What should I do with games I don't play anymore and want to get money for?

Some people say trading in is the best option. But which stores offer the better trade in's (Gamestop/Eb or Blockbuster)? Also, do all these stores give me credit or do some give me cash. Thanks for the help!
 
I wouldn't recommend going through gamestop/eb/blockbuster unless you don't care about how much money you earn from selling your used games. Keep in mind they're essentially the middle man and therefore need to make a profit off of each game they buy from you. In other words, you won't be getting the full resale value of your used games if you go through them.

The best way is to sell or trade your games yourself. I use Ebay to sell hard to obtain games or recent games that are less than 3 months old. For getting rid of more common games I would suggest using a trading site. The best free one I have found is gametz.com
 
however during one of the trade in deals you might get more from eb/gs than selling for some of the lower value games.
 
Give them to hookers in lieu of cash?
Will do when I turn in 18 (3 months)

But anyways, I obviously wouldn't sell games like FF7 to Gamestop (gets 80 bucks on Ebay, used greatest hits version), but I'm talking about shit games like 007 Agent Under Fire and Return to Castle Wolfenstein PS2 version that wouldn't get me more than 5-10 bucks on Ebay. Wouldn't it be less of a pain in the ass to just sell those to gamestop/eb/bb?

Also, thanks for the suggestions kinesis, i'll try gametz out

This is the best place to trade games. But for older games that wouldn't get you much, you might want to hold onto them for a trade in deal at EB or something.

yeah but keep in mind those games sell for 9.99 or less, so you wont be getting more than a dollar or two on each if theyre those kind of games.
 
dude, get in trouble as much as you can, you have 3 months until you can only blame yourself.

fuck alot of girls, not one, but alot. and if you havent seen it, its from little miss sunshine, trade your games in for that.
