    Trade in 2 games and get any PS2, PS3 or XBOX360 game for €4.99
    http://www.xtravision.ie/xvContent.asp?id=28

    I think this may have been posted before!

    Does any body know the terms and conditions for this? Do the games all have to be on the same platform?
    I can't find the T&C on the site for this offer.

    What the hell?Thats even better than Gamestop's offer!There must be a catch of some kind......I can't find any on the site though.

    That link doesn't work (for me anyway). If you go to the site, just click "Games Trading" from the left navigation to see the offer. The Xtravision website doesn't link well for some reason.

    I'd imagine there would be a minimum combined value that the traded games must achieve before you could take advantage of this offer. I tried trading in 6 older PS2 games last week and was offered €20 for the lot. I doubt I'd be allowed to trade in two of these for this offer.

    Incidentally, Gamestop offered me a mere €12 for the same 6 games... for those treasured memories. :D

    You have to copy and paste the link otherwise it won't work.Anyways I bet you're right about the combined value.I know for Gamestop's deal the games had to be worth €44 trade in value.

    Sorry to burst your bubble OP.
    I have the free xtravision mag in front of me

    It only applies to 18 games.
    I'm not typing the list but let's say they are all recent games, for example 2007 versions of EA sports games.

    There are no games on that list that were released pre 2007.

    I don't understand.Are the EA sports games the games you trade in?If so that sucks cause I don't own any sports titles. :mad:

    Their are more than sports games, but if you want to trade them in on this deal, they need to be fairly big tiles and new too. Oh and as far as I know, the console of games you trade in determines the console you get the new game for.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,131 ✭✭✭subway


    that makes no sense, on a new enough titke xtra vision pay around 40 - 45 euro.

    if you gave in 2 new titles you woulde be looking at 90euro trade in value.

    they have a "most wanted list" which is the games that they will currently give the most money, ie, 45 euro for.
    i dont think it has anything to do with this promo


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,578 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    hey, i have like 10 really old ps2 games so does that mean that i will be fit to get a ps3 game for 5euro if i just trade in 2? if so has anyone tried this? wouldnt mind getting a ps2 game either did anyone actually ask/phone the store about details?

    that offer applies only to few titles. it works like that: there's a list of games, which thaey want. for two games from that list you get a game for that 5 Euros. you can't bring any game - they have to be exactly those, which they want.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 681 ✭✭✭Enemy Of Fate


    ****.Well I can't get through to the ****ers anyways.The phone rings and someone picks up, but then theres no sound!I'll ask about the deal when i'm in the shop tomorrow though.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,023 ✭✭✭Canonfan


    I have brand new Xbox 360 games Halo 3 and Fifa08, how much cash can I get from Xtra-vision?

    Thanks.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,171 ✭✭✭Neamhshuntasach


    you'd probably get between 30 or 40 cash for each game. More if you trade in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭Dues Bellator


    tbh lads i feel you get about 15% more value in xtravision, i got a game and a xtravision beside each other were i live, everytime i trade i go to both stores to compare ,i always opt for xtravision, i will say its not like that on new releases the odd time game will be 5 euros cheaper on the big titles like cod and such.plus i bought my system from game it was about 60 euro cheaper than xtravision for the pack i wanted,i found xtravision didnt want to comprimise there game bundels.

    They sell 2nd hand Fifa 08 for 4.99 so i reckon they will give you 2 euro, and halo 3 is sold now for around 20 so i would guess 7 or 8 to maybe 12 for Halo 3 .

    Both those games are fairly old if you want to get any money back on games you have to trade them quickly.

    The post before yours is dated 04-11-2007, 21:11 - in other words the thread was... *counts on fingers* ... 19 months, 3 weeks, 3 days, 15 hours and five minutes dead when you resurected it.



    *E&OE, may be missing a finger.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭Dues Bellator


    hmmmmmm just stating a fact ,does it really matter how old the posts are? in fairness i didnt realize the dates .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,280 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    Is the original bargain/offer still in operation in Xtravision? It may cause confusion as the Bargain Alerts forum has a high turnover of threads.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,590 ✭✭✭Dues Bellator


    xtravison are currently giving 15% more for trade in with vouchers which are available in the star newspapers. i got an extra 17 euro for 3 games i traded yesterday.

    don't these old threads usually get locked? (searches for that graveyard picture that I've seen mods use)
