Interesting business model using ebay prices as an indicator of price though.. I would recommend other sites that have been around a lot longer to sell video games, namely cex.co.uk, magpie.co.uk and tradeyourstuff.co.uk (the latter seems to pay a lot more for games than speedsell does, and provides the ability to buy the games in the same cart) This has been done plenty of times before – just went on here and if anyone is willing to sell a console for £4 (ps2 console) then they are probably just too lazy to sell on ebay where they would get at least 4 times that.
