free money from gamestop

Post by Joes2Silly »

I was going over the stuff I traded in to gamestop about a montha ago and I realized that they gave me credit for trading in a SP with a charger and I didnt! The totall of the trade in was about $67 and $33 was for the SP I didnt trade in :D

I exchanged a 2 year old broken GBA SP at Wal-Mart for a brand new one. It took a bit of lying and deceiving, but I got it none the less.

It's only Wal-Mart so we forgive you.

I wish I had learned of Walmart-trade-ins when I bought my DS. I would have bought a broken one before hand, then bought the working, switched the backs, and come out with two working ones. Sadly its been like 6 months since I bought the DS.

I have the receipt around here somewhere, I think I got rid of the box, though.

I should start buying broken and pulling the trade-in scam more often. I've used it a couple times, and it's easy money. The only problem is that there are only a few Wal-Marts in my area, so they would start to recognize me, even if I went on different days, so there would be different people. Although, if I could get my former scam partner to help me out, we could make this work.

Ya that would work till Wallmart catches you and takes you to court for warrente fraud and makes you pay triple what you got from swapping GBAs...

hey I know, you could look for a store that lets you return objects that haven't been oppened, lie, and they give you the money!, I saw it in a movie once, a gujy took a knife set and went to the return and got money!

Usually you have to either rip or cut stickers or plastic, so it's pretty much impossible to say that you didn't open that.

I returned my ds cause the L and R Didnt work. The screen was scratched too, so I was happy when they gave me a brand new one instead of just fixing the buttons.

nos_slived,

That really is a bad example, considering you're a moderator and a high ranking member.

Not trying to sound like a goody two shoes, but that is just messed up.
