Some Reasons Why You Should Never Trade-in Your Old Xbox 360 Or PS3 Games at a Local Game Store
You head on over to your local game store where they accept old games for a trade-in value (or credit), to buy new games in the same store; only to be disappointed when you hear that the trade-in value, given to you for your old game, will not even cover a quarter of the price of the new game. You also discover that you just about have to trade-in all your old games to get any decent credit for purchasing that new game!
You see, why trade-in your old Xbox 360 or PS3 games anyway? When I outplayed my Xbox 360 game titled “Frontlines – Fuel Of War”, I headed down to my local game store to trade it in for another game I wanted; Grand Theft Auto IV. I was shocked to be told that my old game would only give me a $10 credit towards purchasing the game I really wanted. It didn’t take me long to realise that the game stores need to make a profit with the old games that are traded in. The older the game, or if it’s a less popular game (or even if the store already has large numbers of the same game for sale), can affect the trade-in value given to you.
Instead of trading in your old games at any of your local game stores, you should sell all your old games on-line instead. Here are some reasons why:
1. Making more money for your old games – The amount you can get for your game is usually more, much more, than the trade-in value you receive from your local game store.
2. Selling your old games online is easier and hassle free – Why deal with organising a home garage sale or traffic hassles when having to travel to your local game store.
3. Selling online is free – Unless you choose eBay as an outlet to sell your old games, you can offload them without paying any money.
I managed to sell my old game “Frontlines – Fuel Of War” by posting a for sale thread at a highly popular game related forum site in my country for $30 plus post. People were making bids on how much they would pay for the game. When posting for sale threads via game related online forums, you may come across a few obstacles along the way. Once you have successfully sold one or more of your games. Once you have received the money for your old games, depending on the amount, you can either get your next game purchase cheaply or even FREE!
