I was talking with an employee at Gamestop today and thought it was funny.
The person said that the stores are going to through great lengths to get their hands on old consoles dirt cheap such as PS 2 and Xbox, so they can sell them overseas to countries that can't afford the new stuff.
The person said after the current gen stops selling here they sell bulk inventory to poorer countries so they can sell them to people. Basically they will start paying us even less for current generation but will make more money selling to foreign companies.
I stopped shopping at Gamestop after they tried to bend me over for my Gamecube collection when they offered me $165 for 30 games and a console with accessories.
I sold them the console but sold the game in lots for alot more money online.
This person is a friend but I think they are full of crap but that explains why most of the good games never really start selling for $2.00.
Personally I would only do the deal on a 360 for an original xbox but other than that do not sell them your console. There are many other things the original xbox can be used for and xbox scene has some good ideas.
