GameStop-owned EB Games Canada went ahead with their Animal Crossing release event, despite mandatory lockdowns in some provinces.
None of the provinces are in lockdown yet. I can still go into a mall and go shopping if I want to.
Boxing Day is in just two days, but don't stress because we've got you covered! Read on for the best Boxing Day deals in Canada.
Wow so the Boxing Day Sale is a real thing in Canada. Someone earlier said that they would never get console sales for Boxing Day... it looks like they were wrong.
it’s always been our biggest shopping day. We didn’t even have black friday until about 5 years ago, but boxing day deals on electronics and games have been going longer then i could remember
EB Games Canada is ponying up a little extra cash for your pre-owned PS4 and Xbox One titles
Followed shortly by a wide expansion of games they won't take, and further exclusions based on volume.
But still, the fact that they're doing this shows that the "Circle of Life" story hurt them pretty badly.
Exactly, I don't see them giving $10 for a copy of an old title that they have hundreds of on the shelf.
Gamestop bought EB Games (Formerly Electronics Boutique) years ago. They're branded that way in Canada, but its the same company with the same policies.
I can confirm this is exactly what they did (cut the list of acceptable games after the hype got out).
Also, each store makes up their own rules. EB Games is a sham. They also sell opened unsealed games as bramd new. I would never buy from this conpany.
I've worked there. The next thing is a massive list of titles they won't take, Destiny will likely be one of the first. People turned right around when they heard the trade in value. Don't give them credit until they can do this without putting out a massive list (one they'll likely keep internal until the program is live) and not say a word to anyone, only informing customers as they bring in individual titles. This is typical EB. The just went through a mass execution of perfectly functioning hardware and software from the PS2 and original Xbox Era last year. These people don't give a crap about gaming.
