I'd also like to add the stuff I traded in to Funcoland. 15-20 years ago I really didn't think games were going to get big like they are now. I traded stuff like Suikoden II, Earthbound, and many other retro games back in the day when they were fairly new-ish. --- End quote --- to be fair if it was fairly new your trade in value wouldn't be nickle and dimes, quite a nice amount. Besides after inflation over the many years, even games like suikoden II have pretty much the same value like when they were sold brand new back in the day unless they are factory sealed. Earthbound yes if it is complete in box otherwise pretty much the same story. |

A couple times. When I was younger I oked the selling of my ps2 and all of the ps2 and ps1 games I had so we could get an Xbox 360. Since then I've both repurchased and resold ps2s and games, and have also bought and sold my own personal 360 and games. I've regretted pretty much all instances especially the first ps1 and ps2 lots that were sold. I've reacquired a lot of the titles I've lost from the numerous sales but not all, especially some of the more expensive ps1 games. In the end though I think that selling titles so my family could get the newer generation consoles was worth it, even if once I got to the point of wanting to go back and replay a lot of these older titles I'm having to reacquire them. |

My story is a bit more painful. I was living with a girl around the time Morrowind was current (the reason I mention that has to do with the story). I loved Morrowind like no other. I used to come home from work and play til I would be too tired to continue and go to bed, wake up and start all over again. Well, I also had a sweet PS1 collection at the time and a lot of well cared for SMS/NES/SNES games too like DW 1-4, Chrono Trigger, etc. The girlfriend was sick and tired of me spending more time with Morrowind than her. So one day while I was at work she took all of my game stuff to Game Xchange and sold it all off. She got $40 for everything. That included my CIB copy of Magic knight Rayearth and my CIB + guide book copy of Valkyrie profile. When I got home, she told me what she did, gave me the $40 and told me she was leaving. I have since replaced every single piece other than that CIB+guide book of Valkyrie profile. Replaced her too. |
