3 dollars for Professor Layton 8 cents for Elite Beat Agents. How am I supposed to do a trade with this?

I only ever trade in consoles there, and only when they run special deals where you get bonus credit. Trading in games just isn't worth it

yeah, it's a complete waste. You're better off doing a garage sale or something.

Trading in at gamestop is about as stupid as trading in shit at a pawn shop.

They want to make money off your stuff so they'll ALWAYS pay you the absolute minimum. If you want to get what your items are worth then sell them directly yourself online.

The worst part is I like Gamestop. They treat me good there and I tend to go there first. But 8 cents, really?

you're trading in games that nobody really wants right now so what do you expect? $40 for games they probably won't sell?

I once traded in 10 games to a local gaming shop. They gave me 40 bucks.

Little did I know at that exact time, Gamestop was doing a special deal. Trade in 7 games and get 100$ on top of the trade in value...

Gamestop isn't so bad

It's true, it was on the same day as the Mass Effect 2 release, the whole reason I was trading in games.

It's funny that they advertise trade in prices for games that JUST came out.

I literally saw a "Get a GUARANTEED $30 for trading in Destiny 2".

Like that's some BFD or something.

They have a set pricing structure based on the regular price of a new copy for used games so the "guarantee" comes from the margins they want to maintain.

I usually agree that GameStop is pretty skimpy, but yeah. Those games...lol
