For something like that, you need to file a police report and provide proof that you originally purchased it, including a receipt showing that you purchased it along with that serial number on a receipt.

So.. short answer: No.
 
It's in the policy that they have to. Just tell them to bust out the book, it says anytime somebody wishes to buy something back that they traded it in they must "Promotion Not Found" it down to the trade in price. It's LEGIT under the trade in policy section, I nearly shit a brick when I read it.

I've been told this is only to be done when something was traded in by a little kid and the parents are pissed, but nowhere in the policy does it have any specific instances. The employee will probably be so shocked it actually says to do that they'll try to come up with every receipt they have and start buying all the stuff they traded in at one point.

That's what I did, anyway.

I had a friend who sold some of my N64 games and accessories a number of years ago, good ones, too (Goldeneye, Smash Bros., Gauntlet 64) and wasn't able to get them back because i was beyond the two week window of "buy-back". Had I known about the post above, that would have been helpful. Granted, I went about the situation all wrong (he had been borrowing them for about a year, should have had him go and get them back, rather than me, etc.). Live and learn - never lend anything to anyone. Ever.

It is in the policy, but my manager would never let it go down unless parents came in because a little kid traded his life away, etc. Any other employee would do it though, because it's in the policy and, well, fuck corporate.

I should also mention it says if the store has already sold the item you can have them call another store and go buy it back there instead.

I'm pretty sure it's a crushing moral blow that a person can not recover from. It's like waking up next to DarthBudge.

I think he might have burned him too badly. His grandchildren will be feeling that one.

Must've been a pretty weak friendship to end it over a PSP.
