I get most of my games at Bestbuy. Atleast when I sell my other games to BB they have that 100% trade in. So if the game is worth $10 they give you $20 for it.

Them nikkaz is crooks. I started selling my used shyt on Ebay and haven't looked back ( @Mook :myman: ).

Well there you go, you found your answer.

But people in here are being pretty naive, unless you want to do more work like selling via ebay, craigslist etc then don't expect a corporation to try and be all fair with your money.

I think they key to getting the best outta Gamestop is going when you get an extra percentage out of trade-in's and know a good gamestop that wont try to genk you out of all your dough on them refurbished fees.

Personally I love trading games I`m completely through with, for 3 news games for $20 bucks.

i'd expect a 2 month old game to be worth more than a 5-6 year old game


i bet you work at gamestop:heh:.

Nah, i`m just a grown man who understands how the world works.

Rekkapryde got the right idea, if you want the best value, depend on yourself to get it.

Fact is anyone with a brain should know by now that Gamestop is going to buy your game for a lot lower than they're gonna sell it. Simple business 101 buy low sell high.

You walking in there shocked and upset and there $20 offer just is a reflection of how you have not come to grips with reality.

For a new game that just came out, 50% is a minimum being reasonable. But when you got other shyt that they are marking up 300% plus that is robbery man.

It's not robbery if the other person is a willing participant.

You can always walk out of the store, i`ve done it before when I feel their offer is way too low.

yeah fukk RapeStop :pacspit:

luckily when I'm too lazy/impatient to go the online route, there's an alternative place called Play N Trade by where I live that doesn't rip you off quite as much.

What you get in return for trading in some games is a slap in the face :pacspit:

Yeah but at that point, just leave then.

If any store tried to pull that shyt on me i`d be out like the trash on a Thursday

yeah, 'just leave' and not get the game I wanted. you have to realize that sometimes there were few alternatives. it wasn't like now with a bestbuy everywhere

Amazon >>>

For pre-orders and trade-ins. I don't go to Gamestop anymore unless I REALLY want a game right away. Plus I'm a Priime member and don't get taxed and can use the credit on whatever I want. :ohlawd::lawd:

One time I had a new game. I messed it up so I went to Walmart and got a brand new one, said that it didnt work when I got it. They gave me a brand new one, but they cut off the plastic. I went to gamestop right after, this fagggot cac gone take the game out and look at it talking about he'll give me 7 buccs for it :what: :snoop:

I never understand why people hate gamestop there are so many ways to get better deals on trade in and used games on amazon just stop shopping there if you dont like their policies worked for me :manny:.
