How much $$$ would I get for a DS lite?

[Joe]

So I think I might sell my DS lite so I can get Rouge Galaxy™ for the PS2. I would call EB games now but its 11:21pm in Colorado (North America) and Im up all night so.....
how much store credit do you think I can get.
BTW im buying a new one later this year when Dragon Quest 9 comes out but right now I just cant find any great RPGs for the DS at this time.

dont sell ur ds its a good system and its not worth getting cheap store credit they will only give you a max of 60 bucks but it will probably be like 40 i bet. i traded in my original ds and i regret it so much the only games i had were super mario 64 ds and mr driller but i miss it so much. dont make the mistake i made.

I'm thinking $40-$80.

Maybe one of us will buy it from you... Used ones sell for 99. Id assume you would get around 50$ for it?

 

[gingerkid]

yeah... ill buy it how much?

And I'd say $40-$70

thats retardeddddddd why would you sell it and then buy it. thats just dumb as hell. keep it dude trust me dont sell it and then buy a new one thats just dumb. just keep it and get that ps2 game later even though its not that great.

 

[ciper]

He didnt ask that.

I still say selling it private party is better than trading it in. If you find the trade value I'd give you more.

 

[Joe]

actually im still thinking of even selling it.....but gingerkid Im broke at this moment and none of the games I want are not even going to be around until December....and I'll actually have some cash to buy a new one! Whats the point of having it lay around for months without anyone playing it!!
I dont find that dumb at all.

$40-$70!?!?! You guys are going a bit cheapp... but I suppose you are talking about selling in store. I vote selling it on eBay, you can get £80+ (about $150?). And no, selling it isn't dumb. That's what I did with the Wii, I wasn't playing it, so I sold it.

eBay would be much harder, going to a game store they give you a good flat price. First of all it matters how good the DS is in condition. Here's the chart:

Terrible: $20-$30
Bad: $30-$40
Average: $40-$50
Good:$50-$60
Excellent:$60-$80

IMO, it's not worth selling for a PS2 game.

eBay's not harder... might be different in the US to UK.. I always get loads for my stuff I sell on eBay... sold a PS2 with loads of games on eBay not even a year ago for about £200... I <3 eBay

150$ thats way too high. Right now I can buy a DS fat with an R4 2gb for 150.
