PS4+any two games+€150 = PS Pro

murphyebass · 2018-06-01 07:22:16

I was surprised at this offer in GameStop tbh. My PS4 was sounding like a jet engine, very hot no matter what the ventilation, wasn’t taking discs that well if at all sometimes and had a 500gb hd. To be honest I’m surprised it didn’t die on me in the last 6 months or so. Anyway as the title suggest trade in your original…

Gonna go for this deal tomorrow, how long do they take to check your console? I'll have to nip out to them on my break from work.

I had to leave mine for an hour, so went off and did a few other bits.

They literally must get about 5 consoles in per store at a time.

Don't worry they are due more again apparently they got a good stock of them it's just a case of getting them to stores so maybe give your details to your local and they contact you when they arrive in

Nope, I actually asked them when I brought mine in coz I couldn't find the original box. They just said they get rid of the original box and re-box it themselves, which surprised me, thought the original box would look better unless it was an original PS4 and GTA5 bundle box or something which would mean Gamestop would have to sell likewise if they used the original box.

No, just gave a random HDMI cable, I'm sure the micro USB would be the same, as long as they work is all they're looking for

Got it today - non standard HDMI & USB cables were fine. Guy also took the Fortnite code (no interest in it) and gave me the level 3 Rewards card for free for doing so

So what did everyone do with their info on the PS4 they traded in? Did you wipe everything before taking it in?

Lads is this deal still ongoing? Says 200 euro on the website.

Also is it worth upgrading to the pro?
These days my ps4 gets used more for Netflix sky or YouTube more than gaming!

I think the PS4 pro trade-in deal is over, replaced by an Xbox X trade-in deal instead. I got the trade in and if you have a 4k telly or a first gen PS4 its definitely worth it.

I'm looking for the availability of this deal in Limerick. All that's coming up in stock online is the white ps4 pro which is fine for me. Do lads know does it have to be the fortnite bundle you take or can it be any PS4 pro? I've skimmed the thread and couldn't find an answer. Thanks!

For €99 it is, for €169 you can get the GOW or Spiderman bundles.

Thanks lads. Thought as much. I might buzz them tomorrow and see how they are for stocks early next week.
