Trading in.

Do you regularly trade in games/consoles?

i seem to read that alot of people just get a game, beat it once as fast as they can, then trade it in.

i never really understood how that can be fun, but to each his own.

see alot of talk about trading in consoles too.

me, i dont trade in anything. i keep all my games/consoles. never know when you will get the urge to play an older game.

Do you trade in games/consoles? why?

I really only trade in a game if I feel it's so bad that I got ripped off. Not only do I want to get some of my totally wasted investment back, but I'd like to deprive the publisher of a future purchase as my little thank you for putting out such a crappy game.

I never trade games in anymore. You never get anything for them. I rarely buy new releases so that's to be expected. The last time I asked about the price of a trade was for RE5 about a year after release. They offered me $3.50. I laughed in their face and left the shop laughing. If I want the game or console out of my home, I go to craig's list of kijiji.

I used to be one of those types that balked at the idea of trading in games until I realized that I had a huge collection of games I had no intention of ever playing again. I've since parred it down to the gems and games that I couldnt give away if I tried.

I use to trade in games and systems all the time. Now I'm kicking myself in the ass becaue there are a lot of games I'd like to replay.

I trade in games from time to time but only if it's a game I really didn't like. I keep everything else.

I usually never trade in games or consoles, but I did make an exception this past weekend, and traded in my old 360 pro (its just been sitting in the closet after I got the newer 360 s) to get my wife a Wii (used aswell). I took it to a mom and pop video game store and did a straight up trade. I also traded in some of my original xbox games to get credit so my wife could buy some games for her Wii.

I tend not to trade stuff in, but my old 360 was just sitting in the closet and was close to breaking down (the disc tray would take forever to open and the 360 was LOUD) so I decided to get rid of it before I couldn't do anything with it.

I usually just sell them via Ebay or CL...but will occasionally trade to gamestop. But I have a few games that no matter how many time I play through them, I know Ill still want to llay them again sometime so I keep them.

If I ever do sell a game and want it again, Ill only buy it when I find it for the price I sold it for or less. Ex. buy a game for $50 sell for $25...if I want it again I wont buy it until its $25 or cheaper

since ditching consoles entirely in 2005, no

Only trade in to Amazon if I can actually make some money from a game I found at a yardsale or thriftstore. Otherwise its Ebay or Craigslist.

I only trade back in sh!tty games that I pre-ordered.

Prince of Persia the Forgotten Sands for example.

If you aren't going to keep the game it is better to beat it asap and then post it on craigslist a few days after launch for like $5-10 below retail. Sold probably 2 dozen games this year and it's a lot more lucrative than getting like $15 worth of store credit on a game they are going to sell for $54.99.

I don't usually trade consoles in, but I'll trade a game in if I can't stand the thought of it sullying my collection with it's presence. Canvas_Of_Flesh
