By now, I think we've all established that Gamestop is a complete con of a business when it comes to trading in used materials. For this reason, I was hoping some of the Giant Bomb community might be able to come and help me out and suggest where I might sell the things I'm looking to sell (because unfortunately, I'm strapped for cash right now) and what is a reasonable price I should look for it all. 
 
I have:
A Used (good condition, never red ringed) Xbox 360 Arcade version with a controller and a headset for xbox live.
A wireless internet adapter
A 256 (I think) mb memory card
Used copies of GTA IV and Halo 3: ODST and an xbox live compilation disc of arcade titles (came with the system)
 
I'm just really looking for a place to sell this at if anyone has any idea, if it helps at all I'm in the US.

eBay will get you the best price by far.

Yes, use eBay.  Gamestop will only give you $80 and one shoelace.

Have you tried cheapassgamer.com? It's a great community, and you can sell your items on their marketplace. Registration is free, and there's no fee to pay for selling to other users. Oh yeah, and you can leave feedback for both buyers and sellers, like in ebay and amazon, so you'll have a fairly good idea of the type of people you're dealing with.
They might also be able to point you to other places where you could sell your used stuff for a reasonable price.

Craigslist has been working great for me, as a buyer. I've been swindling folks left and right, it's fantastic.
 
Last week, I paid $25 for Socom: Confrontation, Fallout 3, and Resistance 2.

@Kbm600: like the rest, craigslist and ebay. Everyone makes craigslist out to be a lot worse than it really is.  And as for ebay, go on there and search for what you're tryign to sell.  Get a range for the prices that are up there already, and put it up there for what you think you would buy it for.

@Ryax:  it sometimes can be weird. there can be scammers there. i bought a broken 360 rrod and the person gave me the wrong power cable. he said that he would be in town weekend and he never returned my calls after that. i bought a power brick on ebay which was good. 
 
i didn't get it fixed but i found another use for the broken 360 stuff.  i ended up using the broken parts and using them for the working 360.
