This is the bump I've been waiting for. Only bad thing is, major Switch titles are only getting $27.

Are Pokemon Snap and MLB both G2L?

Going from memory from my visit to a store yesterday, I believe they both are as well as Returnal (with $10 Game Coin) and RE8/Village because I was thinking of preordering all of them.

I wonder if 27 is the new cap for major switch titles.

I have a bunch, but 35$ after boost trade in credit isn't super enticing

So does GameStop not take Demon's Souls (PS5) or is there something wrong with the website?

Something's wrong with the website. I was able to get a trade quote from the store, but it's been a few months and likely has changed.

The only store within about an hour of me is having "computer" issues and is closed until further notice. Has anyone seen anything like this before? How long has it taken to get fixed? I hope it's taken care of before the bump ends.

The website doesn't show any games that are out of stock. That means you can't check the trade values for those games either. I haven't tried the app - maybe it's different there.

I thinks it's just games that don't have a used listing on their site. Xenoblade chronicles 2, for example, is out of stock, but you can still check its trade value.

Is there anyway to sign up for these MWT emails anymore? Clearly before my time and I can't seem to find anything useful on their site as usual.  :robot:

It seems completely random, I only started receiving them this year. You really aren't missing much. It's just more email clutter. My subject lines have gone from (January) 6 items worth 113.30 to (Feb) 32 worth 444.40 to (Mar) 67 worth 1083.50 to (Apr) 130 items worth 2249.50. :bouncy:

 

Patience pays off with sports titles and the last rash of sales + 50% off. Lots of titles that fell to $5 TIV during the +5 promo (because they were ON SALE) $9-10 Madden, FIFA and NHL are all worth $26 after 30% trade bonus.

RE2, Kingdoms of Amalur Rereckoning, Destroy All Humans, Star Wars Squadrons, Assassins Creed III Remastered, etc. recovered now that they are no longer on sale. MK11, NFS:Heat, SW Jedi Fallen Order, etc won't get you max value while they are on sale this week.

All but one game in my email got the bump, and one game is only showing the PS5 version. I'll likely trade them to get PlayStation store bucks. There's some games I want to buy before Sony shuts down the PS3 and Vita stores.

I'll list the two games shown in my email:

PGA Tour 2K21 (Xbox One) - $16.50 according to email, currently showing $9.00 on site and app.

Spider-Man Miles Morales (PS4) - $27.50 according to email, only shows PS5 version on site and app.

Hyrule Warriors Definitive Ed. and Fire Emblem Three Houses are both getting $30 base.

Judging by the email I got, $27 base.

Thank you my good man for posting this. I've been waiting to trade in my copy of Miles (ps4) for awhile. Once I saw that the ps5 version was only netting $18 I gave up, but lo and behold, the ps4 version did indeed trade for $25 base. Why, I don't know but I'll take it.

i would think ps4 versions should be worth more since they can be used on both the ps4 and ps5

I thought about that but then look at Cold War for example. $27 PS4, compared to $30 for PS5. If I had to guess, perhaps less copies of Spiderman were made for the PS4 since Sony wanted to push it out as the game to buy immediately if you were a PS5 owner. None the less, I don't care. I'm $32.50 closer to fully paying off the inevitable Switch Pro.

You're welcome, I'm glad I could help. I still haven't played Spider-Man yet so I can let Miles Morales go for now. I may just buy it digital, hopefully while it's sale.

If you can wait til black friday, i'm sure there will be a deal then to scoop for cheap. I got two copies off a half off deal when it was on sale for like $4-5 each.

I can certainly wait until BF before buying Miles Morales again. There's other games I'm trading that I'll hold off on picking up again until then too.

$15.60 for Marvel's Avengers seems low compared to what it's been the last couple times there's been a bump. I could have sworn it was higher, but I can't recall how much the TIV was. Does anybody else know what it was previously? Obviously logic would dictate TIV is going to go down over time... but this is GS we're talking about.

 

Also my hopes and dreams of there being a $5 bonus TIC promo and a bump that coincide with games being bumped to $10 base doesn't seem to be coming to fruition, so I guess $13 TIC is good enough.

22 base TIV at 54.99 during 1/30 bump. 17 base during 2/19 bump. 

 

You have to look at the preowned selling price. It's on sale for 22.99. Hence the lower TIV. It's not going back to 54.99 so 15-17 might be the max base TIV in the future.

Vanilla Resident Evil 7 has the same trade value as the Gold edition at $11. Pretty nice TIV given that the vanilla version has been on sale for less pretty recently, and that they're both still only selling for @ $20. Gamestop must be expecting demand to increase with RE8 next month.

The website has updated again to list games that aren't in stock. You can check trade values for every game again.

I'm sure it will.  People always sleep on it then overpay for that stuff
