Mid Year Price Reductions, Preowned Games from $2 at EB Games

400

It's that time of year again when EB will start decorating their stores in red and discounting stock.

Here are a few deals:

PS4

Xbox One

Switch

And here are the links for all products by platform. Also, both preowned and new games/loot are covered.

Shipping is a flat rate $14.95 or $16.95(strategy guides) so either Click & Collect or buy enough games to make it worthwhile.

(It's not a great sale to be honest. Personally, a lot of the games at around $30-$40 or so should've been discounted further)

    I think this is the first time EB has ever had a sale

    Their prices are high because they have to pay for all that floor to ceiling red vomit

    • Definitely looks like an end-of-generation clear out

  • +5

    $14.94 shipping for the items I checked seems excessive.

    • +4

      This. Kills it.
      $14.95 for the first item! That's way more than actual postage costs.

    Watch out buying new games from ebgames, especially if they are older titles. They love sending used games as new. I fell for that twice in recent months.

    I highly recommend calling your local store if you can. Ask if they have new or sealed copy. Even if the website says they have a new one in stock, the store employee will say otherwise.

      The other month i bought a new game on a sale at EB as click and collect, when arriving the storegirl advised she could only give me a clear cover and wouldn't look for an alternate copy of the game. Argued with her back and forth for about 5 minutes before i pulled the manager card, whom came over and saw the order was for a new game and then went to fetch the new game.
      I think there are certainly staff there whom don't care, end result i still got the new copy at the cost of getting daggers whenever i am there.

        You could always go ask your local Cash Converters, my store has loads of spares they'll either give you or sell to you for 1$ea

        • I'll remember that - thanks!

    sum of teh linx are phucked

    • You were right. I fixed them up just then.

  • Damn was hoping for cheap titanfall 2 on ps4. They won't price match the prices for new stock which is pretty weird.

    • If you're buying a pre owned game and it's more expensive than the new version, the pre owned version is supposed to become 10% cheaper than the new price.

      At least they have done that for me in the past.

        Haha nah. They told me it was an 'Easter Egg'.. And it's like finding the store that had stock

        • My local said the same sort of thing, “oh yeah it’ll be one copy in one store in WA or something”

  • Haha some of the prices are funny
    48 bucks for pre owned mlb the show 15
    Pretty sure that's my copy I sold them a couple of years back. Think they gave me 9 bucks after charging me a tax cause it was a us disc.

  • Hmmm has anyone got Darkest Dungeon? I'm on the fence for the price they're selling it…

  • Finally i can maybe use some of my $1300 credit.
    Hope they have some collectors editions on sale.

      I would agree Strange Brigade is awesome coop fun, had a blast playing through the campaign several times, trying to get all the hidden collectables.
