Any of you guys ever trade in your ps3 to GameStop?

[luckyluchiano]

I don't play it anymore and its pretty much collecting dust, I got the slim joint, now much do you guys think I'll get?

And also do I need to wipe it clean or will gamestop do that? What exactly do I need to do to wipe it? I googled and seen various stuff and I don't wanna ruin the system.

I wanna trade it for a nexus 7. ( got an ipad3 but hey who cares)

Might as well donate it if you're set on letting GS have it.

Seriously, see how much your can get for it on CL/Ebay or hell even the B/S forum.

Kicked in the balls>GS

not srs.

Gamespot is probably going to give you a lowball offer..

Craigslist

how much u want pleighboi?

ill buy if the price is right

 

[do work son]

better bring your own lube if you're gonna take it to gamestop, because they won't provide any when they $%^& you

Gamestop is having an extra $25 bonus if you trade in a console. However, even the newest models of the PS3 (Slim version) are currently trading at $80-85. Highest value is the 320GB Slim = $110.

KEEP IN MIND: if you are trading for CASH instead of store CREDIT, take 20% off the trade in value and promotions (extra $25) won't apply

Like everyone else, I would recommend eBay or CL. However, if you're forced to trade in, try any other video game store (even small local shops) or Best Buy so that your store credit can be spent on other electronics (the Nexus 7 you mentioned) that GameStop won't have.

good luck

Stay away from Gamestop. You'd be better going to Pawn Stars, at least they'll give you a reason on why you're getting ripped off.

I'd stay away from GameStop trading in consoles. Better off selling it on Craigslist or here on NT.

Someone I know was given a whopping $60 for their PS3. Not sure what the specs were but it was 3 months old & hardly used.

 

[luckyluchiano]

Does best buy sell the nexus? I'd sell on eBay or NT But I don't wanna deal with shipping something like that

Didn't some NT'er say they were giving him just $60 for it just last week? :x

Go to Craigslist, You'll get the best deal there.

I'd rather let Michael Jackson babysit before I tried to trade anything through Gamestop.  "Oh...you're trading your PS3?  Here's $38." 

Place is a ******g ripoff.  You're better off going through CL or even Amazon.  You'll get much more $ in return.

Google Voice will let you use another number while using your same phone.

And utilize Craigslist, it's much better for everyone than selling to retail stores.

create a dummy email account and go from there.  just remember to do ur selling in a public place.  its simple.

better off selling it to one of those smaller game stores, Gamestop pretty much rips people off especially if it's used
