Not sure if this is needed, but a lot of people have either wanted the GS to BBY thread to remain GS to BBY or to be turned into a general flip thread. I decided to just see how this goes as like many cags I flip games from multiple stores, Amazon to BBY, BBY to GS, GS to BBY, Target to BBY, etc. So checking two or more threads becomes a bit annoying and a hassle when trying to find what other cags are posting. Thought this could also be a general info thread for new people wanting to try and flip.
Hopefully this can be just a source to pool the multiple threads together at least.
This thread will also be a wiki so go ahead and add/update all you want. I'll try to get it started with some flips from the current threads.
I tried to organize it the best I can. I put some general info in the second post for new CAGs that want to get into this. I kept the first post wiki for flip posting and the current deals going on.
PLEASE update the wiki whenever you can and add the date the flip was confirmed. I'll try to do this for the few posted right now.
FLIPS: These are posted as cost and TIV with no PUR/GCU bonus with platform as these do affect TIV. Not sure what the preferred format is so go ahead and change. Just tried to keep them simple for now. All prices are rounded to the nearest integer (so 17.99 = 18) and are USD. Also organized by cost to facilitate finding sets of 3 for B2G1 at GS and BBY.

Current Trade in Deals: These are what make flipping possible as most of the base trade in values do not result in profitable flips.
Best Buy:
B2G1 free on Preowned games (11/4-11/10): This is valid in store and online (in store pick up as well). Remember to order using the account that has your rewards zone with GCU to get 10% off online.
100% trade in bonus (ends ???): Basically double the base trade in value of any game traded in. The 10% GCU only counts towards the base so a $5 game would be $10.50 with the 100% deal and GCU
Gamestop:
50% trade in bonus when buying Sony Collections: 50% bonus when buying these games. You can buy the game and return it later to get the 50% bonus. There is also a 50% off the prices listed below coupon for PUR members (check you PUR account>active offers). It is one time use and not every PUR member got the coupon.
