Anyone heard of the playNtrade store?

A new video game store called playNtrade is opening up near where I live. Seems to be similar to a Gamestop or Gamecrazy where you can trade in your video games. It says they also let you "Try before you buy". Just curious if anyone is familar with this franchise? How are their trade in values compared to the others?

Thanks

One just opened right by me in Northern Virginia. Seems like better trade in value then Gamestop.

it's exactly like gamestop but with better trade in values. the store doesn't have as much stuff as gamestop has, but i like going there when a big game releases, b/c it isn't as busy as it would be at bb or cc.

We have two locations here, probably opened two years ago. I've never traded in there, but I did like their pricing on used titles better than Gamestop. They also carry older games for the Saturn/SNES/NES/TG-16/whatever anyone trades in still. Hopefully they'll manage to survive, it was nice not being hassled about anything the few times I went in there.
The store I really miss is Rhino.

I've seen a couple here in Irvine. I never shop at GameStop type stores and just buy stuff from big retailers like Best Buy though, so I didn't bother spending much time checking it out.

Nearest one is about 25 minutes away, but in an area I never visit or drive through.
