Best Buy's PS4 trade in promo can make a PS5 or PS5 Pro much cheaper, especially when the $100 bonus stacks with the console value and the right SKU is in stock. The strongest reports show smooth in store pickups, quick scans, and totals around $300 to $325 for a PS5 Slim or about $380 to $508 for a PS5 Pro, with some orders also benefiting from PayPal cash back or gift card discounts. The main friction is that the trade in option only appears on certain listings, stock moves fast, and some stores need manager help or a return and repurchase to apply the credit. A solid upgrade path if you can match the right listing and process.

Common Questions (5)

  • The order is usually charged at full price first, then the trade-in is processed in store and the credit is refunded after approval. The $70 base trade-in may show immediately, while the extra $100 promo can post later as a refund or separate credit.

  • The base trade-in is typically $70 for a PS4 and $75 for a PS4 Pro, with an extra $100 promo coupon bringing the total to $170 or $175. Some 500GB trades were valued lower in-store, so the exact amount can depend on the model entered and the store's system.

  • Yes. A 500GB PS4 has been accepted in-store and online flows often default to the 1TB option, but the store can still process the trade-in and apply the promo. Some stores may value a 500GB unit lower than a 1TB/Pro, so the final credit can vary by model and how the employee enters it.

  • Yes. In-store trade-in has worked when the online attachment was unavailable, and staff can apply the $100 promo plus the PS4 trade-in value at checkout. Several stores required a return-and-repurchase or manager help, so bringing the promo page and checking stock first helps.

  • A PS4, one controller, and the power cord were enough in reported in-store trades. HDMI and charging cables were not required, and the console often was not powered on; staff mainly checked the unit visually and scanned barcodes.

By the looks of it, this will only work on the PS4 Slim with 1TB correct? I have the original PS4 model that I installed a 1TB on. Would this qualify for the trade in offer?
I have the same question. I wonder what would happen if

I just noticed that I should received $75 for my PS4 pro. They store employee entered in base PS4, so I only got $70. Not worth the time to go the store to fix that... For those doing this deal, make sure they enter the correct system config.
They just scanned the barcode or sku on the ps4

70 is the actual offer, an additional $100 is the bonus making it $170
Oh I meant just for the base trade-in value of the system. PS4 Pro is $75 and PS4 base is $70 which is credited as a gift card. The $100 bonus is a certificate. Note that this is in store so I don't know how the online works. Overall yes it is 170 or $175 depending on the PS4 system that you trade but it's just separate line items of discounts. It gets confusing

So finally was able to get one in store. Here is what worked for me -
1. Find a rep from the gaming section and ask to buy the PS5 slim 1TB
2. Show the Best Buy post of the deal https://www.bestbuy.com/trade-in/...22Deals%22
3. Go to the customer service with the rep and buy and tradein PS4 in same transaction
4. Net $300 for PS5

I traded the original PS4 pro so much older. For me they didn't even turn it on. They just asked to see the power cable and the controller. They pressed the buttons on the controller but with the system not even on what's the point.

I was able to catch a slim disc version restock available for pickup in my area.

I selected the 1TB Black PS4 option for trade in but tbh my system might be a 500gb, not 100% sure.

I was clearly the first person doing this promotion at my store because they were definitely overwhelmed.

They didn't test the system (even though I did before going) but they did scan it. I guess either my system is in fact the 1TB version or whatever they scan doesnt say whether it is 500gb or 1TB because they took it anyway.

I placed an order for the slim one but after a couple of hours received an email saying it is out of stock and I need to select another store. It shows out of stock everywhere. I will go to store tomorrow to see what I can do.

Sharing my trade-in experience. I did the pro online trade-in. I only had a 500 GB PS4. Went to the store with my PS4, they did not check if the system works, plug it in. they just took it they did everything on the screen and I got 70 off plus the 100. For those that are thinking about getting the slim, the cashier told me that he's done trade-ins both online and in store . The 170 promo applies to any PS5 purchased

When you ordered for pick up- which console did you choose and were you able to get the option to trade in? I've tried 3 different bundles and same one as yours yet I do not get an option to trade in

Ordered online and just visited bestbuy. My final pick up receipt only shows $70 discount. Asked rep there should be $100 discount from trade in coupon. Store rep said they will put full amount on hold/charge then, once it is picked up, will provide $170 refund but it takes few days. Also, my final pickup receipt shows $70 trade in credit and rep said $100 will be refunded later from bestbuy online. Is this correct? Anyone did online purchase and pick up?
Just had a similar experience today. Did you receive the extra $100 refund yet?
