Couple of trade-in questions (PS3 60gb console)

Anyone trade in a PS3 console to Gamestop recently?

I have a PS3 60gb (has backwards compatibility) that I don't use anymore. I've never traded in a console, only games. All I have is the console, really. I have a controller but it is so messed up and broken from playing UFC Undisputed that I probably wouldn't even attempt to sell it. I don't have the box or anything anymore.

If i took the console to Gamestop, would having none of the cables or anything significantly decrease its value? Anyone know how much I'd get for it?

If no one knows, it's alright. I can just call I suppose but I'd rather know before i take it up there and try to sell it.

I also have a game that is pretty badly scratched that I don't want anymore. It was unplayable when it got scratched but I was able to buff out the scratch quite a bit and now it plays just fine. I'm wondering if they would take it or not.

sell it on your own, gamestop is not worth it.
im confused though as to why you'd get rid of a ps3 when you want to play GoW 3
 
Well I got a slim which I like more than the fat PS3. I don't own any PS2 games other than MGS3. Never really held onto any old games so the backwards compatibility is kinda meaningless to me even tho I know a lot of other people hold it dearly thus I thought I could get some decent value out of a backwards compatible PS3.
 
You said you had none of the cables? If so I don't think they will take it, they require all the cables that came in the box and a controller. If you have all that, they'll test it out to make sure it works and take it. Also according to the CAG trade in tracker it's like $120 or so.

Thanks guys! I'll have to see what I can find. I'm sure they may be somewhere. I just graduated from college so I've been moving around quite a bit...
