What's the most amount spent on non-GS GCs in ONE transaction?  Is there a limit before a PUR account gets flagged for suspicious activity despite holiday season?

Honestly, trying to move credit for a 4K HDTV at BB Black Friday.

I've purchased $525 dollars of Amazon gift cards in one transaction before without experiencing any sort of issues.

 

[Perfect_Chaos]

I actually came here to ask about those Kindle gift cards. I plan on trading in my PS4 cause I barely play it anymore. My question is, can I use the Kindle cards for anything on Amazon, or is it limited to the Kindle?

a kindle giftcard is the same as an amazon giftcard. once load, it goes to your amazon online gc bal.

Alright. Thanks.

In your active offers, click on view all at the top right of that section. I thought I didn't get it either, but it was there.

Better not tell them to tank all the good stuff this time!

 

[cheapo911]

Thinking about trading in my 500gb Xbox One for $175 + $50 offer.

Do they require trading in controller too, or just the system?

Also, is this a decent trade-in offer?

Thanks. Gonna get in on this.

It was $250 for everyone without coupon until Monday. They will make you buy a used controller and add it to the bundle if you don't bring one.

Wow, you don't realize just how bad GS's TIVs are right now until you start browsing them to see what might be worth trading in if they hold.  Short list: not a whole lot even with the 50%.

AC adapters my friend. AC adapters.

Need more!! XD

GC Trade Credits > GS GC

Gift cards can't buy gift cards and you are taxed. Trade credits are exactly like cash but you are committed to spend it at GS minus tax in most states.

You can buy gift cards with gift cards. Just did it last week.

 

[acthechamp]

Need more!! XD

But they have to be official Microsoft ones, right?

 

[Narukami]

But they have to be official Microsoft ones, right?

Depends on if you have Jr. Detectives in the area or not and what their power level is. If they're at Raditz' level, it's manageable, but if it's OVER 9000!!! you might be screwed. Best to go official if you have em.

 

[For Paul]

Should I trade in Madden NFL 16 for $27.50 with Pro on Saturday or wait until Sunday for the 50%? Do you think the values will tank hard and even with the 50% that I will get less than $27.50 on Sunday? Decisions, decisions.  k

You should get more than $27.50 with the bonus. I do not expect the game to go under $20 at all. I guarantee it won't.

I agree. With football season in full motion and Christmas coming... it will be a highly desired Christmas gift. GameStop wants them from you.

So if I sign up for PUR Pro today, do I get immediate access to the coupon for $50 trade in bonus for a PS4?

 

[lusal]

So if I sign up for PUR Pro today, do I get immediate access to the coupon for $50 trade in bonus for a PS4?

I would say yes.

Especially because you've been good all week.

 

[Deliciouspinto]

So if I sign up for PUR Pro today, do I get immediate access to the coupon for $50 trade in bonus for a PS4?

Yes and no, some people beforehand have signed up for PUR and have waited like 2-3 days for the coupon to appear in they active offers.

But i have seen other cases where it appears almost immediately, they're system is weird.

 

[irishsoccermbw]

PM me an email address and I'll send you my coupon.

 

[Brewc5368]

The $250 TIV is over, replaced by a $175 TIV + $50 bonus TIV if you are PUR Pro (with coopun).

Well I was going to trade mine in for an elite, but do not have the $50 coupon and am PUR. Pro.

 

[acthechamp]

Yeah, I am Pro and I don't see it either. I am also looking through the mobile app.

 

[tearsintherain]

this is weird can't find rise of the tomb raider in either web or android app, but when i check for used copies of the game I see one store near me has one...

 

[nietzsche74]

Me know trade deal in the works as soon as me see $25 TIV for SW Battlefront.

This made me LOL, excellent DBZ reference.

But seriously, please only trade in high quality, first party power bricks. Anything less is a ticking time bomb for the person that buys it.

 

[ironmenpb]

Maybe this has been answered. But does anyone know if the guaranteed trade in value stacks with the +$10 when trading in towards halo ?

 

[mike95]

I called today and was told $25.

 

[chnandler_bong]

It should, the $10 is added to the transaction as $10 bonus TIV for whatever game you are trading in. Make sure that the game is for or and that it has a base TIV of $2 or more.

 

[NeedleInTheHay]

TIV's are garbage. MGS V for 17, Persona 4 Golden for 6, even with the bonus it sucks.

 

[ironmenpb]

$43 for fall out and $43 for creed syndicate sounds good to me. Especially when I got them from targets b2g1 for $60

 

[Rick4Life]

How do you get $43?

 

[no658ea3]

How do you get $43?

I'm not sure, but it will be $40 for each of those with a PRO card.

 

[Rick4Life]

Yea, exactly.

I'm such a math perfectionist asshole it drives me nuts when I see the terrible math spewed all over this forum.

OCD in full effect when I see it.

lol

 

[ironmenpb]

i figured $30 guaranteed trade in plus 10% power equals $33  plus the $10 on top of that       or is it $30 with the power up card?

 

[no658ea3]

i figured $30 guaranteed trade in plus 10% power equals $33 plus the $10 on top of that or is it $30 with the power up card?

It's $25*1.6=$40

 

[Rick4Life]

There is no $30 guarantee.

It's $25 plus 50% plus 10% base = $40. If they allow that promo to stack then it's $50.

 

[Dbill309]

Yea, exactly.

I was gonna chime in and say actually it'll be $41.25 lol.

Edit: Forgot it was base. I thought it was $27.50 + $13.75. I'm new at GameStop.

Those are subject to change at any time. The ad means nothing.

Check trade value.

 

[no658ea3]

That's a promotion, the system will select whichever one is better. Base is $25.

$30 Credit: $25+$5 PROMO+2.50 PUR=$32.50

50%: $25*1.5+2.5 PUR=$40

There you go, learned something new. (But they do end them early sometimes)

 

[Deader2818]

Some games actually a get base so there is no bonus in play but others get a lower base (usually $25) and they had a $5 promo to make it $30.
