Problem: 2 Broken PS2s. Need to get rid of them. EB Games? (Resolved)

Called EB Games today to ask them about the broken PS2 trade-in value. But they said I could only get $50 trade-in value for one at a time.
So, I was wondering, can I trade one in for store credit, THEN use the $50 trade in value?
I REALLY am desperate to get rid of these hunks of junk and get the smaller pstwo lump of dump.
Also, how much is the store credit, if they offer it?

One of the PS2s doesn't turn on because the button is busted and the other one doesn't spin the Cds, I also think the laser lens is shot.
Will EB take these, after all they ARE BROKEN.
 
if you haven't opened them I think they will

just go to one ebgames trade it in and go to another to trade in the other

may work
 
I have opened them. I asked the guy about the sticker being broken, he said that qualifies the system being 'broken'. The first one I tried to fix the stupid disc read errors on DVDs, then the on and off button didn't work. The second one I opened, but it broke later because I dropped it. (stupid controller cord!)

I don't have to do that, I could trade both at the same store, BUT each one goes toward a different purchase.
It's trade-in value: meaning I have to use the $50 right there toward my purchase.

The Free Repairs are only for Disc Read Errors.

Im sure you can make your ps2 get a disc read error... =)
 
Call GS .. I think they take broken PS2s. If you want cash I'll take them but for less than what they offer you. So you might wanna go the tradein route.
 
I finally got rid of the two PS2s.
The guy at EB was nice enough to give me $50 for EACH of them.
So that $100 went towards another PS2, used.
I also got a warrenty, for the first time in my life, 'cause knowing my luck this one will break down too. I hope it doesn't, though.
 
aww crap they expire tommorow! i could of got $50 for my broken gamecube.... do you think they will bring this back? or does anystores have this. i wont be able to make the journey to ebworld tommorow....
