Xbox games

Options
I have about 15 xbox games (not xbox 360, original xbox) and I could sell them at CEX for around £15, but that's hardly a life changing sum, lol!

So I thought maybe I could donate them. I'd rather not donate to a charity shop, instead I'd like to go where they'll actually be used and enjoyed.

Any ideas? I've had a look around and can't find anywhere...

    How about selling vie eBay for charity? There is some information on their help pages...

    At least those buying your items should be enjoying them then. :-)

    Ebay for charity's not the best idea. There's a minimum donation amount of £1, and after ebay / paypal fees etc, you'd need to sell for about £2.50 not to end up out of pocket.

    You'd be better off just selling the games normally, then donate the money you get for them as a cheque :)

    Check with the local hospital - our children's ward have an xbox but only have a couple of games - the kids would be delighted to have new ones to play!
