How much would Gamestop give me for a used Xbox,controllers and about 10 games?

best value gaming computer 2011 image

Q. The games are mostly older games but i have some new ones like NBA 2K11, wwe svr 2011 and 10. If they wouldn't give much is there any other place to sell this at for a reasonable price?

Answer
Looks like I have to educate some more people who think conducting a business is "evil".

First lemme answer your question quick, I can't know what you'll get for all the games since I only can find out what you name off but:
Xbox System (system in working order, 1 controller - wireless, A/V cables, Power Adapter) - $35 (iirc)
Xbox 360 controller wireless MS brand - $12
NBA 2K11 - $12
WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2010 - $8
WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2011 - $15

Now if you have a power up pro card, you can add 10% extra to each of those plus the rest, and if done today I believe the 3/5/7 promotion is still going on trades (3 games gets 10% more, 5 get 20% more, and 7 gets 30% more credit) and that stacks with the pro card so you can see it as 20%, 30%, 40% additional trade in credit.

If you want cash it's going to be about a 25% decrease from the total value of the games and no promotions, and you should be 18 with a valid photo ID or with a parent or guardian. If you want to know the values for the others just edit and name them and I can tell you how much. And their are other places to trade/sell games.. Pawnshops, Bestbuy, some of your local gaming stores if they do allow trades...But I can GUARANTEE you that we have by far the best deals and outside of selling on ebay you won't get a better value than what we offer when combined with promotions, etc.

Now to the rest of these people. What do you really know about gamestop? Nothing, you're just "entitled" customers who feel you deserve to make exactly how much money you spent on the game however long ago. Guess what? doesn't work like that...ANYWHERE. Sure ebay can get you more, but that's because YOU are offering the games to others and it's up to them if they want to spend that amount or not. Guess what again? Most times, people know GS prices and usually won't give you anything over what they can pay at a store, so good luck getting what you THINK you deserve.

Lets look at it from this perspective. We're a business. We need to make a profit in order to run. How can a company make a profit if they are spending out more than they are selling the games at? You say you want the 50 or 60 you paid like 10 years ago on a game back just because that's how much you paid and the disc still looks pretty? Go back to school, take Econ and BuS classes and learn a thing or two. Now while I agree our base values are pretty low (corporate decides these prices FYI, they are set in stone in the computer so arguing with the employee of your local store is about as pointless as trying to run through a brick wall. WE CAN'T CHANGE THE VALUE, WE HAVE NO ACTUAL ABILITY TO DO SO)

Go ahead, shop at walmart, target, best buy, circuit city, whatever. That's up to you and if it makes you feel all cool because "you're sticking it to gamestop" kudos. However....Gamestop is still multinational. Gamestop still has over 6000 stores. Gamestop still brings in billions. Gamestop is still the #1 video game retail company in the world. And trust me, those of you who are "Anti Gamestop" really, and I do mean really, are the minority.

What can an Asian Studies major do as their career? Can they get into a video game company somehow?

I would love to work with a video game company, its been my dream since I was young. I did NOT want to design the games however, so nothing involving computer science. I also cannot draw so character design was out (although I enjoy it) I know there are many other things involved, business wise, with a game company that maybe an Asian Studies major can get into.

My question is, what can I do? Also, if not work for a game company, what else?

Answer
Before the early 20th Century, college wasnât meant to lead to a specific job but for personal enrichment. Turning you into a critical thinker for a career in public administration, the clergy or business where you would learn on the job

Since the 1940âs perception of a higher education changed & is now expected to lead to a career

The following are considered âpersonal enrichment degrees:
Anthropology
Archeology
Art
Art History
Creative Writing
Classics
English
Film
General Studies
History
Humanities
Interdisciplinary studies
Journalism
Language & Culture
Liberal Arts
Liberal Studies
Literature
Political Science
A language
Media
Music History
Paleontology
Photography
Philosophy
Religious Studies
Sociology
âAnythingâ Studies

There are far more grads than jobs in these

You can have a good life with one of these degrees but the job market does not value them highly

This is not to say you will not get a job but odds are that your job will not be related to your degree & may not pay as well as some other majors

Psychology requires a PhD in order to do well

Iâm not saying we should all be engineers, economists or doctors. But society is voting that way with its money

With a degree in the above & a GPA over 3.0 you can:

1. Get into law school. However law schools today graduate far more lawyers than needed

2. Go to grad school in a different field. Hopefully one without too many prerequisites you donât have. Consider a masters in Technology Management. You need essentially no sciences prerequisites

3. Go to grad school in the same field & earn a PhD so you can become a college professor. However, there are far more PhD grads in some fields like Philosophy than there ever will be any kind of faculty positions

Or with a lower GPA

4. Take a K-12 teaching qualification, which is usually 2 more years, so you can teach your subject at a public school

5. Look for a job in fields where they want you to have a degree, any degree. Where they want the degree because they want people who have proven they can stick with something difficult. There are more jobs like this than you may think

6. If you join the military you are more likely to enter as an officer instead of enlisted personnel

If your GPA is 3.0+ a graduate degree is more valuable than a 2nd major

What is an English major supposed to do after college?

http://www.publicradio.org/columns/prairiehome/posthost/2009/07/28/english_majors.php

This link considers certain degrees useless as the number of jobs that will be created in the field up to 2018 is less than the number of graduates in one year in that major

Here is a listing of the average starting & mid-career salaries for most 4 year majors. Note that these stats only apply to people who actually got a job in their field. Many graduates in the lower half of the list never get a job in their field & are not counted.

The higher they pay, the harder the major & generally the more math they require. Just be aware that high pay does not mean high demand.
