They have a special going on right now where you can bring in 3 games and get an extra $10 in store credit. I HIGHLY recommend this if you have a big ol' pile of games you never play like I did.
So I have $272 is store credit now. Good stuff. Problem is, will I even be able to GET a Wii from Gamestop?
They're still not taking preorders, and it occurred to me that 4,000,000 worldwide isn't as much as I had first imagined it to be. With Amazon Wii preorders selling out in under a day, frankly, I'm concerned about my chances of getting one, even if I do have some connections to the folks at Gamestop.
I've heard rumors that Gamestop might not even be doing preorders at ALL and that we'll be looking at a "line up at midnight" scenario. Being the type who prefers to not be dragging ass at work the next day, I'd prefer to preorder.
Anyone else sharing similar concerns?

Remember that profit of that magnitude has to be reported to the IRS as income.

I would not be too surprised. I just sort of want to know how they are going to spin this to avoid getting in trouble with the law.
Extra promotional stuff is ok with the trade in things but, forcing a consumer to use non-currency items to obtain something from a store is illegal. All stores at their physical locations must take cash to buy goods and services. Its a law. I'm fairly sure its Federal.
That being said it means it sort almost has to be bogus. (Or me and the BBB can figure it out.)
Depends what country you're in... but that's not really the case in the US. You're required by law to accept currency as payment for debts only, not sales. You're perfectly free to refuse, for instance, to accept a jar of pennies as payment for a TV set, and while I can't possibly understand why you'd want to, you're perfectly free to refuse currency altogether if you wish.
