So the coupon acts as an extra $5.00 in trade credit per title in 4 game increments?  I'm at work and it's distracting me from paying attention to what's really important in life - CAG.

Correct, as long as the game trades in for over $2 base.

Serious question why is Wii u excluded? It just says nex gen

 

[ThatCaveman]

I the $20 extra only for pro members?

It's weird, because they show the deal on the main trade in website. It doesn't state that you need to be a pro member for the offer...

 

[Bobby's World]

It was star wars. I didn't trade it in though. I had others I swapped it out for. It still would've been like 32 something trade in but also had black ops 3 and assassin's creed and those wouldn't be 30 even with the extra 5.

Star Wars' TIV is $27.50, so you'll get $32.50 with or without the coupon promo?

Is there any differences between Disney Infinity 2.0 on the ps3 and ps4? I already have the digital copy on my Wii U. The ps4 version has a $2 TIV

Yeah ill get 32.50, figure I'll try to sell it on CL first.

 

[bengi15]

any cheap xb1/ps4 title?? got two nfs and nfs rival need one more :/

I dont think you'll be able to trade 2 of the same title at the same time

 

[lusal]

I've got some games just collecting dust...but I should probably do some research on the values.  I don't want to lose money in the name of getting a $5.00 bump per title.

Just read the coupon...

"Items with a base trade value of $2 or less are not eligible."

There goes my hopes of getting rid of Madden 15 (PS4).

 

[Bombarded]

Anyone try to get the coupon scanned last?

 

[TooPoor]

If he has them for different platforms it should be fine, I think (?)

 

[matrix9280]

Wolfenstein Old Blood is looking like a candidate for some goodness.

Yeah that would have been super sweet.

I have two hours after work to hit 5 stores, come on let's go!!

Lol I realized after I submitted and didn't feel like editing it. Just trying to let him know quick that the boost requires a coupon , not everyone has 5 accounts.

[appleseed127]

Just got back from GameStop and they told me to get the guaranteed $30 in credit, I have to use it towards a new game or preorder. It's cool, I guess I could preorder something and go back the next day and cancel and get the credit back.

 

[ariel.rosales3]

Scanning the the $20 Extra coupon last does not give you the $30 credit. It gives you the standard trade in credit with an additional $5. I tried it with Until Dawn.

Why so? Why not just say 'I want to trade these games in' and let the transaction flow through.

When in doubt and you know more than they do, play dumb.

 

[chuckywang]

I see a promo for get $20 extra when you trade in 4 PS4 or XB1 games. Is there a minimum trade-in value that qualifies for this?

Minimum trade value has to be over $2.

 

[bengi15]

watch dog trade in 1.65 .

 

[no658ea3]

Just did 12 games and got $60 with the coupon. 

 

[bengi15]

i have two gs nearby, one let me trade 2 game, my last trade was 2 xbox 360 ac rogue. i will try to trade 2 nfs, nfs rival and sealed type0, if they dont let me i will trade switch one of the nfs to gamefly dying light( i havent touch the game at all lol.)

 

[chnandler_bong]

I'd like to take advantage of the extra $20 TIV for four games, but I'm struggling to come up with four games...

Gamestop won't take sealed games just fyi

 

[Raw_Orangejuice]

my trade ins require a little foot work, I have to pick up some 4 for 40s and use my b2g1. It will require me to go up 5 stores tonight. I have my route mapped out already

 

[chuckywang]

You sure? It doesn't say so on the bottom of the trade-in page:

I know, I usually do that, but they had signs and flyers about the deal near the registers and they were telling me about it also. Oh well.

Positive, says it on the actual coupon.

 

[chuckywang]

Positive, says it on the actual coupon.

The coupon is $20 bonus for every four next gen games traded ($2 or less excluded).

However, the GS trade-in site says there's a $20 bonus for every four XB1 and PS4 games traded with no minimums specified.

It seems to be a different offer as coupon includes all next gen, but trade-in site is only XB1 and PS4.

 

[TooPoor]

my trade ins require a little foot work, I have to pick up some 4 for 40s and use my b2g1. It will require me to go up 5 stores tonight. I have my route mapped out already

If you have a B2G1, you can just get Syndicate and BLOPS III preowned (PS4 and XB1), and trade them back immediately for the $31.8 each promo. Then you can save your 4 +$20 coupon for something else.

 

[GamerDude316]

I need a 4th game for the promo...any potential boomerangs from GS?

 

[matrix9280]

Wolfenstein Old Blood. Buy for 17. Sell for 16.

Most times it don't make sense to take a loss. Most times.

 

[gameupboy84]

So the four game trade in promo is four games and an extra 20 for each game or just 20 on top of the current trade credit?

 

[ariel.rosales3]

$20 on top. $5 extra for each game.

 

[Bombarded]

Any boomerangs that cost under $20?

I'm still trying ti decide what games to trade in and if I should do just for or trade 8. All of these I want to buy back when they get cheaper except evolve. I think it would be best to trade the first 4 games since its goes over $100 which is enough for an ebay to bb $100 gc

doa 5 ps4 13.20 + 5 (18.20)
battlefront ps4 27.50 + 5 (32.50)
dark souls 2 ps4 14.30 + 5 (19.30)
need for speed x1 27.50 + 5 (32.50)
evolve ps4 4.40 + 5 (9.40)
sleeping dogs ps4 11 + 5 (16)
tomb raider de ps4 11 + 5 (16)
the order 1886 ps4 7.70 + 5 (12.70)
bloodborne ps4 18.70 + 5 (23.70)
xenoverse ps4 14.30 + 5 (19.30)

This thread went have gone apeshit if it was $20 for each lol.

 

[KansasCityKing]

I still don't understand why this rules out playing dumb.

 

[inkcil]

So if you use the coupon this works on ps3 and 360 games?

 

[dennisb407]

My PUR acct got banned at Gamestop. I let it expire at the end of December since I was out of trade credit and their sales didnt really interest me anymore. I tried to sign in the other day and it wouldnt let me so I called today and they gave me the news saying I broke terms and conditions even though the last thing I did was back in November was redeem all my points for the X1 Elite console. Luckily I only lost 1400 points so Im not upset.

 

[bengi15]

no the other cagamer said gs doesnt take two copies I just explain that one of my gs takes two copies same title platform game. I just trade in two nfs and nfs rival and type 0 apparently nfs doesnt stack both promo so I get $10 less.100 for all 4 not bad

Sorry to hear. What was it that they banned you for? Did you try making a new account?

 

[dennisb407]

No idea, the guy on phone said I broke terms and conditions even after asking specifically a few times but to no avail. No havent tried, no desire since I shop at BBY with their 20% deal and Im optimistic that the $10 certificates will kick back in during the 2nd quarter of the year since first of year is always dead in video game land

 

[Miami Flash15]

I went to GS today and there was a police officer just sitting there -- what gives? It's not the holiday rush anymore? Bad area, perhaps?
