Ebgames trade in deals (trade ANY 3 gba games = Nintendogs free)
- Thread starter Wario64
- Start date
I hate EB for trade-ins... a few days ago, I took a handful of shit-bin quality PS2, Xbox and GBA games to a Gamecrazy and walked out with Moto GP 2 and PGR2, no money out of my pocket. Then I took seven old PSX and Dreamcast games in essentially mint condition (which the GC wouldn't take) to an EB.. and walked out with $1.25 cash.

I think Iridion is really cheap at Gamestop, like $2 or $3. I smell profit.

Welp, I guess I'll be joining the US chapter of the Drinky Puppy Club as soon as this deal starts, then. :lol

That's right, you trade games for a pre-order. Of course, you could always change the pre-order to any other game you want, so the deal is essentially "trade any 3 GBA games for $40 store credit towards anything." The EB employees might give you dirty looks when you change the pre-order (on a future visit, ideally, unless you're downright shameless), but I've never had them tell me no yet.

Gamestop is doing trade any 3 PS2, Xbox, GCube, PSP game and get an extra 10 dollars in Gamebucks (tax free credit)
Doesnt include sports titles or wrestling titles.. but man if you own shit titles like Project Eden or like Robocop.. $$$ Ez cheap money haha
Also if you have the game informer with G.U.N. on the front the coupon in there for 50% extra trade in value on any 4 or more PSP, DS, Gamecube, Xbox, PS2 trade ins is still valid till the end of this month

Local newspaper had the coupon sheet. They got smart i guess, no more instore coupons for special deals. You might get lucky and find a store with some extra coupons. I'm currently looking for a paper that has this as the one that was sent out to my area doesnt have it. Stupid regional marketting. Cause only the rich areas get the good ads.

I'm following the same thread and they're talking about StreetWise.com. Apparently they have an EBGames Street Team there (look in the Teams -> Video Games Section). It's weird because it looks like it's not active anymore, but supposedly people in that forum are talking about getting the coupon you need for this deal in the mail.
Edit: Though some people are saying that the coupon is coming in the mail as a flyer, around August 12th.
Some CAG guys are saying that people are doing it without coupons.
I called one store that hasnt heard of the deal, and another where the guy found the deal, but I guess in some EB Deal Catalog or something, because he said I'd prolly need the coupon.
CURSES!
If someone would be kind enough, could they upload the coupon or something?

From CAG:
Deal now requires 4 GBA games officially with no coupon, there will still be a Streetwise coupon though that you can still get it for 3 GBA games. No one knows when the Streetwise coupon will be available.
Edit: Sounds like there is a restricted list of GBA games you can't use for the trade in deal too. No one has posted the list yet.
