Post by: whiteyfox on October 13, 2014, 03:18:46 pm
Just a quick question.. Should I make different entries for promotional copies?

Thanks in advance.

It depends on what kind of promotional copies are we talking about. What are the items and what makes them different from the normal retail versions?

The front of the cover is different, and the cover on the disc as well.

If the cover or disc are different, then it's a new entry. I thought you meant something with a "Promotional" sticker or a slash over the barcode.

What I meant is exactly like the (tiny) image below, just Xbox One. :P

Add the item with (Promotional Copy) at the end of the title, and mention the specifics on the item description. Try to at least have a scan of the cover, too, so people can separate that from the normal retail version.
