That's weird. It should just be a company wide thing. Did you call them and ask, or actually try it? Cuz the $10 thing isn't an offer it's just new trade in values

But the $10 minimum isn't a promotion in their system. It's just that they set all the values to $10, which allows other promotions to work. If they had properly added it as a promotion, that would've stopped the promotion stack, but they didn't.
I walked in and asked. Guy told me it doesn't.
Hmm. I would just trade in your shit towards a Switch product and see. I'll bet the system does it automatically, and he's just an idiot.
Hmmm...Will go back tomorrow then.
Sweet , I traded 29 games in and got 580$.
Got double the value when u pre ordered some switch games. When ever eb receives a new orderof switch systems I can transfer my pre ordered games over to pay for switch. Some highlight games I traded in. NBA live 14, madden 25, ac games , the walking dead season 2, titenfall 1, NHL 15 , pinball arcade , MLB the show 14 and 15, angry birds Star Wars and others.Great deal as long as I can get my games transferred over to pay switch. I really don't want the games I pre ordered

I traded in 6 games at EB to pay off for MK8 Deluxe. I received double credit for all 6 games, which totaled $230, and the dude just put the remaining balance on my Edge card. I didn't expect that.
I should have traded for a cheaper Switch related item, and picked up MK8 from Amazon with the prime discount. lol

You can always switch the preorder.
Looks like others on RFD are reporting changes to the $10 bump and Switch promo

Wouldn't be surprised if it changes tomorrow.

I traded my NHL 15 and Madden 14 for $20 each today along with a bunch of other old junk... and got some BoTW amiibos, Mario Kart 8 and Persona 5 paid off. So happy

Lol, I traded in my NHL 15 today too. $10 dollars for that garbage. I just used all my credit to fully pay off RDR 2 since it was no tax either if you apply to a preorder.

Have any Nintendo Switch silicone or similar type cases hit the market yet? Don't like carrying around a naked console.

They better double up my games tomorrow!
Hmm. All I see are silicone on the joycons. I haven't see any on the whole system.

Traded in Ryse, Watch Dogs and Dead Rising 3 for $60 towards arms. Just told them I am here for the garbage game trade in.

What's funny is they jacked up the price on their old sports games to $13 used.
Damn. Knew I should've went today, was looking all over my house for FIFA 15 for this
Shit me too. Could have ordered Isaac. Didn't wanna pay $55 but a couple of old games to make it $15 would be fine.

Correct.

Reminder of the old blockbuster trade in days. Any 4 towards a new release. The EB down the street ran out of old sports games.
Heads up: mario sports 3ds is not reviewing well. Cancel those preorders while you still can.
Was looking through Switch ad's on kijiji this morning and this gave me a good laugh:
The amount of scalpers is so sad though. I see so many ad's where people are like: "I picked up an extra one or I got it for someone but they got one already so I have to get rid of it". Y'know, you could easily just return the damn thing but nooo, we all know you're in it for the profit. :\

The minimum $10 credit is still happening, but the switch double-up to $20 seems to be YMMV.

Damn I hope they let me double my trade in values for Switch stuff. Even still, getting $10 for some of the games Might be better off selling on Kijiji otherwise (I don't have old sports games sadly).

The promo on the website doesn't specify anything so I'll fight for it if I have to.
What's encouraging is they don't seem to be making much off the consoles. Seeing a lot listed for $500 or thereabouts
All that hassle for $50 bucks

My younger brother sold his extra for $550 and sold it very easily.
He wasn't buying extras to scalp, he pre-ordered two of them just in case something happened to an order on launch, and it did. Both Amazon and Best Buy were days late on the delivery so he ended up getting one launch morning at a local Walmart. I bought one of the online orders from him at cost.
It's on their website though

People on rfd are saying that it's still fine.

They didn't let me pre-order Mario, said it wasn't in their system
Same here, but what you can do is put it on a different game, and when Mario is in their system, just phone in and get your credit swapped over

Worked for me today.
Never saw any, all retailers I went to (BB, EB Games) only had plastic protectors.
Went the Amazon route before having my Switch, still don't have mine (Orzly), scheduled around March 24th-April 10th. Already scratched my Switch and sold it.
I'll be waiting for a restock and then I'll be fully equipped with my tempered glass and carrying case right out of the box.

So EB is cracking down on swapping your double value switch preorders to other stuff? I'm was going to change three switch games over to Neir and steam credit today.
Seems to be hit or miss as some on RFD are reporting fine while others are being refused. I honestly don't understand how this isn't a universal yes or no.
Depends on who you get. Some people are sticklers for rules, others don't give a crap.
