"Madden 2002 + Thunderhawk + £35 ... for nothing!"

It's been a good day today.

I traded in Madden 2001 and some more old PSone stuff at my local Game store. (Would have done it at SR, but I don't have a local shop!)

They offered me £113 for the lot.

So I got Thunderhawk: Operation Phoenix and Maddeden 2002, plus £35 in gift vouchers.

First time I've ever left computer/games store better off than when I went in. :-)

As I understand it, what you'll get depends on three factors:

1. the age of the game
2. its popularity
3. its condition

All of these determine what the shop feel they can charge for it as a pre-owned title. You won't get much if the game is very old, or if it wasn't a major title the first time around. If the CD is marked, or the manual or box are damaged, then you'll get slightly less still.

What I traded today were:

PS2:
Madden 2001 (£20)

PS1:
Link cable
ASCII Resident Evil controller
Time Crisis + G-Con pack
Ridge Racer 4 + JogCon pack
Fear Effect
V-Rally 2
Point Blank
Driver 2
Syphon Filter 2
Dino Crisis
Dino Crisis 2
...and one other game I can't recall at the moment.


The prices they gave me for the PSone items varied from £3 to £15, and I think £15 will be the absolute maximum you'd get for a PSone game now.

PS2 games will obviously get more. I've traded in 3 PS2 titles so far, including Madden 2001 as detailed above. The other two were Shadow of Memories (£20) and Sky Odyssey (£15).

Of course, it also depends on what you've got and where you trade them in.

Hope that helps.

I cant think of any GAME shops in London.Dammit

Thats not bad at all - Im thinking of trading in NHL 2001 and a few PSOne bits for NHL 2002!!

I have 15 games that i would like to get rid of, 2 PS2 games and the rest PS1.

It would be a shame to let the PS1 games go as i have a large collection, but whats the point in having them when they are not played.

Thanx Wookiee. How much do you reckon I will get for:

Constructor
LMA Manager
ALL Star Tennis
Premier Manager 98
FIFA 99
FIFA 2000
Civilisation 2
V-Rally 2

I am not selling FF games plu couple others. I just thought you would know....

Thanx Wookiee

Sorry for interupting but head over to the "why MGS2 is delayed" topic, trust me check it out for new info and charcater list.

Sorry if im posting in the wrong topic but some new info has risen and everyone needs and wants to know about the best game ever.

Several old game. What pushed it up though was Ridge 4 with the JogCon controller in its original box, and Time Crisis with the lightgun - again in its original box.

All my stuff is/was in mint condition, also.

What's more, they're also starting to sell the Sega Game Gear again, as part of some 'retro' scheme; so they've obviously got some old units from somewhere.

I'm taking mine up next weekend, along with the TV tuner, battery pack, screen magnifier and games; so I wonder how much I'll get for that?!

What old PSone stuff would that be? Cause I am thinking of trading some of my games.....
