    Was behind a guy in gamestop yesterday who had 5 PS3 games to trade, only saw two of them, Skate and Kane & Lynch, and he was offered €26 for all five. Reason: Cos there was a sale on!!??

    PS2 game you're lookin at a couple of euro each. That's it. As regards the console i doubt you'll get much if that's all they're giving for games.

    To be honest, its not really worth your hassle trading them in. You'd make as much money doin a few hours overtime one evening.

    Exactly. And I can guarantee that each of them games would have been on the shelves for a minimum of €30 each!!!

    When I got the ps3 on launch day i traded in a ps2 and around 10 or twelve ganes. The total came to around €130 but when I asked for cash value they would only give me €88. The €130 was a voucher for the shop. I was mightely peeved off about that. Can they even do that?

    I think that gamestop are the worst for trading in games.Thast said, ive been in queues in shops before where people ahead of me wanted to trade in games where ive been tempted to offer the person more than what the shop were offering.Ive never actually done it though:)
