is gamestop trying to rip me off?

[VanRedgrave13]

I stopped reading at 'GameStop.' That place does nothing but rip people off.

agreed

Wow. It's almost funny that Gamestation sells them for £12 and tends to have them always in supply where I live.

I can't believe how expensive the games still are. I went to Gamestop last week to sign up for some tourtiments and I seen that the RE2 for the GC was $40!!

Games are only ever worth as much as you're willing to pay for them. What's one persons idea of a ripoff will be a bargain to someone else. If you think they're expensive, you generally know that already.

Not to mention, those prices are still over the top expensive anyway.

as long as capcom and nintendo keeps RE-release them they wont go down for along while

Well that doesn't work. If Capcom keeps re-releasing the old games, then the demand for those older ones will shrink, and the price will come down.

That's the European version, not the American version.

Seriously? I have the CVX GC port and I've had it for years. It was the first version of it I had, I had the PS2 port after that. Never knew it was worth so much, thought it'd only be worth about £5 (that's how much I got my PS2 one for). I knew the RE2 and RE3 ports would be a tad higher. It is worth it though, I love playing RE2 and RE3 on my Wii rather than dragging my PS2 out.

yha thats what im gonna be playing it on is my wii.

This.
In the 5 Gamestations I have been, 4 had RE1, 2, 3 and 0, whilst the other also had CVX, all for £12.
Oh, and if more go, more come in.
It's shocking its so much in America....

On Ebay a few years back, RE2 and 3 were really rare or just very popular, and went for $50+ a piece...used or new.

[Weskers Flag]

Psh, just buy them used. That's what I do.

[Stu]

Psh, just buy them used. That's what I do.

Those WILL be the used prices.

[Branden_Lucero]

gamestop always tries to rip people off. i don't know why anyone goes there.

[nemesiswontdie]

Psh, just buy them used. That's what I do.

the ones im talking about are used.

You'll be surprised. I bought an Used copy of RE3 on GC for $39.99, Good thing the box
was in mint condition and had its instruction booklet otherwise I would have been real
pissed. I got myself a copy of RE2 from Amazon with a nice price tag of $29.99 NEW!,
so I went ahead and bought it...then, 6 months later I lent it to a friend and he lost the
game and decided to pay me for the whole game. 2 months later I found myself a copy
of the game in gamestop for $29.99 used but the game looked like it was brand new:
box, booklet, etc.

I bought CVX GC when it came out (I believe it was November of 2003), because I had
an urge to play it since I never played the game and didn't spoil myself (thank God). No problem there.

Here's a picture I took Recently of CVX (GC port) with a Huge retail CVX box that was given to me (long story!).



Here's another picture of all GC ports with the most recent next-gen games in
chronological order so people can check how deteriorated the boxes have gotten
after so many years. XD
