This has probably been asked before, but I was hoping to hear what method people have had the most success with. My wife won't let me get any more games unless I make room on the bookshelf lol.

This is my go to approach to sell games:

  1. Ask with your friends and gaming groups
  2. Check with local stores, sometimes they have events that allow you to sell/trade your games.
  3. If those two fail, try your luck on Facebook marketplace.

As a rule of thumb I usually discount 30% from their retail price. Depending on the status of the game it may be cheaper or more expensive.

Also be open to trades, sometimes you can get a game that you wanted to try or that's easier to sell.

If you want to sell them ASAP bundle everything together and offer them at a big discount.
