I'm noob to cb sites but whats a good one that people usually use? I just got the 5x but read theres cb sites for buying on eBay. 

As for limits, I haven't encountered a limit on GS gcs on eBay, think i purchased $800 in 2 days last time there was a 4x/5x.

I mainly use ebates, theyll give you 1% for gift cards on ebay.

I think its a good site since you can actually verify whether or not you actually received cashback on stuff and get to cs to check the ones you didnt receive automatically. I dunno if others do that since ive only used ebates and shopdiscover which sucks btw.

 

[bengi15]

I have the extra $10 credit coupon for ds4 trade in. Anyone know if it is limited to one ds4 or multiple

You can use my referal link to get some extra money on your first purchase as well(and for me)

Get out of here with that referral link! Lol

 

[MRW2276]

I use to always use ebates, but shopathome has the whole shopgold perk that made me start using them more often.

 

[person123]

Thanks for the info, I actually made a ebates account then bought some gcs on eBay. Stopped at gamestop on the way home and bought more eBay cards. Found out at the local store the manager there isn't working for the company anymore (he was always cool with me) and theres totally new workers I've never seen ever before, guessing they got moved when he left or something.

Wait so are you guys doing this - GS Trade Credit --> Ebay GC --> GS GC --> Ebay GC 

and then scoring 5x ebay bucks

I am but only when its 4x or 5x like today, when its 2x/3x is not worth doing it. Free money is free money I say, plus pur points.

Btw Shop@home will match TopCashBack's 1.5%+extra 10%... so u could've gotten 1.65% cashbk... that's wat I always do unless Shop@home has 2% for eBay at the time...

But shop@home is only good if u r going to buy eBay digital gcs....if anyone is buying something else like GameStop cards then iConsumer gives 4% bk on purchases at eBay

Didn't know you can get eBay GC with Gamestop GC. Thought it was trade credit only. Huh.

 

[breezee]

Are the eBay gift cards in denominations (25,50) or is it put as much as you like?

$25-$500

Let me know how you like the headphones.

Really like them. Didn't get a long chance trying them out, but they feel and sound great from the limited sample.

it is essentially a basic budget version of hyperx cloud II, without the extra ear cups, carrying case, and inline mic volume/mute button, and 7.1 sound card

Wait -- is this a new, standing policy for all trades? Or is it a promotion valid for only a specific period of time?

 

[Donut2922]

Most likely a promo. Problem is it isn't as easy to find a cheap game that was easily accessible as ATK. The good old days.

 

[chnandler_bong]

I don't think this has been posted:
 

 

[sladeums]

and i suppose even though it reads like it's a 20% bump, in reality it's probably only an extra 10% for 20 total.

right ?

 

[YellowGameboyColor]

Valid through 3/20/16 is kinda long. Might be some good opportunities for upgrades

I seem to recall the last time they did this you could get the extra % trade credit without purchasing a new game.

Is this real? I accidently (bleeeeeh) got a extra copy of tropical freeze I wouldn't mind dumping

 

[blackbeard4886]

I've updated my daily GS spreadsheet to include accessories and consoles. Games, accessories, and consoles are separated by tabs at the bottom.

State of Decay went up to $15.40 with PUR, for those of you able to find it at Redbox or still have an extra from the Target B1G2.

I wish there were an easy way to tell how many copies you have traded in. I believe I got close to a ban with Terraria, but did a piss poor job tracking receipts.

Take a lesson from blackbeard...spreadsheets...

Trade page is updated and yeah, it's an extra 10%. Valid today only according to the fine print. k

 

[slidecage]

wow so glad i dump paper jam for 30  down to 16  ouch

 

[GamerDude316]

Wonder if you can trade towards a $20 game...I have a copy of Murdered Soul Suspect from the Target deal to dump off.

As long as the $20 game is "New", I don't see why not.

 

[WNYX585AM]

Are there any issues using PUR coupons for things like B2G1 at the same time as a $10 Pre-Owned Reward Certificate?

 

[Z-Saber]

I don't think so, but I'm not 100%.

 

[GamerDude316]

Just make sure the three games aren't the same price otherwise you will be wasting the $10 coupon. To be safe I recommend picking one higher priced game and 2 lower priced ones.

 

[blackbeard4886]

Anybody on the east coast tried trading in anything yet to see if they get the 20% without buying anything new like last time?

Trying tonight, but unfortunately I know that isn't informative.

 

[invizibleskratchpikl]

I just tried a mock transaction with the 20% bonus trade promo. You have to apply the trade towards a new game purchase.

 

[Virtua]

Ugh I am so close to trading in my Xbox one to buy a new video card. I keep the damn thing unplugged most of the time. I like halo 5 but not enough to keep it for $200. I haven't played sunset overdrive yet either but I might never play it..

 

[chuckywang]

I used my B2G1 under $20 coupon yesterday but today I still see the coupon in my Active Offers. Did it come back or is it just GS's slow system?

 

[Deader2818]

It happens. You got a free coupon

 

[dorkyden]

i wonder if i can still find some ATK in GS

 

[Miami Flash15]

i wonder if i can still find some ATK in GS

it's only available as used for $0.79.

Just do it man, I've bought three xbox ones since last year. Truth is I don't have the time to enjoy 3 systems. I wish I did lol.

 

[Virtua]

That's true. The two big sticking points is I only have a lunar white controller and I like using it for my pc.

Maybe I should just keep an eye out for one of those elite controllers in the future instead.

 

[chuckywang]

Just an FYI on GS 20% bonus. It's only on games and not accessories. Found that out the hard way when I traded in a couple of 360 controllers. And to the person who asked, yes it's actually just a 10% bonus and the other 10% is just your PRO membership.

 

[RoxyWahine03]

Can the 20% bonus be on an online in-store order if the store doesn't have a game "new"? And does "new" mean just not pre-owned lol or new as in recently released games like this month? lol

And if your trade in value is > than the cost of the new game, does the rest not get the extra 20% lol.  I don't think I'll be liking this promo very much lololol .  Maybe I shall wait until the next extra 50%... which seems to be coming every 3 months or so lately.

Any new game I think. I bought a 2 year old game and it worked no problem.

 

[srac84]

For the 200 system credit do you have to trade in the controller too or is it just system and power cord

Controller required.

 

[GamerDude316]

20% extra towards a new game is no longer valid, right?
