| madkiller said: Let me clarify for people that can't read very well and those you try to say this is not a good deal. I used $55 in FREE gift cards to Best Buy to purchase 3 games using the buy 2 get 1 free deal (2 left 4 Dead, 1 GTA 4). I received a FREE copy of Halo 3: ODST at the Best Buy midnight launch of the game from a drawing. I traded in those 4 FREE games plus Halo 3, Batman: AA, and my original Left 4 Dead to Gamestop and received a whopping $185 in trade in credit using the tiered trade in deal going on where you receive 40% extra credit for 6 games or more and 10% more for using the Edge card for a total of 50% extra trade in credit. Original cost I paid for all 7 games = $185 + tax, trade in credit received = $185, loss = only tax. I used a FREE $50 gift card on top of the $185 to have a total of $235 basically free credit toward the $400 purchase. The other $165 will be covered by trading in my existing 60 GB unit with all the white accessories for it. Total money I spend = $0, all I lose is 3 games that I don't play anymore. I gain 190 GB HDD space, CoD: MW2, custom paint job, all new black accessories including 2 wireless controllers, and a new 3 year RROD and E74 warranty for 3 games I don't play anymore. You can't get a better deal than that, period... |
Just because you got the games for free it doesn't really change the fact that you traded 7 games plus accesories for 190GB and 1 game... Might be a good deal in your eyes since you not really losing money on it, but that stuff is worth 3 times as much as what you get for it.
