My local FYE is an isolated one (next closest is 2 1/2 hours away) and it just opened. I'm wondering if they got nailed by a bunch of CC trade-ins because I just called and asked about the trade-in value of Maximum Chase, WWE Raw 2, and UFC Tapout 2 and the guy said they weren't taking any of those. I'm thinking he might not have known how to even look up the prices because I said "Maximum Chase" and I heard him type for like a minute straight, then he said "Hold on a sec..."....then came back and said "We're not taking any of those." I'll check again tomorrow. I do have a few to add though.
Pro Race Driver Xbox (can't believe no one posted this one yet) $27
WWE Raw 2 Xbox $11
XGRA Xbox $7.50
I did call the next closest FYE and they said Maximum Chase Xbox was $18.
Strider Turbulence

Ah, so Pro Race Driver is $27.
Time to pick up a couple of those and head to FYE. Just a little more credit until I have enough for the HDD.

You must be confused, none of the prices here are for Gamestop. Midnight Club was $7-8 at FYE. It was $3 at Gamestop back in Feb if that helps though.

Interesting..every racing game at FyE has a good trade in value
Yeah I remember trading Pro Race Driver(XBox) for $27 but I thought it was on a list. Now I see it was Lotus Challenge
Gamestop has it for $15......Tsssssssss...don't tell anyone :wink:
Strider Turbulence
07-27-2004, 09:16 PM
Ebgames has it for $13. Trading in 2 copies to 2 different FYE stores in 2 days should knock the price of the HDD down by half + I'll have the $30 MIR to look forward too.
The PS2 Pro Racer was only like $7.50 for some reason.

Thx Strider Turbulence for the EB price. I only have one Fye, I had no problem trading mult copies so far.
What $30 MIR are you talking about? I must have missed it .
Gamestop has 30% + if u trade 3 games , so $15 will be cheaper in my case.
BTW. Just ordered Ikaruga for 19.99 from Fye . Girl said will be here next week
Strider Turbulence
07-28-2004, 01:30 AM
That $30 MIR I was talking about is for the ps2 Hard Drive Device. I got a Strawberries ad in the Sunday paper and they had it listed with the $30 MIR.
Spiderman 2 on the consoles has a $20 MIR and ESPN2k5, P.N.03, and several others had $5 MIR but that's not worth it IMO.

Spider-Man 2 for XBox, GC, and PS2 has a $20 rebate? I might have to get in on this. I need to get rid of some store credit since they didn't get Tales of Symphonia or Pandora Tomorrow for the Cube.
Strider Turbulence

Yup, Bestbuy.com has Pro Racer Driver for $10 but it's only the ps2 version (no XBOX but the PC one is there).

Strider Turbulence
07-29-2004, 12:41 AM
PS2 Pro Race Driver is only like $7.50. I have no idea why the XBOX version fetches more, I always see plenty of copies of the game around used gamestores.

07-30-2004, 01:25 AM
Anyone know how much Bombastic fetches? I don't really want to trade my copy in, but I wouldn't mind knowing.

Bombastic falls in the $7.50-8.50 range. I remember seeing a used copy for $14.99.

God dammit! They dropped Pro Race Driver's price.
Heh, looks like the party really is over for awhile.
Strider Turbulence
07-31-2004, 02:42 AM
Skies of Arcadia Legends, RPG MAker II, Fatal Frame I, Go Go Hypergrind all down to $8.
On the bright side, you can start picking up great games for $15 and under now apparently if this applies to FYE stores. I'm still not sure if a used game with a dated price tag will ring up at it's updated price though.
Anyone know for sure?
SoulEdgeVII
07-31-2004, 02:54 AM
How does this affect FYE trade in prices? Does FYE base their prices off of wherehouse.com? I treded in a copy of Go Go Hypergrind and I still got $26.

Well, they sell Ghost Recon: Jungle Storm for $50 so probably $22-26.
As for the second question, we've pretty much been doing that the whole time.
Black and Bruised *gamecube only*
Motor Trend Lotus Challege (XBOX)
Pro Race Driver (XBOX)
Go Go Hypergrind
All three of these went for $26 or 27 last week and be found at Gamestop or EB for $10-15 before discounts. Just be sure to remember that most FYE stores only take around 3 copies of each game so abuse it at your own risk.

