This just came in on the intranet this afternoon. Starting tomorrow (2-9), all green tagged items will now be reduced 90%.

Odds are, there isn't much good stuff left...but what IS left will be $1-4, so some of that junk might be worth looking into.

RE: CVX (PS2): $9 (not 90% off, I just wanted it)
Six copies of Primal for $1.50 each (I laready traded in 2 at EB for $11, so the Primals already paid for themselves. Gonna go trade the rest in later with another employee, since this one didn't want to take more than two copies.

This was at the Hialeah, FL store.
 
My haul:

Sega Marine Fishing (DC) - $1.00

Just got back, very disappointing!
They repriced the PS2 system selectors/stands with orange tags, same thing with the PS2 speaker systems.
I did get
Gran Turismo 2 $1.50
NHL 2K2 DC $2
True Crime GC (Players Choice) $2

I got the last of each and those were the only games green tagged. The only other gaming stuff was GBA Hip Clips for $0.40 and Intec Xbox component cables for $2.
 
I checked it out over my lunch break. It's funny, they took off the greentags from half of the stuff that used to be GT'd, and jacked up the price of everything that stayed GT'd.

Ended up with:
Alien Front Online (DC): $1.50
Bloody Roar: Primal Fury (GCN): $3

Oh man, so there was nothing good there? I was going to go after classes, but if there's nothing there worth it I may as well actually do my homework.

Good haul, guys. Most of the games at my store WERE NOT green tagged.

--You saved $252.49

Might go back. My TRU still has a ton of sealed Metal Slug 3 on XBox, but it wasn't "green tagged". Of the items I got, both PC games, Wallace and Gromit, and all of the DC games except Samba De Amigo were green tagged. The rest were manually scanned to check, so please keep that in mind when searching today.
 
I feel gipped since there was nothing of interest in newer games, all I picked up was:

Megaman 64 - $5.00
intec GBA accessory pack - $.68

well, the 68 cents for a carrying case, light, shield, rechargable battery pack, car adaptor, ac adaptor, link, and FM radio was ok.
 
Picked up 15 games for $30

Unreal 2: $6 (Will return this after reading reviews)
MGS2 XB: $1!!! (4)
BloodRayne GC: $1
XIII PS2: $3 (2)
Kya PS2: $2
Dark Angel PS2: $2
Ejay PS2: $1 (3)
Alter Echo PS2 : $1
MK: DA XB: $2

Off to Coconuts and EB I go :)
 
I just got lucky, didn't know about this deal and don't usually shop at TRU but stopped in to see the big 90% sign on all green tags and got:

Awesome deal TRU!
 
Not too bad. I spent about $30 and got a bunch of games already mentioned.

The only one I got which I haven't seen previously in this thread was Lufia - Ruins of Lore (GBA) for $3.00.
 
There's like, not much at my TRU when I got there. Really not much. I got:
2 Exhibition Demo Disc
2 Pokemon Colosseum Bonus Disc 2.98
Dragon Warrior Monsters 2 Guide

I also was going to get a art book of Pokemon Colosseum but that guy said, it has no bar code and it says not for resale. I didn't tell him that the Pokemon Colloseum disc says that as well.
 
Have any of you guys who picked up eJay Clubworld play it yet?

Best buck I ever spent. The game is great. Better than the PC eJays. I love how theres like 6+ different genres of music all into one. Great game.

I have yet to play Primal or Wild Arms 3. Can anybody who played these comment on them?
 
Grand Rapids, MI, Alpine store was pretty empty. I managed to find:

[Dreamcast] Sega Tennis 2K2: $1.00
[PS] Tomb Raider Original: $1.00
[PS] Syphon Filter 3: $1.50
[PS2] S-Video cable: $3.00
[XB] Genma Onimusha: $2.00
[PS2] Robot Alchemical Drive (2): $5.00

They also had a pile of that PS2 Star Trek Voyager game for $3.70, along with a few others. The Intec 5" PSOne LCD screen was marked $99.99, but scanned at $9.99. I didn't grab either.

Some ebayer came along a few minutes after I picked up my haul and started throwing things into a cart: he got all of the Voyager games (?) and both tags for Fatal Frame. He had a bunch of other junk in the cart too. I slipped ahead of him in the checkout line to let him ogle my copies of RAD ;)

Thanks!
 
Yea, I was disappointed as well, they marked the 2D/3D Sound Systems back up and didn't keep them green tagged.

Also, someone had come in and took the last 2 Intec PSone LCD screens at $10 a piece (that wasn't you was it Stealthyseal)? :cry:

Either way, here's what I got:
Mind you I also had that $3 TRU coupon, so I used that and it took a few cents off each title.

Soul Calibur II Limited Edition Strategy Guide $2.31
(N64) Perfect Dark $0.93
(PS2) Black & Bruised (x5) $2.76 each
(GC) Eternal Darkness (x3) $3.22 each

I managed to pick up a couple...

Wild Arms 3- $3
Black and Bruised (PS2) - $3
Parasite Eve II guide - $.30

And what I considered to be the big find...

An HP Photosmart Digital Camera Dock for 7 bucks. Of course I don't have an HP camera...but if anybody could find me one of those portable VCRs somebody mentioned, I'd trade it in a heartbeat. Anybody?

Ugh, from what TRU?
 
Slim pickings at my store (Tucson), did manage to pick up:

Wild Arms 3 (PS2) - $3
Primal (PS2) - $1.50
Mojo (Xbox) - $1
NBA/NHL 2K2 (DC) - $2

Sega Marine Fishing (DC) - $1

Only other things available that I didn't pick up included lots of e-reader cards (DK Jr./III/Tennis), NFL Blitz Pro (PS2) - $4.
 
just to let anyone around the columbus area, someone came in and cleaned out the sawmill rd store, they only had a couple copies of virtual fighter 4. the clerk said somebody spent like 300$ as soon as they opened. with the games being such a huge percentage off, the person must have gotten like 200 games

hoarding is not cool
 
My TRU (Brandon, FL) didn't even KNOW the green tags have been reduced to 90%.

slim pickings as far as games, only grabbed:

Eternal Darkness (x1) for GC - $4.40
Space Invaders (x3) for GBA - $4.00
Primal (x3) for PS2 - $1.50

They also had the Dreamcast sports 3-pack for $2 and...wait for it...V.I.P. for PS1 (starring the vulptous Pam Anderson) for a whole $1.

I made a killing on Van Helsing Toys (say what U will about the movie, the toys are fly). Got me the GIANT Dracula bat thingy for $1.50.

FYI: anyone in Tampa area, they sdtill had like 10 Primal's left & about 4 Space Invaders.
