Looks like Need for Speed went back up to 39$ for Xbox One. Hope nobody procrastinated

I grabbed one today, was going to go PM another tomorrow, guess that won't be happening.

 

[Bombarded]

Limit is 500 for unverified 5000 for verified accounts.

Thank you. I hope gs lets me buy $175 worth of ebay gc tomorrow after trading in

 

[chuckywang]

i traded in 8 games yesterday and it didnt add anything until they scanned the coupon, so it doesnt seem like it is working without the coupon.

The offer on the trade page only says XB1 and PS4. Were all 8 games you traded in XB1 and PS4?

My 8 were, and it didn't activate till the cashier scanned the coupon either.

6 PS4 and 2 Xbox Ones

 

[chuckywang]

Nice, I have $20 in BB credit. Just going to use that and trade in 4 Duck Dynasty games.

Good luck getting a GS to take multiple Duck Dynasty games in 1 transaction.

 

[ray2dee]

Damn I procrastinated but that game has been fluctuating ever since release (EA title I know) hopefully it will go low again this week

 

[srac84]

Is it a lifetime limit?

monthly limit

 

[Raw_Orangejuice]

Weird spot to ask, but how long does a ebay refund take to post to my Paypal wallet? I used a ebay gift card

 

[Donut2922]

You should be able to use it right away.  Just enter the gift card number again during checkout.

I think I threw it away, please tell me I'm not screwed

 

[subasa228]

I think you can still see you Ebay gift card number on your Paypal transaction detail. Hope it helps.

 

[Pengy99]

When the refund is issued it should have the GC number on the email you get.

 

[person123]

Theres a page on paypal that has a history of all the ebay gift cards you have used before and it will tell you if it has a balance or not. 

It's pretty helpful with all the rolling I was doing on eBay. https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/customerprofileweb?cmd=_profile-pie-available

 

[RoodyPooUS]

Wow it keeps track of all the old GC, have a long list of depeleted

 

[Raw_Orangejuice]

Wow thanks so much guys, when I get home I will try it from my laptop, PayPal won't sync on my phone for some odd reason. I'll check back with you guys

Thank you so much, found my redemption code. Not sure how you got this link, I Google solutions all day and came up with nothing. I combed through PayPal and nothing. Thank you so much

Side note, did anyone make purchases at gamestop yesterday and not get the points?

 

[Bobby's World]

That's crazy I had like 60 depleted gift cards, mostly those $100 ones that I got for $95 and the rest must have the ones that I purchased with Gamestop credit

 

[Raw_Orangejuice]

Now i cant even purchase ANYTHING on ebay even if i try new accounts.  My paypal wont let me login at all and i keep getting error messages, this has been happening to me all day! Driving me nuts, is there no solution???  I just want to spend this gift card and be done with ebay.  Such a headache

You got banned, looks like an IP ban. Did you buy a lot of gift cards on ebay last month?

 

[Raw_Orangejuice]

nope, I tried my computer and my phone. Nothing. Maybe it's the best buy gift cards Im trying to buy, Idk. I haven't bought much off eBay before. Edit***** Found the problem, it was a problem with my credit card

Can anyone find GTA V for XB1/PS4 on the GS site? Only PS3/360 showing up for me

If your asking about trade values, you have to use the app since the game is on sale. But it is part of the guaranteed 30 so with PUR boost it will be 32 something.

 

[Thespyder314]

So does that trade 4 next gen games get extra 20 in trade credit stack the the games currently trading in for 30? I figure it does i just want to make sure before i head to gamestop

 

[ariel.rosales3]

No. Myself and someone else tried it and trade credit reverts to the original trade value.

 

[BrianJason]

No it just adds $5 to the base. In my case, I traded NFS in a separate transaction to get the 32.50 and then traded 4 other titles

 

[Hoover10]

Does any one know where to get the coupon?  The rep at Gamestop stated the app but I used that and it directs me back to their website. 

 

[tearsintherain]

You need a PUR (PUR Pro?) account, if you login to the website or the phone app go to active offers and it should be in there.  If you don't have PUR/Pro or you only signed up recently you won't have the coupon, and there is no way to get it.  I don't know if signing up for a PUR/Pro account now will add the coupon to your account.

Signing up for PUR is free in store, PUR Pro is $15/year - you can use gamestop points to pay though, you have to "buy" a PUR Pro coupon for 15000 points on the PUR Pro store either online or on the app.

Is Gamestop still giving out 20% off birthday coupons? I haven't gotten one even though my "birthday" is Jan 5th.

i got one in november

Yes. I got one for my birthday this month.

 

[alucardus]

I believe this is confirmed, but wanted to check here first; you don't need the coupon for the extra $20 to trade in 4 next-gen games? I only assume this since the site mentions the extra credit. I used my coupon yesterday to trade in 4 games and didn't realized you can double the extra credit by trading in 8, 12, etc. I have a few more games I can get rid of if I can get the credit without the coupon. TIA.

It was confirmed the other way. You DO need the coupon.

 

[Bombarded]

You do need the coupon. I just traded in 3 games and they told me to bring another game to get an extra $20. I asked them if they were sure it would stack with the $30 guarantee promo they said yeah. They added one game but no extra $20. All of them were current gen games

They don't stack. I confirmed it as well as other people have.

little offtopic but anyone got a recommendation for goop to remove GS stickers? Bought a used copy of Pikmin 3 with a ebay reward cert today. Normally I don't bother removing them but I might actually want to sell this game after I play it.

I've had luck with Goo Gone. However, overdoing it can lead to the case feeling a little slippery—like it's got lube on it.

I use this as well, but if you leave ANY on the case in a concentrated area, it ing destroys the plastic.

Lighter fluid works. Ronsonol etc.

I've never had a problem with WiiU cases with just peeling the GS sticker off carefully.

Same with XBO and PS4 cases.

It's usually only problematic with 360/PS3/Wii cases.

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

hmm were u able to stack the 4 for $40 sale with the b2g1 coupon within the same transaction for a total of 5 games or 7 games?

 

[Raw_Orangejuice]

I used the b2g1 to purchase black ops on ps4/Xbox and Syndicate. I bought a 4 for 40 for rabbids and unity, paired those with bloodborne and handsome jack for a trade in order to purchase the b2g1.

 

[GamerDude316]

Anyone know if the $30 promo is still working without a preorder? Have a NFS to trade in tonight.

 

[JustinTheGamer]

Lame the trade 4 get 20 doesnt work for wii u games. Was going to trade wii u party, mario & sonic sochi 2014nintendo land and ninja gaiden 3 wondering if i should wait or trade them in anyways considering their price I could get for games I dont play.

Is there ever deal for wii u games anymore?

 

[ariel.rosales3]

I would consider it YMMV. I have not been asked to preorder yet but someone else here has been.

 

[Sunrisecityrider]

I would consider it YMMV. I have not been asked to preorder yet but someone else here has been.

So if I don't preorder a game, are they not going to accept my trade in? The system should give you the $30 no matter what.

 

[Z-Saber]

I did it earlier today and got $31.80, no preorder required.
