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

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.
5.gif

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.

just got an email from gamestop saying you get at least $100 trade in credit for a 360 towards a new 360, i also have a coupon from power up rewards that gives me an extra $50 credit when trading in a 360. Do you think these will stack and i can get $150 credit trading in my old 360
 
[quote name='Friend of Sonic']Wow, glad I dumped all of my Steeldiver games.[/QUOTE]

+1 And nintendogs and pilot wings. Hopefully motorstorm will hold its value.
 
Motorstorm Apocalypse fell to 14 today. Sims 3 3ds fell to 6. Still got $30 for both on my $10 investment(which was actually in reward zone credit).
 
These are from 12/27 so not sure if anythings changed:

Monster Tale DS - $5
Cooking Mama DS - $3
Vanquish PS3 - $5
Kirby's Epic Yarn Wii - $3
FlingSmash Wii - $2
Game Party 2 Wii - $6
Sims 2 Castaway Wii - $8
Lego Star Wars III Xbox - $5

Despite the cashier telling me I'd get the 50% bonus and so a "better deal" (he was wrong, I had already done the math) the computer automatically gave me the trade 3 get $10 deal which overall was the better deal since I traded them all in at once.

Very basically if your base value is roughly $6.50 or less, you want the trade 3 get $10 deal. If it's $7 or more, you want the 50% bonus. I dont know if the computer knows this or not but it's probably good to know this yourself before going in.
 
From today:

Saints Row: The Third (360): $21.00

The 50% bonus was automatic, and kicked in before they scanned the pre-owned game I was getting.
 
12/23:
360:
Blood Stone 007 - $7
Two Worlds 2 - $3
Lego Harry Potter: Years 1-4 - $6
Dead to Rights: Retribution - $7
Wii:
Disney's Epic Mickey $9
PS3:
Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2 $8

12/27:
Wii:
NBA JAM - $5
PS3:
Dead Space - $6
Bulletstorm - $5

12/28:
PS3:
Transformers: War for Cybertron - $6
Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - $6
Wii:
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Smash-Up - $5

I wonder if you can get away with just trading them in for an extra 50% without having to apply towards a used game and save the credit for later.
 
[quote name='Slowdance']Is there a $2 minimum for the trade 3 get $10 deal? I noticed UFC 2009 was only $1 last time it was posted.[/QUOTE]

Yes, read first post.

[quote name='Kendro']I wonder if you can get away with just trading them in for an extra 50% without having to apply towards a used game and save the credit for later.[/QUOTE]

Just trade towards a 99 cent game
 
Here are some values from this afternoon; luckily, the 50% seemed to auto-apply before they scanned my B2G1 games, so I didn't have any issues with getting the 3/$10 promo instead.

3DS:
Driver Renegade-$6.00
Madden NFL-$6.00
Nintendogs (all 3 versions)-$10
Pilotwings-$9
Samurai Warriors Chronicles-$5.00
Sims 3-$6.00

NDS:
Dragon Quest IX-$6.00

PS3:
Dead to Rights Retribution-$7.00
Motorstorm Apocalypse-$14.00

360:
Bloodstone 007-$6.00
FEAR 3-$7.00
Green Lantern-$6.00
Transformers DoTM-$10.00

Wii:
Mario Party 8-$13.00

Not bad at all; it looks like some of the BB DoTD flips are slowing dropping, and I completely forgot to throw a copy of Steel Diver in there to get an updated value on that. Still not bad with the 50%, though...managed to get 2x Dead Island LE, Rage, NFS Hot Pursuit, Deus Ex, and Rayman Origins for about $108 total, so still almost $100 to do some damage with. ...Too bad I just managed to make it out on the last day of the B2G1 sale.

Terms and conditions of the coupon says "Cannot be combined with any other offer," so it would be a long shot. You can still try it and see what happens but you probably won't get the 3500 points back.
 
I went to purchase some games today. I had to do a return first so they were doing the return and another guy behind the counter told me I need to take it easy on returns, he said my account is flagged and all the stores know about it. I politely asked him how he knew that since I had yet to give him my PUR card for them to see my account. I was a little upset about the comment so I just bluntly said "Since you havent seen my account yet you must have flagged it yourself which is funny because I have only traded in 3 games to your store but I have purchased alot of them here. As far as return go am I doing something outside of your return policy? If not then you have no grounds to tell me or physically red flag my account. This is the first return I have done at your store and I have done one return at another store. That is all the returns I have made to Gamestop in my life." What a dickhead.

