That's $540 worth of games; that being said, you probably would get right at $60 or less and that is unacceptable.ck02623

Why is it unacceptable to get money back? If you have already payed the money how can you get ripped off from some one buying the game?

well..because there is a huge deficit between the amount you paid for the game and the amount you recieve when you sell it. Most games that are given back to eb or other video game outlets are put back on ths(e shelves and cost three times more than what they gave you.

Selling on eBay or Amazon is a way better idea

Regardless of what they do with it after they buy it from you, you are still not losing any money as you cannot lose money you have already spent. You can earn more money as long as you are willing to wait for it, but some don't want to.

Also the fact that they sell it for more than they buy the game for is a good business tactic.

You can get ripped off when your selling something you once bought. I could sell my house if someone offers 1 euro but its worth a lot more (not that much more but stil). Same with these stores, they buy games far below the price that they stil are worth. There are far better ways to sell it for far more money, so its unacceptable to sell it for that price. But if you think its acceptable then do so but its not something I would advice the TC.

Yeah, there's a huge deficit. Just ask yourself "Did I get $540 (or close to) of fun out of these?"

That's really what you pay for anyway- you shouldn't buy games or other leisure items as an investment. I use half.com myself (I'm a bitter ex-gamestop employee), but still, there is the compensation of having played them.

Just don't do what I do and sell games you aren't done with. You'll regret it. :(
