    I dropped in mine to be tested @ lunch, can collect the One S tonight at midnight, or tomorrow.

    So are you getting Ronaldo edition for €70?

    Well the standard edition is not out till Friday, so yes, everything I've been told points to that.

    Also was told no deals done at midnight due to having to test consoles etc. Don't hace the time then, which is understandable.

    Naas said Friday morning no problem, preorder Fifa to guarantee getting a copy there and then. Plenty of stock they said.

    The girl in Naas 3 hours ago told me tonight if you've the Ronaldo edition pre-ordered.

    Still waiting for official confirmation. The above image is supposedly a leak.

    I hope the leak is genuine. Those are great games.

    Just got an email and it says get fifa *. Then when you check what the * means it says ronaldo edition valid 26-28th. Standard edition valid 29th- 10th oct.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,357 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    Seems like there is a flurry of xbox s deals coming. Game have forza xbox, Fifa and now tv for £199.

    But Tesco Direct have a great deal. Prob need to parcel motel it but you can get a 500gb Forza xbox s, extra controller, destiney 2, 3 months live for £219 (€250).

    I'm giving up buying stuff in the sales. I bought DmC during the capcom one recently. Granted, it was only a tenner, and I fully enjoyed it, but still, frees free!

    I’m in local GameStop getting my Xbox one tested now!

    Getting Forza and Fifa and the Jersey!

    Didn’t have it pre ordered

    So I traded Fifa back straight away and in total the offer cost me 1.50!

    GameStop gave you that much of a trade in price.

    Did you get the Ronaldo version?

    Fair play. They take long to test?
    Wiped my Xbox but made a new account and put FIFA 18 demo on it,hoping it means they test quicker :p
    May just trade in FIFA like you as I've no use for it,especially if they gave you 68.50€ for it!!

    Did you wipe the console before bringing it in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    I’ll put up a pic of the receipt in a bit!

    He said you’ll get more on the trade in if it’s part of a bundle and done on the one transaction. I’d say I’d I walked out and came back looking to trade it in if Ben lucky to get 40 quid

    I left a dummy profile on it and had one game installed on it. I brought in the game with me too. He wiped it all there then

    Receipt attached

    Receipt attached

    Seems to be an error there in your favour, you got the bundle for €239.99 not €249.99 as advertised. Fifa was traded back as a standard copy at €50 plus the 5% level 1 trade boost which is why you got €52.50 for it.

    If this isn't fixed when I pick up mine on Friday, I'll be credited €5 and have a new console.

    Picked up mine with forza edition xbox
    Had a copy of that already so traded it in (disc version)
    Total cost was 41

    Great bargain!

    Great deal, got the trade in deal tonight :) Fifa (had it pre-ordered), the jersey, and the One S bundled with FH3 and Hot Wheels expansion.

    Pay any extra for the fh3/hot wheels bundle, don't have the Hot Wheels dlc yet.

    No :D

    Well fair play to them. I'll think twice now before saying bad things about gamestop :)

    Still gotta wonder what's in it for them are they simply clearing stock for the X? I'd imagine alot of these will be coming back to them in a couple of months traded against the X.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 897 ✭✭✭Fuzzy Logic


    This may be a stupid question but for trading in the consoles did you include original packaging?

    When I traded mine in last year they asked me not to bring the box, it wasnt needed, was too lat cause I had put everything back in the box anyway
