Stealing is the way forward. NG + CAD is pretty much unstoppable

Playing Fifa 09 and loving it. I completely suck at it though

Jesus Gamestation are a rip off when it comes to trade in prices. I had 8 games to take in to trade at lunchtime - Star Wars: Force Unleashed; Mass Effect Tin Edition; Top Spin 3; PES 2008; Euro 2008; Condemned 2; Bioshock; Smackdown vs Raw 2008 - so I thought I'd take them to Computer Exchange first. They offered me £121 in trade for the lot, which is a very good price, but they don't do new games and it takes at least a month for the new releases to become easy to get. I then took the games to Gamestation, and they offered me £71 for the lot! Rip off merchants! Just traded in Star Wars and Top Spin 3 and got Fifa 09 for £3, and I'll take the rest back to Computer Exchange (the remaining games will get me £68 in trade value), and I'll just wait for stuff like Fable to show up there. I'm not wasting £50 in trade value just to get the games quicker :/

That's the reason I now only buy the new games I want or wait for the others to appear cheap

Trade-in prices are a joke at the moment

Davey_Pitch · 03-10-2008, 13:12

As I said, Computer Exchange do good prices, and Gamestation do a price match on trade ins, but CEX don't provide proof of prices, so I couldn't get them to price match. Just a shame Computer Exchange don't get new games in. I may just have to try to get friendly with the staff there and see if I can get one of them to drop me a heads up when something like Fable 2 comes in 2nd hand.

leowyatt · 03-10-2008, 13:19

You not buying fable 2 new??

Haly · 03-10-2008, 13:23

That's ridiculous!
Wish we had a CEX here

So much better for prices. I hardly ever trade in stuff at Gamestation, I just ebay instead but it'd be nice to have the convenience of CEX.
