Overview
- Shoppers can bring almost any item that fits a 20×20×20-inch box to trade for GameStop in-store credit on December 6.
- Store employees have discretion to accept or reject items, and the company has not published a centralized valuation method.
- GameStop’s exclusion list bars hazardous materials, lithium-ion batteries, weapons, alcohol, drugs, explicit items, TVs, gift cards or currency, jewelry, and most live or dead animals, though taxidermy is permitted.
- The promotion runs across roughly 2,150 U.S. locations, extending the retailer’s trade-in model to non-gaming items for a single day.
- Coverage notes this as a holiday traffic play as consumers pull back on spending, with credit usable for games, consoles, accessories, collectibles, and merchandise.
