But considering the esteem that GameStop's trading/reselling scheme is held in my circles, I doubt any of you will mind.

This month, I had occasion to try to pick up a couple of games that have been out for a while - Need For Speed: Most Wanted for the 360, and Spyro: The Eternal Night for the Wii. I also had a copy of LEGO Indiana Jones for the 360 to offload. I decided to experiment instead of using the GameStop machine, and visited PlaySwitch.com. As of this writing, I sold LEGO Indy for 24 dollars, but I had to pay 11 for shipping (thank you, Alaska). I have also purchased and received Spyro for $15 (GameStop.com price is $18) and I have agreed to a price for Most Wanted for $11 (GameStop.com price is $20).

PlaySwitch.com usually charges $1 to the buyer and the seller per trade, but they have suspended that for the month of December.

It's worth a look, I think. I've had a good experience so far and will keep using them for now.
