Electronics Boutique - PS3 Trade in

[BradleyConnor]

Just after clarification...

If you trade in either a ps2 or xbox plus 10 games, you can get a ps3 for $699

OR

If you trade in either a ps2 or xbox plus 20 games, you can get a ps3 for $499


Is this the case?

[TheAnswer]

You can trade a ps2 or xbox and 10 games and get $300 off the system (or go and buy an EB Edge card for $10 and they can bump that upto $330 as the EB Edge card gives 10% extra trade in). After this mark every PS2 or xbox title you trade in gives a further $20 ($22 with the EB Edge card).

This deal is only on the PS3, but you can use it on any PS3 products i.e if you have a PS3 already you can use it to get games. You also dont need to trade a console in, as long as you're getting a PS3 product with your trade in EB will guarantee $20 ($22 with the EB Edge card) per PS2/Xbox title you trade in.

It's really handy if you have a pawnshop nearby as you should be able to offer them $10 per title if you buy in bulk and trade 'em straight to EB as they have no exclusions on this deal.

So i must of just dreamt up that if you trade in 20 games, you get more off?

:o


EDIT: Oh wait its good to see i cant read, you wrote ... After this mark every PS2 or xbox title you trade in gives a further $20 ($22 with the EB Edge card).

Would you have to buy the EB Edge card, before you actually trade it in?

Thats only for one EB though. QLD eb's wouldnt honor that

Well actually this is at 5 different EBs at least, Mt Druitt, Penrith, Blacktown and both Parramatta stores in NSW.

[pallamallawa]

Yeh Sydney was fine. I tried with EB up here in QLD and they said its only a local thing with Mt Druitt at the time as some other competitor had been doing that deal.

No wonder you can go and buy shite loads of PS3's and make a cool profit TheAnswer.

Clear out the cashies and trade the games for $22. Wish I could do that.

[Tsargrad]

Would that give $20 on any game.

I have FIFA 02 in crap condition with no manual. Have to be a restriction wouldnt there. (also has the EB 2nd hand sticker for $17.95 on it).

When I traded in it was any game, even ones without manuals. The majority I traded in at $22 each were then give a $17.95 price tag when being put on the shelves :dD

LOL Nice. :D

Makes me wish I had've kept all those old launch PS2 games which were worth less than sqaut when I ebayed them.

[Zeta_Stryker]

That's sweet :). Here in the U.S they also have this offer as well. I may just think of doing it. Who knows, maybe this could be good for those that didn't get to experience PS2.

[headshot007]

Which PS3 package is it and does it include a game?

[Zeta_Stryker]

Um, no. Basically it's what the previous posters have mentioned;

Trade In Items
- PS2
- Memory Card
- PS2 Game Controller
- 10 Games

This would ammount to $300 (or $330 if used with the EB Games Advantage card)

With the Memory Card. You need to buy an extra card so that you can have a back up save file. And that no saved data gets lost during the trade.
