[quote name='handisnacks']They are currently giving you $11.75 trade-in value for White Knight Chronicles, and selling it for $44.99 in the store. No, that's not a good deal for consumers. I'd suggest anyone wanting to sell anything do it on Craigslist, then use all the percentage off deals for buying it at GameStop (currently they're offering 25% off + 10% EDGE).
We also have stores here in Northern CA that offer better trade-in values than GameStop, if you must sell to a store and not craigslist/ebay.[/QUOTE]
Except that on Craigslist you get the displeasure of dealing 90-95% of the time with lowballing assholes who expect you to bend over backwards for them and cater to their every whim.
I had the one toolbag wanting me to drive 40 miles(ONE WAY)just so I could probably get there and he no shows or tries to lowball me even worse.
Mind you I've had some good deals with reasonable people off of CL, but for every ONE good deal you get 9 jackoffs expecting you to give them stuff for below flea market prices.
That's why I prefer to go to Gamestop 90% of the time to trade games in, since it's less hassle than dealing with people on the internet. Even on CAG I've had the hassle of people thinking my asking price for a game or whatever is a 'starting price'. If it says X amount shipped, that IS the price I want. You can get it at X or Y place for cheaper? Great. Go get it there.
And OP, why not just take the PS3 to another GS store or ask for a manager at that store the girl told you you 'needed' an Edge card to get the deal?
God knows there's enough GS stores around that you shouldn't have any problems finding one that'll take the system without a hassle or them lying out their ass.
