    How much do Game buy games from you? do you have to do a trade in or do they just buy them from you and sell them on second hand?

    how much they will give you will depend on the game - they will have a list of wot it's worth,from wot i remember they will buy it straight from u but... i could be wrong.

    It seems that they go mainly by the date that the game was released and then give you a price.

    Had a PS1 game that I want to sell and they only offered me one Euro for it :(

    The game beside me seems to buy it off you for a third of the full price, and sell it off for two thirds. (eg: $45 game, give you $15, sell for $30)

    From when I worked there (ages ago) it was based on the full price of the game so a £50 game you might have got 10-15 bills for it. Then they'd sell it for £45. Cheeky as ****.

    Also it doesn't matter how good the game was something that would sell quick second hand like Vice City or summat you get the same amount for as a piece of crud that had just been released.
