        Can confirm the PS4 trade. Just traded my PS4 slim plus 3 games for the the gear of war limited edition console. Ending price was $190.70.

        Pretty happy since the console cost me $4.. yay for skill tester machines ;)

  • BewareOfThe Dog on 25/10/2019 - 09:31

    Does anyone have a link for this? There is nothing on there site, other than the full version

        Thank you. I did this before, and again, but nothing about trading in.

      No it’s available to all and on the website

      What email? It's on the website

  • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 10:48

    Has anyone claimed this yet?

    • MCE on 25/10/2019 - 11:34

      Just claimed it at City Cross Adelaide but actually got a different bundle that had 5 Gears of War games plus CoD:MW and Overwatch. They accepted the $4 preowned games I grabbed from the store as part of the trade in.

      • Soluble on 25/10/2019 - 11:51

        Sweet, that was what I was hoping, upgrade my OG a couple of years ago and just bought the 2 cheapest games in store. Not long after that they changed it to selected pre owned games only.

      • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 12:04

        So they are accepting any xbox one pre-owned games?

      • sh4hp on 25/10/2019 - 13:45

        Aside from the five GoW, which I believe is digital, the Cod and Overwatch is both physical?

    • joshr2d2 on 25/10/2019 - 12:30

      I claimed this. Traded in my 500GB One S and paid $238 as I traded in Overwatch since I already own it.

      • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 12:45

        What’s the trade in value of overwatch?

        • joshr2d2 on 25/10/2019 - 12:54

          Around $12, probably not the greatest deal, but I didn't want to bother reselling it.

  • mavis30551 on 25/10/2019 - 11:20

    how much for the xbox one X when trading in a normal Xbox (old black ugly brick thing)

  • quansta on 25/10/2019 - 11:43

    I am keen on this deal,
    but.. what do I need to do to my Xbox OneS before I take it in?..
    is there a reset process or clear the HDD…or just take it in?

    Thanks in advance

    • silverrat23 on 25/10/2019 - 12:05

      You have to reset/transfer yourself. The moment you hand the console over, presume EB will wipe the data once it’s done.

      You’ll need to google how to transfer, as there’s multiple ways of doing it with different results.

    • BewareOfThe Dog on 25/10/2019 - 13:02

      As silverra23 said below, it will be wiped.
      As far as backing up, here's an answer from Bill, as well as this how-to

  • Kybakz on 25/10/2019 - 12:34

    Does anyone know if the $249 is the difference when trading the 500GB or the 1TB model?

    • BewareOfThe Dog on 25/10/2019 - 12:57

      I was wondering if you would get more for a 1TB model?

      • Kybakz on 25/10/2019 - 12:58

        This is what I'm thinking

        • sh4hp on 25/10/2019 - 13:36

          Based on previous deals, 1TB adds $20 value. Not much, but still something?

          • Kybakz on 25/10/2019 - 14:22

            @sh4hp: Yeah perfect that's what I was expecting! :)

    You can get the gears of war bundle too with 7 games for the same price it also comes with a months free Xbox gold membership.

    Might want to include it in the description @iBuzz7S as it seems like a better deal if you don't mind the custom console 😁

    Not included
    Forza Horizon 4 + LEGO Speed Champions

      My local EB this morning wanted to charge me more for the Gears of War bundle. I wasn’t personally bothered because I don’t like the look of the console/controller but ymmv

    • abebram on 25/10/2019 - 22:07

      Can confirm. I got everything, including the FH4.

  • raytheguy on 25/10/2019 - 13:50

    Mine had no stock of the normal Xbox One X so got the Gears of War one too. Unfortunately no Forza Horizon 4 with this bundle. The trade in was quick and easy as they only plugged it in to the TV to see if it turns on and they accepted my $4 fifa ps4 games.

  • Gigrantor on 25/10/2019 - 14:03

    I got myself a Hisense 65P7 a few months ago and have been mainly using my current Xbox one s as a media player but I want to get back into gaming, is it worth the upgrade at this price?

    • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 14:16

      if you want a considerable bump in picture and speed, then yes. You get 4k gaming on the enhanced games. This is a great deal for a trade in

  • AzzaD on 25/10/2019 - 14:10

    If wanting to upgrade an existing Xbox One S would people say this would be the best deal?
    As I assume black Friday dealswouldn't be in store at eb games, only for us stores?

    • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 14:17
      +1

      This is probably the best day so far.

      Black Friday is everywhere

      • AzzaD on 25/10/2019 - 17:11

        thanks, maybe will hold off - don't have a 4K tv yet but planning in the next 6 months, so trying to be all set :P

  • Jakeh on 25/10/2019 - 14:41

    Thanks for the deal. I redeemed my one s with 2 games (NBA2k16 and madden 18). I also used suncorp rewards gift card for 8% off. They were only going to give me $36 for a trade in on Call of Duty, so i'll sell that through ebay/gumtree.

