Ripped off?

[bowspearer]

Do you think I should have gotten more from them for all those games?

Yes and no. Should you have gotten more for the games in general terms? Hell yeah! Should you expect to get more when trading stuff in at a store that wants to buy games with the same retail markup as when they're buying brand new ones at retail? Definitely not.

Like people have said, trade-ins at game stores are a sure fire way to get ripped off (unless there's some crazy special like what Jb-Hifi offered when Pokemon Black/White came out).

Where would you guys recommend to trade/sell games/consoles? Cos I'm seriously thinking about offloading my Wii and all my Wii games.

Depending on what you have, I might be interested.

I've seen new copies of most of those games for sale for $15 or less. So if you got $8 for them that sounds about right. Retailers don't really want copies of Forza 3 now that Forza 4 is out.
