I am planning on buying these games from my cousin, then turn around and sell them at EB Games. I haven't had a chance to bring the list to the store yet so I thought I would check it out on here.

I am paying $130 for all these games, all of which are for the Xbox 360. How much do you guys think I will get, in Canadian, from EB Games
Xbox 360
Platform »
The Xbox 360 is the second game console produced by Microsoft Corporation and is the successor to the original Xbox.
How much do you think I will get for these games?
"Sorry I forgot to mention I already have or did have all these games..Ah my bad I thought you were getting rid of them even if they were not doubles.
"
Look them up at this website. That website gives prices from various stores (including EB/Gamestop) on trade-in values.
"You're probably spending more money buying from your cousin then you'll get in return if you sell to EB.Yeah thats why I thought I would try and figure it out first.
"
According to that site I will get $279 and thats without the controller. Obviously I don't expect that much but with an estimate of over double, I think I can expect to make some money..
"According to that site I will get $279 and thats without the controller. Obviously I don't expect that much but with an estimate of over double, I think I can expect to make some money.."Hey nathan, I'm the admin of the website posted.
The site is indeed maintained quite frequently, so as long as the prices have been updated relatively recently you can expect that much.
"According to that site I will get $279 and thats without the controller. Obviously I don't expect that much but with an estimate of over double, I think I can expect to make some money.."That isn't too bad, you have a couple of games in there that still sell alot, so that is not a surprise.

Dude, I'm not even sure you'll make a profit here. I'm no expert on how much used games go for, but I can tell you that it's a total rip off and you shouldn't even bother selling them back.
Look them up at Amazon and shave 2-3 dollars. GS (I'm assuming GS has the same trade in values as EB) seems to consistently be a couple dollars less than Amazon.

I'm not trying to bring you down, but I think there are only 5 games on that list that will get you more than $10.
