The Beast Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Alright, you know how consumers like us buy sports games and the next year they suck because the rosters are behind? Where do you go to trade your games? Also, when do u trade an older sports game in an effort to get money out of it before the 2005 games comes out? I'm going to get rid of madden 04 and get 05...when would be a good time to trade it in? Also, when does Madden 2005 come out? I have it and San Andreas reserved.

IlliniKrush Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I've traded games back to EB before. Trade games back as soon as possible...as soon as you realize you won't play it anymore. Value only decreases over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvilJester99 Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Most of these places will rip you off big time. I use to call Funcoland.. f***OLAND. Its either sell em for basically nothing or keep them and still have nothing though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Queen Prawn Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I picked up NHL 2001 a few months back from Game Stop for $4. I wonder how much they gave for a trade-in... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiff Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Yeah trading in sports games right before the new ones comes out means you get jack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox_Sonix Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Here, at EB sports games get max up to $10 store credit, maybe $15 for a Nascar or NCAA game. But thats just the prior year. Go back 2 years and you're lucky to get $5. I dont bother trading them in, cuz for $5 i might as well just keep it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beast Posted July 21, 2004 Author Share Posted July 21, 2004 I'm looking for 7-8 dollars in trade value for Madden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guapotaco Posted July 21, 2004 Share Posted July 21, 2004 I wonder how much youd get for Tecmo Super Bowl... 1991... Id NEVER in my life trade it in, but i wonder if you can get a fairly decent price somewhere, seeing as its the best game of all time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 I'm looking for 7-8 dollars in trade value for Madden. haha yea right. Last week they would only give me a buck, the only way to get 7-8 bucks is to sell it to some idiot not to a store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I once gave a guy a 2 dollar bill for 5 bucks because he wanted one so bad, i didnt tell him you could just exchange 2 singles for a 2 dollar bill at the bank Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighHeat45 Posted July 22, 2004 Share Posted July 22, 2004 That's awesome. I read the word "Bid" as "Bill" at first in your post at first which made me go off topic now we can go back to talking about how you get ripped off selling games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
