GameStop Announces 'Trade Anything Day': Here's What Is Not Allowed
GameStop’s one-day event on December 6 offers store credit for almost any item except specified exclusions and requires items to fit a 20x20x20 box.
- For one day only, customers can trade almost anything for store credit at around 2,150 U.S. GameStop stores on December 6, the retailer says.
- The stunt grew from a charity tie-in that includes auctioning the infamous Staten Island Switch 2 stapler and marks the first time GameStop runs this single-day promotion on December 6.
- The promotion comes with strict rules, including a 20x20x20-inch measuring box limit, bans on gift cards, alcohol and tobacco, and customers may trade only one item each.

- Positioning itself as the trade-in destination, GameStop extends its trade-in identity and aims to generate publicity amid predicted cuts in holiday spending by consumers facing holiday spending pressures.
