Eb Games-Trade 3 $8 games and get 69.99 towards any game/preorder!

I went in on Friday and the girl working there told me it only applied to games released in the past 7 days and pre-orders. Any confirmation on this or have you guys been able to score any game you wanted?

I traded for Left 4 Dead yesterday with no problems, and that's at least three months old. YMMV I guess.

that's their general rule (i've seen them reference a list, but one of my stores says exactly what you said - preorders and anything in its first week or so of release).

they told me that again on wednesday, but said the weekend (i was told friday-sunday in particular) would be any game. i'm guessing the girl working was just uninformed.
 
My EB Games just told me a new release is considered any game released in the last 14 days.

The other one down the street said last 7 days... So it all depends on the manager.

Hmmm.. Yeah I guess it's YMMV.

The other guy working there told me that they had some more Trade 3/ Get 1 Free weekends coming up in April also. The 3 games I brought in still have pretty big TIVs so I'll eventually be able to unload them.

On another note, I did manage to trade in NHL 09 and the girl gave me $40! It's on the Most Wanted list but I didn't expect it to be so high. Scored myself a copy of the new Star Ocean for $32.00.
 
man this trade3 promo is alot YMMV...at one ebg the guy said ANY game instock in the store for 69.99 is allowed...other ebg said only games listed on those promo cutup boards hanging from the ceiling at the store, i ended up getting god of war 3...2010 yay!
 
Yeah, the deal was for this weekend only, sorry I didn't see this thread earlier. Now it changes back to the cut-out board on the ceilings. Some EBGs will do it all the time, I normally do it for anyone that comes in as it pushes trades, and nobody ever asks questions. The person normally wants a game that will be trade 3 or a game that was recently trade 3 anyways. Most places will still do this on games that are in their new release sections/in upcoming releases.
