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='bokiloki']Does trading in a system for the wii u stack up with the 30% hardware bonus that is being offered right now. Got an old xbox 360 that I have been meaning to upgrade for awhile. Trading it in for 90 bucks plus the 30% hardware trade bonus would be a sweet deal. Will that work or should I just call to make sure???[/QUOTE]

Nah, it doesn't stack. The only thing that does is a flat bonus of $10 if you are a PUR member.
 
[quote name='Midboss']Woops! put in the wrong value on the adapter, was actually 32.00. Still a lot more than the last recorded value.
All of the accessories I had ended up being worth about twice as much as the OP. Needless to say I was pleasantly surprised. I ended up getting almost $45 after bonuses on the adapter too.[/QUOTE]
What bonus was applied to the adapter? Is there a trade in deal on accessories?

I was told today that you can only trade in one PS3 controller per store per day.

I said so what, I have to preorder 3 games to trade in all three with the 30%.

he said no, just come tomorrow and they can see you made the preorder and we'll give you the 30%. Then you can go to a nearby GS and trade the other controller and get 30% as well since we can see on your PUR than you preordered. This was near closing so I couldn't do it that night.

That seems weird to me, I had no problems trading in two controllers before. He also said he'd let me just out $5 down, but I want to get Borderands 2 anyways for the preoder bonus so I just put all of my tiv on it.

Guess I have to go tomorrow and trade in a DS3 to one store and a Sixaxis to another and hope his story wasn't BS about not having to preorder again. I got his name so I'll personally tell his manager to cancel my preorder I made with him and tell him why I did so.

Damn this sucks. Might have to stop procrastinating and start trading these controllers in. I can see them changing the promo/ dropping the value real soon.

I traded in 2 PS3 controllers, 2 old Wii controllers and 2 360 wireless controllers at a single store tonight...put 5 on pikmin 3.

He had to scan the barcode in again after I signed for it and then it seemed to work no problem.

Also traded in earlier today with the 50% pur coupon(had to preorder something else ugh; I did notice I got the bonus before he added a pre order on).

I'm not sure that last part is true. When they bring up your PUR account, they can only see preorders made at that particular store. I'm pretty sure they can see purchases made at other stores but not preorder deposits.

Only GotY/Ultimate versions with extra content on the disk get more credit, that's why they're listed seperately in the OP (Fallout, Borderlands, Dragon Age, etc.)
 
[quote name='Midboss']I didn't even have to think twice about trading in my 360, since the games I bought were multiplats and I just ended up buying them on my PS3 instead. I actually hadn't even plugged in my xbox since I last moved a year and a half ago. Heck, I only had 3 games for the thing.

I will say I am not sure if I want to actually get a WiiU or not, but nothing stopping me from getting a good trade in now and just canceling the pre-order later depending on what I decide.[/QUOTE]

I'm thinking about trading in my 360, but I have no interest in the wii u, cancelling the preorder later wont affect my credit it any way would it? I wouldn't think they would even track it but I'm wondering if anyone knows for sure.
 
Just traded in a few more things today.

:ps3:
Sixaxis - $18
DualShock3 - $30
HDMI cable - $4

She had me apply the total to two pre-orders, one of which I don't want. Do I have to wait until the game releases to cancel? Or can I cancel the pre-order tomorrow and still get the 30% bonus trade amount?

This is very YMMV, but I was in a GS in Puerto Rico and I saw that the EA cards are $5 off, or $15 for a $20 card. Hopefully this deal is available elsewhere because GS PR is generally pretty good about following US deals.

I dont think people are really flipping but rather are just getting rid of extra/older controllers for good money since BBY/Target/AMZN has had sales on them for $40-45 new lately and we might see them as low as $35 before X-mas

Hey I am not sure if people reported this but the 30% Power Trade that works on accessories, hardware and ipod stuff is Promo #13626. Hopefully that can help some of you having problems with GS employess giving you a hard time. Also, according to the website that promo is good till 12/16/12
 
If gs is stopping taking preorders on wii u does that mean no more bonus system trade in promo can be applied to your wii u preorder?
 
went to a gamestop that rejected one of my wireless 360 remotes because the joystick rubber was knicked, 1 cm piece was missing tops. So I just went to the one across the street, 0.05 miles away and they accepted both, paid full amount toward nsmb wii u, then the employee moved the rest of the credit went towards wii u pre-order. Out of pocket was 21.99 for the 32 gig bundle. I am wondering now if they will charge me tax for the mario game. When I asked the employee about it he repeated twice, its "completely paid off." I'm sure he can't possibly be right but im just trying to see what other peoples experiences were...
 
^If you've paid the full amount using your store credit, then you've paid the full amount. It's over and done with. They can't tack on charges for a completed transaction that is paid off in full regardless of it was tax free or not. In some places, using store credit for an entire purchase will secure the purchase without tax. It's that way in Georgia which serves as an added perk to using store credit.
 
Dunno if it's been mentioned, but the extra 25% for trading four games appears to be active. Got it whilst trading towards existing preorders and getting my Neo Geo X Gold deposit down.

External 20GB HD - $3.75
Network N Adapter (No disc needed) - $32
Rechargeable Battery Pack - $1.50
Play & Charge Kit - $4
360 wireless controller - $22.50

I think I came out okay. With promos I ended up trading the 360 and games/accessories for about $325. The employee let me just put $5 down on NSMB wiiU and get the 30% bonus. Also when I got in there they told me they were going to stop taking preorders for the 32GB wiiU within the hour so I was pretty lucky. Ended up paying off the wiiU and $5 on Mario. Pretty excited. I had no plans on getting the new Wii but I have a couple months to do some research and make sure it is what I want. I mostly play PS3 these days so the 360 was collecting dust anyways.
