If you read the fine print it says 'STORE CREDIT ONLY'. Still a pretty good deal if you ask me.

You could always by like 10 copys at your 75 buck rate, then trade them all back and make a sweet 30 buck profit each time. So thats a mean 300 bucks for nothing really
and wutang, what games did you get from EB to trade in at JB

That's what I'm thinking. Even though it's store credit at EB Games, it's still alright ... they price match. I can use this store credit for upcoming games like Star Wars and Resistance 2 
It will be difficult though. I got Blazing Angels and Pirates of the Caribbean at EB Games, and they were the only copies there! The only preowned games at EB worth getting at the moment (due to their huge sale) are Blazing Angels 1, Pirates, Surf's Up and maybe LOST. That's if you can get hold of 2 preowned copies though.

If that's the standard edition, go back and get your $15 back because they're only suppose to be $99 at JB anywhere in Melbourne!

I can't believe it. ****. I called Chadstone, asked the guy to put me down for a preorder over the phone, he says I can come the next day, I call again the next day and he says they can't anymore. ****!

Yeah..when i was at Preston JB, MGS4 it's not on the shelf, they still have the pre-order cover, walk to the counter and asked, she didn't find any...she need to go back to the store room and check, she said it was lucky these is some copy left..(but not the LE)...cuz they are fixing up the pre-order first...so I just took it, even when paying for 114.95

I explained to the EB staff that I'm not into stealth games, that I like to barge in and spray and pray
And in the process, I got the Metal Gear Saga Vol. 2 DVD for free!
PS: I think I'm keeping my 1st copy of MGS4
PS2: I'm thinking of doing this again ... xD

Nah its not on the exclusion list, and yeah it is imported from play-asia.com. I think you can get it for $15 excluding postage.

Sweet, so they have it on the system for a trade in do they? or didn't they even check it?

He checked it but it wasn't on the exclusion list so he allowed me to trade it in for MGS4.

I was lucky on my 2nd attempt to be honest. The JB dude realised that the copy of Surf's Up I had obtained was an American version. But he accepted it anyway, saying that it wasn't on the exclusion list anyway (thank god).
