I tried this afternoon . . . the guy rang in three used GBA games for tradein and tried to apply them to NDogs and they didn't bump up.
. . . I may not be able to go back until Monday and this will bug the shit out of me all weekend.
Someone with a receipt, what was the promo number?[/QUOTE]
We were heading to my inlaws this morning so I called an EB on the way . . . the clerk knew nothing about it and was pretty rude. So I called another on the way . . . I know the clerk who answered and he's really nice and knows EB up and down and he said it was a go.
I traded in these games:
Zero Mission
Warioware
Minish Cap . . .
Yeah right! . . . who is going to trade good games in on this deal?
Anyway the manager helped me and he is pretty clueless (really very nice but he dosen't know how things work) but the smart guy was there so he helped. They had to override the totals to set them to $10. Great in the case of a return or cancellation . . . no original values to revert to.
I traded Cartoon Network ($2 one), Castlevania classic ($3), Wario Land 4 ($5), Yugioh ($6), Konomi ($5), Ghouls and Ghosts ($5). Most of these were all games on hand most bought from EB with credit (gotten from past deals).
They said Iridion was POX and that it was stopping the deal from working on the computer but it turned out not to be in the sys. I said "excluded" nicely and they nicely gave me an excluded list . . . which had no GBA games but I let it pass . . . My out of pocket (considering I used credit to get the games in the first place . . . was like $15 for 2 Ndogs.
Then I bought four more GBA games $5 Aero Acrobat and Operation Armored Liberty and $6 Dragonball Z and Fire Pro Wrestling ($20 after Edge) with store credit in order to preorder (with Iridion? and another game) more Nintendogs (on Tue.)
I predict this deal will get killed in about a week . . . it is too open for abuse . . . buy $15 worth of games and get $30 game . . . cancel preorder and the credit to buy $30 in games and get $60 in credit . . . on and on.
To prolong this deal do it with some moderation and do not try to "flip" games on the same day . . . wait and go in with them later. Also, do not cancel the preorder immediately . . . be patient and cancel it in two weeks. Do not ask clerks if you can rebuy the games you just traded in.