I have only flipped 9 copies of Nintendogs to Gamestop but to 3 different stores within 1 hour of where I live. The store in question I have made 2 trade ins to #1 (3 Nintendogs) #2 (Pilotwings, Steel Diver, and random game from collection to get 3/$10 deal). I just moved to the area in August how could I have been such a bad customer that they would want to keep me away. Yet I have over 30,000 points on my power up card and have 54.00 in credit to spend.
 
Current ad shows $100 trade in for xbox towards a new xbox and also shows a $75 gift card for buying a 250g version. Do you think that these will stack?
 
[quote name='dinovelvet']:)[/QUOTE]

Right, but he did say they said to take it easy on returns, not trade-ins... Assuming everything was communicated correctly from the GS clerk to him, and then to us, that is kind of odd.

Anyway, sgaldis - thanks for the update. I guess I'm done with the GS trade-ins for now. I kind of screwed up last night in that I forgot to bring some stuff with me. But at least I got it done then and didn't wait until today! Also, I had no idea Sims 3 had been more than $6. I had searched through here a few days ago and never saw a post for it so I assumed it was worthless (I think at the time the value in the OP was from a month or two ago).

Oh well, I still did pretty good. I was actually down to about $3 in GS credit before the 50% bonus a few weeks back. Now I'm back to having a healthy cushion. It's funny, because I actually felt a little anxious having so little credit left - now I can relax once again ;).

If you mean buying it from BestBuy and returning it to Target w/o receipt to get Target GC, that would be considered fraud and as far as I know such action is not quite tolerated here in CAG.

WWE Smackdown VS Raw 2011 - $8

I traded in the games to buy 2 Dead Island's for myself and my GF and asked if they had any in stock with art/case/etc. I luckily scored one special edition with unclaimed Ripper and Arena DLCs that was apparently traded in earlier today according to the cashier! I was pleasantly surprised.

Well, I called the GS that I usually go to and the manager has confirmed that it will stack. I will head out there tonight and trade in my 3 yr old white xbox 360 towards a holiday bundle. I will let you guys know.

[quote name='Jav0r']What is needed to trade in the Xbox 360?[/QUOTE]

The manager said, all I need is the console, power brick and cable, AV cable(not hdmi cable) and a controller.
 
The gears 360 is 299.99 right ? I could flip my current 4 gig slim for at least 100 to make the cost 199.99 then use my 209$ credit on my gamestop card to pay it and then gamestop gives me back 75 of those credits with that gift card. All together Ill be paying 125 when you think about it. tempting

You can trade in your hard drive for like $5 more, but not needed.
 
Is the AC:Revelations $30 promo still valid? I saw someone post a TIV so I was wondering whether or not it got ditched. MSRP still appears to be 59.99.

[quote name='nas6034']Does gamestop ever increase the tiv on a game? If yes, can anyone name/show any examples.[/QUOTE]

Usually if base TIV goes up it does not go up by much. It really depends on the current selling price and inventory levels. If the game is popular enough and inventory is low selling price and TIV can go up. Though this is an odd request, I can name one good exception that comes to mind.

Call of duty: Modern Warfare 2 base TIV hit a low of about $4 back in late 2010 a few months after Black Ops came out. (This was also around the time that they had the PS3 version on sale for $9.99 used) the base TIV then went up to $10 or more by late spring when the game was selling for $29.99 or more used. As you can see in the OP the most recent reported base TIV has since fallen to $5.

Other games I have seen this happen with is Uncharted 1 & 2

The only game I see having a significant increase in TIV in the near future is Rayman: Origins since it has been on sale a lot lately and used stock is very low so if retail goes back to the 40-50 range, TIV will likely increase from the $9 that someone was quoted the other day.

Does GS usually mark up their games when they have the B2G1 sale?

I stopped in the "new" GS that opened recently right near me and it seems like a few of the cheaper games suddenly went up in price.

I could swear that I saw Vanquish in there a few weeks ago for either $14.99 or $9.99 and now it's almost $17.99? And Tron Evolution was going for $14.99, and now it's $24.99?
 
[quote name='Tsel']And Transformers was $13. A lot of the BB DOTD games seem to be dropping rapidly. I might have to go in tomorrow before they drop anymore.[/QUOTE]

Really ? That sucks ! I hope gs isnt keeping track of the bestbuy dotd's like bestbuy does with gamefly's sales :(

I am assuming yes, you get at least $100 for the trade in of a used 360 and the $75GC with the purchase of a 250gig system cause of the "&" . Was gonna try to confirm, but I got the email late and did not want to stroll in the store 10 mins before close[/QUOTE]


So I didn't get the email with that ad and the regular ad on the website states only the GC. Is this a targeted promo, as in, is there a special code or something? Is it PUR Pro members only? I'm assuming its good until 1/3 like the ad states for the $75 GC. I was going to get rid of my back up old white xbox anyways and this seems like a good alternative.
