[dredwards]

sounds like a great deal..

 

[truballa101]

Fifa has a high value but I believe TRU still sells it for $60. YMMV

 

[oh you mad]

good thing I ordered them all online so i gonna let the 5 days pass for them to cancel the orders.

I copped 30 (Buy one get one free

) of these for $50 and they are still selling on ebay for around 50 so easy 750 in my pocket for them.

Sorry SoCal nters I bought em all

 

[vslackin]

So if I were to get these 3 games and go to BB and pre-order, I can cancel the pre-orders anytime I want right?

Can somebody post instructions?

I'm probably overthinking this.

i have no idea what yall are doin going to best buy trading in games and getting your finger prints taken

the way i've done this deal has always been

buy 2 games get 1 free
get a gift receipt for the purchase
return the first 2 games for store credit and keep the free game
repeat process.

i did this at best buy last time and just stacked up copies of NCAA football, then listed them all on craigslist for 45-50 dollars each.

 

[witnessmycalm21]

Might have to do that BB ###%....

Hey guys, when you trade in at best buy and pre-order, do you get 40% extra store credit based on your store credit?
So if I have $100 in store credit and I pre-order a game, will I get $40 extra in store credit?


@vSlackin
I'm confident you can cancel pre-orders.

Have you tried this method in 2011, does it still work?

yes. the city i live in only has one best buy so i had to be careful and couldnt do it as much as id like to. it worked though. only difference was this time they asked for my drivers license during the return. got 3 free copies of NCAA plus 2 games worth of store credit. sold all 3 games for 50 a piece, and still had 120 in store credit to BB

Somebody posted that you actually just reserve the game but dont have to go buy it, its just 5 dollars.

As profitable as this has been the past two years for me, and last year was damn good, I think I'm gunna sit this one out. By the end of last year they wouldn't even let me in any of the TRU's in my area. All shifts knew me too lol. Good luck to all!!! If you have the free time this can be very worth the effort!

 

[generationz]

Wait so at Bestbuy can you trade in as many of the same game as you want at 1 time?

 

[650sgabe]

Has anyone tried this at TRU yet? Any info is appreciated

 

[angryostrich]

For everyone in NYC theres a place called CEX exchange they have a few locations scattered around the city you can use their website to see what the trade in value would be. They usually give a bit more then say best buy or gamestop check it out the site is http://www.webuy.comhttp://www.webuy.com

If it's the same game (and same console) only 3.
If you have more than 3, then I would suggest going to another BB.

Anyone else find any games that have a high value with trade in + 50% towards a preorder at Best Buy?

 

[solegit08til]

Answering a few questions.

1. Vegas Best Buy's don't require fingerprint scan
2. Xbox 360 Just Dance 3 $29 trade in value
3. There are no other games that give you this good of trade in value/price ratio
4. I preordered like 15 games and dude said it doesn't matter if I buy them or not
5. 3 games of same title same system a day.

Now i got a question for NT. Should I flip 1 Macbook Pro or 4 iPads?

So after you trade in the 3 games you just tell them you wan to make 3 preorders like BF3 or MW3 and the extra 50% will be added to the trade in value?

How much do we have to put down to make a preorder?

 

[djaward]

I see TRU is doing the buy 2 get 1 free on accessories. Has anyone tried doing the trade in deal with accessories (at bestbuy)?

Im guessing this is in the same store? Cuz homeboy above obviously has more than 3 and he got it down packed
  

Yeah all the Best Buys I went to didn't care, they just told me I had to come back tomorrow.

I got that straight from the web site...
In LA they finger print you 

. AND to those saying about the return for free game..... I checked the receipt and they broke down the price noting that it was less for returning so $85 bucks was divided by 3 when you receive a refund.

The best hustle is to get that $40 profit but I really didnt want to keep a lot of money as BB gift cards. 

 

[djaward]

Ok so here is my confusion,

Last year (or a couple of years ago) the way it was done was like this,

You buy 2 games and the last one was free. All games were 59.99 (+ tax). Ask for a gift receipt for all 3 games and you had to make sure the last game they scan was the one you wanted to keep.

Then

You returned the 2 games that you didnt want to keep for store credit and keep the free game to flip. Then you repeat the process. The total amount you spent during the sale was $130.96. Thats it. You kept recycling your money.



Im not understanding how you guys are coming up with this best buy deal. You guys have to spend more than $130.96 because you're not recycling your money. Am I correct? So in order to come up

you must have a lot of $? Again, Im sorry but Im confused.

 

[casperjr]

Do you get cash or do bb put it on a gift card?
