I figured we should have a thread for this as there seems to be some prices scattered around this site.

Here's what I got for some Xbox games on 6/20:

Mechassualt - $8
Blood Wake - $7
Time Splitters - $8
GTA 3/4 - $25
Indiana Jones- $3
Freedom Fighters- $8
Armed and Dang - $12
Riddick- $35
 
Well, I swap the cases back to the crappy blockbuster ones, but I also give them the cover art and manuals. They just get rid of the cases anyway. I don't know why people have to be so greedy.
 
[quote name='drfrielgood']Anyone know if Drake still goes for $21?[/quote]

Yup. Found two copies at a Gamestop for $6 each and tried them at two different Game Rushes last night, and both rang up $21 in trade.

Robin Hood-Defender of the Crown is also getting $21 in trade still as well.

Life is good sometimes.
 
Anyone know these yet: ALL XBOX

Splashdown
Star Wars Clone Wars
Beyond Good & Evil (just finished...so I want to trade)
SWAT
Deat To Rights PH
Ghost Recon


Also, DRAKE is $6.99 at Gamestop.com....combine that with FREE SHIPPING....not a bad deal. Only if you want to trade it that it. My luck, I would get it, then it would be worth like $2 there.

I don't know these for sure but I'm guessing you'd get between $2 to $8 for each of those since all of them seem to be selling for $20 new and around $16.99 or less used...
 
I got 7 dollars for the PS2 version of Indiana Jone's and the Emperor's Tomb, that is pretty awesome, seeing as I only paid 5 for it originally.
 
I don't know if this as been posted, but they raised the price of the XSN Sports titles back to $7.
A few months ago they wanted to give me like $1 for NBA Inside Dr. and $1.50 for NHL Rivals.
 
Anyone know about

SWAT (XBOX) ....

I finally got around to playing it and it was kinda easy and got a bit boring after about 3 or 4 levels. Glad it was cheap.

Still have my coupon trade 2 get $20+credit off. Now to decide on a XBOX game
 
I traded in SWAT about a month ago for $7. Also Wild Arms 3 was $12 for me also. I've traded in a couple of those and I always seem to get different prices. First time it was $21, then it jumped up to $25, then back down to $21, and now at $12. I've only seen a trade-in price go up twice, once with Wild Arms and the other one was Halo (went from 20 to 16, and now it's back at 20)
 
Orphen 2$
Sub Rebellion 7$
Haven 2$
Rocket Power Beach Bandits 7$ (GC)

Plus I used 1 coupon and preordered 2 games at the same time, the chick did it for me with no problems and no hassles.
 
Anyone know what these would fetch:

Resident Evil GC
Resident Evil: Dead Aim PS2
Fairly OddParents XB - is this still high?
Wrestlemania XIX GC
Metal Arms GITS XB

thanks

Also:
Mojo PS2 - $2
Rainbow 6: BA XB - $20
Final Fight: One GBA - $5
 
I bought 2 copies of Drake at Gamestop for $6 a piece, I traded them in at Gamerush for Splinter Cell PT, and got $42 credit. Plus, I will beat Splinter Cell this weekend, and trade it in for $25 credit. Gamerush is the best!!!

I was thinking of doing the recent trade in 2 games, get any preowned game for $30+trade in credit, would they accept two copies of the same game in the same transaction for this promotion?

This was TODAY 9/03/04, my fellow CAG. Go take advantage of this while you still can. I will probably buy some more Drakes this week.
 
thanks for the response. according to gamestop's website the only stores that have used drake's are on the other side of town but there's two local ones that have new copies for only a dollar more(according to the website), I'll probably just get those and save myself time and gas money.
 
Get a load of this.

Dr. Muto (GCN) - $21.00

Just traded it in to get Pikmin 2. Couldn't believe it as this game new was 19.99 when it came out two years ago. Must be a mistake. In any case, it was at a Glendale, CA store. If you have the game, I suggest sprinting to Blockbuster...now.
 
How much trade-in credit do they give ya' for Onimusha Tactics (GBA) and Virtua Tennis (GBA)? Or some of the other TRU GBA games? Thanks.
 
I would be interested in knowing what Lapucelle tatics and Disaega are fetching............
 
