$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:)

If your a Power Up Rewards member (which I am), Can you use the weekly special coupon that's 50% more trade-in on top of the values listed on the link in the first post? (ie. Forza Horizon is $35.00, so with that coupon it'll be $47.50) Is the coupon stackable with this promo?
 
Someone needs to actually check the promo coupon and edit if it works or not, report the findings, and have it edited into the OP. If it doesn't I won't be wasting my points, or gas to the Gamestop, since it's nowhere close...

No they don't stack. I think everyone should know this by now though. It has been answered like every other page of this thread.
 
So many of these games I have and am not rushing/dumping into this deal. Looks like it's time for another shopping spree!

Something kept nudging me about Forza at $15!:whistle2:#
 
Whoever said that amazon kindle cards may come to GS soon, I sincerely hope that is true. I would gladly cash in all my credit for AMZ GC since amazon sells diapers, wipes and formulas. Then maybe my wife will finally approve of my trading/flipping habits.
 
$15 for Rockband 3?

What are they trying to do to Spyro though? It's a junk title and it just keeps shooting up in price.
 
going ot head to gamestop tommow and trade in couple on this list and get far cry 3 for free :p What a deal seeing alot of these games are around a year old.

Yeah I should have not even mentioned it since it is complete rumor. Sorry if I got people all excited without anything really concrete. I hope it happens though.
 
Hope some of these values survive until Sunday.

"GameStop, Inc. reserves the right to cancel, terminate, modify or suspend the offer for any reason without notice."

They have removed games from lists before when they ran similar promos in the past. I won't be able to get there until Sunday so I'm hoping they don't remove the games I'm planing on trading.
 
Both Kirby games are 19.99 at blockbuster plus 50% off 19.99 or less. I just got back after finding both but didnt see anything else.
 
[quote name='Deader2818']You need to be a pro member to get the prices (can be the free one)[/QUOTE]

oh ok well hope my paid one turned into free one if not im sure i can still get the prices
 
Welp, got $240 after an error by the manager there (he scanned Assassin's Creed 3 twice... he realized it after and still let me keep the credit since it was his error... score!)

Bought a Wii U because I'm a lame consumer whore

Well, it says not valid with any other offers.

Deduce what you will from that.
 
Im trading in like 110+ worth of credit with nothing to get till next year really, lol.

Got pretty much every Wii U game I want and only ones im on the fence about is Tekken Tag and maybe Marvel or Black Ops 2 (never played a CoD game)
 
Trading in Bully and Namco Museum for the 360 tomorrow morning. I'll get $30 credit...heck, I think I paid maybe $20 for both games 3-4 years ago!
 
These prices are almost tempting me to pay retail for need for speed on 360 just so I can use it with the wheel I just got from that BB dotd. $30 is probably the highest I'd get for my ps3 copy (and is also a profit over black friday). But paying retail is usually reserved for what cag's call suckers. Wonder how long Sly will hold it's value.
 
just traded in Madden 13 Dead Island and Assassin's Creed fo 70 dollars store credit and I have the free Power up card...
 
Sly sales for 39.99 used still at gamestop. likely will hold its value unless Sony decides to run another print on it.

Im tempted to trade mine but god damn it, I went through a lot of work to get that game at Wal-mart black friday after losing out on Amazon twice, lol.

I think you can still buy it for 17 new shipped from NewEgg (if anyone still wants a reasonably priced copy).
 
Thanks OP! I traded in 7 games and got myself a refurbished 32 GB Vita stick for $80 in credit and Persona 4 Golden. With 25 in credit left over.

It was on sale on Live Games on Demand for $15 last week. Might still be on sale.

You need to be a Power Up Rewards member to get these values, not pro. Pro is the paid one, and it will get you an extra 10% on top of these values.
 
A little off topic here, but I heard a while ago that if you pay for an item in all trade-in credit, they don't charge you tax. Is this true, or did I misread?

Depends on which state you are in.
 
I ended up getting about $300 in credit and used a third of it to buy 2 copies of Xenoblade online. It's about time for me to try it out!
 
So I did miss something. Gamestop will be selling the Kindle Fire http://news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-57557785-94/gamestop-to-carry-kindle-fire-give-$25-gift-card-with-purchase/
 
I traded in Hitman: Blood Money and WWE 13. I can't believe that at this point they are giving $20 TIV on a game that was made in 2006! I'm glad I held onto it for that long. I'm pretty sure the only reason is because the new Hitman game came out so maybe people want to pick up the earlier copies for the continuation of the story.

Also went to Kmart and picked up a few copies of Portal 2 to flip for a profit. The TIV is so tempting I'm considering selling my copy that I've had since day 1.

I say trade them. 22$ after the extra 10% from the pur card aplied makes each copy 100% profit over cost. Im getting 66$ for my 3 copys which is sweet !
 
Okay, quick question- Is the Trade In Credit only for Pre Owned games or anything at GameStop ? The reason I am asking this is I traded in Madden and Sly for 45$ credit but the store employe thinks that's the 50% bonus credit which is actually less than 45$ but insists its the same and says it's towards pre owned games only. Any light on this would be appreciated!

The values you got are based on the promotion, which I think the link is in the OP. (Here it is for you again www.poweruprewards.com/PUR/Index/TradeValues). The 50% is a separate promotion than this one. You can show the employee the link provided if he/she is still confused.
 
[quote name='SInX4Lyfe']Anyone had luck trading multiple same game? If so , howd u do it . Did u show reciept?[/QUOTE]

I traded in 2 copies of Forza Horizon without having to show a receipt. It depends on your store I guess.

For any of your gamesss. They say that because they are not aware of the promo , just ring it up and show them ur PUR card and it'll show

Thanks! That's what I assumed. But the guy at the desk, as usual, acted bossy and insisted it was only towards pre owned copies even after I showed him the online link . I realized it was better to keep my mouth shut and walk out instead of continuing it with him.