I ended up going to EB and getting the $10 per game promotion...

no, it wasn't me, it was a friend of mine. and he didn't trade it in when they told him they would only give him a quarter. he went to eb and traded it in for $7. i traded mine in for $15 earlier this year. the master quest isn't anything that interesting, and i already own the original game and the other bonus zelda disc, which is much better.

Ok but even $7 is still low but oh well. I'm sure a number of people on here (myself included) would have paid between $10-$15.
Here's what I got for values yesterday.
NASCAR Thunder 2003 (PS2)-$11
NASCAR Thunder 2004 (XBOX)-$2
Amped(XBOX)-$7.50
Dead to Rights (GCN)-$8.50
State of Emergency (Xbox)-$8.50
And no that's not a typo, 2003 for PS2 sells for more than 2004 for for XBOX. For that price I told them I'd keep it. I used my $33 (they took $2.50 off Dead to Rights cause the box was in bad shape, they are anal about the shape of the used game!) store credit to get a new copy of Marvel vs. Capcom 2 for XBox, I was quite pleased with myself.

he's a good guy and all, but he has a lot of young children in his house and his games, cds, dvds, usually don't stay in perfect condition for long. so, i don't know how many people would have wanted it...but of course eb would take it, they'll take anything. just to give you an idea about this friend, yesterday i asked him about his mario kart pin for the metroid 2 demo, and he said he lost the case for the game with the instructions...meaning he only has the disc sitting around loose. and he wonders why i don't let him borrow my stuff.

They probably only offered 2.00 on 2004 because they already had a lot of copies. I tried to trade in a copy of haunted mansion, and they offered me $0.01. They had 5 used copies of it already, hence the $0.01.

Strider Turbulence
08-07-2004, 03:13 PM
As far as I know all copies of the Star Wars/Tetris Worlds have that 'Not for resale' tag on it. You'll probably run into some trouble when trading it in so be sure to ask if they could scan it to see if it appears in their system (and it will). The problem is...some SW/TW don't have a UPC.
Pancake Rabbit

where do you trade stuff in at FYE do they have a seperate counter now or something. or do you just take your stuff to the check out? (i dont go to FYE im more of a best buy guy)
Strider Turbulence
08-07-2004, 04:13 PM
I think it depends on the size of the store. I go to three different FYE stores and two (regular size stores) of them take trade ins at the register. The third one is a large store that has like 7 floors and they do all their trade ins on the 5th floor.

Strider Turbulence
08-07-2004, 04:33 PM
Well actually it's five floors for customers, each with a different theme (rap, rock, videogames, dvds, country music, etc). Floors six and seven is where they stock their excess inventory, and they have lots of it.

go to www.thewherehouse.com
where it says "we want your used cds, dvds, and games!" enter the one you want to trade in and check its value. Again, this may only apply to thewherehouse(it is an affiliate of fye, strawberries, coconuts) and again, the trade in prices seem to very on location(your FYE might give $15 for robin hood xbx, mine might only give $9) so YMMV
Devin
08-09-2004, 07:07 PM
All we need now is a list with ALL these games and their prices on ONE page. No one wants to search through 16 pages to find how much they would get for certain games. Whomever started this thread, can you make a list of all the games and prices (preferably on the first page)? It would help a lot!
Strider Turbulence
08-09-2004, 08:20 PM
Look at my very first post on the first page, that's where I compiled a list of the of all the prices we got.
And these are $10 now at Best Buy, might be worth seeing if some of these command a $20 something value at FYE.

Strider Turbulence
08-09-2004, 08:33 PM
EB and Gamestop will take them since they probably just look them up in the computer and when they resell them, they have their own UPC on the box anyway.
They can do the same thing at FYE I suppose but the 'Not for Resale' tag can hurt your chances depending on the employee doing the transaction.

I traded Pro Race Driver (XBOX) in today for $27 credit. I bought the game 10 minutes earlier at TRU for $10. I wonder if they'll take doubles ...
The guy at the counter, I sort of know because of how many times I've done trade-ins at FYE, replied "And you bought the game for $20?" after he told me the trade-in credit was $27. BTW, the plastic wrap was still on, and the TRU sticker said $19.99. Anyways, I just grinned and said "Actually, $10."

