    Quoted from swampfire:

    Hate to say it, but we’re just going to have to accept taking a bigger hit when selling a new game. I’ve been spoiled by the rising market, and I sold my last 2 Sterns for what I had in them (I could have taken a small profit, but sold to friends instead for a quick and easy sale).
    What sucks is that as soon as I start “losing” money on games, my wife will stop supporting me buying them. I put “losing” in quotes because I feel like spending $200-500 for the privilege of owning a new game for a year or two is still a pretty good deal.

    Why would higher prices equate to taking a bigger hit at time of resale?
    It's still going to be supply and demand. If you unbox a game and someone else wants that title, they can either buy brand new or buy yours for less.
    An unboxing fee of whatever has been the norm previously isn't likely to change in my opinion.

    Quoted from Haymaker:

    I don't think anyone is happy about it, its just that some of us realize that a big portion of it is just it being an unavoidable evil.

    All the MMs and TZs that I've seen for sale lately are much much more than they were a few years ago too.
    Nobody has started a thread called "F You Resellers and Your Price Increases!".
    Nothing changes. If a game looks like it's worth the price, buy it. If it doesn't, then don't.
    After seeing the Deadflip stream Godzilla release I'm stoked to be in on an LE.
    Doesn't mean I'll pay the same amount for any future release if it doesn't look as good.
