Well I don't think you will get a huge amount
We have a new bigger cex open up in town and they had dozens of ps4 killzones on the shelf at just 25 pound
The other ps4 titles where still around 40 second hand

Seems market is swamped

I mostly see people talking about trading CEX and Game off each other. Usually CEX offer the most, and some Game stores offer you a pound more than CEX. Doesn't sound much, but if you have a few games to trade in, plus both stores near you, then its worth doing I guess.

I tend to wait these days until games have plummeted in price and then it doesn't bother me so much about trading them. Or alternatively, I'm a member of a gaming forum with a reasonably active trading folder and I either sell on there, or ask for swaps for games I'm missing.

But to go down that route you'd really have to become a bit of an active user so that you could build some trust up before swapping stuff.

As one last alternative, somewhere like AVForuns has a massive classified section where you could sell stuff. Any forum method does mean wrapping things and post offices though - which can be a right pain in the arse.

Yeah - I know what you mean.

Game offers £14.00 for it...may just do that.

I made the leap and traded in the PS3 to CEX and got £60 for it. A nail biting 30 mins as they tested it. The fan has always sounded like sitting in a Vidal Sasson salon and it wasn't any quieter.

Thankfully the guy testing it also had an early release PS3 and admitted they are loud. I think the 250GB drive in to swung it.

Also traded in a stack of PS3/Wii/DS games and ended up £200 better off.

Until I was tempted by a PS Vita.

Thats my commute sorted for the near future, chugging through the back catalogue of PS Plus titles for now
Insert Coin.

Update - ended up trading in via Amazon and it was....seemless.

If the disc isn't up to their standards, they return it to you FOC, if it is better than the description you gave, they up the trade in price.

Unlike a mate of mine who used Music Magpie who said that (coincidentally) all of his most expensive CD's were mysteriously "shit" and said they'd "dispose" of them for him...skanks.
