$20 for Portal 2? $25 for Sly Cooper collection? $15 for Bully? The FIRST Assassin's Creed on PS3 is getting $15?! What year is this?!

Proof since some people doubt what I say :)cry:)

Just traded in Madden 13 and Dead Island GOTY for $57 #ChaChing and sum change. Put it towards the new Metal Gear so under $10 out of pocket for it sounds like good news!
 
[quote name='breakfuss']Pretty sure you can't trade in sealed games. You should unwrap them before going into the store (if you're certain you want to trade them in).[/QUOTE]

Bingo. It's a liability issue with the assumption that they may be stolen goods. I've heard many stories of people grabbing games from Targets and Walmarts close by Gamestops, and just bringing them in still sealed to trade (mostly for cash, of course).
 
Is pro the paid membership? My girlfriend paid for a membership at gamestop, not sure if its pro or what. In case anyone is wondering, I don't ever shop at GS.

Correct. They won't take sealed games. You think they would since they try to pass off used as new but they don't.
 
Guys may want to check your PUR accounts. I just had 8391 points deleted from my account due to a "points processing error" and someone else had around 1500 deleted in the TIV thread.
 
Anybody know what gift cards they sell now? I heard they updated their selection. hoping for amazon gift cards but highly doubtful.
 
thank all , I recognize that the boxart of forza horizon was damaged during shipping from MS Store. Will they accept my trade in?

No Amazon that I have ever seen. I did see Taco Bell:)

They sell kindle gift cards, which you can use for anything at amazon.

I recognize that gamestop takes disc only games.... so do that.

Game Stop sells the Kindle giftcards?!?!

Are these values base or with every bonus combined?

These are promotional. You'll get extra if you are unlocked off of the base. The base is roughly half to 2/3 the promotional prices in the list.

Unlocked? This Best Buy or Game Stop Power Up Rewards? So I will get 10% more in addtion to the values but I can't stack the 50% PUR coupon?

Confusing me bro.

I asked about this in the Gamestop Kindle thread, looks like it might be true. Anyone see Kindle cards at Gamestop today?

great question. will the PUR 50% coupon stack with this?
 
[quote name='brandtron8000']I recognize that gamestop takes disc only games.... so do that.[/QUOTE]

Thank you for your opinion. Since my Forza horizon is new sealed, it is damaged during shipping. It is impossible to return to MS Store online to exchange another one because of the closing deadline. So, I am considering whether I tear off the seal and trade it to Gamestop.

Here is my damaged of the cover art, although it is still new sealed. I am afraid gamestop will not accept it.

Doesn't GS accept games without the cover? I thought they did.

Help?
 
[quote name='ZxT Vendetta']Just snagged all the copies of Portal 2 at my K-Mart :D[/QUOTE]

Is Portal 2 cheap at K-Mart or something?

Wondering if the 50% Steal of the Week thing stacks as well.
 
[quote name='T1NY']Help?[/QUOTE]

If she paid $15 or whatever and got a silver card, then it's Pro. If she didn't pay, then it's not and she'd get a black card.

It's $10 at KMart through close of business on Saturday.

They are on sale this week for $9.99 (both systems)
 
[quote name='klimb22']You paid too much. :lol: Most of us paid $0.[/QUOTE]

They'd have to pay me to take that pos :lol:

She paid, and she gets magazines too, so I guess its pro...THANKS!!!
 
If you want to move some BB credit over to GS you can get Mario Party 9 for $25 after @gamer coupon which trades in for $30 at GS.

I need to go the other way lol, so does Game Stop now sell Kindle giftcards?
 
[quote name='IamPro']I need to go the other way lol, so does Game Stop now sell Kindle giftcards?[/QUOTE]
I feel you. I don't need/want any more GS credit, but the fact that these are easy and readily available, I can't pass it up. Why can't GS sell new MacBook Pros or something?
 
Simple move would also be to pick up a copy of Just Dance 4 on xbox and Wii. Flip them to GS for 50 dollars. Then go to BB next week and PM there deal for the $40 gift card. It is only a $10 flip but every little bit helps.
 
This promo is pretty crazy, wtf is gamestop planning? Trollin us cause they think the world is gonna end?

Also, wish Tekken Tag 2 was on this so I could of added that earlier
 
I guess it's good that I finished AC3 today. Gonna get rid of that, the first game, DA:O, Portal 2, and Arkham City. Maybe The Orange Box too, although I haven't finished that yet.
 
Traded in Assassin's Creed, Dead Island GOTY, Just Dance 3, and DBZ: Budokai Tenkaichi 3.
I was waiting for a good promo to preorder Ni no Kuni for the steel book bonus, but it seems they ran out of the bonuses.

Edit: Hm, steel book bonus still shows on the site. I wonder if it actually ran out...

Does the 10% pro bonus come off these values on the list or some "base" value not mentioned? I went in today expecting $38.50 for forza and $33 for DC3 but it came out $5 lower...
 
Thanks Scorch. Good-bye Forza, Sly, Kirby. I'll pick you up on the rebound.
Don't bother calling, as the promo doesn't show until they hit total during the transaction.
 
Traded in my Just Cause 2 for PS3 and got $7 (not the $15 the 360 version is going for). I got rid of it b/c I will probably never play it AND it is/was free from PS+ anyway.
 
I called and they told me the trade on Forza Horizon is 18. Did this already go down or is there a promo that kicks in to get it up to 35?
 
bread's done
