DO NOT POST IN NEW THREAD UNTIL I HAVE FIRST 6 POSTS TAKEN OVER.
NEW THREAD HERE: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/showthread.php?p=9832580

WHEN REPORTING TRADE-IN VALUES PLEASE POST BASE VALUES & SYSTEM IT IS FOR.

First post contains promo information & useful information and frequently asked questions. The second post is blank currently but is there for expansion or to revert back to the way things were. Third post has the 360/Wii/PS3 values. Fourth post has the PS2/GC values. Fifth post has DS/PSP values. Sixth post has hardware/accessory values for all systems.

Instructions on finding games in the database and inputting the values from different sections can be found in my blog post here: http://www.cheapassgamer.com/forums/blog.php?b=14143. I would put the entire post in the thread but this is already kind of a large post.

FAQ
These trade-in values are really low!
While that may be true, if you combine the games with the right promotion they can work to your advantage. There are knowledgeable people in this thread that are normally willing to help.

Is there any way to look at what the previous values reported on a game?
You can search through this thread and previous ones to see what a game has been reported in the past. With the TIV Tracker you can sort by date and then go through the list of past updated values through that as well. Here are the previous GS TIV Threads: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15

Can I trade-in sealed games?
No. You might come across the rare GameStop that would let you do it, but they are going to open them anyway.

I don't want to get hassled about the values I post, how can I get the information out there?
If you do not feel comfortable or willing to put the values in the thread you have two options available. You can input them in the TIV tracker or you can send them to me via PM. Either way the database and these lists will be updated. Putting them into the TIV tracker does save me some time later on.

Do trade-ins have to have their original case, insert and manual?
No, however it will be YMMV on if they charge you a refurbish fee for them in that condition. Most GameStops wont charge a fee but there are some that charge for incomplete games.

Will they accept my game if it is really beat up?
YMMV. It really all depends upon the employee you get. Some will charge refurbish fees, some wont, some wont accept the game and others just take them without a second glance.

What are the refurb fees on games?
There appears to be set prices for set value ranges. We aren't 100% certain on the splits just yet. Here is what we have currently:
$0.25-$2 Value: $0.75 Refurb Fee
$2.01-$4 Value: $1 Refurb Fee
$4.01-$7 Value: $2 Refurb Fee
$7.01-$10 Value: $3 Refurb Fee
$10.01 & Higher Value: $4 Refurb Fee
This information isn't guaranteed by any mean and we are still working on nailing it down.

What are the refurb fees on consoles?
They are listed in the hardware TIV section, highlight in red.

I have a Collector's/Limited/Special edition of a game, do I have to trade-in all of the extras?
No, but there are a handful of games that their variations have separate listings at GameStop: Madden 09 Anniversary Edition, Battlefield: Bad Company Gold Edition, and a few others.

Why didn't the percent bonus go for my accessory for a system that was included?
Unless stated otherwise, and they are rarely included, the bonuses never apply to accessories. Except the EDGE card of course.

I traded in a bunch of games for the "Trade X, get $X bonus" promo and it gave me the percentage bonus instead?
I can't give concretes on why this happens. GameStop computers are normally pretty good at giving you the better promo. In the case of a percentage bonus being run at the same time as a "Trade X, get $X" promo, things can get messy. The system appears to only give one promo on games per transaction so if you had a few games that you want to go to the percentage bonus and a stack for the "Trade X, Get $X" it will regularly apply the percentage to all of the games. Your best bet is to do all "Trade X, Get $X" games in one transaction on their own. The GameStop clerk may say that the system will figure it all out, tell them you want a separate transaction anyway. As always, check your receipt before you leave the store.

Can I trade in multiple copies of the same game?
YMMV. The official policy is no, but there are some GameStops that overlook that rule.

What all do I have to trade in for a console trade-in?
Xbox 360: Console Unit, power brick, A/V Cables, Controller (wired/wireless)
Wii: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cables, Wiimote, Nunchuck, Sensor Bar
Playstation 3: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cable, Controller, USB Cable
Playstation 2: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cable, Controller (Must be a DualShock2) *Fat unit requires either back cover or network adapter*
GameCube: Console Unit, Power Cable, A/V Cable, Controller
PSP: Handheld, A/C Adapter
Nintendo DS/DSLite/DSi: Handheld, A/C Adapter, Stylus

Can I trade in a defective/broken console?
For the most part yes. If it powers on but doesn't play games, they will take the console as a refurb unit and put a refurb fee on the console. The refurb fee on the console will vary on the price of the console so those numbers will change. You are still required to trade in everything required listed in the question directly above. They will not, however, take RROD 360 consoles. There may be stores that still do it, but official policy is to not take them in.

What is the difference between PowerUp Rewards and PowerUp Rewards Pro?
The basic card is free and only allows you to acrew points when spending money. The Pro card costs $14.99 and is basically the same as the previous EDGE program.

How much does a PowerUp Rewards Pro subscription cost?
It costs $14.99 and is good for a year. It also comes with a 1-year subscription to Game Informer magazine.

What bonuses come with having an PowerUp Rewards Pro card?
You will get an extra 10% trade-in credit on the base value of the game, extra 10% off the purchase of pre-owned games and 10% off new strategy guides.

Does the Power Up Rewards Card give me a bonus on hardware trade-ins?
No. You will only get the bonus for games and accessories.

What if I want cash instead of credit, what do they deduct?
If you decide that you want cash instead of credit, they will take 20% off the base values and promos will not apply.

Does promo "....." have a minimum trade-in value?
If the promo has a minimum trade-in value requirement, it will be listed in the promo. If it isn't there, then there is no limit. However, as with all trades, they are subject to manager approval so the manager could have setup his own little rule-set requiring a minimum of whatever.

