Forums - Gaming - Huge Noob Question: How does game trading/selling work?

@morenoingrato

sorry my quote button doesn't work on this computer for some reason. On this PC I can't click on alot of vgchartz even though I have no idea why.

But anyways to your question yeah even with the 30% bonus you should be able to get some good stuff, not sure on exact pricing since I'm not at work curretnly to ring it up but it should be pretty high. At least a game or 2..

And Pikmin 2 is high for the same reason a lot of Nintendo 1st party games are, they just don't get traded in and they are in incredibly high demand. Honestly out of all games Nintendo 1st party hold their value higher than any other games.

And conversly REALLY big shooters like Gears of War and Halo and Call of Duty drop pretty quickly because they move SO MUCH volume that we get a high number traded back in. Though Halo Reach and Black Ops are holding their value.

I wonder why VGchartz does not have a thread allowing gamers to trade, sell or buy games from other members. I saw this on NeoGaf and it seems like a good idea.


that's a very good Idea



lastest eb games gamestop rip off crime, Portal 2 as soon as its released, trade value was 20 dollars AUD, from the RRP of 110 AUD.

The thing is that you cant compete with the online traders. but its good to ask and if they offer Nothing or little then screw them and keep them for another time. dont trade anything you cant get half what you payed out of them.



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Pikmin 2 is expensive? I got it for $5.....I never considered trading it in but you've got my attention.

It was pretty accurate when I used it last year to trade in games during the 50% extra promotion. For some older games it might be accurate.
