Could you go to a gamestop and trade the old ds for a new ds lite?

Question

I have the older model of the nintendo ds and i really want the ds lite so could i take my old ds to gamestop or a game place and trade it for the new ds? ( i got the old one for christas and i dont have the original box but i have the charger )

Answer 1

yes but they wouldnt give you a lot of money..they'd give you about $20 to $30 off the new DS...you would be better off selling it online..

Answer 2

noooooooooo

i have

Answer 3

Not straight across. They probably would still make you pay $20 or so.

Answer 4

yeah, u can trade anything ( game Wise)

Answer 5

if u payed more money u cant just switch the 2

Answer 6

nope

u wud have to "trade it in"

which means they will give u some amount of store credit

then u wud have to buy new DS

with difference of money

Answer 7

No.  They might give you $20 for an old DS, but the new ones are $100+.

Answer 8

if you buy a used game for $20, play and figure out you don't like it, then ask to trade it in for a game that's $40, of course that's not going to work for you.

Answer 9

no the ds lite is better srry:(

Answer 10

You can trade in your old ds and get store credit. The money you get will not be enough to buy a ds lite, so you will have to pay the rest. (I have traded in a few games to gamestop and have gotten a very little percent of the original cost, so don't hope for much money.)

Answer 11

Actually the Gamestop where I live had promo posters up about this...

"Trade in your old DS and get a new one for only $89.99!"

In other words, they'll give you store credit for your old DS, but you'll still have to pay quite a bit of cash to get a DS lite.

Answer 12

Yeah, you could. Find out what price you'll get for it though, it might not be worth it compared with giving the old one as a gift sometime – which might *seem* generous but only cost you a couple of dollars.

Answer 13

yes but you will have to pay some money to get the better one.

would you trade your 360 for a xbox for no money involved??

Answer 14

Nope

Answer 15

sure...don't expect to get more than like 30 or 40 bucks for it, GameStop are real moochers, they'll give you as little as 10 cents for a game so bring lots of cash

Answer 16

You gan get money off the new ds, but the trade in wont get you enough money to buy the whole thing
