First post contains promo information & useful information and frequently asked questions. Second post has the values for games for Microsoft devices. Third post has the values for games for Nintendo devices. Fourth post has the values for games for Sony devices. Fifth post hardware values. Sixth post is open for expansion/reorganization.

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, 16,,,,,,,,

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.

If I buy a used copy of a game that requires an online pass for multiplayer, will it come with an online pass?
If you purchase a used title published by either Sony or WB you get an online pass from GS on your receipt. That's also why the used copies are $55 instead of $48 when the MSRP is $60.

No GS issued passes of games published by EA, THQ, etc. On those titles you're totally dependent on the previous owner not using the code.

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.

[quote name='Fukurou']Darksiders is on that list? It sells for $5 at Best Buy for the 360. You could get 3 for $10 and then trade them in at Gamestop along with another game. Of course you'd have to do it 3 different times, since Gamestop won't accept more than 1 of the same game.[/QUOTE]

I know I saw someone else posting about it taking awhile for PowerUp points to post. I'm having that problem right now. Some of the games I traded in aren't showing up at all. Will the 360 and accessories I traded show up eventually? I rarely ever trade to GS, so I'm not familiar with the whole PU points deal.

there is also the fact that game is probably sold out like everywhere. at least in my area it is.

i did look through that list of eligiable games and so far i havent found any really good games to take advtange of it. you could spend 3 dollars or so get 3 games(B2G1) but youd need to have one game on hand to make that worthwhile so you could get borderlands 2 for roughly 30 dollars assuming gamestop will let you trade in 4 games on the list to get borderlands 2 for free.

though borderlands 1 is still in my backlog and i bought that sucker on launch day at a midnight launch

EDIT:

though if your best buys are anything like the ones in my area the used game selection is complete and total crap. its laughable how bad it is. and its not that there isnt shelf space or a good area for them it is just loaded from top to bottom with call of duty and a few other big name titles.
 
I'm not actually interested in Borderlands 2 right now. I'll get the $30, buy Borderlands 2 with it, then return it and get the credit back. I'll get Borderlands 2 when the price drops.

I wonder where the OP of that deal saw that. I would've really loved to jump on that deal :/
 
Well I fell victim to the 50% coupon strong arm. Lady and guy both insisted I had to use all the trade credit on pre-orders so I had $182 that went towards Hitman (which I wanted), Far Cry 3 (which I have at BBY already) and Bioshock: Infinite (which is forever from now). I am most likely just going to move them to more recent games and then buy and return. If this GS was not right next to my BBY I would never go back. The last 3-4 visits have been nothing but BS from them. I am going to the mall one more often now.

Yes - I did this exact trade myself last weekend. I also traded another Dual Shock 3 for Pikmin 3. It really isn't a bad deal considering new Dual Shock 3's are $54.99 at GS (without any sort of promo). I had a new one that I got cheap from Amazon via a bundle (that included a Ratchet & Clank game I think) and I still have 3 other older ones. The two I traded worked fine but were getting a ltitle worn out. So even if I end up having to buy new ones from GS for the full $55, $13 for a brand new replacement for 3-4 year old controllers isn't too bad (though for sure I'll keep my eyes peeled for another controller bundle deal - just looked it up: I had gotten the blue controller/R&C bundle for $36 from Amazon). I'm tempted to trade another one, actually, now. There just aren't any other games I'd want to put it towards so I'd have to do the cancel or switch thing later.
 
2 for $30 receipt scan
bpyDg.jpg

I used credit to buy Darksiders x2 & SWFUII from BBY for ~$12.50. I also picked up Dark Souls, L4D & RE5 for $34.81. I traded Darksiders & RE5 for 1 copy & SWFUII & Darksiders for another copy (different store). I did not have to come out of pocket because I had plenty of credit at BBY & GS. I will return both copies for a credit later. I will use the credit for a WII U title.

I turned $47.xx BBY credit into $76.8 GS credit & a copy of Dark Souls. It would have been $89.40, but I decided to keep Dark Souls. SWFUII :ps3: is not part of the promotion. The employee tried to stack 4 games on 1 order, but it did not work.

L4D $12 base
Dark Souls Quote :360: $9 base

this sucks. i was trying to trade in my psp go to amazon since they were offering nearly $70 for a "good" condition model. i sent it and they lowered the value to 20-something because it didn't come with the original packaging. the system itself is in great condition, "like-new" i would describe it as. i even threw in a protective skin just because i wouldn't have any use for it anyway. good thing i told them to send it back if they lowered the amount they'd give me. maybe i'll just take it to gs and put it towards nsmbu.

The clerk I normally deal w/ at GS knew about the promo. I told him what I wanted to do, and that's all it took. Originally, I tried to trade DSders, DSls, RE5 & SWFUII for 1 copy, but the system reduced the price of RE5 & SWFUII to $7 each. So, I went to the store down the street and did another trade.

So it is just automatic then. If I walk in with Darksiders and SWFUII and grab a copy of Borderlands it should just ring up at $30?
 
[quote name='GUNNM']That's part of the trade in. Its not like gamestop where you can only trade in the disc and expect to get full value.[/QUOTE]

i could see if it was supposed to be in "like new" condition (that would have netted me $80). "good" should be if the system is in good condition and you may or may not have the original packaging. the next option down is "acceptable", and in that case the system can be in crappy condition. why should i get $45 less just because of a stupid box? the psp itself is in great condition.

Yes.
 
[quote name='cancerman1120']Thanks![/QUOTE]

No problem. The promo number is 13820. If you experience any difficulties, the GS employee should be able to locate the deal by the promo number.