I just got Riddick for $9.99. I'm pretty sure I'll beat it in a couple of days. Then I'll take it to Gamerush and trade it in. If anybody wants to know which Gamerush it is, PM me, so you can go get it for $9.99 when I trade it.

I'll probably trade it in one of the Culver Cuty, CA stores.
 
[quote name='Green-Bull']How much trade-in credit do they give ya' for Onimusha Tactics (GBA) and Virtua Tennis (GBA)? Or some of the other TRU GBA games? Thanks.[/quote]

[quote name='jshorr']ne1 know what they are paying for riddick these days?[/quote]
I think I saw a used copy selling for $34.99 so I'm guessing they'll buy it back for $21...

Are these prices all nationwide? I thought I saw it as 39.99 a few days ago.

youll get 1.50 for dead to rights thats what i got yesterday plus the 5.00 bonus so 6.50 total which is profit from the 5.00 cc price
 
Thanks for the Dead To Rights value...I may just keep it since I still have not beat it....kinda lost interest though

I also just ordered DRAKE from Gamestop for $6.99 to use as trade in fodder since it is fetching $21. Hopefully I can still get that much for it when I try.
 
How much does Corvette (PS2) get you? I saw that at GameStop for maybe $14.99. I read in this topic that the XBOX version had good trade value, I thought.

At GameStop I was looking for Drake but didn't find any. Anyone know how much EB (the actual store) sells Drake for? Thanks for any info.

I asked the guy at GameRush about these though.

Doom 2 (GBA) = $9.00
All-Star Baseball 2003 (GC) = $2.00
Knockout Kings 2003 (GC) = $2.00
Zelda Wind Waker (GC) = $18.00
 
Just FYI I saw drake at frys for 12.99 each, and I they fetch 22$ at GR. Add 5$ each for the 3 for 5$ trade deal or 10$ each for the preorder deal and your looking at least 13$ profit for each. Ya gamestop sells drake for 7$ new but most of the ones around here are tapped out of drake.
 
(Xbox) NCAA 2005 has dropped from $35 to $30 as a trade-in.

The month-newer Maddens are still at their original values, though.
 
so far I've traded 15 Drakes at various stores and got about $330 in credit. I spent about $110 at Gamestop.com for the Drakes. You guys do the math. And the best part is, this is totally legal. Last night a Gamerush employee told me "You can bring in as many Drakes as you want. We sell them for $34.99. If that's what the company wants to pay, then who am I to say anything"

I'm gonna buy some more Drakes and and pre-order every damn game they have.
 
Sorry I thought I read that dr muto was 21, guess I was wrong but most of the GR around here are nice enough to tell me at least a couple of buy back prices over the phone unlike other companies.
 
my game rush guy says he is expecting a dramatic readjustment on the drake trade-in price because they have taken so many in the last week
 
Yeah, there are a bunch of Drakes at my GRs and it seems like a bunch of people on this site are using a lot of Drakes at their GRs. I bet whenever they do their next price system update Drake will drop to $1 to $2 in trade-in credit.
 
I work at a Gamerush and checked out the repricing for previously played games for next week. Drake's price will not be changing from $34.99, at least for next week. Hopefully the trade value will not decrease.
 
[quote name='andrew333']my game rush guy says he is expecting a dramatic readjustment on the drake trade-in price because they have taken so many in the last week[/quote]

Your Gamerush guy is probably jealous that he didn't think of trading in Drakes himself.
 
I've been expecting a dramatic readjustment on the trade-in prices for Drake for the last two months, and it never changed from $21. Well, until this past week when it was raised to $22. I noticed that Gamecrazy sells Drake for $35 used as well. I wonder what they give in store credit for this game? You know, cause I don't want to be stuck with 5 copies of this wretched game if the trade value drops at Gamerush tomorrow.
 
I talked with a 2 store managers the past few week and they both said that they were planing on calling in to the nation headquarters regarding drake trade-in values among a few other games. I wouldnt be suprised at all if there was a price drop this week.

Did you recommend that they call, or were they gonna do it anyway? WHy would the store managers care? That is the price that Blockbuster Corporate set, so let THEM decide when they want to change it. Nobody loses in this. Why is everyone hating on this so much?
