22 for Knack -.- a few months ago I got more for Pokemon Black!

Ya, whats is with these values! I was expecting atleast $40 for a game thats 3 weeks old or at worst 35, but 24! Just looked up the value at best buy, it's $40 there.


Oh god... what've I been doing with my life... I've been trading games in at Gamestop for like 3 years DX lol

They aren't that bad for games that have been out for atleast a few months or more. By then some other prices will have dropped too. GS also usually has trade in bonuses to make it worth more. This is the first time I asked about the value of a brand new game though and was stunned xD

They sent me an email saying my games are worth 40. Killzone being one of them.

Wait really? Weird, they told me $24 when I called about an hour ago. I didn't get any emails from them either. Is it some special promo and doss it say when it goes active?

I know! Lol, a week after Nintendo Land was out (since I acciedentally got two copies), 15 dollars. Maybe that was to be expected though XD



I make videos that are sometimes funny I think?

Uhm, yeah, I don't really like Gamestop's used games policies. They offered me about 100$ for almost 80 PS2 titles and then wanted almost 100$ for a used copy of Valkyria Chronicles, which cost about 60$ brand new in other stores at the time (Platinum release).

This is how the world works as they are brick and mortar. They aren't a rental shop.  If you want more sell it on one of many internet options.

I've moved 9 times in ten years and four times in the last year, I have a lot of games and movies...

The trick to gamestop is buying your games used and then trading them back after a week, you can do this infinitely for free rentals.
