Frequently asked questions

Can I pick up my online orders at GameStop stores?

Oftentimes, you will be able to pick up your online order at a local GameStop, especially if you’re buying a new release. If you’re buying pre-owned products (especially items like retro games or accessories), your local store might not have them in stock. In that case, you’ll need to have those products shipped to you.

Can I pre-order games and consoles?

Yes. Pre-ordering ensures you’ll have access to new games or consoles as soon as they’re released and that your products won’t be sold out before you can buy them.

If my product is damaged, can I still trade it in?

If your product is damaged, you might still be able to trade it in. For example, GameStop does accept broken or dead electronics like tablets and smartphones. You might also be able to trade in games, consoles, and accessories in less-than-prime condition, but you might not receive full value for your trade in. If you’re unsure, it’s best to ask a representative at your local GameStop store.

Can I get a refund for my PowerUp Rewards Pro membership?

Yes; you can get a refund for your Pro membership if you return your card to a GameStop store within 7 days of purchase.

Pre-owned products at GameStop are typically 10% cheaper than buying new (20% cheaper for Pro members), and you have a 7-day window to return any pre-owned product for a refund if you don’t like it. As long as you’re okay with your games or consoles not being factory-new, buying pre-owned is a great option — especially considering GameStop inspects pre-owned products before reselling them.

You can find a variety of pre-owned products for sale at the GameStop website, including:

Current- and previous-generation consoles

Games

Accessories

Electronics (smartwatches, smartphones, tablets, etc.)

GameStop’s website has a Trade Values section, where you can see what your games, electronics, consoles, or accessories are worth. Type the name of your product into the search bar, and you’ll find your product’s value in the form of trade credit and cash. You’ll typically get a higher value if you trade your product for credit; however, you can only use the credit at GameStop.

You’ll also find Current Trade Offers in the Trade Values section. Here you’ll see special deals for trading in your products. For example, you may find deals for extra credit or guaranteed credit when you trade your products for promoted games and consoles at GameStop.
