“Finally got paid”

Looks like the company has new owners and they're finally paying people again. Just got my payment was waiting since March. Hopefully new owners will keep it on track.

“Gave up my entire childhood for $0.”

About a year ago I visited the website hoping to exchange my PS2 and its games for some extra cash. It looked credible, and all of my games were valued for at least $3 each according to the website. After finishing my submission, they sent me a box and a shipping label to mail everything to them. I packed over 100 games and the PlayStation into the box and had to pay for the shipping fee. After two months an no response I emailed them saying that I had not received any money. They replied with a list of every game I sent and valued everything I sent for $0. All games and the console were in working order, I checked before sending everything. I never received any money for what I gave them and I never got my stuff back, do NOT trust these con artists.

THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM! Like soooo many others I sent them my game disks, they received them and that's the last I've heard of them. They owe me $50 but I'm sure I'll never see it. I hope they feel real good about scamming a 73 year old person on social security.

I sent them my Wii U and like 12 games and they owed me a few hundred dollars... this was in October 2017. It is now March 2018 and they wont return my emails. No number to call. They straight out stole from and they will to you too! Don't do business with them!

I sent them my games in Nov 2017. Received email they received games but no check and they did not return my emails. I also did a complaint with the BBB and they did not contact the BBB either. Totally scam.

Back in September I sent in a few PS3 games, PSVita games, and one PS game. They sent me the shipping supplies and deducted $1 off my $51 check for shipping. They told me a few days later that the games were being processed and I should receive my check in one week. They didn't.

I sent a complaint to the BBB and they told me if cashforgamers did not respond in 14 days, they will take legal action (cashforgamers has one day left to respond).

Whatever you do don't send anything to cashforgamers, they will screw you over

Tip for consumers:
Don't end anything in, nothing!

Been using these guys for over a year now and can't say enough about them! Sent in my PS2 collection and feel I got the best price for my used games. Some of my items were sitting in the garage too long and extremely dirty but they took the games without complaint! Always takes a few weeks to get my check but its worth the wait. Good reliable site to make some extra cash.

NEVER EVER SEND YOUR ITEMS TO THESE CROOKS. YOU WILL NEVER GET PAID AND NEVER SEE YOUR ITEMS AGAIN. THEY IGNORE BBB REQUESTS AND IF YOU GOOGLE THEM, YOU WILL SEE WHAT A SCAM THEY ARE!

Sold my ipod classic for 50 dollars here. Happy i found somewhere to get rid of it after cleaning out my closet. I didn't have the cable so I couldn't test to see if would turn on, but they said it was working so that's great.

Sent in a ton of retro games that were in my garage (first nintendo, nintendo 64, etc.) and they paid me fairly well for them. They send me 3 boxes with labels to mail back my games and after 2 weeks of processing they sent my payment. Pretty easy way to get rid of clutter.

Tip for consumers:
This site isn't like that cell phone buyback websites. It takes longer to sort through a bunch of games than it does on cell phone. The shipping also takes longer since these are parcels (can take 5-10 business days). If you're looking to sell your video games for a good cash value, use them. If you need money asap, then maybe try a local pawnshop.
