Double edged sword. I've bought a game for $50.00, and traded it in for a whopping $20. The store then turns around a sell it for $45.00. I get screwed out of the value of the game. The game company loses the sale. At the same time, the store makes a crazy amount of profit, and someone else who may not have bought the game because it was $50.00 may be swayed by the "amazing" $5.00 they are saving.

I know I have a TON of games in my library that wouldn't be there if I had to pay full retail. Still, part of me can't help but think THIS is why new games cost $60 bucks!
