Perfect Time to Sell a PlayStation 3

PS3-GameStop

Not too long ago, I wrote a piece about my experience trading in my broken down Xbox 360 for an awesome sum of $125. Now, GameStop is offering $200 on any PlayStation 3 traded in from now until July 18, 2010. This is the ideal offer for those who would like to upgrade their PlayStation 3 at a relatively low price, or are maybe thinking about jumping over to the Xbox 360 or Wii side of gaming. And of course, this could also be a great deal for people who just want a few more games or dollars in their pocket.

**Update** What’s Up With Xbox and GameStop?

tv offersheader

I’m going to start off by saying that my original Xbox 360 was acting real sketchy. It began making a lot of weird noises and sounded significantly louder. It almost sounded as if the fan was busted or overworking. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if that was the case. It would also overheat every now and then. What worried me even more was that the overheating was becoming more and more frequent. I decided to sell my Xbox before it was too late. Sell my Xbox before it got the red rings of death!

Trade-Ins: The Ugly Truth

Oh dear me this subject cannot go without a bashing. I simply cannot allow it, because every time this topic goes untouched, I feel like I have testicular cancer. It’s very tough to prove that theory, I know. All gamers, large and small, at least once in their life, have traded in games to their local trade-in game store, for either cash or credit so they can continue to buy games at a bigger discount. Sounds reasonable, right? To me this was the greatest thing that ever came to gaming, especially when income was an issue. I could trade in my games that I would never play anymore, and in return I could buy games that I would play. This was so sweet, but yet to the trained eye, it was also very sour.

Toys R Us, Say Hello To Game Trade-Ins

Everyone and their mother, at least here in the US, knows Toys R Us. It’s one of the biggest toy stores in the country, with their known mascot Geoffrey the Giraffe (who’s been missing for quite some time, now that I think about it. Surprisingly, he’s not on milk cartons). Every kid in America has gone through their doors. But now, it seems as if gamers will be more potent to pay a visit to the conglomerate toy store.
