    GameStop is nuts!

    Only offer me $6 for trading in 17 to 18! I just paid $5 to pre order. Sad that I don't have a Best Buy around. [emoji20]

    What do you expect them to give you? They aren't going to give $20-$30 on a game they don't expect to sell.

        Can't you just trade it to BestBuy thru their website?

              The trade value of Madden always drops significantly in August. Best to trade that in earlier in the summer. I traded mine in around May/June and it was around $15. They know that once 18 comes out, 17 will rarely see a purchase.

                Yeah, you aren't going to get 15 for a used game that they are selling for 9 bucks more. Its a business that has made their money off the used game market....they know what they are doing.

                    Seems like a reasonable price for a year old sports game that they will make very little profit on if and when they do sell it. If you want more for it sell it on eBay or Craigslist.

                      I kept it. I got a great offline franchise on it.

                        You're a little late to the party. GameStop has been like this for more than a few years now. This isn't back in day. The whole GameStop trade in era is pretty much dead

                            They give you $15 for the game and a $10 coupon (EVEN THOUGH YOUR NOT A CLUB MEMBER. Like me ) This is my first year going best buy route. Gamestop won't even price match best buy. I've called numerous times and nothing. So yes Best Buy is getting my money from here on out. I was a gamestop person too.

                              I don't even bother anymore. I just buy digital now and bypass giving them my business. Plus it saves me the trouble of having to go in and deal with GameStop.
