Not in a thousand years. Besides, trading games at gamestop or similar stores returns you 5% of the game's market value.

Only if I'm desperate for a new game that I really, really want. I actually traded in 3 games for a copy of CV: OoE a few weeks ago cuz at the time I hardly had any pocket change to spare, and much of my paycheck had to be used for paying the bills and such.

Not since I was in high school and didn't have a job. With the exception of sports games I'll either trade in or sell them after a couple months of playing them.

I haven't traded in a game in a long time and wish I never had. That deal Gamestop gives is a rip off.

Goozex has offered a better way to get rid of games I didn't like or no long want.

Nope, I have never traded a game in. I don't think I will be trading any in any time soon either.

I usually keep the games unless they're utter crap.

Never. I am a collector and would be ashamed to trade in any of my games. I traded in the first Socom for the PS2 back before I *really* got into gaming and still regret doing it. When I had a desire to play the game again a few years later, I couldn't... then I bought a copy of Socom III and it just wasn't the same.

all the time. If I don't want a game any more, i'm not letting is waste space in my house, especially when it could be worth money to me, If i'm done with a game i sell it.

The only time ive ever traded in a game was when I bought resident evil:the essentials, I already had RE4 so I traded it(RE4) in to gamestop, they only gave me 5 dollars.

Use too, but not anymore. I would like to build a game collection to be honest.

I've never done it, and since it doesn't seem that you get anything out of it, I probably won't in the future.

I don't get rid of a game unless its crap and I usually try to sell them first, If I cant's sell them I trade them in at Game Xchange, a local chain of used video game stores. They usually give fairly good trade-in values. I traded in some old game boy advance games, they gave me $5 dollar trade in values for them, I was back in the same store and they were selling the games I traded in for $10. I felt they gave me a good deal, they have to make a living somehow. Gamestop's trade in values are horrible, they offered me something like $0.75 for a game that I traded in for about $5 at Game Xchange. I've only traded in about 10 games anyways, but I'm getting ready to trade in a bunch of games. The ones I will be trading in are some N64 games I got out of this old house my aunt bought, I'm trading them in because I don't have a N64 and never did. I also have some crappy games that I'm trading.