That Black and Bruised you tried to trade was on ps2 or Gamecube? 'cuz $6 sounds like something they'd charge for the ps2 version.
And I have to second what masha said, never tell them how much you paid for some of these games. If they have to know why you are always trading in so many of the same game, just say some crap like you buy games in lots from ebay or flea markets and this includes getting games you don't want or already have.

Add these to the list as well:
Skygunner (PS2) - $8.50
Bombastic (PS2) - $7.50 [$4.96 at Circuit City]
NCAA Final Four 2001 (PS2) - $1.00
Also, if FYE refuses to take a game (for whatever reason) just go to Saturday Night Matinee and get the exact same amount of store credit that you would get at FYE. Or go to Coconuts and get the exact same amount of credit in CASH!
FYE, Saturday Night Matinee, and Coconuts are all affiliated with each other. Lucky for me FYE and Saturday Night Matinee are near each other in the mall, and Coconuts is across the street from the mall. :wink:
As long as we don't tell the people who work at FYE, then we can be making money like this for a long time!

I just called the FYE here and they said it's still $27 for PRD, and I could swear I saw plenty of them at the local TRU so I'm going to head back there.
Anyone have problems either trading in multiple copies or unopened copies? Should I open the games before I trade them in? Should I trade them in one at a time? (or maybe they will have Motor Trend Lotus challenge or whatever too and I can just get that).
\/\/\/\/\/
EDIT: never mind, I found that my TRU has been picked clean, and the Lotus Challenge game was still $25 even with the sale (50% off $49.99).
Johnny Postman
08-29-2004, 02:48 PM
They're not supposed to take multiple copies of a game but some clerks are pretty clueless so it's YMMV.
Also, open the games beforehand. Doesn't matter if they take them or not (although a lot of places figure you shoplifted them if new and refuse) but if you take a minute to open them it helps out fellow CAGers. If FYE's start getting a ton of sealed games as trade-ins, eventually they'll catch on and start closing the loopholes.

I can confirm on Saturday, Aug 28th these are still valid:
Pro Race Driver (XBOX): $27
ESPN NHL 2004 (XBOX): $17
I also tried to trade in a Sega Soccer Slam for GC I bought at the TRU sale and had to deal with the biggest piece-of-shit manager I've met in retail. I still had the wrapping on it in case the value had dropped and I needed to return it to TRU. I failed to notice an extra bar code sticker on the shrinkwrap over the normal UPC barcode. When the bar code couldn't be found in their system, the employee called over Mr. Fuckface. The game didn't come up in their system and the manager told me I couldn't trade it in since it couldn't be found. Realizing the problem, I offered to take off the other sticker to try to scan the one underneath, he told me some shit that I had "bought the game under some other promotion, and so it wouldn't scan in the system and couldn't be traded." I asked why the fuck it mattered what "promotion" I had bought it under and again tried to explain why it would help if I removed the extra barcode and got the same lame response, slightly more irritated. My friend and I looked at each other in disbelief at this guy's smugness and stupidity. I looked him square in the eye and asked if I walked out of the store, took off the barcode, and walked back in and we started over if they could try to scan it. He replied "Wow! That won't do anything, you can't trade it in." If the motherfucker had been standing closer to me, I would have popped him in the fucking mouth at this point I was so pissed off by his teenager response (this guy was in his 40's with greying hair). Instead I just said "What an asshole" and traded in the other two games with the other employee. What a shitty experience.
Moral of the story? Make sure you remove anything extra on the package so you don't have to deal with fucktards like I did.

Be careful that you DON'T remove the barcode that's stuck over the UPC on Pro Race Driver for XBOX. All the copies I've had had this barcode over it (on top of the case itself). I think they printed the wrong barcode or something and had to stick the right one on it. If you take the stuck on one off, FYE will never find it in their system.

