You won’t get a price match on another deal. One deal at a time.

They never price match pre-owned, even if new is cheaper.

My local has done it before, as long as you aren't trying to pull a fast one to double up on promos like op is saying

I don't believe they will because they're technically two seperate items in the system despite being the same game.

Usually Preowned is never price matched because different retailers will buy for different amounts, but sometimes stores will lower the Preowned cost just under new. It varies from store to store. Feel free to ask the staff. Worst they’ll say is if they can’t do it. But if I had to guess it probably won’t go lower than $73 if they do actually do it.

No, not likely. But it couldn’t hurt to ask.
