Jesus christ I'd rather keep it and put it in the bathroom to play while I shit. Anytime you trade and put it on an edge card or giftcard you lose the tax free status. What happens to store credit if the company goes belly up?
Poor TIVs, only worth trading if your console is really beat up. I guess worth it until pre orders open up at ebgames, then i may just trade it in and wait.. The best thing about Target having decent prices on new games is if the price is listed on their website, EB will price match them which is pretty cool. If and when I buy a console game it's usually for someone from the family and I do a quick search to find the best price and that's it.
I take a lot more pride in getting my OzBargain fix for my own games, haha. Strahany, I see your point with the sports titles - but those games pumped out by EA are really not very different year to year anyway except for the rosters.
The trade in prices on those sports games are super-low compared to most games as well but I see your point. I'm guessing EB lower their trade in values during the double trade in periods or is it different from store to store? Can't wait for that one. I picked up Metro and Last Light for cheap one day and they became a couple of my favourite games. Exodus looks amazing too. I'm almost wholly digital these days, I only go to EB for a contained single player experience that I can trade back a few weeks later for PSN credit.
Even less considering their other expenses. I know sometimes people feel like they are getting ripped off but you gotta compromise somewhere, can't have really cheap games and high trade prices, they are still a company and have to make money somehow.
I understand your points and may have gotten a little carried away with some slight exaggeration, but the general point I was trying to get across is the same, not to mention there are always outliers. I had't heard about the trade within a fortnight deal, but I'm not a console gamer, so apologies for not knowing about that one. I wasn't trying to make a thread simply to whinge about EB - I understand they have a business to run, I have a decent relationship with the manager of my store, probably because he knows how much I spend, but I still find that they could offer better prices for certain games and still make massive profits.
The best a PC gamer can do is get a refund if they haven't played more than a few hours. Woot, we learned I spent way too much time doing something! I'm going to spend more time analyzing why I spent so much time doing something that I shouldn't have spent doing to see how I can learn from my mistake of spending too much time doing something I shouldn't have been doing in the first place.
EB Games Australia. Nice share, when's it valid till? Specific date or randomly changes? A lot less people would do it. The new Pokemon games are under the deal now and this will be the cheapest way to get them.
Anyone got a new list? Metroid Droid and Mario party have been added to the promo Looking for some bargains. I'd always contact your local store for up-to-date and correct information.
