Did you have any new items in your ordeR? I thought your whole order had to be used items to get saver shipping.

No, it used to be as long as you had 1 used item, the whole order got free shipping
 
For what it's worth, I'm also confirming it... SAVER did not work with either PPLAY15 or CAG15 for me. I put in a random used GBC cart and was unable to combine the two...

That certainly wasn't true. That's the main reason people would add $.99 used PS1 games to their order, so that they could get free shipping on new games as well.

This page has all their current promos listed. It did have SAVER listed to expire back on May 31 I believe but for some reason it still continued to work despite being removed from the page. Maybe they're just now remembering it was to expire?

[quote name='World of Games']i just put an an order in about 20 minutes ago and cag15 and saver worked just fine.[/QUOTE]

Hmm...maybe not...
 
I can't believe this. I ordered Kessen this morning and it worked fine, and just now I decided to go on and get Wipeout 3. But it is broken right now--hopefully its a fluke, but I doubt it. They "got smart".
 
[quote name='guest2']SAVER by itself worked for me... ?:|[/QUOTE]

Well, choosing between free shipping and a 15% discount on used merchandise will now involve some math skills, it looks like. :cry:
 
Man, this is horrible... I tried it with a used gamecube game and it seems like you can only combine SAVER with the EDGE card. Try to put CAG15 or PPLAY15 and you get the error message.
 
That's odd I just used a saver+cag15 combo last night (really late about 3 a.m.) seemed to work fine. Shame if they took it out I was saving quite a bit on my shipping.
 
oh great, and i was feeling better about quitting EB at the end of next month because i'd get the exact same deal as my employee discount online on pre-played games. this makes me miss the 15% employee discount again, hehe
 
Here is the pop up window you get when you try it:

You can not combine 'Free EB Saver shipping!' with 'Save 15% off Pre-Played Games!'

I blame it on the Gamestop merger...Hehe....

:lol:
 
If I remember right, this has happened before and it just took a couple days to sort it out and get the coupons working right again. Damn EBgames for not sending me my gift vouchers yet, now I'm going to have to get less with them.
 
[quote name='punqsux']untill/unless they reactivate the stacking coupons, they will lose a bunch of business[/QUOTE]

This means $5-10 dollars games are going to cost $7-12+ tax this sucks.

If you placing a big order and getting the 26% off. I guess 2 bucks for shipping is not that bad. I have noticed a big trend in a lot of places getting rid of free shipping. next is DDD I truly hope not though.
 
You also have to take into consideration that EBGames charges sales tax. They never used to.

That was one of the first things they got rid of.
 
They probably noticed that a ton of SAVER orders started getting shipped UPS and Fedex two day due to people adding the hardware... I guess this is their way of stopping it?
 
It worked for me this morning so i'm surprised at this thread starting yesterday. Has anyone else been successful in using it today? The way I look at it, shipping is normally $2, even if you buy a dollar game and get it for 85 cents plus tax, your only saving a dollar in the end, so don't everyone get there thong in a bunch. Besides I always end up buying a game that's two dollars anyway and usually I play it once and it takes up space so I won't miss it.
 
EB is a great service, but the sales tax kills the business. I am in TN with a .925% sales tax, and SAVER was the only thing to keep me going. Sure 2.00 may seem like nothing, but if I am buying 1 game for 9.99 or less, $2.00 is a TON! I will have to hold off and see what happens. Gamestop sucks and if this is the beginning of a marger, then I don't know where I will go!

Wow, I'm sad now. Heads are gonna roll at both eb games and gamestop. I'm calling the General Manager now.

heads are gonna roll ? you're just calling them...... like they'd be scared
 
Seems to be back working. Yea!

edit:
Just did 2 seperate orders:

120027 1 $1.49 $1.49 PS Jupiter Strike - Pre-Played (PS1)
194791 1 $0.99 $0.99 PO Roadblasters - Pre-Played (NES)

&

181982 1 $6.99 $6.99 PS2 Gran Turismo 3 A-spec - Pre-Played
194649 1 $5.99 $5.99 PO Mega Man 3 - Pre-Played (NES)

And had no problems stacking codes/discounts.
 
It works, just not every time you try for some reason. I got all the codes to stack on my third order attempt on one used NES cart. The codes worked in this order:

PPlay15 (CAG15 may have worked as welll)
Saver
Edge card #

On my first attempt I tried Saver, then CAG15 and it said I could not use the codes together. My second attempt I tried Saver, PPlay15, then edge. I was able to put all the codes in, but when I hit proceed a box popped saying my order was not approved by the manager. My third attempt is above and it went through.

Numsay
 
Could you update the OP to say that it is working again. A resolution could have technically gone either way (it could have officially died.)
 
[quote name='GAMGAM007']Still not working for me :([/QUOTE]

same here, CAG15 and PPLAY15 stack but SAVER says it has not been approved by a manager? i'm trying to get a game and a memory card, what are they requirements for using SAVER?
