So I recently took my PS3 Slim, 320GB HD, with HDMI, Component cables, Controller, and USB charger to GameStop. They offered me $50.00 for everything. I have played my PS3 maybe 5 times, no scratches perfect condition. I checked GameStops website and they are selling the same exact model as mine it was even refurbished for $250.00? They are so cheap..

Trade-ins and returns are how they make most of their money.

Its a business, they know you are trying to get rid of it so they will always offer you a low price.
You would be better putting it up on eBay

I was at gamestop a few months ago and this person brought in a Nintendo DSi XL and it was brand new never opened(The person didn't want it) and gamestop gave them $15 for it when on the website it sells for about $120.

You should have sold your PS3 on Ebay or Craigslist you could have sold it for around $150-$200

They have to make a profit somehow, also with the ps4 announced ps3's are bound to be cheap.
