    Wait till you hear my story... so my Naas gamestop employs a clueless one and an ape, who was in the tacky Fifa jersey, said they only got in 2, TWO copies of Ronaldo edition, also said he was working until 2am... so what was he selling then.. think the huar just didn't wanna sell it to me.

    Cex will give you 42 cash for Fifa.

    GameStop will give you 40 cash or 50 store credit

    Think I saw it's 99.99 for that one.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,521 ✭✭✭joe123


    Do they require a HDMI cable and an ethernet cable as part of the trade in? Cant even remember did I get an ethernet cable with mine.

    Secondly, do they need the box or not? Im off Friday so might pop into the Galway shop to see if I can get this deal.

    I posted it in the PlayStation Bargain Thread last week. Like Mickeroo said I think it was €99 to upgrade.

    It is €99, not worth it moving between the PS4 and the slim tbh.


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭johnf26


    Don't need the box either


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,866 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    Rang them a little while ago as I am at work and was told that I can leave the console in today for testing and that I would then need to come back in on Friday to collect the console. Guy on the phone said the offer does not start till then and anyone claiming to have gotten it today or last night is telling lies.

    Should show them the facebook post with all the people posting pics of their new console.

    I think at this stage it's confirmed you can get the deal now. But also that there is no rush, unless you want Ronaldo edition as it is time limited.


  • Registered Users Posts: 641 ✭✭✭johnf26


    Today's purchase

    They'll run out of stock of Xbox though will they not?
    Or get too many on the uptake.

    I knew from last week you could get it, just wish staff would hurry up and catch on. One of the lads from work went in on lunch and was told that the offer is from Friday. The other person in there was putting the deal through for customer there and then. To be fair, it is Gamestop so it is expected

    Doubt it, new stock of hardware is pretty much constant.

    Bought mine just there now - figured it was worth nipping home for at lunchtime. Even talked to the same fella who’d told me to leave it til Friday! (Pardon the paranoia in the pic - never a fan of posting pics of receipts!)

    I'd be in there right row, demanding my fiver back :D


  • Registered Users Posts: 277 ✭✭Mikey23


    Sure I know, but with what I was getting I felt like I should be sprinting out of there!


  • Registered Users Posts: 416 ✭✭Faker74


    I already have a 500GB One S, but the idea of getting FIFA 18 and FH3 for a total of 70 quid is pretty sweet.
    Anyone know if I can get in on that deal?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,717 ✭✭✭honda boi


    Got the game protect on my receipt aswell.
    Assumed it was included in the price since its meant to be €69


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


    They put to game protect on mine to get the total into a positive number :pac:

    go into gamestop and ring the head office yourself and tell them to ring the store and explain the offer to the staff
