    How to trade if in Vic?

      (1) Go to store and use your phone to film yourself standing outside demanding that they open so you can trade your console whilst babbling in pseudo-legal-ese about your "rights" (that may or may not have ever actually existed at any point in time) being violated.

      (2) Punch yourself in the groin for being a ****

    I sold my first gen ps4 On market place for $300 You could get more selling it private, easy considering they're very hard to get atm

    • wtfnodeal on 14/08/2020 - 10:01

        Stock is hard to get, look at the prices of New PS4 bundles all around $400-450. I sold mine PS4 for $300 cash and once I finish The Last of Us 2 I'll sell my Pro around $500

          I've never had any issues selling used PS4s for very close to their RRP, even when there aren't shortages.

          I have absolutely no idea why people pay it (and often worried it was a trick and they were going to steal it at the pick up) but they always have.

          I can only assume they are too lazy to do any research and didn't know what they're meant to cost.

        • hiimfinly on 15/08/2020 - 10:51

          I beat it three times but they just dropped Grounded mode… tempted. You should check out Ghosts of Tsushima if that sort of thing is your jam though, it's hyped but it is enjoyable.

        Are those in ADDITION to the stated "up to" trade-in values in the OP? Or do you need the level 4 20% bonus to bring it up to that level?

        I.e. if I'm level 4 and I bring in my PS4 Pro 1Tb, will I get $350, or $350 + the extra 20% on top ($420)?

          +1

          Damn, that's a pretty good trade in value. So tempted to trade in my X1X and PS4 Pro but on the other hand, I doubt I'll buy into next gen given everything good ends up on PC nowadays anyway! Maybe a PS5 Pro for Gran Turismo and back compat… hmm.

            @jace88: I really don't see there being a pro version this coming generation unless they're trying to hit 8k gaming. The reason why the Pro / X versions exists is because of the weak GPU's in the OG PS4 & Xbone. Slims are most likely a given considering that they're both behemoths in size.

              +1

              @[Deactivated]: I think the key thing is whether or not I should trade in my PS4 Pro. My main objective is to keep access to the games I have bought both digitally and physically… as well as the controllers.

              • [Deactivated] on 15/08/2020 - 00:01

                @jace88: I feel your pain. The anticipation for some solid news on the prices and the release dates are at an all time high for me. Ultimately, I think I'll get rid on my PS4 Pro ASAP to get geared up for that Cyberpunk goodness. Good luck to you, sir, hopefully everything works out!

                  @[Deactivated]: How are you planning to backup your save games etc until you get PS5? Cloud I’m guessing?

      • Smigit on 14/08/2020 - 10:49

        Sure makes it tempting….but I have a One S with Kinect and while it doesn't get much use, I'll get close to nothing for the Kinect and it might be a nice thing to own down the line in few years. Will possibly hang onto it for that reason, and it's nice to have the extra UHD player in the house.

        • iamhurtin on 14/08/2020 - 11:42

          How much does a uhd blu ray player cost in itself?

          Plus the kincect is part of gaming history, if you're not likely to move around much, I'd keep it in a cupboard.

          • Smigit on 14/08/2020 - 13:14

            @iamhurtin: Dunno but I’m guessing over $100, so at $240 I might hang onto the console.

            When XCloud eventually comes to Australia it’ll still be a great game streaming box hopefully for new titles, and it’ll obviously work with the back catalog.

            Great deal but, especially in time for the new models.

  • Feitality on 14/08/2020 - 06:52

      Console trades must be "complete" meaning you give them the console along with a controller, power cord and hdmi cable.

      • SupeNintendoChalmers on 14/08/2020 - 08:37
        +15

        If you include a Monster HDMI cable, they'll give you an extra $100

          Man EB trades are a rip off. Monster cables are worth at least $270 used.

      • hodgeyhodgey on 14/08/2020 - 11:04

              I traded in a launch Xbox One without the Day One Edition controller.

              I traded in the Xbox One Elite Console with just a regular controller (got less for the trade, obviously).

                @iBuzz7S: Thanks so much. I think I'll do the trade in then and hold out for PS5! :D

                (I wonder what other factors might reduce trade in value so I don't get surprised.. hmm)

    • netsurfer on 14/08/2020 - 09:21

        Keep the 360. I've still got mine + 50+ games most of which also work on my Xbox One S. After a while it will be the only non-online console left. I have it wired into my Xbox One S through HDMI input. Looking to upgrade my One S actually.

        • iamhurtin on 14/08/2020 - 10:25

          How does yours sound?

          I got mine out of storage the other day to play the arkham games and I'm not sure if it's the power supply fan or or what, but it hums like crazy!

          Made me realise "oh, you've effectively pulled and old computer out of the cupboard, of course this could happen compared to my psx"

          • bigbadboogieman on 14/08/2020 - 12:21

            @iamhurtin: Well its not loud but it isn't quiet like the Xbox One S especially when there is a disc inside…try running a game without a disc (even if its a demo) and see. I've got the smaller black one (Xbox 360 S) with an upgraded 500GB internal purchased separately. The Xbox 360 E model (subsequent) from S model, what I hear, had cheaper - lower quality parts.

            I had the big one Xbox 360 Elite first generation which I sold looong ago… Those ones were loud as a tank. If you've got one of those then EB won't take them and it probably won't sell on Gumtree. EB used to take Xbox 360 E and Xbox 360 S models but don't offer much value for it. It may be better to sell on Gumtree. I decided to keep mine as I have alot of games that only work with a 360 and I am not upgrading to Series X anytime soon (going to be too expensive).

            • iamhurtin on 14/08/2020 - 12:27

                @iamhurtin: Believe it or not, up till last year an Xbox 360 S or E with 1 controller and a couple of avg to below avg game discs (fairly non-A rated) would sell for between $100 to $130 on Gumtree.

                • iamhurtin on 14/08/2020 - 12:39

                  I wouldn't sell them for anything

            @myfeetarehappy: well for starters I don't have an empty HDMI port on the back of my TV… I've only got 3 ports, used by Chromecast, Xbox One S and Laptop/Computer. Connecting the Xbox 360 to my One S means I don't have to keep switching cables. Disadvantage is that I have to keep both consoles on when I want to use 360.

                @iamhurtin: It probably does but the TV isn't exactly Grade A for me to tell… :) the primary reason was the limited number of HDMI ports.

          I packed everything in a suitably sized box with a bunch of bubble wrap and dropped it off at the post office, got my money transferred to my bank account a week later.

          I did used to live in Sydney though, so I've been to one of their physical stores a few times (that's how I knew about them).

            @Haydos90: How much did they pay if you don’t mind me asking? And was yours a phat?

              @ccrap: I got $115 for a 160gb slim, an additional controller, a bluetooth remote and 7 games. Payment was direct bank transfer but there's also the option of paypal.

              They have prices for everything on their website, I was a bit nervous that they'd come back with something like 'the condition wasn't as expected so we're paying you less' (condition was perfect on everything) but I got exactly as much as the initial online quote said :)

              Probably could have gotten a bit more selling privately but that means dealing with people :P

            @Haydos90: Ah thanks. Sounds like a good service.

            What are they like to buy from?

              @sween64: No idea what they're like to buy from online, I only ever bought stuff from them in store.

              Had no issues with the GPU I got from them though if that helps

          You sell to them, they email you a post paid barcode, you drop it off at Post Office and they pay you out… CEX is probably the easiest trade in system. If they think the trade grade is lower than the expected, they offer you the lower price or they send it back free

    I guess low stock of new consoles is pushing up 2nd hand prices.

    $350 is pretty good for a Pro but I don't really want to part with my console until PS5 is here.
