I've done this.
I swear I don't understand Amazon. Sometimes they behave like petty assholes and refuse to make trivial changes to your order for absolutely no reason and sometimes they'll act with so much goodwill it's baffling.
I called them because a product they sent me had a defect and didn't work and they basically refunded me on the spot and told me not to bother sending it back. Like wtf ? They basically just took my word for it. Compare this to last time when they refused to split one of my orders into two shipments for absolutely no reason and I didn't want to cancel and re-order because I had bought the items during Black friday and didn't want to end up paying regular price. I had to wait a month to receive my shit because one of the 5 items was OOS.
Amazon CS is so YMMV it's crazy.

Xbox One EA Access 12 Month Subscription - Digital Download Code for 28.99 @ Costco
It seems no taxes too. At least for ON residents. You are saving $4.90 based on rfd

Got it yesterday
Nice I'm getting mine Monday but I ordered it release day. No preorder stuff for me
That site is dead and buried. You can try, but I wouldn't trust any of the info there anymore.
My copy of GR2 shipped last night as well. The E3 discount wasn't properly applied, but I had no issue contacting Amazon and getting the difference refunded. This actually happened with a couple other items in that order (Monster Hunter, Pokemon) last year as well. Wonder what the problem is.

I wonder if physical copy of Zelda WiiU will be available.
Was it from E3 2016 where the 20% is wonky?

I'll be taking a screenshot of my 25 dollar Lego city undercover switch.
They already took my gift card money for the game, so technically I already purchased it. Can they do anything about that?

do 3ds games need the case to be traded in at ebgames?

No(they might give less though?).
People are still updating it, and all the values were correct for every game I traded in, except Star Fox Zero wasn't on there so maybe they just don't have the newest games.
Glad I got the values secured on random games then
Glad I traded my stuff in sooner then.
Damn. I wonder how much Last Guardian went down by. Going in to trade it today. At least I got all my other trades done already.
Not surprising. That's why I traded in as soon as I could.

Crap, I'm going there tonight. Hopefully it doesn't apply to all games.
Anyone know if Mario Maker is still $56? Might trade it for MK8 Deluxe.
Terrible, right? And where in the world is the BOTW Limited Edition + the BOTW amiibo while they are at it...
Since no retailer is listing those in Canada yet I'm guessing they're waiting on Nintendo for the go ahead.
I know they will all go up either while I'm at work, or asleep and I'll miss everything. The life of Nintendo fans in Canada..
At this point, I'm already paying up the butt for everything, I might as well just start importing.

same with me, glad i traded in Star Fox Zero last night while it was still $56
I think i was affected by the GR2 pricing too, can you tell me what was the correct pricing?

"Survival Pack". I believe "madhouse mode" unlocked, as well. Not nice if it's for .com only.

Amazon doesn't have Fire Emblem Echoes up but it has had both the Fire Emblem Switch games for at least a week. Like, come on guys.
I got my PSN code for the Survival Pack yesterday. Still no game though :/
For me, I actually had no clue whether I wanted to sell The Last Guardian or keep it since I hadn't played it when I first went in to do the trade a week ago.So were people just sitting on games to trade, waiting to have a big pile or something?
Don't do that, people! Especially when they're offering $56 for a critical dog like Star Fox Zero
Played it over the last three days and decided to do it.
But yeah, go right now people. The trade values are only going to get lower, not to mention the 2x value promotion is done on January 29th.
It made me sad when I went over onto the .com side and saw some of the games we don't have yet... not to mention the prices, haha.
Which store do you normally trade in at? I asked Park Royal in West Van and Metrotown, and they both said they do trade ins all day, but YMMV on any of the other ones though, cause one of them said "unlike some stores" when I asked, haha.
Hearsay is that there might be slight adjustments made by store(and/or district?) managers depending on demand and influx, so it's possible there will start to be some varying tivs, especially with high traffic games like Star fox and people being able to get for cheap and trade in.
Yeah they'd be fine since they're in West Vancouver and Burnaby. My Switch pre-order is at Oakridge which is Vancouver proper =[