I used a Power Trade promo for a pre-order, can I cancel that pre-order and get the credit or move it to another game I want?
Yes on both accounts. However, if you do a bunch of the power trades and just straight drop the pre-order you could create some ill-will between yourself and the employees you cancel on. However, if you look at the wordings on promos, they can remove the bonus trade-in value if they decide to.

I just tried to use a promo that has a select list of games eligible, but they say my game isn't eligible anymore, what gives?
Basically they have the right to change the eligible games at any time. They tend to update these frequently so as to lock out any easy/cheap games. It's best to check the eligible list the day of your trade.

Can I stack two different trade-in promos?
No. The only thing that will stack with trade-ins is your EDGE card. Some will report success, but this requires a manual override and is very YMMV.

If I pay for an item using all credit on my card, do I have to pay sales tax?
This varies depending upon the state you live in.

What states charge sales tax on purchases paid in full with credit and which ones don't?
Charge Sales Tax on Credit Purchases: Alabama, Arkansas, California, Connecticut, Florida, Hawaii, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Nevada, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, South Dakota, Tennessee, Utah, West Virginia
Does Not Charge Sales Tax on Credit Purchases: Alaska, Arizona, Colorado, Delaware, Georgia, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Dakota, Oregon, South Carolina, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, Washington, Wisconsin, Wyoming
No Information Yet:

My state doesn't charge sales tax on purchases made by credit, why is gamestop.com charging me tax?
It is just the way they have designed their system. The best theory we have seen is that since you are only inputting the number off of the back of the card, it isn't going to pick up the programming from the specially tagged EDGE cards. Some kind of programming that gets input from their system that wont show up when only inputting the number off the back of the card.

Hmm, I did have a few games left I could get rid of, but nothing to pair them with. Would it be frowned upon by a lot if I traded in a PS3 and 360 of both Borderlands and Fallout: New Vegas?

I have enough credit for both places that I could get them for pretty cheap and flip.

Was going to go to Best Buy because TiV's were about same with $35 bonus but BB has Amazon GC's. I just noticed The World End With You for DS is becoming rare and the Gamestop near me had one used one still for $20.

[quote name='XF Gator']Today on Bestbuy.com there's Fallout NV for $2.99 shipped or in-store.

GS TIV shows $3.00 and BB is $1.00.

Could be 7th game if you need one.[/QUOTE]

Perfect flip fodder, I'm holding resistance burning skies and I'm buying dragon age 2 from bestbuy with the coupon so this is nice ! I could buy 3 fallout new vegas and get an extra 25$ or just buy one and get 10$ extra
 
Today is the last day for the "trade in game towards this game and get 30%" promo. My question is: Can I trade amalur and witcher 2 towards max payne 3, get the 40% (after powerup), return the game and buy dragon's dogma on the spot with the returned credit?

I don't want the games in the offered deal and only want dragon's dogma.
 
Trades:
GR Advanced Warfighter 2 (PS3): $2.50
Borderlands (360): $7
99 Nights 2: (360): $3.50

Now this is very strange, but I got the $10 bonus, despite GRAW 2 earning only $2.50. Are not games with a TIV under $3 excluded. Someone please tell me what is going on here!

Today is the last day for the console promo trade-ins too.
I'm still on the fence about my 360 slim.
I kind of want to trade it in mostly because the power cord is very loose.
It's only a 4GB so this is probably the best trade-in value it's ever going to get.

The pain is waiting for a sale on it to rebuy it.

Thanks for all your work! The post was very helpful as I have a few of them to unload now that I know their TIV.
 
Oh wow thanks, I was considering trading in my God of War Collection...
Since it's extended till the 24th I'm going to replay it again before trading it in.
Hopefully TIV won't change in the next week or so.

Nice...traded in a bricked PS3 that I fixed to get data off and recouped my costs of fixing it. Luckily, the employee didn't check to see if the warranty seal was still on it.
 
Traded in 3 today (Sunday). These were the base values:

Tekken 6 (PS3): $7
Resistance 3: $9
Valkyria Chronicles: $6

Also got the xtra 10% and $10 for trading in 3 games.
 
Just one trade from yesterday (6/3):

360:
Max Payne 3 - $25

Traded it toward the pre-order of Lollipop Chainsaw for an extra 40%, giving me $35 total. My store was also giving an extra 30% (40% for PUR) toward the pre-order of LEGO Batman 2. If GS was giving away that Heroes DLC that Best Buy and Amazon are, I would have pre-ordered that as well. But the Ash skin for Lollipop Chainsaw is a good enough pre-order bonus for me.
 
Traded in some games yesterday. Did pretty well considering what I paid. Here is rundown.
All are 360 versions
Resident evil 5 normal edition. Base 6
Crysis 2 base 8
Borderlands normal edition base 6
Mass effect 2 base 7
Mass effect hits edition base 12
Rage 2.50. It did count towards trade 7 get 35 extra
The darkness first game base 3

After the bonus and 10 % pure extra
85.05 total

This was much better than best buy on these games. Big difference was mass effects where best buy offering only 4 for each.
 
Heads up, looks like they fixed the minimum. Just tried to trade a couple in that were at the $2 & $2.50 mark, but it only bumped up the ones over $3. He even turned his monitor so I could see his screen.

Knew I should have gone last night.

Someone prove me wrong please, so I can hit another GS lol.
 
NOOOOOH!!!!!

Damn the ending date change screwed me. Lol. I was ready to trade everything in this weekend but put it off. Instead I went to a bike swap yesterday and bought a 1960 schwinn and saw Wicked...man that's a good show!
