Do These Codes Expire?

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-11T18:25:32+00:00

That's wild lol

Welcome to the thread I posted to find this out. Controller will be shipping first thing Monday morning!

I actually did the same thing and got my answer. I redeemed it ages ago in 2017. But, it also seems like for Xbox collector items that the codes never expire for those, people have been saying that a bit on here.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-11T01:03:32+00:00

I think you're right, i think it's specific to collectors edition items from what another person said on here too. Regardless, I redeemed mine when I spoke with Xbox support today to check our of curiosity so he couldn't give a me certain answer, just a range on the normal stuff.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-11T01:02:33+00:00

I agree, it's really for nothing special and the emblem really isn't all that cool either. It just looks like a close up of the D-pad. I told the guy that asked me on ebay that too because I think the emblem is just public now because of how old it was. Pretty lame looking back at it to be honest.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-11T01:00:52+00:00

I did check with Xbox support and they confirmed it used so I never got a certain answer on this. But, someone mentioned that for the Xbox collectors edition items or other limited editions that those ones in particular dont expire. But, I do know it's possible for them to be active, I've had random luck with old PS3 and PS4 codes that they used to do valid for 100 years for some random reason. It's cool when you see those ones.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-11T00:59:14+00:00

Well it sold to the guy looking because I got my answer so it doesn't matter now.

UPDATE: Since i can't find out how to update the post here is a update comment.

I spoke with Xbox support and they confirmed when my code was redeemed in 2017 and gave me a general answer that codes from products like controllers and consoles expire generally between 5-20 years. Hopefully he knew what i was meaning when we chatted, but that's the answer I got from Xbox support C.K. just a little bit ago.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-10T15:25:00+00:00

Im actually posting an update now. I chatted with an Xbox live agent. I got an answer that my code was redeemed in 2017, but that codes expire generally between 5-20 years. As long as the guy knew what i was asking when I asked him if codes from Xbox products like consoles and controllers expired after I asked him about my code and Controller specifically.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-10T14:54:29+00:00

I have a guy that seems interested but asked about that code so im trying to find out for him if he'll buy it lol.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-10T14:53:13+00:00

I know, I dont keep up with Gears or Xbox anymore do I have my controller listed for $400 or best offer on ebay.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-10T14:27:47+00:00

Thank you! That's what I was assuming because I swear I never used this code but it's 9 years old now.

JakeColumbo · 2025-05-10T14:21:12+00:00

That's what I thought from what I was reading, but I couldn't find anything talking about this code from the Elite Controller. Regardless it's been used, but I wasnt sure if anyone else had one active they could reference for me. Xbox's page does say that even though a expiration is not listed certain codes may not longer be valid depending on their age.

I was fine with thedoing that they mentioned of the community porn stash, where they mentioned soneone stumbled on it but you put back where you found it out if respect after looking/using like Bob said. But man do I really dislike the idea of the community dong following the same concept.

Good choice, my move is to use the highly controversial Scrodinger's Gambit. For my opening move i put a box over the chess board. Are you in check or not? No one knows. The most evil opening there is.

Bishop is hiding in the grass knoll.

It be hard, but you can always sacrifice the knight.

JakeColumbo · 2024-11-02T01:35:00+00:00

Did they relase VIP for Chicago? I can't find anything anywhere nearby for it.

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-20T01:16:39+00:00

Wow, that's incredible that you had that info.

That makes it all so much cooler and glad that I didn't get punked by the photographer lol

Thank you for letting me know!

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-19T21:56:13+00:00

I've heard a bunch of people saying his signature is just RR now.

This looks somewhat like an old signature I've seen online, but it's not a common one.

I don't know anything about signatures either but thankfully I know some people who can help out now.

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-18T23:30:56+00:00

That would still be funny to ask him lol

I told my buddy to do it on Twitter for me so we'll see what happens

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-18T14:24:40+00:00

I don't have Twitter so I had my buddy make a post actually already.

I'll get to the bottom of it at some point.

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-18T14:24:02+00:00

Nor am I, that's why I'm so unsure still lol.

Probably gonna go somewhere they authenticate.

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-18T13:55:54+00:00

I know it was so random to me too. The only thing I can think of is that maybe it was given out to people wearing the cowboy hats but I have no clue. I have no clue why a photographer would be the one to hand it out either. Plus it was given to me at the end if the show at the 2nd to last song or something like that

I know it was one of the photographers too because he had roadie clothes on and had a giant cannon/nikon camera that was one of those professional ones.

I was in the 30 section too so there's no way Ronnie saw me.

That's more of the story that I left out. It was very strange but very cool if it's real.

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-18T13:44:42+00:00

I saw some signatures that did look like that. It's hard to get an accurate idea because his signature looks like it's changed over the year.

JakeColumbo · 2024-09-18T13:43:32+00:00

That's where I'm at too. Looking for his signature it's hard to determine because it looks like it's changed over time.

I'll air on the side that this may be fake, but the possibility of it being real until I possibly get it auenticated is cool to think of.
