OK, OK... we've all been there. Almost all of us have tried to sell something to them, mostly brand new and they usually give you about 5-10 bucks. WHAT'S YOUR WORST RIP OFF? Mine is when I tried to sell a brand fucking new copy of "King Kong: The Official Game Of The Movie" for the Xbox 360, they want 4 cents for it. bullshit.
I dont sell games :saddowns:
ps2 game GUN 2$
Xbox 360 - 20 dollars in-store credit. Haha fuck
They're almost as bad as the fucking dealerships. To scale ofcourse, but seriously.

[QUOTE=DesolateGrun;19434590]20$ for my original Xbox, It's at least 60$[/QUOTE] I had an experience like that. PS2, used, works great. Came with 41 games, 9 of them being new. $15 :wtc:

I got 60 bucks for 2 ps2 games, both of which were used. But yeh, I've been ripped off too. I tried to sell them Sonic on the 360 (birthday present, I didn't actually buy it) and they offered me 4 bucks. Whaaat the fuuck.
I tried to sell some games over there. Saw that some of the discs were scratched. They charge me a fine for the CD's. What the fuck.

I got a gamecube as a gift, brought it into gamestop unopened and they offered me $25, when it still had the $200 price tag I believe.
I don't even shop there anymore
It was probably 2-3 weeks after the game came out but but I tried selling back Time Crisis 4 (90$) they gave me 16$. But I took it cuz that game sucked. At least for playing at home, arcade is still enjoyable.
I once sold a severely scratched Perfect Dark game, it barely ran, and I got $20 for it. :smug: Oh, shit, this doesn't work with this thread! Curse you OP! :bahgawd:
I'm surprised so many people actually sell their shit to EB/Gamestop when everyone knows that they give you so little for it I've never and will never give anything of mine to them
off topic but would going to a pawn shop give you a better deal?
[QUOTE=GarrysDad;19452946]off topic but would going to a pawn shop give you a better deal?[/QUOTE] Yes they would, Ive actually done it before do to the fact that I can walk to a pawn shop within 5 minutes, my Gamestop (EB games, same thing) is about 20 mins away. But, they did give me a VERY decent price for about 8 old PS2 games, I'd say about $40 I got.
[QUOTE=OzzyOsbourne;19434555]brand new?[/QUOTE] Got it for Christmas, had it for a week and a half, then brought it in. Everything included, two controllers, ect.
i dont have a rip off but they wont sell you an M rated game[B] if [/B]you have a parent and that [B]they[/B] say it's okay

$15 for one Nintendo DS game
I got like 2 bucks for Pokemon Sapphire 3 years later they're still selling used copies for 30 bucks fuck you
I had 5 games i was gonna swap in and they it would be worth $23 i refused.
