I have 17 games (mostly gamecube) that I want to sell/get rid of, but i know at Gamestop I'm going to get sh*t on a stick for all of them.

Are there any better ways to trade them out or sell them?
The reason this comes to mind is one winter a while back they offered an extra $5 if there was box+instructions...which was awesome, but I don't believe I'd ever see that again.

I did a similar thing and got about 30$ worth from PS2 games. If you still have your GC, id say keep 'em. I regret trading in so much games I wish I now had.

Ive gotten 9 dollars for easily 50 bucks worth of games using eBay once.

Id just use gamestop. As much as it sucks, its probably the best bet.

I strongly suggest you not relinquish your games to any business entity or anyone for that matter. Time will pass and you will have an urge to go back and play those games again, if anything for the nostalgia aspect alone. I have heard of way too many people regreting the act of trading games or selling them only to miss those very same games.

I understand the thought can be tempting, with immediate gratification knocking at your door, but a little patience might just prove to be your best friend when it comes circumstances such as this. In the future, who knows, you might have some games that will be worth more than you originally paid for them.
