EB and Software etc. both do but it's not really worth it - you would be much better off selling on ebay.

Got to EB. I don't know what they pay for Dramcast stuff but I got $210 for my brother's old N64 and and a bunch of games I didn't want. Seriously, the stuff I gave them wasn't worth $50. I kept my N64 (which is in better condition), my best controllers, and all my best games like, Mario, Zelda, Goldeneye, etc.

When I did my trade in their offer was trade 15 games and an N64 for $100. My stuff was worth more than that though (amazingly enough) and they paid me what is was worth, $210. My friend actually just did the N64 trade in yesterday himself. His stuff was only worth about $65 but since he met the requirements they gave him the $100.

If you have 10 DC games that aren't worth anything it's a great deal. If you have some valuable DC games you might be able to make a killing -- just like me. I suggest you go down there and see how it all adds up.

If you have a Hollywood Video near you with a Game Crazy next door, you may want to give them a try. They probably won't give you a quote over the phone because they want to see what shape all of your items are in before they commit to a set amount. I have been doing all of my trading business with them for over four years now.
