Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks I took 10 games and they only gave me $26.40, that is crazy. :thumbdn1: I was mad they were gonna give me so little but those games were just gathering up dust anyways,.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Yeah you shouldnt have expected to get alot... my friend got like 192 for like his PS2, XBox, 4 controllers for each, a multi tap for PS2, and like 30 games.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks they do rip you off I traded in like 12 games recently and I got 31.90! Its bush league
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks I never understood how it works. So you just trade your games in and they buy them off of you? What determines the price of the games?
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Yeah, usually they don't give you much for trade-ins. Some stores just give you store credit so you're lucky you even got some money back. I think the best way of getting more money, even though I haven't tried it, would be to sell them on ebay or something. I'm sure that there are plenty of people who look for old games.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Some of them are so worthless it's better off keeping them than selling them for a buck.I sold 40+ of my XBox games for $150 at EB.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks I have about 15 XBOX games that I don't play anymore but are pretty good. How much could I get for all these games?NHL06Madden06NBA2k5CollegeHoops2k5NFL2k5NHL2k5TopSpinAmpedAmped2NBAStreet2NFLStr eet2Halo2MLB2005SplinterCellNARC
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks ^Well they give practically nothing for sports games, so you won't get away with much.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Maybe. I don't even think they would give a buck in for an 05 game.The only ones worth anything sports-wise is a year before or the year of.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Yeah you're better off selling it to your friends or ebay.I knew I was getting practically nothing for so many games but I really needed the money to buy the 360.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks I don't blame them for lowballing...they probably don't sell that many older/used games...
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Yeah I gave in 17 games and got $35 back those jewbags. But I still play and buy old nba games because of the roster. I still play NBA 2k3 becuase of Michael Jordan and there amzing 80's East team with Patrick Ewing and MJ!
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks well maybe its cause those are old games...I sold deadrising like a month or 2 after it came out and got $40 from EB.. Sold college hoops got $25 COD3 got $35

He's the best, like, ever!
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks Don't give them a single game, They rip you completely off. If you sold the games on Ebay you would make a fortune.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks You don't make much off eBay either, but definitely better than from EB. Gamestop seems to give you more than EB, but unless it's a new release then don't expect much from either. I just keep my games, I'd rather have them even if I only play them once evry few years then then the few dollars I'd get for them.
Re: EB Games' trade-in sucks They base it off 40% of what they are going to sell it for so a xbox is round $100 so they'll give you $40.For the games they base it of off condition,how old the game is,how popular the game is.I would say finding a person who doesn't have that system and selling it to them for 70% of the value you first bought it for instead of trading it in or selling it on Ebay with all those risks.
