EB Games Wants Your PS5 Back Offering Launch Day ...
EB Games is offering a massive trade-in deal starting Monday, April 20th. Trade your original or Slim PS5 for $749.95 in cash or credit.
press-start.com.auHere’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting:
- EB Games Australia has run high-value PS5 trade-in promotions, including limited-time offers where Original/PS5 Disc models could be traded in for up to AU$749.95 in cash or store credit, with upgrade paths to a PS5 Pro or a PS5 Slim at discounted prices. These deals are typically time-limited, in-store, and often capped by the number of eligible devices (e.g., first 2,020 trades).[2][3][4]
- Coverage indicates the promotions are targeted at EB World Plus members and may include caveats such as device condition requirements, one trade per member, and regional restrictions (e.g., Western Australia sometimes has cash-trade limitations).[3][5][2]
- The promotions have been framed as “Wants Your PS5 Back” or similar campaigns designed to replenish pre-owned PS5 inventory for resale at a favorable price point, with upgrade incentives to move customers toward newer hardware.[5][3]
Notes and caveats:
- These are Australia-focused promotions and may not reflect EB Games operations in other countries (where policies differ). Always verify current in-store terms at your local EB Games before trading in.[2][3]
- If you’re outside Australia (e.g., Malta or Europe), EB Games-like programs may exist under different branding or with different values and conditions; local store policies will apply.
Would you like a quick summary of current trade-in values by model (Original PS5 Disc vs Slim Disc vs Pro options) and steps to participate, tailored to your location in Malta or a nearby EB Games market? I can assemble a concise checklist and a sample inquiry you can take to a local store.[3][2]
