Board 8 > Did yall ever do the Butterfinger thing for FFVII?

(+) Yeah! (+)

For the whole set, that is, the theme and the 5 items, The codes go for anywhere from 100 to 200 bucks on ebay

people seem to be much more hesitant to pay for more than 140 though, but there were a few biters

I did one set and I sold it with a copy I acquired. 280!

I'm currently working on a 2nd set but its for me though

Apparently "supplies are limited" so I guess they can run out at any time

---

I really wanted the Tifa dynamic theme but it's only open to US people... I wanted to post asking for a code but figured it might get modded, also it might not work since my PSN is set up in Canada. At least the free theme they released is pretty nice.

Also you got that much for a few chocolate bars? damn...

I wouldn't worry about any running out. The new Butterfinger tastes like ass

---

Things are selling for that high when you only have to buy 2 items to redeem? That's crazy

2 things for the Tifa theme but it was more for the rest

but still only like 20 bucks worth of chocolate bars tops, wasn't it?

its two candy bars per dlc item

the first time you do it, it gets you the first item AND the theme

so you have to make 5 purchases of two candy bars in total

a local gas station was having a sale and they were selling them for a dollar a piece so I've been saving

I haven't checked what the candy is going for at grocery stores

---

I did and I think they only recognized 6 of 10 candy bars. I'd dispute it but maybe I should just buy another 4 candy bars. No idea why it would sell for that much when candy bars cost a dollar or lesss.

---

well fuck i wanna buy some bars of chocolate

you sure that's not a money laundering scheme?

---

I'm gonna need the play by play

All I gotta do is buy two butterfingers and upload the receipt?

---

I was gonna do it but none of the Butterfingers near me have the FFVII packaging

They don't need FFVII packaging, you can just buy regular Butterfingers or Crunch or whatever and you upload a picture of the receipt.

---

I did the two candy bars to get the tifa theme. I don't care about in game items

---

I think my dollar store has 2 for 1 on candy bars

thinking that will be the cheapest

Its gonna ask for an email first but yes

---

Also one upload a day

---

Is anyone here who did it Canadian, or non-American generally, or are you all U.S.-based?

I mean if a Canadian was able to get it to work (without tricking the system or setting U.S.-based PSN settings) I'll go buy Butterfingers right now, damn.

Is this something to do with Palmer

---

yeah try like 25 bucks

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=ff7+remake+dlc&_sacat=0&LH_TitleDesc=0&rt=nc&LH_Complete=1

no one's going to buy it for 280 dollars, except punny buying it from himself

---

In the UK, you can get the DLC with Batchelors! https://www.winwithbatchelors.co.uk/

wait you can still get the tifa theme? i thought it ended

---

I wouldnt even remotely trust the Buy It Now ones. When the price discrepancies are that large, its most likely people buying from themselves to try and drive the price up. Bids are usually a better indicator because people dont want to waste that much time, and the auctions seem to be trending much lower.

---

They stop giving codes out once they run out or some time in May

That's not entirely true. People settle with buy it nows cause they're willing to just drop more money instead of dealing with the hassle of a bid war

well, thats why I said with such high discrepancies. If youre seeing as many, say, $20 sales as you are $200, something is fishy.

though that strategy of inflating the price works super well if you do it early enough

---

Most of those $20 - 25 sales are ONLY for the Tifa theme, doesn't include the other 5 items.

---

Yeah the $25 comment was just flat out wrong

the whole sets seem to be settling around 70-100 now, which is still really good. I dont doubt it was possible to get 200+ earlier, but at this point that seems unlikely

---

the promo website doesn't list the tifa theme as a prize?

---

I thought the Tifa theme was for playing the demo?

Or is that another another one?

---

Another one

Looking at the rules, there are specific ones you have to buy

Buy any 2 of these participating products in the same transaction, upload your receipt, and score DLC for FINAL FANTASY VII REMAKE.

• Butterfinger bar, 1.9oz or 3.7oz
• Crunch bar, 1.55oz or 2.75oz
• Baby Ruth bar, 1.9oz, 2.1oz, 3.3 oz or 3.7oz

wait so is it really worth me trying to sell this tifa theme and Midgar bangle

---

but I now have a far superior Zero no Kiseki theme from buying Zero no Kiseki Kai when it came out in Japan yesterday

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ZY1c6yUccw

---

Oh yeah, I redeemed the first few of these. They're crap as far as usefulness goes, probably balanced around the beginning of the game. I hope I didn't actually miss out on hundreds of dollars.

---

apparently the mako crystal can come in handy but I don't know the details

---

it protects against fire, ice, thunder and wind damage

but it doesn't say by how much and people say they haven't really noticed a big difference

so it might only be 1% for all we know.

---

i sold tifa and midgar bangle for $15

not bad i guess

---

The Tifa theme is great

She sits in front of your icons but not in an annoying way.
