To clear up any confusion;

I just went in and the guy told me that as long as they have any value when scanned, you can trade them until the 26th. This is the store manager.

His own words "crazy deal"

I took the minecraft creeper one and another for 10 each.

What shop was this is?


I really want that pig controller lol

The Dench

Was in Gamestop in the Square, Tallaght about an hour ago. Shop really busy but staff extremely helpful. They told me the deal was still on.

Popped upstairs to CEX, bought 4 games @ € 5.00 each - back down to Gamestop. Got two Minecraft controllers (one pink, one green) - valued at € 90.00 each - Cost me € 20 each.

Happy Days !!!!!

Myself and ibFoxer managed to get the controllers in the Crescent, Limerick yesterday evening.

They games used were fifa 16 and battleborn. Fifa 15 will not be accepted!!

She had told someone prior to us arriving that the deal wasn't on, if you're reading this she said she's sorry :P she only got it working for us as we had a copy of a receipt from stone who nabbed one in mallow.

Was just there, got the deal but only on the white or black controllers, they were no longer including the Minecraft or unique ones, said people bought them and we're trading them in (I'm looking at you haha) still a fantastic deal
Traded in, destiny, Wolfenstein, ac unity and shadow of Mordor

WarpAsylum

As far as I'm aware, you can still but the unique controllers with the deal, only you have to pay maybe €20-25 instead of €10. At least that's what we were told last night in the Crescent.

Ah they saw ye coming only messing.

Got another minecraft one for the nephew and a recon tech for myself and both were 9.99 each

He actually brought me up one of each and had loads of the shadow red ones.

No consistency with them I guess. Although the lads in William street in limerick are extremely helpful.

Nice rubberised grips on it and it's pretty tastefully done. The had them in both colours too.

honda boi

Was in Dundalk so popped into cex and they didnt have any cheap games left ,cheapest was €8 each so bought 2 for €16 .
Games were destiny and battlefront.
Went to gamestop got the grey and green controller for €10
Picked up FIFA 16 there for €1
Have destiny at home so gonna go trade them in tomo and hopefully they take FIFA 16
So €26 for a new controller,not bad

Blanchy90

Got sorted

I rang and was told the games counted for the deal so I went to cex and bought fifa 16 (x2) destiny and battle( something) for €21

I really dont need 3 controllers but I couldn't choose between these two

Ivefoundgod

Similar to above, cheapest games in Cex were €8, bought Destiny and PES 2016. Traded them in and got this for €9.99 Delighted and works perfect with my gaming laptop over bluetooth, much more seamless than the DS4.

erkifino

Thanks OP. Picked up a standard one today.

I think they must have developed time travel. Buying our 'junk' for pittance then going back in time and selling it at a premium.

honda boi

Anyone try navan store?
Father rang for my brother and was told that offer was 2 weeks ago even tho I only received the email the day before

I tried fifa 15 this evening and they would not take it so picked up titanfall in store and traded it back and got both mine craft controllers for 4 games that were only valued at one euro each. Great deal
