This has meant for now a couple of minor changes and problems for existing users. If you wish to use the new service for pricing games and dvds, you will need to re-register with your email address for the selling sections of the site. We are looking to combine the two (old and new in due course) but we were keen to get the service up and running so that you could start selling your games and dvds to us.

Our new pricing system also requires you to add the barcodes on the back of the products when you search for them – we appreciate that this may take a little longer than typing in the name of the product and we are developing tools to allow you to search by title as well in due course.

In the meantime, we are now buying DVDs and Games and Blu-rays so grab those items, and start typing in those barcodes!

The weather is cold, far too cold – as a result, we are sure more time is being spent inside rather than outside, and more time is being spent playing those games that have been gathering dust next to your console.

We have been doing the same – during this process, we realized that there are plenty of games that are more recent that we would like to sell and when we looked on our database of games to sell, a fair few of these were missing on the database. So over the next couple of days, we will be taking a look at the database and making sure we are up to date and adding those titles on to the site.
At the same time, the decision has been made to stop buying in games on the older generation consoles such as the Nintendo Gamecube, Sony Playstation 2 and the Microsoft Xbox.

From later on this week, we will be buying games for the following consoles –

PS3 – Sell PS3 games for cash at tradeyourgames.co.uk

Xbox 360 – Sell Xbox 360 games for cash at tradeyourgames.co.uk

Wii – Sell Nintendo Wii games for cash at tradeyourgames.co.uk

DS – Sell Nintendo DS games for cash at tradeyourgames.co.uk

PSP – Sell Sony PSP games for cash at tradeyourgames.co.uk

More to follow and we will let you know when all the more recent titles are up to date and available to buy from us and also for you to trade-in.

In the meantime, keep warm and keep playing!

We turn those games into cash and you can then use this cash to buy other games as christmas gifts or alternatively take the cash and buy those gifts from elsewhere.

Check out the sell games section of our site to find out how it works and in the meantime, good luck with the christmas shopping!

But there are some games keeping us in the shade as we get to grips with LA Noire, Brink and of course Pro Evolution Soccer in the run up to the new football season.

However, with the summer holidays, we feel now may be the time for you to find out what games you have to sell, turn them into cash and use that cash to either buy more games to play when the weather inevitably goes british and rainy again, or indeed use that cash on your holidays abroad in the sun!

With us offering some of the most competitive trade-in prices for video games across all consoles, why not check out how much your games are worth. Sell games to tradeyourgames for cash this summer.

We want you to tell your friends about us and spread the word about tradeyourgames. In return, we will reward both you and your friends in cash if they decide to sell their games to us. Some questions we think you may have -

What do I get out of telling my friends?

If you use our scheme to tell your friends (which you can do through facebook, twitter, email or however you wish to do so) – we will pay you 5% of the total amount of order values that your friends send in to us. This is a thank you for introducing them to tradeyourgames. You will receive this 5% only when your friends have sent in the games to us and also only when they click on your unique referral link or your post on facebook/twitter that we help you create.

Your tradeyourgames account will be credited with the amount once we have received their orders and we will notify you by email when this has been done. You can choose to use this to buy items on the site or simply request payment to you by cheque or bank transfer. You can tell as many friends as you wish (facebook post with the link is a quick and easy way of telling them) and we will track all these transactions for you and make payment when they send in their games.

What do my friends get out of it?

Other than the fact that they get to find out about us, and we pay them cash for their games and consoles – we will offer them 5% extra cash on the amounts quoted on the site for their first order when they send in their games to us. Everyone is a winner.

You can pass on your referral link to as many friends as you wish. Please refrain from spamming them as they may decide they dont want to be your friends after that!

Sounds great, how do I sign up?!

Click here to take you to our refer a friend scheme sign up page.

You will be asked to provide your email address so we can track the order, and will then be provided with your referral links to give to your friends so that they get 5% extra when they use us and you get 5%. You will also be emailed your referral link (keep this safe for further recommendations to friends!) and also be given the chance to recommend to your friends with one click by facebook, twitter or an email. We will even help  you write the email but it might make sense to personalise the message.

Click here to check the refer a friend scheme out – and start spreading the word!

Thanks,

This site is designed for consumers and end users rather than trade sellers and therefore multiple copies of the same game will no longer be accepted.

Any orders where a customer decides to sell multiple copies and sends them in will be contacted by the customer service team and they will be asked for their return address for these additional items. The cost of postage is to be borne by the customer and this will be agreed before sending back (at the cost of £1.50 per game/blu-ray).

The terms and conditions have been updated and this is relevant for all transactions made after the 14th July 2011.

Any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

In the meantime, keep on gaming!

Duke is back..

After many years waiting for Duke Nukem Forever, its finally come out on the 10th June 2011! The last Duke Nukem game released was in 1996 and has clearly progressed this time from the graphics and gameplay that were available in the 1996 game.

You can trade-in your other games to purchase a used Duke Nukem Forever for  both the PS3 or Xbox 360 but you can also trade-in your copy of Duke Nukem Forever once you have completed it – the quicker you complete your video games, the more trade-in you receive for these games. Currently this weekend, you can get cash for your Duke Nukem Forever games of over £23 for both consoles.

How easy is it to get cash for your games?

All you have to do is grab all the games you have that you no longer play, go to the sell-trade-in section of our site, type in the name or even better the barcode at the back of the game and we will bring back a price that we would pay in cash for your games.

The only way to find out was to try and phone the local game store but they would only provide indicative trade-in quotes for a couple of games and insist on us coming instore to find out the quote.

Transparency is key in our opinion – that is why you can log into tradeyourgames.co.uk and by searching in our sell box – you will find out how much tradeyourgames pays in cash for your video games across all consoles. Simply search by title in the sell box or instead use our sellwizard which allows you type in the barcodes in bulk and find out how much we will pay in cash for your games.