  • Gigrantor on 25/10/2019 - 14:46

    How long is the deal on for, when does it end?

  • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 15:50

    Can anyone direct me to the cheapest games to purchase (from anywhere) that I’ll be able to trade in

    • TightTerry on 25/10/2019 - 16:08

      Also does the game have to come with the box and manuals? If it is a perfect disc with no scratches by itself does this suffice?

      • sh4hp on 25/10/2019 - 20:43

        Just the box usually would do.

        Without a cover, I think they charge a refurb fee (I.e. plastic and printer charges) of like $2 last I checked. If trading in for the two games requirement, it should still be acceptable as there isn't a min game price.

    • Sarge2401 on 25/10/2019 - 20:19

      Destiny 2, fifa 14.

  • Cam on 25/10/2019 - 15:59

    Has anyone that traded in got their ebworld bonus trade in credit? Or is that wishful thinking?

    • jackthefrost on 25/10/2019 - 19:42

      probably only applies to games, not consoles

      • sh4hp on 25/10/2019 - 20:45
        +1

        It's one or the other. The store has already marked up the trade in value, as such they won't apply the bonus. You'll still get carrots though, all 500+249+20 of them! Might even boost a level 1 to level 2!

        • burningrage on 25/10/2019 - 22:10

          I am still waiting for my Level 5 invites

  • burningrage on 25/10/2019 - 22:06

    Thanks OP.

    I did a snap decision to trade in my Xbox S with 1 Xbox One game and 1 PS3 (really cheap one, overwatch).

    But instead of getting the common Xbox X with 3 games, I asked EBGames to give me with the white XBox X and the 3 games (The new Modern Warfare, Forza+Lego, Overwatch again) which I know is rare (only a few left in Victoria) and I know the white one is very expensive to get ($600+). Paid $248

    • xwired on 28/10/2019 - 12:51

      I've done the same and have gotten the white edition but I noticed that my unit was manufactured in July 2018 which meant it's been sitting in the storeroom for at least a year. Is yours any newer?

  • bluntman on 25/10/2019 - 22:10

    Called eastland store they confirmed it can be any game. No restrictions. I went in there and refused my still sealed copy of destiny 2 and refused to tell me wgich games could and could not be traded except that there is a huge list of games that wont be accepted.

    Suffice to say i will take my business to jb now. These guys are way sloppy. Also not even wearing name tags what is this world coming to

    • burningrage on 25/10/2019 - 22:13

      EBGames Eastland sucks. I speak by experience. Don't get offended by their antics, just leave a feedback about them.

      That's why I'd rather go to Knox or Chaddy. Knox is desperately in need of business lol.

      In lukewarm defense of EB. They can't sell the disc because that version of Destiny technically doesn't exist anymore. It was completely reworked and is now a free to play download only game.

      • mackaxx on 26/10/2019 - 15:27

        At Kotara Eb I actually arrived and had forgotten my two games. Bought sky landers and an old nba game for four bucks a pop (used and old $5 gift card to pay for some of that) and immediately used them for the trade,

  • zoomjc on 26/10/2019 - 07:21

    Some stores have the same deal for the Gears of War limited edition One X, which IMO is better value. That's the package I got for my One S trade-in. Only changes from the above deal is GOW 5 Ultimate Edition plus GOW 4,3,2,1 and either Outer Worlds or COD MW.

    • abebram on 26/10/2019 - 13:06

      Yeah.. I got the GoW limited edition (5 GoW games) plus FH4 (download code), outer world (CD), and overwatch (CD). Didn't expect to get the GoW, but I'm not complaining :D

  • unaware on 26/10/2019 - 08:06

    Do I need to bring my HDMI cable to trade in as well? Can't remember if the Xbox came with it…

    Traded my Xbox one X Scorpio for a brand new Xbox one X for $99….not bad and sold modern warfare for $60 making it $39 with two more games to sell….

    Playing outer world's on game pass. Nice game spacers choice!

  • PeppaCat on 26/10/2019 - 13:09

    I just trade in my 500g Xbox one s at castle hills eb games.
    They accept any games… so I gave them just dance and another old game… and also they didn’t check xbox at all…I asked what happen if someone gives them a broken one, they told me they have a team can fix it.

    Just in 3 minutes, I finished my trade in and left their store with the new 1T Xbox one X with 3 games! Pretty happy!

  • k3nnis on 26/10/2019 - 13:51

    • sh4hp on 26/10/2019 - 16:50

      So far, during the few trade ins I have done in several stores, not really.

      Some may mash the controller buttons a bit, but that's it.

