Hey Guys,
I'm still relatively new to CAG, but I recently found out about "flipping," which was described to me as basically buying something (game, system, w/e) from one place and then selling/trading it in for more money/credit at another place.
To me, it seems like a good way to make some money/build some trade credit, especially if I see a game for cheap (e.g. on clearance) and am not particularly interested in playing it.
So I was just wondering if any of you have general advice or pointers on how to do this effectively. Where do you guys determine the trade-in value or sale value of those items (besides eBay)? How do you know that something GS sells for $x.xx can be traded in at BlockBuster for $xx.xx?
I know that this thread might get stolen from FW/SD, so please PM me with responses if you don't want to post here.
Thanks!

P.S. I have bought several Target clearance games (all sealed), so if I were to trade them in at other places, what should I do before bringing them in? Remove the red price stickers (which are sometimes insanely hard to take off), etc.?
