chickenhawk's Nocturne auction! DVDs coming soon! Discounts available for CAGs!

Shit... you might be better off just dumping that 57 game lot at EB / GS during the Trade 3 get an Extra $10 sale.

You'd already be guaranteed $190 right away in bonus credit, since you have 19 sets of 3.

Even if you got the minimum $1 per game, you'd make close to $250.... unless you were really hard up for cash.

Just browsing some of your games in the wiki, some of them even get $2 - $4... you might even get close to $300 in credit, espically if you want to an EB that gave you an extra 10% because of your Edge card.

Nah, not hard up for cash....just would rather have cash. I thought of EB, but would they even take half those games? If I was sure they'd take them all, I might just do that....provided no one makes a bid anytime soon.

Thanks for the initial bump, pimpin! :D

They take anything unless it's a sports game older than 2006 or a wrestling title.

I think every one of your games qualifies.

This way you don't have to worry about shipping, and shit, $300 in credit is nothing to scoff at. Just make sure you go to an EB so you get an extra 10% with your Edge card, Gamestop's won't do it IIRC.

If anything, buy some new games with that credit and sell those on Ebay, it would be alot easier and quicker than shipping a 57 game lot ;)

There are maybe 3 games that don't qualify. I have Madden 2004 and 2 wrestling games in there. Do I have to open all of the sealed games?

Oh and unfortunately, Idon't have an Edge card.

Nope, I didn't open mine, they told me they were going to open them before they took them in but I guess the guy forgot.

It's YMMV on the wrestling games... I mean, I traded Rumble Roses to my EB, and they didn't care. I think if you are trading in 57 games they will let a few slide.

And an Edge card is only $15, you'd make that back plus more just having one since it's an extra 10% on top of all your trade-in's.

Say you got $300 in trade-in's... Edge card would give you an extra 10% so that's another $30.

Hmmm...might go cancel that auction.

UPDATE....auction cancelled! BTW, does credit expire? I'm assuming not, but I haven;t traded anything in since I bought my PS2.
 
[quote name='chickenhawk']Hmmm...might go cancel that auction.[/QUOTE]

If they give you a hassle over it, just trade it in by itself, and go buy a copy of Powerdrome PS2... it's $1.99 used, every EB has some it seems.

But yea, just put the Madden in the middle somewhere... they won't turn any games down because that 57 game trade-in will make your store look fantastic in numbers.

At my EB, they just put the credit on a card, something Gamestop won't do for me either... and no, I don't think it expires.
 
[quote name='chickenhawk']Good advice...now to see if my son will sit still long enough for me to go do this today. I need to go check when this expires.[/QUOTE]

July 25th.
 
[quote name='pimpinc333']

P.S. You spelled Colossus wrong. Now it's your turn to find out where ;)[/QUOTE]

No I didn't...check the auctions again. ;)

That was easy! Thanks, buddy! Gotta go get the little dude up from his nap now...wish me luck. :D

Make sure to post all your trade-in values in the trade 3 thread so they can add them to the Wiki for future reference ;)

And no problem helping you out, either :D
 
[quote name='joevan']Nice save Roufuss :D
I'll drop some bids in - who knows, I might get lucky[/QUOTE]

Hey, you owe me some feedback on Ebay ;)

Did you get your games ok?

You could buy my whole list with that loot!!! You should have told me you had that kind of bank to spend on games. I could have skipped listing all this stuff and sold direct!

haha, damn - now I'll really have to jack up the bidding :bomb:

and if you want, you can hold off on San Andreas until your auctions end to see if you can save yourself some $ on shipping

Hey man! Long time no talk.
Put in a bid on Fable!
I see there are discounts for CAG's. Are there special discounts for Rat Bastard Tykes as well? :rofl:
BUMP!

Hey buddy! How's goes it?

Thanks for the bid! My posse gets special discounts, and that would include a certain rat bastard tykes. In fact, I think I only know one rat bastard tyke anyway. :lol:

You going to playing any sports next year? I hope you've been working on your bball game...
 
Oh yeah, forgot to mention...just added more stuff. Hopefully I'll be adding some DVDs in the next couple days. Anyone having any DVD trade in deals before I do?

:lol: Shaweet. lol.

Yeah, just finished spring soccer (8-0-2!!!). I played a little bit of everything, including goalie (2 1/2 games) and let by a single goal! (and it was my fault too because i hit it in the goal when i was on the ground and saved it :bomb: lol) Also scored 3 goals and had an assist, but i played Defense half of our games, so i wouldnt really call it a bad season. And now JV soccer is coming up, and its gonna be harsh with 4 hour practices over the summer... Also I am trying out for JV basketball working on my game this summer too.

And btw, is it just me or do topics drop FAST in this forum, lol

Nice! What's with the 2 ties!?!?!?! Slackers! Heh! Sounds like you had a good season to me. I never was very good at soccer I don't think (I only played it in grade school). I always thought I'd have to play goalie if I were to play longer. I'm kinda crazy and figured goalies had to have that trait.

Anyway, it seems threads drop fast if you're not really a regular anymore, which I'm not obviously. That's OK...it got the word out well enough I guess.

Ciao!
