EB January Pre-Owned Clearance

EB has a flyer listing pre-owned games they have on clearance. Games for systems include: PS2, X-Box, GC, PS, Dreamcast, and N64. Limit 1 of each title per customer.

Also have a Buy 2 Preowned DVD Movie and receive One DVD Free (Coupon Needed). Doesn't state Free DVD has to be used, but the lowest priced DVD from the 3 selected is free. I know it's probably implied that the Free DVD is used, but you never know.

Is it worth getting the pre-own games from EB?

RE is 14.99

Saw it a few days ago, picked it up with their discount card for 13.50.


I bought Eternal Darkness a long time ago, don't remember seeing it recently at the EB I shop in.

If the price is a few $s cheaper, I usually buy a new copy. If it's substantially cheaper, I might consider it. Check their guarantee on used games before you buy one.

You can return them if they skip, no questions asked. You have 7 days I believe.

It's definitely worth it if the game is a good bit cheaper than a new copy.

Thanks for the responds. There was a few games that I saw and the difference was less than $5 between new and pre-own.

Yeah for newer games it's usually only $5.

Best bet is for a game that's been out for a few months.

Usually then the Pre own is at least $10-15 cheaper than the new copy. Especially if it's something they have a lot of used copies of.

Does anyone have prices for the games? Are they the same prices as online or is this a B&M promo?

As far as I can tell they are the same prices as online. So Genma Onimusha is $14.99, Hitman 2 (XBox) is $34.99. I'd post the prices but the sheet is small print, double-sided. It would be worth your while to go down to an EB and pick it up, because you're bound to see something you want from the lists.

And right now, they've got a few deals going online. One is for free ground shipping ($4.99 value), the other is 20% off preowned games, so you can do the math and figure out which deal will save you the most. And now they have 20% off strategy books, which is stackable.

So I got Genma Onimusha for $14.99, the strategy book for $4.79 after coupon, and free shipping for a total of $19.78. Not a bad deal...
