WAL-MART VIDEO GAME TRADE-IN

These automated “Video Game Buy Back” kiosks are designed by e-Play, and they will accept a customer’s game by scanning the bar code on the game box. From there, the customer will receive a quote for buying back their game.
If the customer accepts the quote, he or she will insert the game discs into the machine. Now I am not certain if there is some sort of scanning process involved to make certain that the game isn’t damaged, but I believe the money for the games will be put back on a credit card in 2-3 days.
These kiosks are being tested in 77 Wal-Mart locations in several locations including Connecticut, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and New York. Is it possible that this could put Gamestop and Amazon out of business? Probably not, but it could mix in a little healthy competition.
