I went to EB games today to trade in a few of my 360 games that I don' t play anymore, and stumbled upon a great deal they have going on right now.

I traded in:

Madded 07
NHL 07
BFME 2
Lost Planet
Dead Rising
Saints Row
Call of Duty 3

Now, the deal they have going is trade 3 and get a new upcoming release for free. So, for these games I am going to get Call of Duty 4 and Assassins Creed collector' s editions for free when they are released.

Now I know that I could have sold the games on EBAY and possibly got more than the $140 bucks these 2 games cost, but I still think that this was a great deal.

7 games for only 140$ when you paid well over 500$ for them sounds like a rip off to me. But I do the same thing. I don' t usually touch my older games so what can we do?

I wanted to trade in some games when I went to pick up my PSP Slim, but they wanted ID. Which is not new but they don' t accept our health cards anymore. I don' t have any ID they accept. They told me I could use my birth cirtificate. Birth certificate...fukk off I' m not bringing my birth certificate just to trade in some games. I had a bunch of games to unload, now I' m stuck with them. It' s not EB Games fault, its another dumb law we have to deal with. Time to get my drivers license.....

mmm but some of those game isnt gonna sell to anyonw these days either...

Don' t you have a car, or do you just take public transportation?

Public transportation. I take the city bus everywhere. It' s getting pretty bad actually, I' m 21 years old and I could have gotten my license at 16 but I' ve procrastinated. I don' t need a car anytime soon, but I should have taken my license 5 years ago if only to reduce my insurance rate whenever I do get a car. I' m so lazy...

Im considering going down to eb games with most of my old games, see how much i can get for them, if i can get a decent ammount, like 200$ ill sell my Wii and get myself a 40gb PS3.

Currently there are more games coming for the PS3 that i want, than there is for the PS3

I highly doubt you could have got $70 for those on ebay. That was a great deal

I just got my PS3, and it' s pretty sweet. If it' s an option I would definitely drop your Wii in favor of the PSTriple. Even if it means missing SSBB and Galaxy.

The Wii is an option, ill see how much money i can raise before selling it. I' m selling some network cameras i dont use. Ill see if i can scam soneone to buy my old PS2 for two high a price. And ill consider selling my DS as well when im done with Zelda. I cant get myself to buy 60$ DS games.

You should try selling it to someone who doesnt know anything about them or a parent who thinks they' re getting a good deal. Sell it with 3 crappy games, an extra controller, and a memory card. You should be able to get a good amount from that.

Well i sold it for 120$ or so. As to whether i can put the money towards a PS3 is unknown, since my girlfriends thinks they are better spent on christmas presents, in which she is right.

Raising the funds is going to be tougher than i thought

You should sell your furniture and then get one of those japanese tables with little pillows and just sit on your knees. It saves a lot of money and looks sophisticated
