Where's the best place to sell Gamecube/N64 games?

So I've got a gamecube + N64 + games that's been unused for ages and I may as well shift it on. It seems CEX buys the gamecube stuff but for peanuts. Is there anywhere better to go? Online or in Glasgow/Edinburgh preferably.
I'm assuming the value is sufficiently low that ebay will be pointless due to postage.

Carboot - you say CEX will buy the stuff for peanuts mostly because the vast majority of it is worth peanuts & they do have to make a profit too. Only other thing I can suggest is checking G-force a bash, I know they deal with some retro stuff, but much like CEX will not offer you much knowing they'll have to sell low to clear it.Retired member - fed up with the general tone of the place.0

plenty of facebook groups for that kinda thing and also retro games sites a good shout , failing that ebay
i am a retro games collector so would be interested"If I know I'm going crazy, I must not be insane"0 -
Make sure you haven't got a few gems they may be worth a few quid, check eBay prices first of all. - if you have a mint unopened copy of Twilight Princess for example...
If all you've got are FIFA or Harry Potter games then you may not get much for them of course.0 -
To maximise income on them, do eBay research, and sell on eBay individual items worth something and bundle the rest together (maybe in chunks of 3 games or so).
Or you might do just as well by bundling your gamecube with games, and N64 with games together. CEX, carboots, will all pay peanuts and its not worth your time.
Get them in the hands of collectors or wannabe collectors/traders.0 -
Thanks, I'll check ebay prices for the N64 stuff and maybe list them as suggested. I traded in the GC stuff yesterday.i am a retro games collector so would be interested
I don't think there's anything that special, just fairly standard N64 games but I'll type up a list and give you first dibs.0 -
I would either try dedicated forums, carboots or ebay first
then cex.0
