Toys R Us begins accepting game trade in & selling used games in-store

[Mizzou B-ball fan]

Pretty interested to see how this works. I do think that the fact that Toys R Us is listing game trade-in prices online will make for better trade in deals at TRU and Gamestop. Hopefully, it will also lead to much easier access to trade in prices at all sites.

Here's the link to the TRU trade-in site.

I used to laugh at those listed trade-in prices before the game is released, but you'd be shocked how many people trade in sports games after a week or so of play.

Trade in price is awfully good for Batman right now for those who have finished the game.

Batman is my GOTY right now, so I'm not surprised the trade price is good; I suspect there aren't as many trade-ins on it as you'd ordinarily expect for an otherwise recent'ish game.

Huh. Their trade-in price is actually higher than what I paid for the game in the first place. I guess that qualifies as 'awfully good,' at that.

Yeah, it's been sold with discounts for $40 in certain sales.

It will be interesting to see how this differs from Gamestop's. My gripe there was that they only sold the used version for like $5 under the new one. That's not enough of a discount for me to trust the used version (and screw over developers like me) over the new version. Now $10-$15 off, maybe we start talking.

They're giving a lot for Madden too. I still prefer Goozex, but not bad from a major retail store.

Sweet. We can trade our games for Geoffrey Dollars.
