    Just wondering what the lowest trade in price anyone was offered when trading in a game.

    I got €1.00 for Rocky the other day , im half tempted to bring up some old commodore 64 games to see if i can get any lower !

    Its not worth even trading a game for that price. Especially since they will then go and charge at least 15-20 quid for it.

    True , i was cleaning out the attic and only kept games i really wanted , better than binning them though

    I remember being quoted €3 for SSX snowboarding
    I laughed

    Trade-in's only worth it if they have the '4 old games in exchange for 1 new game worth €60' deal

    Cost to advertise on Ebay and the time it takes id rather shot of it. The 4 for 1 Trade ins usually stipulated games they will accept in the trade. They wont give you Army of Two for 4 copies of old games or games they wont be able to re-sell

    Once got offered €1 for the special edition of Primal in Game because they didn't have the special edition on their system.
    note: this was about a week after the game came out, it was in the top ten and was going for about €40 second hand (I checked first)

    Gamestop offered me 20c for Fantavision (PS2) a few years back. I think they might have still been called Gamesworld at that stage. The guy in the shop was so embarrassed to say it!

    50 cents took it too when trading in ps2 games to get a cheaper 360.
