Maybe I should do it as well, it's as good occasion as any. Never traded in games at EBGames before though (I usually avoid that place like the plague). How does it work anyway, how old can the games be (my guess is it's only current gen and one gen back?) and can I get any idea of the value in advance?
Be prepared for absurdly low trade in values. Depending on your edge card status the value is increased however but only slightly.
Yeah, thinking of just buying a 4K TV. It's too bad. If only I have a 1080p tv
If you can afford one, go for it
I upgraded my 2011 720P 32" Toshiba to 55" LG 4K 2016 model with an HDR 2 months ago, couldn't be happier
You can always wait for Black Friday for better deals
If only, hehe. Didn't find any games sadly.
How does the back up process work? It goes onto an external drive?

I don't game online so assuming the input lag isn't game-breaking then I should be fine. I'm also only looking for something between 43"- 49" so that should keep my options a bit cheaper. Any good suggestions from other brands with good HDR?
Will HDR even work if I'm using a receiver? I'd rather not have to compromise my sound system for quality picture.
That's exactly what I'm hoping for. I expect to melt my eyes straight out of my skull the first time I turn on the new screen.
I can definitely afford buying one. I just want to make sure it's worth it. How much did you buy for that? Around $1200?
Depends on the receiver. Do you know the model of your receiver?

PS4 Pro in 3rd of sales/preorders of all gaming on amazon.ca
its gonna be sold out isnt it?

I genuinely think the videogame chart on Amazon is complete fiction. I'll never forget the ouya being at number one for like a year and a half. It's clearly either really bugged, or something that can be bought.
Guys I just got this msg for my kijiji ps4
I said pick up only in ad for 220
"Sound Good...i hope this is not a scam because i want to buy this item for my friend as a gift.. am willing to offer you $400 for it including the total shipping fee and handling over to him .... Do you have a PayPal account so that i can transfer the money immediately.."
Is this a guy trying to scam me so he can cancel the PayPal after I ship it? Lmao
You could get a new one shipped for that cost!
Anyway I can report?

You can always plug the ps4 to the TV and plug a HDMI to the HDMI (Arc) on the tv and to an input on your receiver. And in the sound output setting on the tv select the HDMI arc as output. This will pass audio to your receiver.
Mine shipped out Saturday. Amazon said garunteed delivery was the 14th but Canada Post tracking has it showing up on the 9th
100% a scam. He's already setting expectations for a different shipping address. Paypal removes all seller protection if shipped to a different address vs what's listed on PayPal.

Hasn't shipped yet but should be delivered day 1.
man Kijiji shit scares the shit out of me
kinda why i'm going to ebgames
i guess i could sell it here, but nobody wants any OG unless they want their audio sep
Well I just hope some eyes on here see this incase they run into it.
Nice thanks.
I've always ordered my gaming stuff online from BB until recently when Amazon started with their direct delivery to my door. I'll take a courteous friendly Amazon delivery person over some grumpy mumbly courier anytime.
Mine is preparing for shipment for most likely shipping today or tomorrow. Says delivery for Thursday Nov 10. God I hope so.

They should really put it up a day before so that people have a chance to actually have it delivered on the 11th.
I really hope this launch isn't going to be a pain in the ass.
Vizio, costco.

That's a Nigerian scam. A friend and I fell for it years ago, and only because my friend didn't show me that one of the PayPal emails he received was from an @rocketmail.com extension.

I thought they were only for the US market and probably won't be sold here
Also from the NES mini thread, it looks like there may be average supply but the extra controllers will be scarce.

I got a PR email from Nintendo Canada that says they're gonna be $139.99 here. A touch over the direct exchange, but disappointing like every other video game price these days none-the-less.
Mine just switched to preparing for shipment about an hour ago (EDIT: Now it says being shipped today). It said it would arrive by the 10th, but going by my usual preorders, it'll arrive on the 9th.
Still need to get a 2TB hard drive for this thing.

Do we even know how much the NES Mini is going to sell for in Canada?
$69.99 or $79.99?
It is $59.99 in the USA which with current exchange rates is $80.30 Canadian, so I am guessing $79.99.

I'd like to jump on this to find out which GTA shoppers carries the biggest selection of electronics/games. They've all downsized that department since loblaws bought em, but they still exist...
Sold my ps4 to a guy at work for 250.
Even with showing him the rubbed off left stick.
Going to try every trick in the book to rid of the beep problem. It's not happening right now for a few months and if I can keep it from happening even for a couple months I won't be under the gun for that one.
Going to cross the border fri/sat to pick up my tv. Anything else just should grab while I'm on USA side?

Oh, you better be ready. 250 usd is 335 cad or 300 usd is 400 cad. I don't see them lowering the price for us.
What TV did you buy Haines?

Just had the ps4 pro delivered to me from amazon. This is the first time I've ever had anything delivered early. My launch ps4 was delivered a week after release by best buy. I'll never pre-order from them again.
Having the ps4 pro delivered a few days early from amazon has pretty much guaranteed that i'll pre-order any consoles from them in the future. This is probably a one time lucky occurrence though.

Yeah NOA already confirmed it will be $79.99.

Wish I had kept my Amazon order.
It was announced at the same time the US price was announced, $79.99 CAD and $12.99 CAD for extra controllers.

Caught the perks at work deal for a total of 1600 canadian.
Not cheap, but it retails at bb for 2300 up here so good enough
