Do you agree with companies trying to rid used game sales?

Just went on ebay.

look at how many COD Mariop Kart 7 - Mario 3D Land - Just dance or Skyrim are on it... and sometimes the selling price is only £3 cheaper than soem online retails (Super Mario 3D Land can ends at £27 and cost £29.95 new at Zavvi.com)

People are not even look anywhere further.

We should stop this. I think that before ebay getting massive games use to sell more.

No we should not. The market regulates itself. It's awesome that way. All we need is transparency. Stupid consumers pay high prices, it's been like that since the beginning of mankind. It's awesome that someone is willing to pay 27 GBP for a used game when he could buy the game new for 30 GBP. Thus the original buyer gets back 27 GBP and can buy another new game with this money.

Ok You made a point on ebay and people getting money back (much more than a retail will give you back) and I am convinved.

 

but I do not agree that a retail does give you £8 for a game taht he will sell at £25. No one but them are gaining from it (an higher margin than selling a new game)

Very good :)

And yes, the low prices paid are annoying, but they are the result of not enough competition. That's why I think the publishers should create their own retail outlets and compete with GameStop.
