Old thread, new thread here: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?p=8775793

WHEN REPORTING TRADE-IN VALUES PLEASE POST BASE VALUES & SYSTEM IT IS FOR.


First post contains promo information & useful information and frequently asked questions. The second post is blank currently but is there for expansion or to revert back to the way things were. Third post has the 360/Wii/PS3 values. Fourth post has the PS2/GC values. Fifth post has DS/PSP values. Sixth post has hardware/accessory values for all systems.

Instructions on finding games in the database and inputting the values from different sections can be found in my blog post here: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=14143. I would put the entire post in the thread but this is already kind of a large post.

FAQ
These trade-in values are really low!
While that may be true, if you combine the games with the right promotion they can work to your advantage. There are knowledgeable people in this thread that are normally willing to help.

Is there any way to look at what the previous values reported on a game?
You can search through this thread and previous ones to see what a game has been reported in the past. With the TIV Tracker you can sort by date and then go through the list of past updated values through that as well. Here are the previous GS TIV Threads: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13

Can I trade-in sealed games?
No. You might come across the rare GameStop that would let you do it, but they are going to open them anyway.


I don't want to get hassled about the values I post, how can I get the information out there?
If you do not feel comfortable or willing to put the values in the thread you have two options available. You can input them in the TIV tracker or you can send them to me via PM. Either way the database and these lists will be updated. Putting them into the TIV tracker does save me some time later on.

Do trade-ins have to have their original case, insert and manual?
No, however it will be YMMV on if they charge you a refurbish fee for them in that condition. Most GameStops wont charge a fee but there are some that charge for incomplete games.

Will they accept my game if it is really beat up?
YMMV. It really all depends upon the employee you get. Some will charge refurbish fees, some wont, some wont accept the game and others just take them without a second glance.

What are the refurb fees on games?
There appears to be set prices for set value ranges. We aren't 100% certain on the splits just yet. Here is what we have currently:
$0.25-$2 Value:
$0.75 Refurb Fee
$2.01-$4 Value: $1 Refurb Fee
$4.01-$7 Value: $2 Refurb Fee
$7.01-$10 Value: $3 Refurb Fee
$10.01 & Higher Value: $4 Refurb Fee
This information isn't guaranteed by any mean and we are still working on nailing it down.

What are the refurb fees on consoles?
They are listed in the hardware TIV section, highlight in red.


I have a Collector's/Limited/Special edition of a game, do I have to trade-in all of the extras?
No, but there are a handful of games that their variations have separate listings at GameStop: Madden 09 Anniversary Edition, Battlefield: Bad Company Gold Edition, and a few others.

Why didn't the percent bonus go for my accessory for a system that was included?
Unless stated otherwise, and they are rarely included, the bonuses never apply to accessories. Except the EDGE card of course.

I traded in a bunch of games for the "Trade X, get $X bonus" promo and it gave me the percentage bonus instead?
I can't give concretes on why this happens. GameStop computers are normally pretty good at giving you the better promo. In the case of a percentage bonus being run at the same time as a "Trade X, get $X" promo, things can get messy. The system appears to only give one promo on games per transaction so if you had a few games that you want to go to the percentage bonus and a stack for the "Trade X, Get $X" it will regularly apply the percentage to all of the games. Your best bet is to do all "Trade X, Get $X" games in one transaction on their own. The GameStop clerk may say that the system will figure it all out, tell them you want a separate transaction anyway. As always, check your receipt before you leave the store.


Can I trade in multiple copies of the same game?
YMMV. The official policy is no, but there are some GameStops that overlook that rule.

