What will make this even better is if they use the headsets for voice recognition instead of having to type anything.

Amazon vs. Toys R Us vs. GameStop: Which is the best trade-in service?

1. Can you keep the games you get from points that you get from trading in your own games.
Not sure I follow this question, but any games you get from spending points are yours to keep. (And you can trade them right back when you're done)

2. Do you have to pay for the shipping of your games that you trade to other members? Even if there from different countries?
You can setup your account to do just US or also Canada and some Caribbean islands. I just do US. But mailing to US is like 2 bucks, Canada isnt much more.

3. How long do you usually have to wait to get/trade a game?
The key is to get on the waiting list the day a game comes out. I got GTAIV about a week after it came out. And from there it took 2 days to be shipped. The only bad thing is it's not instant gratification, but if you plan ahead (get on a list for a game you know you want) it works pretty well.

One other thing is when you send someone a game you don't get credit for the points until they mark it 'received' in the system. However, after you trade a few games (3 i think) you'll get those points instantly so you don't have to wait for the other person to receive them, that speeds things up a LOT.

Try goozex. You don't get direct cash for your games, but you get fair value. You basically trade away games to get points, then spend those points on new games. Sure you have some waiting lists, but I just recently traded away Fable 2 to get Fallout3 and it only cost me 3 bucks ($2 to mail the game and another $1 transaction fee). So I basically got $57 for Fable 2.
