Trade 1 game get Sega Superstars Tennis (Wii) or Ratchet and Clank Tools of Destruction FREE


There might be 1 or 2 deals not listed, but thats cause they probably weren't that great. One more thing, there's no fine print saying games must have a >$8 tiv to trade in for the promos, but i assume thats the case.
**UPDATE via pompoco:
"Just hung up the phone....
The fineprint says... ask for details/trade restrictions, so here they are:

1: TIV >=$8
2: Case + Manual

Too bad, I thought i could get rid of my old Mirrors Edge, Dark Sector, Army of Two, etc... but no cigar.... "

wow some pretty nice deals, too bad i dont have any games that I can trade in

[domo325]

Hm, pretty good deal on both EA Active and Ratchet and Clank. Might pick those up soon..

[taro-chan]

ack.. you have to trade it towards that title.

[Acid_]

Interesting deals. I guess EB is trying a new approach with the trade 1 + 4.99.

If I trade my Fallout 3 (40TIV) towards Bioshock.. what happens?

a) I get 35 dollars credit and Bioshock.
b) I pay out 5 dollars and get Bioshock.
c) The world explodes

[cashinstinct]

Answer is b. So not worth to trade high tiv games

You get a credit of whatever the difference b/w bioshock's sticker price and $40.

Anybody know where to pick up games that have $8 TIV for cheap? I'm kinda interested in the ODST deal since I wanna play the single player campaign, but I don't want to pay full retail price for it.

MAYBE you get $40 - ($8 + $4.99) because of the min TIV and $4.99 for bioshock.

Trade 1 and get GT5 prologue, Tiger woods 09 ALLPLAY, Resistance Fall of Man for $4.99[/B]

Only ONE of those, right?

[Jagmit]

Only ONE of those, right?

yup, sorry i'll make it clearer

[99bimmer]

I'm interested in Tiger Woods 09. What's the cheapest game I can buy that is valid for the trade in?

[the_fm]

Only ONE of those, right?

yes

Are you sure of that? Typically, trade in promos are that you do not get the TIV of the game you trade-in, the "t1 + X$" is that you must give up the game traded for no credit.
