GameStop Trade in Special - 50%

Post by BlackRain »

Check your local Gamestop to see if they are running a special for trade ins. I walked in to get the MLB Show 10 and they were running a special on trade in values for every game, no matter how old it is from the PS2, XBOX 360, Wii or PS3, you get an extra 50% trade in. I just traded in the PS3 Modern Warfare 2 for $40.00. I am going to go back and check through the old stack to see what I can trade in.

I tried to play the game on the PS3, as it was a gift to me by a friend. But, I have the same game for the XBOX 360 and I play that one a lot. No point on having two of the same game, when I can concentrate on one........especially since I play only Hardcore. I rarely see you on the 360 Dakshdar. Correction, I received exactly $40.00 for the MW2.

Was that at the GameStop with 50% more trade in credit? I would think you would receive more if it was combined with this promotion.

Yes, that's what it said. All I know is that I was surprised that I received $26 for either game, at this point. Maybe it has something to do with being in Iowa. They're probably giving twice as much, per game, on the two coasts! :lol:

I'm pretty much never on my 360. It is a giant, dusty paperweight next to my TV. I haven't bought a new game for it in over a year.

The trade-in value for NCAA and Madden sounds right, even with the +50%. They probably only give about $15 for NCAA and $20 for Madden, so $35 * 1.5 = $52.50.

Remember, it isn't like they're doubling what they give you when you get 50% more, you're getting an extra half.

I enjoy the convenience of using Gamestop and trading in for other games, particularly when they have deals with their used stuff also (buy 2 get 1 free). You can always get more from Craigslist or eBay, but the effort required is a bit higher as well (a little more effort for Craigslist, a lot for eBay with the shipping).

And FYI, this will also stack with the Edge Card for anyone that has that, meaning you get an extra 60% on trade-ins (since you automatically get an extra 10% with the card).

Hopefully that'll be long enough to determine if I'll be in a bowl and to get it played.
