Best place to sell old XBOX games?

Submitted by rapture on Sun, 01/21/2007 - 10:13pm.

Slayer and others:

I've got several old XBOX games that I don't play and won't ever play again. Is there some place local that will buy these games from me? If so, how much will try give me?

I'm guessing EB and Rhino are the two best places? Which is better?

Thoughts?

I'll buy them from you for a higher price than EB or Gamestop depending on the games.

Mintz, convenience is also worth a lot. How much is it worth to rapture to stop by one place on his way home from work and offload all his old games with no haggling? What is the marginal cost of coordinating with you to determine what games you want, what XYZ store will pay him for them, therefore what is a fair price for you to pay for them, link up with you, and make the transaction?

Well, rap won't have to deal with the retail experience, he can easily stop by here on his way home from work, he'll get more money from me, I can give him cash or straight to his PayPal, etc. It's up to rapture whether he decides it's worth it or not.

I'm not interested in any of the games. Sorry if I wasted any of your time.

Aha! I'd say you cost rapture a good $5 worth of going to get the games from the living room and typing in the names...all for naught.
