Trade-in deals bypass price hike.
Smart consumers are taking advantage of various offers at retail to buy Activision’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 for less than half the recommended retail price.
The publisher has been heavily criticised for pushing up the console RRP of the latest from Infinity Ward to £54.99, but a cut-throat retail market is providing consumers with a number of options to avoid paying the inflated price.
UK retailer Gamestation is currently offered the game for £4.99 if a consumer trades in two games from a list that includes WET, Overlord II and Sacred 2: Fallen Angel. With Play.com selling Overlord II for just £9.99, users on website hotukdeals have already begun buying two copies of the Codemasters’ title and trading it in for a pre-ordered copy Modern Warfare 2.
