QFT.

To JP and any mod: Would it be possible to implement this idea - Any posts about getting a better value on Ebay/Craigslist/Amazon will be deleted from this thread. This thread exists for informational purposes, and having random people harass posters will only be detrimental to the thread. If you really feel the need to inform a CAG that he or she could have gotten a better deal elsewhere (which is useless anyways since the games have already been traded in), work it out through PMs, and NOT this thread.

Normally I think it true, but many times people may not know they have a rare gem.

If it wasn't for this thread I never would of known that the jap coach game was worth 50 bucks.

While I know the PW games are worth some money, it's easy to miss that is a semi rare game.

Feel free to report any posts you feel are an issue with keeping the thread on-topic.

This would probably never work in practice, but in theory it would be a great idea if "rare" titles in the TIV listing were noted as such to give folks a heads up that a particular game might be worth substantially more than what Gamestop is giving. Problem is "rare" is a subjective term and it would probably cause the OP a lot more headache.

Hoping to finish AC: Brotherhood tonight so I can trade it in for 20+ bonus which will bring it to at least 30. Amazon is offering 32 but I'd rather have GS credit to buy something used down the line...

Kinect adventures $1.50 today - Xbox 360 - asked for the quote since it still had a decent trade on the front page. Not anymore.

The reason it's so low is who's going to buy that game used? Only people who buy a Kinect used, and even then by the time you buy both things, you might as well pay the $2 or $3 more to get a new Kinect w/game and a 1-year warranty with Microsoft.

I suggested this before and the problem is that goes into the grey area of saying "other places are better." JD, Shrike, and I agreed that some of the accessories (PS2 network adapter, Wavebirds, etc.) could get the notification of worth more on the grey market.

Picked up a madcatz streetfighter fight stick at Gamestop today for $40 and asked what the current trade value of MvC3.

PS3 - Marvel vs Capcom 3 $22

Does anyone have confirmation that this will be extended? I'm about to do this but want to hold off because I don't want to lose my downloads.

Base value for ps3

AC: Brotherhood - still 20
The Fight - 11 (didnt trade this in) amazon does around ~$20 for it
