Just preordered Zelda and a controller. I'm a platinum edge member so I should be able to return these items no problem right? I'll probably wait like 3 days before going back to do the refund.

Can we confirm starfox is down to $44? I bought 3 copies of that and Mario Tennis last night. Traded in 2 of each (knew I was pushing my luck) to pay off my switch pre-order and put the rest on a pro controller preorder (had just come down). Was going to get the gf to go to a different one tomorrow and finish the preorder on tyne controller and get Zelda.


Still debating keeping the switch or putting the credits on future pre-orders then using them on Scorpio.

All stores should be taking them now. However, the reps will try and tell you that the trade deals dont cover it because tis not a launch title. But NONE of the language of the deal says it has to be. Be firm, and they will give it to you, they cant deny it to you.
Receive $26.67 for each traded game towards the pre-order of any Nintendo Switch title, up to a maximum of $79.99 per Switch title.

Only have one or two games you’re willing to trade? No problem! You will still receive $26.67 for each of them towards the title!

Eligible for potential game trades with a current minimum value of $8 and that are for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Wii U or 3DS. Offer valid only towards games normally accepted in trade. Games must include original cases and artwork. Cannot be combined with any other trade offer. No duplicate titles accepted. Trades must be in full working condition to receive full value. Subject to Manager approval. Offer subject to change at any time. No substitutions will be made.
Receive double the trade value for any PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Wii U or 3DS games you trade towards the pre-order of any Nintendo Switch hardware, software or accessories!

Return policy states 30 days for unopened merchandise.
Returned product(s) must be in the original packaging and include any manuals, cabling and accessories in saleable condition. We reserve the right to limit returns to unopened or defective products. Defective product(s) will be replaced with a like item, upon return. Terms and conditions of manufacturer's warranty apply to defective video games systems and computer hardware after 30 days.
If you just did the trades to get the credit to move it somewhere else, you dont actually have to pick up the product. You can come back in a day or two and just cancel the preorder, it will go back as credit on your account.

The particular EB I was at didn't give me too much trouble, I just didn't have my games with me at the time so I didn't bother.

I never did find Deus Ex anywhere through out the posts. Anyone know where that is sitting? I bought a copy yesterday and played 10 minutes and really don't like it. Not even out of the first mission. Does it get better or should I trade it?

That's ok. She can preorder Zelda and another game. Then I can cancel and keep as a credit if I want to use for Scorpio.

Just not 100% sold on the switch yet but I know I'll use the credit one way or another

I'd imagine it would be $30-$40 base value since it just dropped.

sell it on Kijiji, if you bought this for 79.99 there's no way to get in your money even with TIV

Got it for $50 during the pre-order sale. If it's worth 35 and up it would be worth it (since there's taxes on top of it). Then again, might go the Kijiji route.

I just traded this in yesterday and it was $12. So you can get $26.66 for it.

I loved the first one. This one has some control issues for me. Like if your in cover trying to move around and I come out of cover he doesn't stand up and to move around in cover is not very fluid. I don't know lol. Also guys die super dramatically so you continue shooting them since they still seem alive so you waste bullets. I can normally tell pretty early on if I like a game I paid 20 for it so maybe I'll go trade it before the 2x is over.

For the average trader, the values remained relatively the same.
Just a handful of hidden abuse titles that finally tanked. :twisted:

Mario Kart and Arms for Switch are live to preorder as of this morning, Pro Controllers as well.
There were reports yesterday of the promo wizard not activating T3 / Double Up promos towards these titles.

Be sure to check with your local store before finalizing your trade.

YMMV.
I don't recommend this since you're honestly not fooling anyone when you come back "in a day or two and just cancel the preorder"

There were few internal memos regarding dealers taking advantage of the Double Up Promo.
Just be patient to avoid getting yourself flagged.

Unless you live in Quebec of course... its a wild west out there :twisted:

Thanks for your posts! It seems like you work at an EB??
How do people get "flagged"?
