People still go to the book store to pay full-price for brand new copies of Crime and Punishment, or Don Quixote.

LOL seriously? You can't figure it out? The guy who complains about the Wii's 'weak' processor power and 'critically important' lack of 5.1 sound? Games now are more like a status symbol to see who can run the most frames per second at 1920x1080 or have the best pixel shader around. Once a new 'advancement' is made, everyone suddenly thinks less of the games they used to enjoy. Hell, people buy two overpriced SLI video cards just for a lame 20% bump in performance. :laugh2:

How many other industries have a wide franchise that will buy back your used, low demand items?

If you're remotely interested in also renting games, Gamefly is starting to accept game trade-ins as credit for membership fees. Their offers are better than Game Stop, but still nowhere near what you'd get from Ebay. And they won't have any interest in your old sports games.
I just looked up a few of your games. It looks like they won't accept your GTA games, but they'll give you $8.28 for Tekken 5.
