Author Topic: Can I trade my PS3 in for a new Xbox 360 at gamestop?  (Read 7221 times)

yeah, title. i have a 300gb ps3 with like 15 games. If I trade it for an Xbox 360 at gamestop would I be able to get the new one?

Depends on how much money they give you for the system and games.

But, probably not. People at GameStop are cheap and don't give you more than a dollar for games. Well, atleast not at my GameStop.

sell them on amazon or ebay instead

You could call and ask them.
You won't be getting your moneys worth going to GameStop though.

Gamestop likes to rip you off to get their own profit.

I bought LEGO Indiana Jones for $30 used once and the next week I went to sell it back, they were offering $5.  forget that stuff.

sell them on amazon or ebay instead

I just got 50 dollars from gamestop
I sold 3 wii games, 2 xbox games and 1 psp game
I got oblivion
it was sweet

You can get quite a bit in trade in money if you use their in store only credit.  They have special deals once in a while sometimes 24/7.  Basically, if you take straight up cash you will lose up to 20% on the value they'd give you if you did in store credit.

Here are their weekly deals page:

These offers will tell you how much more percent you can get which is up to 30% at most currently but only if you use in store credit but 30% extra would help you quite a bit in affording a new xbox 360 as they go for 300 max for 250 GB.  But, since you have 15 games and a 300 GB, most likely, new PS3, you could easily afford it and much more.

I suggest keeping the PS3. PS3 has been pumping out more exclusives than xbox right now and not only that but I just got costume quest for free on PSN+.

I sold my 2 year old Xbox360, and about 12 games for a PS3.

Trade in your PS3 and ALL of its stuff, and you might be able to get one. I traded my Wii for a 360.

Why trade? Who would give up free online play for online play you have to pay for?