      • k3nnis on 26/10/2019 - 19:26

        thanks. So lets say my one S doesn't turn on and they accept the trade in, what happens when they find out it doesn't turn on. Do they track you down?

        • sh4hp on 26/10/2019 - 19:28

          I think someone already asked the question a few comments back. Their reply (EB) is that they have a team to fix it.

  • mackaxx on 26/10/2019 - 13:54

    I got a variant on this today at eb games Kotara, gears 5 edition console, all five gears game, over watch and also choice of cod or outer worlds. Went for outer worlds, have it on games pass but keen to keep, well thinking about keeping anyways. All for 249, I went for the 319 version though trading in my original Xbox one

  • Beefgrinder on 26/10/2019 - 13:57

    Pulled the trigger on this today, also brought in my old XB360 and got a stupidly high trade in value for it, so got the XB1X for $153! Mad!

    You know what makes me happy? Buying back two games that EB paid me $3 for both when traded in, and getting $20 for both Today due to this deal.

    I got the GOW version (really liked it, but loved my money more when launched) and also traded in the physical games (COD and Overwatch) because I am really not into it. Got the price down to $200. Happy days!

    Thank you to the person who found that we could get the GOW version as well!

    • mackaxx on 26/10/2019 - 18:08

      Wasn’t sure I’d be into the look of the console but don’t mind it now I’ve got it out of the box, like that way the gears cog skull thing sits a layer or so down under the transparent top coat

      • sh4hp on 26/10/2019 - 19:32

        Exactly! I saw the unboxing video a week before launch date, and their review of it got me hooked. The textured cracks of the ice and frosted skull was so cool in the video, and way cooler in real life. I happen to like the controller too.

        The whole bundle is just awesome. Too bad I don't need the month free live gold, and the game pass is only for new users and can't be added onto existing subscription (based on the card)

  • Sarge2401 on 26/10/2019 - 18:16

      I would recommend the limited edition gow version as it's also part of the trade deal.

  • cpox10 on 27/10/2019 - 11:04

    Can't see why not. Your receipt should have your xboxs serial number so they should be able to help. Do it before they send it back to headquarters which I think they normally do

    Is there much stock of the Gears console around, and are most stores happy to provide this version under the deal?

  • xwired on 29/10/2019 - 13:00

    This might be helpful for anyone that may have gotten an older stock from EB Games. You can get Microsoft to update your console's warranty date to 2 years from date of purchase if you provided them with a scan of your receipt.

    I got the white Xbox One X (Manufactured July 2018) from this deal and found the warranty was already more than halfway through when I unboxed it. Everything was brand new and the seals were intact so it doesn't seem like it was a pre-owned unit. Contacted Microsoft live chat and provided them the receipt and they reset the warranty to a full 2 years again.

    You can check your machine's warranty status here: https://account.microsoft.com/devices/

    Microsoft said that sometimes retailers activate the warranty of the machines before putting them up for sale and in this case, the console was sitting on the shelf for more than a year.

    • AzzaD on 29/10/2019 - 18:48

      Most likely would be better dealing with the retailer anyway though, right? If any issues or usually better to go to the retailer rather than the manufacturer directly?

      • xwired on 30/10/2019 - 10:12

        Yeah, I would say dealing with a retailer in person may be more convenient but it's good to have a fallback where you can deal with Microsoft directly. Their online service tools seem pretty good and you can log a repair directly with them by yourself. From what I've read, you then get a shipping label and send in your Xbox.

    • EnALup on 29/10/2019 - 20:18

      How do you see the manufactured date? I cant see it on the box. When checking online, mine says expiring 03/2021.
      what is the best way to contact MicroSoft Support. Multiple clicks took me to online virtual assistant.

      • xwired on 30/10/2019 - 10:07
        +1

        The date is printed on the back of your console, just above the serial number.

        You can try this link: https://support.xbox.com/en-AU/contact-us#0:2:5. Click "See other options", then "Show contact options". That should show the chat option and you should get a real person.

        • EnALup on 30/10/2019 - 13:31

          Thanks contacted them and they advised the date format I saw 12/3/21 was American and my warranty is till Dec. 2021. So all good.

            +1

            @EnALup: Sounds like your Xbox was made pretty recently. My guess is sometime around mid/late August 2019?

            • EnALup on 30/10/2019 - 21:39

              @xwired: No. I had Xbox Gold trial and Game pass cards inside which had expiry date of June 2019. EB Games advised to contact Microsoft. Not that fussed as these are available only for new accounts which have not tried trials.

              • xwired on 05/11/2019 - 11:45

                @EnALup: I was in the same boat. The cards in my white console package said redeem by 30 June 2019 and after checking with Microsoft, they confirmed the codes are still active and the expiry dates are usually not enforced.

                It's odd that your warranty is showing 3 December 2021 but your codes have such an old expiry date. Is your console made in 2018?