What all do I have to trade in for a console trade-in?
Xbox 360: Console Unit, power brick, A/V Cables, Controller (wired/wireless)
Wii: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cables, Wiimote, Nunchuck, Sensor Bar
Playstation 3: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cable, Controller, USB Cable
Playstation 2: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cable, Controller (Must be a DualShock2)
*Fat unit requires either back cover or network adapter*
GameCube: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cable, Controller
PSP: Handheld, A/C Adapter
Nintendo DS/DSLite/DSi: Handheld, A/C Adapter, Stylus

Can I trade in a defective/broken console?
For the most part yes. If it powers on but doesn't play games, they will take the console as a refurb unit and put a refurb fee on the console. The refurb fee on the console will vary on the price of the console so those numbers will change. You are still required to trade in everything required listed in the question directly above. They will not, however, take RROD 360 consoles. There may be stores that still do it, but official policy is to not take them in.

What is the difference between PowerUp Rewards and PowerUp Rewards Pro?
The basic card is free and only allows you to acrew points when spending money. The Pro card costs $14.99 and is basically the same as the previous EDGE program.

How much does a PowerUp Rewards Pro subscription cost?
It costs $14.99 and is good for a year. It also comes with a 1-year subscription to Game Informer magazine.

What bonuses come with having an PowerUp Rewards Pro card?
You will get an extra 10% trade-in credit on the base value of the game, extra 10% off the purchase of pre-owned games and 10% off new strategy guides.

Does the Power Up Rewards Card give me a bonus on hardware trade-ins?
No. You will only get the bonus for games and accessories.

What if I want cash instead of credit, what do they deduct?
If you decide that you want cash instead of credit, they will take 20% off the base values and promos will not apply.

Does promo "....." have a minimum trade-in value?
If the promo has a minimum trade-in value requirement, it will be listed in the promo. If it isn't there, then there is no limit. However, as with all trades, they are subject to manager approval so the manager could have setup his own little rule-set requiring a minimum of whatever.

I used a Power Trade promo for a pre-order, can I cancel that pre-order and get the credit or move it to another game I want?
Yes on both accounts. However, if you do a bunch of the power trades and just straight drop the pre-order you could create some ill-will between yourself and the employees you cancel on. However, if you look at the wordings on promos, they can remove the bonus trade-in value if they decide to.

I just tried to use a promo that has a select list of games eligible, but they say my game isn't eligible anymore, what gives?
Basically they have the right to change the eligible games at any time. They tend to update these frequently so as to lock out any easy/cheap games. It's best to check the eligible list the day of your trade.

Can I stack two different trade-in promos?
No. The only thing that will stack with trade-ins is your EDGE card. Some will report success, but this requires a manual override and is very YMMV.

If I pay for an item using all credit on my card, do I have to pay sales tax?
This varies depending upon the state you live in.

What states charge sales tax on purchases paid in full with credit and which ones don't?
Charge Sales Tax on Credit Purchases: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia
Does Not Charge Sales Tax on Credit Purchases: Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming
No Information Yet:


My state doesn't charge sales tax on purchases made by credit, why is gamestop.com charging me tax?
It is just the way they have designed their system. The best theory we have seen is that since you are only inputting the number off of the back of the card, it isn't going to pick up the programming from the specially tagged EDGE cards. Some kind of programming that gets input from their system that wont show up when only inputting the number off the back of the card.

50% is no more.

I have just one new trade value to report... and it's a BIG one

:360: Perfect Dark Zero - 0.20

Good thing it wasen't my only trade in!

:ps2: GTA: San Andreas - 8.00
:wii: Sonic Unleashed - 8.00
:360: BulletStorm - 11.00
:360: Nier - 7.00

Was pleased to hear someone came into my local gamestop and bought a copy of Luigi's Mansion after hearing about Mansion 2. I went ahead and pre-ordered Super Mario 3D and Mansion 2, and added on to my Zelda pre-order. Managed to get a disc only copy of Alpha Anthology, which was worth it considering VGIB is having that Ps2 48% off sale. Perfect Timing. :p

6/16:

Wii Component cable - $4.25 (no change)

I got an official Nintendo one from Blockbuster for $3 so I took my older third-party one to Gamestop. I think I only paid about $3 or $4 for that one originally anyway.

What were the dates on those values?
 
