GameStop 50% on trade-ins

[Kush77]

I usually can't stand Gamestop, but I went there today to trade some stuff in and they had 50% bonus for every trade in.

So if you have games you want to dump, now would be the time.

And if you have the edge card thingy, you'll get 60% extra.

And since I'm a math genius, you trade in a 10 dollar game, you'll get 16 for it instead.

To bad I never trade in my games. For some reason I always keep my games whether I will play them again or not.

same here. i think of myself as not only a gamer, but a collector. i've only traded in two games before and that was 2 PS2 games: The Hobbit, and Lord of the Rings: The Third Age...and i do not miss either one of them.

I always tell myself that I'm gonna build a big library, but I never end up doing it.

I'll trade stuff in if I know I'm not gonna play it. I traded in UFC 2010. I'm not a UFC fan and I'll never get around to playing the game. So I ended up getting about 38 bucks trade in on it.

With all the stuff I traded in I ended up getting a DSi for the kids. Not bad for games I was done with.

I think the only games I ever traded in were some PS2 games when they had a deal for 3 games and your PS2 and get a PS3 for like $100 off. I got rid of San Andreas, Madden '06 and some other game. I had two copies of Madden '06 cause McNabb was on the cover lol

how much do you think they will give you for nba 2k10?

i was thinking of trading it before the value went down, and i can get the new nba 2k game when it comes out.

At this point in the year, especially since they announced 2K 11 and the hype for that started, maybe 7 or 8 bucks?

But with the 50% and 10% you'd probably anywhere from 11-15 bucks. But that's a guess.

The problem with the yearly sports titles is they drop fast. Then you get nothing for them. I remember one year trading in Madden 2002 (the day Madden 2003 came out) and getting 3 bucks for it. Now I can say "for 3 bucks I might as well keep it" but on the other hand, once I have the new Madden will I ever play the old one? No. So I'll usually end up trading it in.

My buddy sells a lot of used games on ebay and he said he ends up getting more in cash that trade.

I normally trade my stuff in at gamestop/ebgames. I know there's more money to be made selling online, etc.

But when I trade, I trade smartly. I trade in at peak value and try to take advantage of deals such as this one.

One thing that I've done with people on other forums that I used to visit is... whenever someone was getting ready to get rid of a game, they'd offer it 1st to someone they know from the forum that way both parties benefited.
