Haha same here. I try to take advatage of every deal or trade in oppurtunity that I can..
A lot of times there are some good values out there though. It's the only way I've been able to keep my gaming habit alive, lol. GCU and trading in games!

Yeah I think they did, my buddy was mentioning to me the other day how he had recieved one.
Yeah, I thought those 30% off coupons (supposed to be "buy 2 games, get 30% off" to be exact) expired quite some time ago in December of 2013. Did Target issue new ones since then?

I mean, I bought Beyond and Lego Marvel on Black Friday/Thanksgiving on Amazon for ~$30, and with the 100% trade in got basically that same value back last time. So essentially I played through both of those games for free. 100% can be good. Also I got $18 for Dragon's Dogma: DA, which I doubt you'll see anything close to anywhere else

You have to pick and choose on the bonus stuff. I was going to take a few games in last week for 100% but the values were lousy; I sold them all on Amazon within 24 hours and made at least twice as much per game as I would have gotten in trade. Sometimes, though, you can get some deals to align together and make the trade worth it.

Best you can hope for is the increase of total coupons from 8 to 20. They already have it under review my guess is that once he mag is gone the give the final word on the coupons overall. Allan has already stated with the increase in price of GCU that it`s fair for the existing benefits to be increased.Best Buy, please don't get rid of @gamer magazine. We should petition this to them!

Plus if they go thru with the customer review/feedback initiative we`ll have a chance to have a real say BEFORE changes are being set in place.

well you are comparing the TiV for new games 2 weeks ago against now.Not so anymore. The new games were netting around $40 after the 100%. Now the highest value for any game is only at $28. That is just pathetic.

Someone needs to make a game called "The Other Shoe" just so I can seriously say the phrase "waiting for The Other Shoe to drop."

They probably have plenty of X1/PS4 used games right now from trade ins.
I don't think $28 is that bad considering all the next gen games have been on sale for ~$40 new just about everywhere.

Does anyone recall if trade values typically tank across the board when the 100% bonus goes into effect? I know typically Tuesday is the day they tank individual values. I'm debating trading in some games now vs Sunday. Just concerned values will tank pretty bad if it happens across the board. I have quite a few games that trade in for 12 bucks that I paid 4 to 5 for. I'm hoping the values hold on Sunday and I can get $24 instead.

The ones below $5 typically don't tank. $10 and above, 95% chance they will. Those $12 bases won't be $12 when the 100% is there. $6-8 is your best bet.

Yup. I went to trade COD Ghosts PS4 2 weeks ago when they did 100% and initially I thought it dropped to $20 doubling to $40. However when I went it was $17 (dropped the TIV twice) doubling to $34. I was a bit annoyed since I do remember checking it a few days before. I was thinking of keeping $40 credit at BB and buying a $50 Kindle card with the other $40 I got a few weeks before that for KillZone. Decided to convert it all to Amazon credit though. The one game I want the most right now is Lego Marvel and neither of the 3 Best Buys I have been in since the PS4 launch has had a copy. They all seem to have more XBox One games as well. Figured I would have a better chance that Amazon would drop to $39.99 first since they did like 3 weeks ago but I missed the sale.