When they say a deal ends on a certain day like June 19th does that mean that's the last day of the deal or from that day and every day afterwards the deal is over?

It means that's the last day. So, in your example, the deal will work on the 19th but not the 20th.
 
Got some not-so-nice price drops on my trade-ins today.

ps2.gif
8MB Memory Card - 0.50
gc.gif
Official Nintendo Controller - $4.00

I'm sorta bummed that I got socked for a refurb fee on a gamecube system because it was a little "dusty" (which was bs since I wiped it down pretty good), if I had known they were going to do that I would've given GS a controller that actually needed a button unstuck rather than a nice one...

Edit: Mainly though I wanted to warn folks about the ps2 memory card drop, these definitely aren't as good as they used to be!

Once again at GameStop I was assured by the employee that the 40% is available to ONLY those with the real, physical coupons. He said they're supposed to give them out this weekend to anyone who purchases a used game (although from what I've seen, they never remember to give you one so you have to ask yourself). Not only that, but it's supposed to be 1 per person. So even if you recognize the same person making another purchase, you're not supposed to give them an additional coupon. After this weekend, they're supposed to throw them all away.

I managed to snag 4 so far. I'll probably use most of them myself since BBV may have the B1G1 during that week as well, but we'll see. If I have any extra, I'd gladly ship them to anyone at cost. Although it'd be easier to just pick one up at your local GS with the B2G1 :)
 
[quote name='ZombieToast']Gah, if only I had money...I'd be willing to pay at least twice what GS is paying for most of this stuff.[/QUOTE]

Yeah same here especially if someone has some Gamecube controllers or something.

I think I said this earlier in this thread, and I know we have a trading forum, but it would be nice to have a thread where people say what they are gonna trade in before they trade them in so people can grab the stuff from them. Because I usually have an idea of what Im trading in a few days before I actually do it.

I sometimes don't catch the promo changes quickly so having it editable is nice. This is also the first time something like this has happened.

The trouble with gamecube controllers is that I'd do no better than what Gamestop pays even at $8-9 shipped. Plus GS is more convenient. ;)

Yeah i hear ya man, its just Id rather sell something to CAG and get cash/Paypal, but I certainly understand why people/me trade the games in to Gamestop. It helps now that Best Buy takes tradeins and make it easy to flip the GS credit recently. Thats one of the reasons why Im throwing it at Gamestop.

I checked on Amazon about values recently, and it looks like it's best if you sell it there. The thing is going for obscene prices. It appears the wheel is out of production and suddenly valuable.

Yeah I saw it was about $24 on amazon. Was hoping for a bit more. Hopefully you're right about them being valuable. I don't see them anywhere. I may be better off waiting until the next big racing game, I guess Forza 4 comes out relatively soon. Thanks for the response.

I didn't mean as in trade it in on Amazon! I meant sell it through their Marketplace (if you don't mind shipping it yourself and everything that goes with it):

See. More "valuable," right? :applause: When I checked a few days ago there were more obscene prices like $300. I guess it dropped closer to what you would've paid retail for a new one back then. But, they're definitely out of production and people still seem to want them. The reason I can see the price being so high is because the MadCatz one lacks force feedback and can't use the regular Xbox rechargeable batteries. On top of that, the only other "affordable" option is that unreleased motion-sensing wheel Microsoft has shown off at E3.

I want one... So bad..
 
[quote name='KMunley']Does anyone know the Current TIV for the official xbox 360 racing wheel? I have the box and everything as well.[/QUOTE]

Gamestop doesn't take it, sell it on Amazon Marketplace.
 
[quote name='KMunley']Yeah I saw it was about $24 on amazon. Was hoping for a bit more. Hopefully you're right about them being valuable. I don't see them anywhere. I may be better off waiting until the next big racing game, I guess Forza 4 comes out relatively soon. Thanks for the response.[/QUOTE]

Ill give you whatever Amazons TiV is plus $10 and shipping :D
