    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.

    - Flat Out: UC
    - Left 4 Dead
    - Call of Duty: World at War
    - Gears of War 2
    - Project Gotham Racing 4
    - NHL 2k8
    - Saints Row 2 (Special Edition)
    - Gears of War (Special Edition)
    - Dead Rising
    - Halo 3 (Special Edition)
    - Assassins Creed
    - Kameo
    - King Kong
    - Viva Pinata (Special Edition)
    - NHL 2k6
    - Saints Row
    - NFL Madden 2007
    - NHL 2k7
    - Wired controller

    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

    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.

    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.

    Is that site only for Canada or does it include the US? If not, does anyone have a site you can suggest?

    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.

    It's just for Canada.
    I've considered creating an American counter-part, but do not know any Americans that have offered to help me find some values.

    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.

    Well, your friend is gaining actual $$ where you're stuck with very restricted space bucks.

    Just so you're aware, once www.tivs.ca is fully functional it will be ported to www.tivs.us which will exclusively list American trade in retailers.

    Unless things are very different in canada there's no way in hell your going to get that much. 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.
