Title: Gamers...

From now until November 19th Gamestop is doing a 30% trade-in credit bonus on any game when you purchase one of a list of selected new and soon-to-be-released games. List: Gears of War 3, Batman: Arkham City, Battlefield 3, Uncharted 3, Zelda Skyward Sword, Modern Warfare 3, Assassin's Creed Revelations, RAGE, and Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

That GOW3 promotion of a guaranteed $30 trade in credit looks pretty sweet too... now I'm considering buying it.

I was pretty excited when I saw that special. I have a ton of games to trade.

Not only do I have games to trade, but a several of these games I want.  Good timing, Gamestop.

I heard they like to sell open-box games as new (Ex Deus me!), so I'll pass on anything from Gamestop this season.

I invested in Gamestop last year and made a tidy profit.   They are well-run.  They are also one of the most shorted stocks around.  A lot of people just decided they were "the next Blockbuster" without knowing anything about gamers, the gaming industry, or even comparing debt loads.  Their loss.  I think Gamestop might eventually succumb to digitial downloads, but it's still a long way off IMO.
