Just a heads up:

A new Wal-Mart opened near me and they were carrying a 3pack of racing games for $10 for the PS2. Games were Corvette, Ford Racing and some other racer.

More than likely these are crappy games, however for those needing games to trade in for a promo at say, GameRush, this should probably come in handy.
 
[quote name='RandyTsai'][quote name='doraemonkerpal'][quote name='rafissaying']does anyone know if that trade 3 get and used game for $10 is going to be good at all GR's or just certain locations?[/quote]

i dunno about the rest of America, but the guy at my socal location said it'll be in effect if that's what you were wondering :)[/quote]

Which GR did you go to?[/quote]

i went to the one in anaheim on lincoln/brookhurst. :)
 
I knew EB pissing me off would push me away, but damn if GR isn't taking me with open arms. fuckers wouldn't let me can my Halo2 preorder because I used a promotion to do it. I'll cancel my other reserves and buy shitty games to take to GR.
 
My roomate just got a coupon in the mail from Blockbuster for trade in 1 used game, get Halo 2 for 29.99 , will try to get scans of it up as soon as possilble.

Damn that would be hot!
 
Does anyones GR get new release on Tuesday mornings, or will I have to wait until Wednesday or Thursday to pick up Third Age and Raw vs Smackdown?

If I did that I'd probably just eBay it, I've already got the LE preordered for $38.
 
To sj41:

On 11/9 the following promotions begin and will run until 1/10:

***Trade any 3 PS1, PS2, GCN, XBox, or GBA games, get any used game for $10.***

I have heard this is only going to be going on in California and will NOT apply to gamerushes in Texas, etc.
 
Keep an eye on you mail. Coupons should be coming in the mail for some deals on new games such as the $20 off with trade coupon in the past.

Well, in that case, I'm dissapointed. :( I'll change it now, but god do I wish that it was available in all areas. :(
 
According to the Gamerush Operations Manual, the trade 3, get any PO game for $10 will be good in all markets. I'll double-check when I go in tomorrow afternoon, but I read it in print and my store has got the barcodes for the promotion.
 
[quote name='ksuwild25']Is the buy 2 used games get 1 free going to available to everyone, or is that just California too?[/quote]

i think that should be everywhere because its replacing the buy one PO and get one half off
 
[quote name='drfrielgood']

Buy 2 used games, get any used game for free. This temporarily takes the place of the buy 1, get 1 half off deal.[/quote]

Thanks for the info. I'd just like to check though, is there any kind of "free game must be equal or lesser value of other two games" clause here? Because this deal seems like its waaaay open to abuse, e.g. buy Mace Griffin and Turok from them for $5.99 each, and get a free used GTA San Andreas. (And then of course, twist the knife by trading Mace and Turok back to them).

Isn't that pretty much a given. Even the computer would ring up the cheapest free most likely....damn people

Goes without saying. I'm thinking FSW, Metal Slug 3, and somehting else...
 
[quote name='cyberlian']I called today and they said that $8 dvds ended yesterday... anyone think it will be back in the future?[/quote]

Not anytime soon I'm sure....I'm sure they will assess what happened and go from there. I'm sure some stores are overrun with crap-tacular titles.
 
Just to double check, these 2 deals should be good until 11/8?

1) Get an extra 50% trade credit on select contollers, memory cards and remotes.

2) Trade 3 used games in get $5 additional credit on each trade.
 
I doubt BB will do the $8 trade in anytime soon. The manager said they got loaded with so many crap old movies they don't have room for all of them.
 
FYI for everyone with all of that credit. I pre-ordered the nintendo DS the other day and they said that Gamerush stores are only letting 5 pre-orders total per store on a first come first serve basis. I just thought everyone should know since thats what i planned on using some of my credit on.
 
GR are getting as many nintendo DS as they preorder but the ones that don't preorder more than 5 just get 5. at least that is what the CR at my local GR told me
 
I have a question about the $5 extra on each game traded deal.

I went today to trade my ps1 games for the extra $3 per game, but looking at the receipt, I didn't get the extra $3 on two of the games. I only traded in 8 games total, not 10, so did the guy at BB make a mistake or was the rule changed?

God I hope it is. any California GameRush employees that can check as well? Haven't seen anyone from California post about this. :)

If the trade-in value for a game plus the extra $3 is more than what GR will sell the game for, then you don't get the extra bucks. The only PS1 games that wouldn't qualify are those that they offer $.50 for (and sell for $2.99).

I dont know, for those 2 games, I got $1, and $1.50 credit. Is there any way I can go back and fix this?
 
The Blockbuster paperwork I've seen at my Gamerush lists the maximum preorders for the DS at 5. Also, though it states that the minimum deposit is $25 (this is how my store operates), the computer will not disallow lower amounts.

So what happened with this? I've got a crapload of old games to trade in.

That was a mistake. You should have gotten $3 extra for each game since they are PS1 games.

Then feel free to do so in front of the mirror. BTW I actually called my local Gamerush about this upcoming deal and they weren't aware of any restrictions. Of course its the computer system that calls the shots at Gamerush, so who knows. I didn't really think it'd be possible to trade in two lowball titles to get a bigger one for free, but it never hurts to ask.
 
[quote name='dinovelvet']...but it never hurts to ask.[/quote] You got made fun of by people on the internet. Didn't it hurt your feelings? :roll:

Is there anything I can do to get my $6? Is it too late to get this fixed? I still have the reciept, which seems to be my only hope.
 
for people that really abuse the deals at gamerush, do most of your gamerushes care if you come in with 10 old ps2 sports games and trade them all in at once. i really want to trade in like 3 madden 01, 3 madden 02, 3 nba live 01, and a copy of NBA shootout 2001. do you think i can get away with this or will they tell me only one copy of a game per day or something like that.

if they let me do this, it would kick ass because it would cost me like 20+tax, and i would get like 65 in credit.