I never noticed an extra barcode on it. Most of the PRD I've got were preowned with EB stickers and I always used to just peel them off. Oh well, I've found a store just down the street from FYE with a few copies of PRD for $9. Street Fighter Anniversary Collection is mine on Friday. \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

i was gonna order some stuff from them and thought that i might as well include black & bruised..thanks..
edit: ok well they dont have black & bruised for gc only ps2...jumped the gun there..lol..

Black and Bruised for GC, 1 store quoted me $6 for it! Foohey. The guy had to ask the manager, she came over and pointed out something on the computer, then he said we'll give you $6. Went to another FYE and they gave $27 trade-in. Version was brand new w/o wrapper.
Me thinks manager at 1st store didn't want to give the $27 and quoted a lower price for XBox or PS2? version... 2nd store was regular cashier, not manager, he was surprised it was for $27, but did the deal w/o problem.

Just curious, how long does FYE take to get new titles and put them on the shelves? I have been stocking up a few hundered bucks in store credit in anticipation of the crazy upcoming fall release schedule. Am I going to have to wait a long time after games come out for them to appear in the FYE stores?
mtxbass1
09-07-2004, 11:32 AM
It depends on your FYE. One of mine is really good about getting some new titles. The other FYE hasn't had a new title since Madden 2005.

Just got back from my FYE and picked up NHL 2K5 with a $5.00 mail in rebate. They did this same rebate for NFL 2K5 this year.
Strider Turbulence
09-09-2004, 10:26 PM
Way of the Samurai 2--$17
Just as a note though Gamestop will give you $18 and EB will give you $20.
I'm still looking for another 'magic' title to buy low and sell for $20 something. I wondered if Courtside on Gamecube is one of them but I never bought it yet to try it out.

Also NHL Hitz 2003 XB for $1. I didn't sell it.

Add in the following:
Red Dead Revolver (PS/2) - $25
Red Dead Revolver (XBox) - $25
And as a side note:
Red Dead Revolver, both PS/2 and XBox, have trade-in values of $25 at FYE, since they're selling it at $49.99 still in-store at FYE.
You can pick up either version at BB for $15 after GGC, go ther and trade it in and get an additional $10 worth of trade-in value. (Note: It's in the flier up to the 11th, though not sure if it's a permanent drop or not.)
I checked with them last night on it, so until they decide to drop the price of RDR, it should work.
YoshiFan1
09-11-2004, 01:18 AM
I think Go Go Hypergrind is done with having a high trade in value. The used copy I saw for sale said old price $43.99, new price (still for the used copy), $14.99. I guess they got smart and realized no one was going to pay $44 used for a game that can be bought for under $13 new.

When you guys are saying the trade in value is $25,is that cash or just straight up what they offer you in trade in for it? I remember a while back i traded in Disaster Report and got like $13 cash for it. So how much cash do you get on a game worth $25 in trade in? Do they take off like 10% or something like that? Thx in advance

I finally traded in some stuff at FYE. Got $69.50 for 5 games that cost me $28 total. The manager couldn't believe it when Soccer Slam rang up as $24.
I don't think it's on the list yet but ESPN NBA 2Night 2002 for Xbox gets $2. Not that much but I only paid $3 for it to begin with so I didn't mind taking a $1 loss considering I would be lucky to get more than $0.25 at EB or $1 on EBay.
Also, when you get the credit, did everyone else get a slip of paper that was the same material as a receipt with a printed list of all games traded in with the total merchandise credit at the bottom? I wasn't sure what I was going to get since I have never traded in games into a store before but is this normal?

I'm glad I didn't go out and buy Go Go Hypergrind since I had thought about it. I guess that explains why it now sells for $14.99 used.
Last week I noticed the $43.99 on a used copy someone else traded in (this was before I ever traded in games) was crossed out and had a $14.99 price, I posted about it last week but I wasn't sure if the trade in value dropped since I didn't try to trade it in.

I traded in the Tetris/SW combo for $26 on Sat. Disney's Party for GBA was $12. Spyro for GC was $7.50.
As for the Pro Race Driver (XB). I had mentioned earlier about the stickered UPC they have put over some versions. It's possible that some print runs were printed with the wrong UPC so that could be why they rang up at $5 or so. Unfortunately, I don't have any more copies of PRD so I can't get the UPC but if anyone does ...
On the other hand, if your copy had the wrong UPC printed on it and the alternate stickered UPC has been removed already, you're pretty much SOL.

