Idk about any of you guys, but I refuse to do any kind of business with GameStop, not just regarding selling them my old games, systems, and controllers; but also buying anything from them.
The reason being I decided that I cant support that kind of a business, I mean they wanna give you 5% of what a game is worth (or even less) ? Obviously it depends on how old the game is, how in demand it is, etc; and yes they have to make a profit, but they want to make too much of a profit.
When I heard they may be going out of business (unless someone else buys the business and tries to turn it around), all I have to say is that it is about time.
I have probably bought 1 game from them the last 3 or 4 years simply because it was half the price I expected it to be, otherwise I am not doing business with that kind of company.
I'm surprised anybody would lug their old stuff in and maybe get 20 or $30 (probably less though) for what is probably $200 or $300 (which is pretty reasonable on an old system if you have a bunch of really good games and extra controllers and whatnot)
