Game Stop Rips You Off On Trade In Values! Don't use Game Stop for trade ins. They will rip you off! Savannah Georgia

You were quoted a price and you decided not to accept that price for the trade in of your games. Because they operate in a capitalist and free economy, they can set whatever price they want to buy used games from people. If the price they set was too high, they wouldn't make money, if they set a price too low, nobody would sell them their used games.

And also they are buying used games from people for so low because of the marginal value of the games. Once someone is done playing with a game and gets a new one or something, that game is going to sit in a box on their shelf maybe to be played only sparingly ever again, if at all. It is actually worth very little to the person that put it on the shelf, therefore, why wouldn't you accept at least 10$ or 15$ for something that is now practically worthless to you anyways? That is why people continue to sell their games to GameStop and GameStop continues to set its prices according to supply and demand.

If you wanted to work around this, you should find someone who is willing to pay GameStop's listed price for one of your old games, and then sell it to them instead of GameStop...but therein lies the convenience of GameStop.

They are offering a Trade-In value of $16.00 for a game that was $45. It is your choice to take it or not. This reminds me of the people that complain that a car dealer does not give them what they "think" their car is worth in trade in. Yet when they go and try and sell it on their own they realize it may not have been such a bad deal after all.

Just curious, how much do you think you should get for the game?

Both of your games were released a year ago. A game that has been out for a long time loses it value because of lack of interest. Say you buy the next Final Fantasy the day it comes out and finish it in two days, even if you paid 60 bucks for it, youll probably only get a trade in value of 40 to 50 if your lucky.

that it COSTS MONEY to maintain a store front and staff employees. Think about these costs; building and parking lot maintenance, utilities, property taxes, business licensing, permits, and insurance, employee wages, benifits, unemployment insurance premiums and workmen's comp insurance premiums. All of these "burdens" cost money-none of it is cheap.

Any retailer is going to want substantially MORE than the paid for it.
