They did drop, doubt there will be any boomerangs.

Again the issue isn't flat boomerangs it's b2g1 boomerangs. To make money on those you only need them to sell around 20 and trade back within 25% of that. Much bigger band. I agree flag out not worth it currently though.

Stealth bump over as expected

 

[GamerDude316]

Yeah, glad I forced myself out last night to trade Infinite Warfare PS4. Got $33.75 which is about $10-$12 more than I'd get now.

Yea, Mortal Kombat X was 15 before any bumps yesterday and I think it is down to 7 now. Glad I went and did mine yesterday too.

 

[Vulgarism]

Maybe I should have looked into this sooner, but it looks like a handful of games I'm getting rid of have decent values... Most surprisingly FE Fates: Conquest is still at $18.70 (after Pro.)

It was at $22.50 ($24.75 w/ Pro) yesterday.

 

[NoOtherOptions]

We can hope for a stealth bump this weekend or next maybe. Good news is there is still 19 days on this new promo.

Noooo! Ah well, I had the opportunity and it passed me by! You live and learn!

We just had one and GS usually does those near the end of a given month, so don't get your hopes up too high.

 

[Kyle1022]

Sorry that asking for additional spread sheet features

You mean asking for 10% loss boomerangs to be color-coded so that you don't have to look at numbers and do 4th grade math? Yes, such a great feature

I also ended the sentence with "but I can just figure that out myself" or something along those lines. Nice try guy.

 

[NoOtherOptions]

What the is the issue? I literally said hope and maybe. outta here with that

 

[ZeroGame]

Shut up Kyle!!! (Cartman voice)

 

[ZeroGame]

Hey GameStop insider question, do online orders show up on the cashier computer system's end where they would show up in your last 5/6 order history?

 

[dav2sil]

Fyi. Gamestop will only hold switch preorders till Saturday, even if they are already paid.

Read the thread and you'll find out when stealth bumps typically happen no hoping and maybes required

I know when they happen, I also know it's not a science and sometimes things pop in randomly in a fortunate series of events. Like all the good boomerang options this past week. Hence hope, if it happens great if it doesn't oh well. Not sure why you got so triggered by that.

relax dude. go work

 

[KingofGames]

Maybe a Switch launch weekend stealth bump?! Make it happen, Gamestop!

It's the freaking internet man. Chill out and just brush off anything that's upsetting you. You don't have to be perfect and win any argument. Nobody cares about your internet street cred. The Last word doesn't mean shit.

 

[blackbeard4886]

Some boomerangs with the B2G1 if you can find the right combo of games. It is on the sheets on a new tab.

If gamestop isn't taking anymore preorders for the switch how do you trade in a Wii (for the extra $25) towards a switch preorder??

If you already have a Switch preordered (and not completely paid off) or you trade in the Wii/3DS when you buy a Switch when it comes out on the 3rd.

Absolutely true. Not sure why so many people are triggered by your comment

wait I thought it didnt end for the 50% bonus for switch so why do the spread sheets say 40 % ? . The top 3 tivs should be 41.25 with the 50 % making the cost be 90 for the three games and getting back 123.75 ? making it a 33.75 profit ?

No, they shouldn't.

It went from 50% +10% PUR to 40% + 10% PUR starting yesterday. Also the stealth bump is over.

 

[Xellos2099]

Today is the last day the $5 bonus coupon work right?

 

[dennisb407]

Blackbeard can you add a tab for the daily cash 3 lotto numbers

 

[NoOtherOptions]

Correct although IIRC it may work after today but the posted expiration is today so YMMV on clerks taking it

 

[Nick51705]

He's been holding back the best flip of all

 

[blackbeard4886]

More stores got shipments of the BOTW SE

I need the sheet to tell me which Scratch-offs have the best odds of winning. Listed by value, and by distance to my house. I need that yesterday!

 

[blackbeard4886]

I actually got a hit on the BOTW ME

*Edit-How many minutes before it mysteriously "disappears". TBH how many store managers are going to even let that hit the floor.

 

[charlie3000k]

If you don't know your stores "store number" it is located at the top of your receipt. Across from the date and time , drop the zero off the first number before the backslash and that's the store number.

 

[lildirtygamer]

http://www.gamestop.com/trade#!/games "PUR PRO Members Get
40% Extra Credit Toward New Games"

The fine print doesn't mention any specific games like the 20% one does, so I'm guessing this means any game that isn't pre-owned?

And apparently PS2 games can't be traded in from the looks of things.

I find it strange that PS2 games can't be traded in. They take the systems in trade for $45, but don't actually sell them. The store associate at the first store I went to yesterday said that they have a very limited list of retro items that can be traded in at that store (and I guess others as well).

i was looking for the values of gba system cant find them on the website  , anyone knows the TIV on those?

Search 'Game Boy' under the console section in the app.

Not sure about the site as 'Game Boy%' just defaults to the gray brick.

Edit:
GBA OG $17.50 base (credit)
GBA SP $20.00 base (credit)

Its stems from the fact that the PS2 library was so huge and with HD remasters and PS Now Streaming (bah!) GS can't be bothered to devote online or store space to PS2 games. It's a shame, because PS2 had some great cover art!

*Edit-How many minutes before it mysteriously "disappears". TBH how many store managers are going to even let that hit the floor.

Guaranteed to not be on the floor. The NES Classic was one example. Also, employees can call dibs on traded games from customers that are in good condition. They can put it to the side and not have to deal with the "peel the GS price sticker" bs.
