    I'm going up to Dublin this weekend and I want to trade in two of my old games and get Crackdown. Could people advise what store will give me the best deal for my trade-ins? Smyths, Gamestop etc?

    You won't get Crackdown on a straight swop in any of them for two games.
    And yet they still charge 50+ for the games 2nd hand.
    Actually in Game yesterday, Viva Pinata was €45 brand new, and €55 second hand....

    Gamestop will take 2 games of you and give a new game for 9.99.
    Thats what the chap in Dun Laoghaire told me yesterday when I traded in my Ps2 for the Premium. :D

    What kind of insulting price do you reckon gamestop would give for Oblivion as a trade against Crackdown? Never could get into it.

    FYI - Smyths won't trade in games missing anything like a manual or cover or whatever but gamestop will. Gamestop won't take in games that have a "Not to be sold outside bundle" stickers on them but Smyths will. I had both these probs on Monday. The best deal is trade 2 games get new one for €9.99. Argos are the cheapest for games followed by Smyths but if your not trading buy em at CD Wow online. They accept laser and are around €15 cheaper.

    Yup, this I knew.

    9.99 plus two old games for a new one? That sounds better than I expected. Nice one. Gamestop it is so.

    A guy in Game a few years ago told me they paid 1/3 of their second hand selling price.

    Xtravision claim to give the best price for trades-in but never tried them.
