Selling used games

I have a few Wii games that I don't think I will have time to play, or that I will miss if I get rid of them.  Where is the best place to sell them?  I looked at Amazon trade in, and they would only give $35 for Metroid Prime Trilogy, and the rest were $6 or less (pikmin 1 and 2).  Any suggestions on where to get the best deal?  Thanks.

Amazon.

Ebay. Trading in anywhere is usually a ripoff, Craigslist will also be nothing but lowball offers.

Thanks for the replies.  I'll look closer at Amazon.

You can still Craiglist them, you'd definitely get more than in trade-ins.

You would get more on Ebay, but there's a charge for everything (the listing, the percentage fee for selling a game, the Paypal cut to transfer from Paypal to your bank account, etc..) , it's between 20 to 25% of the final price in fees (I calculated it about a year ago, I think it's close to 23% in total fees from final price sold). Oh yeah, you have to ship them as well, and if it's in a different country, you have to fill up customs forms for shipping (not too complicated, but still more work).

- I'd list Metroid Prime Trilogy at least for 80$ MINIMUM (I'd list it at 100$, since it's in demand and often sells on Ebay over 120$ (as long that it's complete and in very good contition). It's not a price written in stone, but there would be very little negociation.

- Both Pikmin's you'd get a lot less. They sell them in a lot of stores used for 15$ each. Not as much in demand and you can still find Pikmin 2 (wii edition) brand new. Also, the Mini Wii has a package including Pikmin 2. If I wanted to sell them and someone offered me 20$ for both, it's a done deal. More likely someone will try to lowball you hard on these. The first game's a little more difficult to find than the second.

And lowballers, they can still try. I wouldn't even respond to someone offering me 20$ for Metroid Prime Trilogy. Seroius offer for the bunch should be close to 100$. I'd probably say yes to 90$ for the bunch.

Wish you the best selling these games for value, you just need to find the right buyer. Start worrying about selling these only after a couple of weeks posted on craigslist.

The best sale value I got from my posts in the past had no price tag on it (received many offers, and sold it to the highest offerer, which was very close to full value).

Thanks for your help.  I've never used ebay or amazon to sell anything.  I've only used craigslist a few times, and it can be an interesting experience.  I think I'll try craigslist for a bit, and then go to amazon if I don't get what I feel is fair.  For me, the goal is to get more than a trade-in would give me, but to sell the games for less than buying used at gamestop or somewhere similar.  I think that is what makes both parties happiest in the end.  The seller gets more return, and the buyer gets a great deal.  That's the goal anyway.  I'll see how it turns out in the end.
