They are going to find me, curled up in a ball next to my laptop, just babbling, "So many games, not enough time. So many numbers."

Just kidding around, I appreciate everyone contributing numbers and the people answering questions. I really like to help out with answering questions but glad people are answering them before I can get to them. Thanks everyone!

Odd question but for the flip 2 games to get $40 off on FFXIII/GOW3 can you trade in the same game twice?

Just wondering because Lego Star Wars is on the list for the PS3 and it's selling for $18 new. Imagine you might be able to find it cheaper other places, but otherwise not worth it. Not sure if this is the lowest priced game on the list but I'm guessing it is.

Just traded these:

New Super Mario Bros. DS $15 ($24 w/bonus and edge)
Left 4 Dead 2 $29.75 ($47.61 w/bonus and edge)
Bayonetta 360 $23 ($36.80 w/bonus and edge)
Tekken 6 PS3 $22.75 ($36.41 w/bonus and edge)

YMMV but gamestop's policy is to not take 2 of the same title/platform in a trade.

Congrats on your $85. I was thinking about trading in borderlands since I am not feeling it too much. Then again, I might be able to make around 35-40 on ebay.

ps3 - ncaa football 2010 base value $16.75 2/22/10

yeah I wasn't too big on borderlands either so I traded it in, came out to be $38 in credit. I also traded in Left 4 Dead 2, Zelda Spirit Tracks, and Kirby Superstar Ultra and came away with $140 in credit. Considering I only paid $70 for all of those I'm rather pleased.

All for 360, base values:
Madden NFL 10-$23.75
UFC 2009 Undisputed-$7.75
Street Fighter IV-$4

I really hope some of them try buying ME2 (multiple copies) and try trading it in for some extra CASH. Lol I'd love to see the person that buys a few copies opens them for trading and then gets the 'we only take one copy and promo's don't apply on cash trades' seeing that would be priceless.

Traded a bunch of old games today (Base TIV):

Lego Batman/Pure 9.21 (5.75)
Lego Star Wars 7.61 (4.75) -PS2
Kingdom Hearts 6.79 (4.25)
Tomb Raider Anniversary 4.80 (3.00)-PS2
Tokyo Xtreme Racer Drift 2 1.21 (1.00)
Resident Evil Zero 4.80 (3.00)
Killer 7 2.40 (1.50) - GC
Tomb Raider Legend 1.99 (1.25) - GC

Overall 38.81 today.

Still have some other stuff to pawn off.

Trade ins after edge and promo:

360
Bioshock 2 : Base: $25/PromoEdge/$40
Dragon Age:Bas: $21.25/PromoEdge/ $33.99

DS:
Kirby SSU:Base: $15/PromoEdge $24
Pokemon Platinum: Base: $15/PromoEdge/ $24


Total: $121.99
Extremely happy with how it went.

My manager told me they are keeping an eye for employees doing this as with discount and edge a used copy would be 45 dollars and some change. If you work there, I urge you do not take advantage of this. For the sake of your job and its just crappy to rip off GS when they are doing a promo like this.

Thanks OP and everyone else posting base values. Between this and that trade in certain game-get another for $20 promo, the most gamestop trade ins I've had in years. BUT... some of those base trade in values......if I had coffee in my mouth, it would have been spit take'd.

Just wondering, do I need to trade in a charger with a GBA SP? Thanks in advance.

Darksiders seems to have gone up to $24 for both platforms, I'm just praying I can finish it before it drops.

Ymmv sometimes they'll take it as incomplete.

man even with this deal gamestop is still worse than ebay

traded in mass effect 2 and madden 09 for 61 dollars credit woop woop

Thanks, I hope mine will. Most of the employees are good, but there's one asshole who always follows every regulation down to the last comma. Such as the apparent, "Add refurb to everything" rule that none of the others follow.

I'll be trading within the next couple days, so I'll give some values then.

Can someone explain what everyone is doing with ME2? Are you buying and then trading in? And if so what is you profit? Just confused on this.