This may be a YMMV thing. After all, Smell claimed that Pro Race Driver (Xbox) was only $5.00 trade-in credit, and at our local FYEs its still $27.00 trade-in credit. As far as I'm concerned, Go-Go Hypergrind will still get you $26.00 in store credit, but I'm going to FYE on Friday, so I'll let you know by then...

That sounded like a UPC issue though. Like I mentioned, Go Go Hypergrind was marked down to $14.99 used from $43.99 used which would make sense if the trade in value did indeed drop. I hope you are right though and the trade in value still is $26.

This kinda reminds me of a different game at FYE. Klonoa: Empire of Dreams (GBA) will get you $20.50 in store credit at FYE, but FYE sells the game NEW for only $14.99!
I hope you are right though and the trade in value still is $26.
You and me both!

If they marked them down an didn't change trade in values you can buy it at FYE and trade them to FYE at the same time. You don't need a Gamestop :D

I actually tried to do that yesterday but PRD was marked and rung up at $44.99. The funny part was one of the employees jokingly told me XBOX PRD is for people to trade in, not buy! :)

I tried once at each store a couple of months ago but they wouldn't take it. If your in the area it's still a worth a shot. Tell them to look it up in their system because you seen someone trade it in before.
Strawberries near Downton Crossing gives cash and are usually more picky and strict about trade ins than Record Town.

Haunted Mansion for Xbox got me $15, I was expecting $17 but was still happy to get the $15. I looked and saw all of my games I traded in on Saturday on the shelf. It was funny to see Blitz Pro for $34 used, no one will ever pay that. Soccer Slam was marked $29.99, kind of surprisng since they are only selling it for $6 more than what they paid me.

At one FYE, I saw cart only GBA games. At another, I saw just complete games so either the store that only had complete games just happened to have the games traded in that way or it depends on the store.

Well the manager just served me. It looked like he really took his job seriously. He separated the games into an acceptable pile and a you got served pile. I sure was pissed when I saw the right one (You got served) fill up with games. Basically, I walked out of the mall with a reserve of GTA SA, 60$ in FYE Credit, and 40$ worth of EBGames store credit, and 2 games left over after 56$ spent on Preplayed EBGames. I'm not too happy, but I made a quick 30$, so I can't complain. Seriously though, am I the only one that this has happened too? I mean, the guy had his super reading glasses on just to check if there was one little fingerprint on the friggin CD. Sheeshe... picky bastard.

Yes.. at the FYE I went to a few weeks ago.. the guy made me wait 30 minutes and he was pretty picky too! They rejected my KOTOR because of a light scratch that was there because the disc came loose.
If I had gotten my GF to do it, she would have probably been able to trade in all my games with no trouble within 5 minutes...

According to secretvampire as of September 3rd, ESPN NHL 2K4 (PS2) will get you $17.00 in store credit. The value may have gone down by now, but I doubt it. Call your local FYE, just in case.

Strangely enough, I'll be trading in another one of these today, so I can give you a confirmation later in the afternoon. Along with Go-Go Hypergrind, Pro Race Driver, etc.

I tried trading in PRD to a different FYE store I usually go to but when the guy looked up the price it was $5! I guess the prices can vary wildly from store to store.
BTW: Didja know Motor Trend Lotus Challenge is $3 NEW at EB? :) :) :)

Did your game have the extra barcode sticker on the back of it over the normal barcode? I'm 99% sure that has something to do with it, otherwise all stores use the same computer system.
BTW: Didja know Motor Trend Lotus Challenge is $3 NEW at EB?
Seriously???? I've never seen one that cheap at EB.

so what are the best tradein values for cheapass games going right now...hypergrind and pro race driver?
Strider Turbulence
09-30-2004, 11:29 AM
Black and Bruised on Gamecube might still have it's $27 value and that game is $10 at Eb and $13 at Gamestop.
Star Wars/Tetris World, which is cheap everywhere, still has it's $26 value but the not for resale sticker makes it hard to trade in at certain stores.
And then there is Motor Trend Lotus Challenge, which is $3 new and $9 used at EB. Trades in for $27 at FYE.
