    Xtra-Vision. Gamestop are usually the worst, although they occasionally have good trade-in promotions.

    I've had one and a half dealings with XtraVision.

    I got €20 for Pro Evo... €20. I traded it in the following week after it was released. I was quite shocked to be honest.

    I tried to trade in Medal Of Honour and they said the system wouldn't allow me to trade it in. :confused:

    Sounds bad, but it depends on how much you paid for it to be honest!

    I think that's standard to be honest. With games going at that price, I doubt you'll do much better elsewhere. Once they add their markup, it'll prolly cost €35 second hand.

    Try swapping your games on the thread here, you'll probably get a better value deal.

    GAmestop will give you an extra 25% percent on the trade in value if it is against a Future release.

    Thats kind of strange my local xtravision had pre owned Medal of Honor on Xbox the other week... Maybe it's because the online code has been used ?

    Shouldn't make a difference. You can pay €9.99 for an online pass. Besides they never asked if it had been used. Straight up said that their system wouldn't take it.

    Will most likely trade it in against COD in Gamestop or something.

    Did you buy it online or in a shop here, I know they'll only accept certain "regions".

    GameStop will give you 35 euro for it!

    Gamestop are robbing FOOKS.....TBH all shops give very little for 2nd hand games. But new releases Gamestop 99% of the time add at least a €5 to the game. Where I work they are less then 3 minute walk apart from each other and everytime a new game comes out they are always more exspensive....WTF:eek:

    I only get it in Gamestop as a very last resort.....
