Major retail store joins in the race of pre-owned games sales
If you're into buying pre-owned games, you may be interested in hearing about another alternative place to bargain hunt. Walmart, electronic goods retailer, will officially begin selling "gently" used video games. The store guarantees all pre-owned products will be cleaned and tested before they're stocked, and the games will work like new.
We've known for a while Walmart was planning to hop the used games bandwagon, especially when they started the whole buyback thing. Now that they're finally selling the used items as well, GameStop and Toys 'R' Us might have more to worry about.
Walmart says that they won't be accepting any trade-ins on used titles, but the used games they sell are guaranteed to play properly. Any pre-owned games purchased will fall under the same return policy of new products.

But onto the topic of the article, this should be interesting. I'm not so much interested in the fact that they'll now be selling used games, but rather what price they will sell them at. Whether they'll go the Gamestop route and sell them four just two or three dollars less than new, or if they'll drop a little bit more off the price tag for them.
FAIL.
Furthermore, Australia's major retailers such as MYER, DAVID JONES, KMART, BIGW, DICKSMITH ELECTRONIC, HARVEY NORMAN all should sell pre-owned games with reasonable price, I suppose.
