  TBH you will probably do better selling them on eBay or the like.. they are still quite newish games and EB will screw you on trade in price

  You should sell them in Facebook market or ebay. You can get much more than trade in

  CeX (WeBuy) I find gives decent money for certain things, for example they give $43 cash I think it was for pokemon let's go atm, probably only get around $50 max selling it privately which isn't worth the hassle to me

    CEX used to be good, but now their prices are mostly the same or less than EB.

    gives decent money for certain things.

    Still true, but it will only be the very latest and most popular game out that they buy/trade for a decent price.
    For most games, CEX tend to sell for about $20 buy for about $4, trade for about $7.
    CEX were really great for the first year they entered the market. Now that they have market share, things have drastically gone downhill regarding trade prices.

    It is good, that you can easily check CEX buy/sell/tradein prices online at any time on their website webuy.com

    EB prices you can usually get over the phone (but some staff will say no).
    I think JB always refuses pricing over phone or even in store (if you don't have the game there with you when you ask).

    Depending on game, either of the 3 will be better. If its the very latest and most popular game out which hardly anyone is selling/trading… that's the only time CEX is good these days. Otherwise they are the about the same as EB or JB hifi

  Gumtree/eBay/FB - Retail games places are a rip

  you generally get more selling private but since you got newish games, you can go to JB and trade those 2 for 1 new game

  EB's prices aren't bad. Spiderman is $36, God Of War is $24.
  They often do an extra 50% if you trade towards a preorder, so it would be $90 for both.

    Yes, EB can be good with the bonus percentage on trade in at certain times when they have a promo running.
