    As the question says. Do they give cold hard cash or is it just store credit that you get in exchange?

    Yep, 70% of the credit value.

    CEX is a better shout if you're close to one. Their website ie.webuy.com even tells you how much they'll give you for each game.

    Buy 2 cheap games off the internet for like a fiver or tenner each (make sure they're on the Gamestop trade in list). Stroll in with the 2 games and trade them in and pay a tenner. Out you walk with a brand new game and you can sell it for about 40-45 quid.

    that worked brilliantly when they had some random psp games on the list that were like a tenner each in hmv one time :pac:

    Yeah its unlikely you can do that these days. You still pay a decent penny for most of the games they mention online or in other stores. For ps3 and xbox 360 anyway.
