Trading games in on Amazon?

[jmy2469]

Has anyone ever traded their used games in on Amazon.com?
Thinking about doing this. The trade in price is pretty decent compared to Gamestop. Just wondering how it was?

I've done it three or four times. Works well for me. I found that the prices are pretty close to a trade in a Gamestop, but the thing that makes it better is that Amazon has no tax or shipping, plus their games are always less than retail anyways so you always end up getting more by trading in at Amazon.

i would maybe try to trade here first, you can usually find someone looking for the game you want to unload and they will usually be agreeable to a 1 for 1 trade from something of theirs, which gives you a little more value than what amazon or gamestop pays, ive never traded in at amazon, but if i traded anywhere, that would be the place to do it

I've done it a few times with both games and movies, and had great results each time.

Don't forget that Amazon also offers game trading bonuses. I think currently if you trade in $60 or more worth of games, you get an extra $30 or something like that.

Plus, no tax/shipping with Amazon (as Mac said), and the fact that you can get 10% off games on Amazon with a free ECA membership, AND the fact that Amazon tends to offer $10 gift cards on many pre-orders.

What is this ECA membership? I haven't heard of that yet!

I've used Amazon's Trade-In multiple times and have had no issue whatsoever.


Well, except for when they had a certain promotion and I didn't include all the video games into my shipment.

works great highly recommended. called gamestop and they offered me 12.00 for a relatively new game while amazon offered 33.00, no brainer. free shipping labels, easy to use, instant credit in your account once they verify your games.
