Selling NTSC games....

    Does anyone know if a games shop would buy an NTSC game off me?

    Basically somebody bought it for me in the states and would like to know before trawling around all the different shops, or if I'd be better off sticking it up on adverts.ie.

    Cheers

    Xtravision usually take them as the staff are generally clueless bout games, and they dont scan the Barcode like gamestop would, ive traded a good few in the smaller xtravisions.....

    Smyths have taken some off me mainly haze on ps3 which i got 38 euro for :eek: after buying on VG+ for 42.

    Xtravision and game wouldnt take it i refuse to shop in gamestop so i dont know but i dont think they do take them.

    Ebay is allways an option too.

    I traded NTSC games in Xtravision in the Blanchardstown SC. they took it off me but, It was region free. They wouldnt know the difference.

    GameStop and GAME both check. It's not that hard for them to know. It says NTSC on the back. As was said, try Smyths/XtraVision or sell on Adverts.
