How Much?

I'd sell private. I can't bring myself to trade stuff in with the prices they offer you. I'd be less offended if they spat in my face to be quite honest!


Sometimes they give good trade in prices on relatively new stuff. I got 20 for a PGR3 I bought for 25 with a wireless pad so I was pretty happy with that. Newer games can get good prices. They seem to offer on current titles about 70% of the price they sell it for. Which I think is fair, its just old stuff they do tend to give peanuts for, but still you ogtta look at what they sell it for.

Persoanlly when something gets old I just keep it as I know Im never going to get any reasonable return.

Yeh suppose you're right, with newer titles anyway.
When SC : DA was released I went to a certain game store to buy it, only because I had a few Xbox games I needed to shift. Halo, Ninja Gaiden Black and Burnout Takedown. Now I know I wasn't going to get a lot for them but when they knocked 3 quid off the price of Double Agent it felt like such a kick in the face! Ok they're old games but they were immaculate condition and surely worth more than 3 quid combined!?
Traded them anyway because I'm never going to play them again :D

Best bet is to give them a ring, probably not much for some of the older ones. I assume they are all in good condition, boxed etc etc.


Nope. :( All used but in good condition, matrix is the only game that is still in its cover.

Have you phoned anywhere for a price yet? If the games arn't properly boxed they won't usually take them.

Sorry for that, they are all in there covers, all in excellent condition but are used, i tried to phone yesterday but they were not answering, will try again today, sorry for the inconveniance.

really a lot of that stuff is pretty worthless, what make is the steering wheel if its a cheapo one they might not even take it.

The only thing really worth anything is the ps2 itself. Listing things like the leads makes your list look big but if you really look at its stuff like fifa 2004 wont get much more than 50p (its 1 pound second hand).

Even stuff like mGS 2 is only sold for 2.99 so they will prob give you 1.70 or something. Id be suprised if that list made it to a 100. Its really just a case of how much for the consoe and the pad.


Some of your games they will sell for 7.99 or less and they will be on buy 4 for 20 quid so they will prob give you on average 3-4 pounds per game.

Im gonna guess at 80 pounds for the lot. Sorry.

:eek: MGS 2 is only sold for 2.99....bargain! :p I am going to phone later as they didn't answer last night.
 
Why don't you just stick it on that auction site and let it find it's own price, I would have thought it would still fetch more than the shop will give you for it.

ROFL :p I really do feel very inconvenienced :D ;) Yea, I have to say SH prices on PS2s and games are really low at the moment, chuck it in in your local freeadds www.adtrader.co.uk. I sell loads of bits in there and there is never any hassle, people also use the online site a lot and the last few months nothing i have advertised has ever made it to the paper before being sold.

Looks like a good site, went through the PS2 section and 1 man sold a PS2,Memory card and 11 games for 160, good price, i have more than that so should be able to sell mine for more if it doesn't go well with the shop im going to phone late.
