few days ago. Should arrive there today. Hoping to have the credit in before Black Friday. 

Plan on using the $356 I should get in credit from multiple trades on a 32in TV, bluetooth headphones, MineCraft (360), 3DS XL, Lego SpongeBob set, etc. Hoping Amazon has some great deals on Black Friday since I only plan on shopping there that day.

Trying to get all my Christmas shopping done. Shopping for 7 people on a budget and what not. Was able to get all my gifts fairly cheaply last year but could only buy my brothers and sisters gifts from myself. Couldn't get my parents anything but I did get them Nook HD+ 32GB's when B&N was clearing them out for mother's day. Did manage to get a Galaxy Tab 1st Gen 7in, PS3 250GB, 360 250GB and 3DS Ambassador for only $450+ for last year's Christmas. All thanks to CowBoom of course though.

Anyways, hope the Gamecube's get accepted. I did include all the cords and one had a controller. My RB3 Keyboard Bundle should get accepted as LN but the box was a bit beat up. It was opened but everything was in perfect condition apart from the box.

Indigo gamecube has been processing for a day - see what happens.

Rockband 3 still in limbo. Delivered 24 hours ago, but still says they haven't received it. I guess I will give it another day or so until I contact CS and see what is up.

 
So what all would be needed when trading in my copy of ghosts prestige edition? I would like to keep the camera and dlc if possible to just trade in the game in the steelbook and the prestige edition box, maybe the strap too.

all contents of special editions are expected to be included (save dlc redemption) to receive the highest trade in value. there's a possibility you could get it accepted as 'acceptable' if you keep the camera, but it'd be pretty silly for them to take that.

Thanks pete, I was thinking of the acceptable condition as I remember people trading in games missing accessories in the past but was wondering if others have had success recently or if they had clamped down on it.
 
 
This was asked before but there wasn't a straight answer, if I trade in Kinect should I include the original box? I don't know if the refurb box says "Refurbished" on it or it has a different SKU.

Also, was the Mad Catz Arcade Stick for 360 higher than $49 at one point? I just happen to have one sitting here that I got at a garage sale a while back for $15 and this seems like the perfect opportunity to trade in.

Thanks!

I sent mine in a week or so ago and it got accepted today. It included the console, cables and controller.
 
Well thank you Amazon for sending me my Capcom Triple Packs back more than a month after it was rejected. Already got credit for it due to them not knowing where my stuff were nor any tracking.

Though the TIV dropped to $14, going to send it out today wit no return so I can get $20. Paid $30 for the games and already got $56 for it so it works in my favor.

That doesnt seem very honest. Almost like a type of fraud... I'm fucking with ya. :)
Click to expand...
Its all good, I was thinking the same thing... The very reason I didnt buy any Just Dances last night for $8 from Amazon and trade in for $20 TIV.

The way I see it, I doidnt known I was even getting the games. I thought they were lost forever and so did Amazon. Before that, I was going to send it back for acceptable instead of just good w/ no return.

Now I can still do that. It isn't my fault Amazon sent my items out well over a month since it was rejected. They didn't even know it was returned nor had any tracking for it.

I would feel bad if both sides knew it was coming back and Amazon didn't have me wait over a month for it.

Did the trade up for BF4 and Madden for the X1.
They received them a week from today and they have been processing since Monday. What's the deal?



Same thing happened to me, mine just got accepted earlier today. The upgrade applied no problem, as well as the $30 for a dual shock 4.
 
Amazon trade-in time is terrible now, package arrived a week ago and has been processing for 3 days+ now. Really want to get my Battlefield for Xbox one, if they don't get it done today the earliest I can get the game is Monday/Tuesday. First world problems I know but I'm starting to miss the old crew from the North East.

My trade is still marked as in transit and it's been there since Monday. I have to order BF4 in the next 2 hours to get it tomorrow. Come on...I might as well wait until the last second right?

Damn it. I locked in two separate FIFA trade's and I sent in the one that didn't have the bonus. Ugh.

Don't like chatting Amazon with all these ban stories lol

 
My indigo Gamecube was accepted today for $99. I sent in the console, controller and cables (no original packaging or game).  Thank you to whoever posted that.

 
So, my Blue DS story still doesn't have a conclusion. Last wednesday, contacted CS, told me to wait a week. Yesterday was the day he should have e-mailed me, nothing. Waited another day, and I contacted CS today, only to be told I have to wait a couple more days for her email. Hopefully, this rep actually will do something about it. Need this credit for Black Friday.

 
Well looks like no $25 trade up promo for my BF4 tonight. I'm going to order it anyway so I can have it tomorrow. If I order another copy once I get my $25 promo and then return my first order using the second copy I get would that be worth it? I'd only lose $3 or so from the shipping right and I would save $22?

Well, I got my problem resolved. They gave me the value of the game in promotional credit. Problem is, it's promotional credit. Seems like a real hassle to use. Do you have to use it all up in one order? I think I read somewhere that you do. I only plan on using about half of it on my next order.

Now that I got the credit, I still have that third one I can ship. Going to do that tomorrow.

No, you don't have to use all the promo credit on a single order. It's basically like gift card credit except it can only be used on items shipped and sold by Amazon.

 
My shit got rejected! No reasoning either. They were brand new. I just opened them and sent them in. I called Amazon. This is after I checked them twice via chat this week. They rep was nice and worked with me. Once he understood what happened he apologized and gave me the $50 promo credit. The games are coming back though and are now way under what I locked them in at $26.60.

Do I have to send them in again for trade because he game me the credit or can I trade in at Best Buy? I don't want to lose my Amazon account over dumb shit.
 
Be aware that if the trade-in drops below $25 on any of the Xbone trade-up games they don't automatically give you the extra credit when you order the Xbone version.  So for example if you get a trade in value of $20 they will just give you the $25 bonus credit.  You will have to contact customer support to get the extra $5 trade in credit guaranteed by the promotion.

Whenever I've had an issue like that I tend to get them returned in much worse condition (broken cases, scratched games) so you really won't be able to trade them to Amazon, anyway. Since they've already given you a credit or promotional credit to resolve your issue, the trade transaction is essentially closed. You can try again, with a new trade, and it probably is better to lock a trade-in value now while it could be higher, and check it daily to see if they change (for better, at least) to resubmit.

But, depending on their return condition, you probably would want to trade it at Best Buy or GameStop (especially since you can do disc-only on trades for full value; that's if the case is returned in bad condition).

Keep them. They'll probably be in bad condition anyway.
 
So my trade doesn't get processed and I have to order BF4 for the One with no discount. It finally ships tonight and I get the $25 off promo email from buying it...Really Amazon...really?

I was blah about this too. I traded in NBA2K14 last week but the process takes so damn long. I'll just wait because I don't need two copies for $95.

I've always wondered this but I've never had reason to try. Why would you cancel something mid-transit instead of just letting it get rejected and mailed back? Unless you've changed your mind and don't want them to accept it...?

I had two FIFA trade-in's for the 360--one had the $25 upgrade promo and one did not (the one I mailed in). And I don't like chatting Amazon for credits after these ban stories.

 
Found a Brand New Kinect w/ Kinect Adventures on Craigslist for $35. Comes with the box and everything, and locked in a trade for Like New. Hopefully it all goes well as this is my first time ever trading in to Amazon!
