News \ Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars Bargain Wrap-Up

Going to trade in two games at JB Hi-Fi for GTA: Chinatown Wars.
What a bargain!

lol I'll just run over to EB, grab two cheap preowned games, run back over to JB, trade em in and BAM! I've made like a $20 profit and I've got my game.

Btw, great bargain hunting skills ICC.

Not really 70 is the RRP, it can't be any more expensive than that



RRP = Recommended Retail Price.



Exactly if you're charging more than that you're doomed to fail
