ReZourceman Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 The fuck would anyone sell SSX Tricky?
Kirkatronics Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 The fuck would anyone sell SSX Tricky? LOL, cba playing games often anymore.
Paj! Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 I love Catwoman so much. It's just so funny. I love it. The fact that it's so slow paced and annoying.
Kirkatronics Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 I love Catwoman so much. It's just so funny. I love it. The fact that it's so slow paced and annoying. I quite like it too lol.
jayseven Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 If anything they'll offer you less money if you take in a whole bunch of games like that.
Ganepark32 Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Looking at that list of games the price breakdown will be probably £1 for the majority of the games and in some cases only about 50p for some of the other older games (such as half life). You may get more money for games such as Killer 7 but not much more. If you take it as £1 per game on trade you'd get about £79. I think you may probably get £80 + but only just. And this is Gamestation. At game, you'll probably be lucky to get £50 for the whole lot.
Kirkatronics Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 Ebay them? I might do, its the postage aspect that i dont like =[.
Raining_again Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 I might do, its the postage aspect that i dont like =[. TBH you've got very little other choice..
Tellyn Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 I might do, its the postage aspect that i dont like =[. You can choose how much the buyer pays for postage, right?
Kirkatronics Posted September 28, 2008 Author Posted September 28, 2008 You can choose how much the buyer pays for postage, right? Yea, but people get put off by high postage costs. TBH you've got very little other choice.. Ill have to find a friend with an ebay account. Should i put them on in 1 lot, 2 lots, or all seperatly?
MadDog Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Ive found out that Blockbuster give you good prices but its store credit?
Tom Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Yea, but people get put off by high postage costs. well, try charging fair postage costs then... Ill have to find a friend with an ebay account. Should i put them on in 1 lot, 2 lots, or all seperatly? or make your own account. its not exactly hard. And obviously sell the games individually. who on earth would buy 70+ games in one go??
Raining_again Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 or make your own account. its not exactly hard. And obviously sell the games individually. who on earth would buy 70+ games in one go?? qft, your "friend" isn't likely gonna want to take the responsibility if anything goes wrong.
Bren Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 ebay will also cost ya to auction, with not a guaranteed chance of sale, cut ya losses n go trade em in, a lot easier and a quick buck
Jimbob Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Out of both GAME and Gamestation, go to GAME and you will get far more money for trade-ins than you would at Gamestation. Or E-Bay them, up to you really. Games would usually set you back about 70p maybe a little more inc envelopes to send out.
Ganepark32 Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 ^ GAME won't give better trade-ins on those games compared with Gamestation. Trust me. I know Gamestation can be stingy when it comes to trade-ins but GAME is even worse.
ReZourceman Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Don't Gamestation match trade in prices anyway? Or did I miss-read something.
Ganepark32 Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Gamestation state that they won't be beaten on any trade-in price and will beat any if you can prove that somewhere will give you a better value for it. But they'll only beat it by £1.
Tellyn Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 qft, your "friend" isn't likely gonna want to take the responsibility if anything goes wrong. Wait, he was going to send them all at once? No wonder postage becomes an issue. My guess is you'd get more if you sold them individually.
Daniel Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 If you sell on ebay for 99p and charge a quid postage youve doubled your money that you would of got from GAME. Ebay wouldn't charge too much to list one game either. Only problem is you might not sell.
Deathjam Posted September 28, 2008 Posted September 28, 2008 Are game/station even taking xbox games anymore? I know at least the station isnt taking in gamecubes games anymore. Pissed me right off that did.
Gentleben Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 Why not put an ad in a local newpaper and ask for local collection. It cuts out the postage issue (Which is only an issue when people make it out to be one) I bet you could ask for £5 a game as well. EDIT- If you drive/have a friend maybe Carboot it all?
LegoMan1031 Posted September 29, 2008 Posted September 29, 2008 With alot of older games some places wont even offer a price/trade in. When i traded in my gamecube games year and half ago they only taken some of them like the big 'AAA' titles and gave me the rest back. Managers discression i think. I would prob just ebay them, it would be a hassle but u will most likely come out with more money.
