Thank god I have a local game store in my old neighborhood across the 'city. I traded in my old Game Gear and 4 games, (in good condition) plus 3 GBA games (later) got me $52 bucks in their store credit. I dunno if it's good or bad, but I got a way better deal than anywhere else.

Street Fighter 2X for GBA was worth $20 bucks to them.

And also, they'd do the "current events in gaming" talk. I love them, and it's good their still around. (of course, that was the ONLY game store in my old town)
