Deal Details
GameStop has the arceus premium collection with $25 gift card for free essentially making it $75. Good price for a recently released item. I can't make it work on the app but the website works. It would not allow me to use the $5 monthly reward. Free shipping.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank ChrisC1884

Doesn't make it $75, it makes it $100 for $125 worth of total merch later.

I can't stand this reasoning.

Yeah and you're still paying tax on that extra $25, so it's still not like getting it for $75 even if you shop at GameStop super often.

A gift card is not equal to cash, find someone who will give you full value in cash for your gift card

Thanks for sharing your reasoning. I wrote essentially getting it for $75. If I'm going to buy something thereafter at regular price I use the gift card as I would cash/cc. It's how I like to reason, it's not wrong and I'm sure lots of ppl think this way. More than one way to skin a cat.
Skinning cats is bad, they're cute.

But it's not getting it for $75, you're still paying $100 for the actual item no matter how you spin it.

Yes, I'm aware you're getting a free $25 later, but that isn't making you not pay the $25 upfront.

You're free to think and rationalize however you wish, and getting the $25 GC with this is still wonderful, but you're still paying MSRP for the item itself.

Where are you paying tax on gift cards? Lol
You're not, but with OPs "reasoning", the difference of $75 and $100 is being taxed on that additional $25 still.

What if people have something they were gonna use the $25 gift card on anyway? It's essentially cash at that point. The only way your belligerent logic makes sense is if you value a $25 gift card from GameStop at $0. I suspect most people buying Pokémon cards have plenty of games they can easily apply the gift card to.

Real question is how do you get the $25? Just shows 99$ with no gift card.

Pulled the Rayquaza V alt from one ES pack in this box! The box itself is super pretty also if you have a display..
