I've created a site where you can setup trades for your second hand games.
Its free to use and allows you to specify what game you have for trade/sale and how much you would like or what game you would like to trade it for.

Note: this site just facilitates a trade setup, you still organise with the other person where you will meet or whether to post or do bank transfers, etc etc.

About every console community got a market palce forum but I though a central place would work better as people sometimes wanna trade across platforms and then needa make dupe posts on all the different community forums.

I've only put it online on Monday so there's not many offers yet and you might find a bug here and there. Let me know what you guys think of the site. Btw. you'll have to register to see all the features, but its a quick registartion. If the site pulls enough traffic I'll move it to proper hosting, don't wanna pay for something that is not used much. (currently using free godaddy hosting)

www.gamersxt.com

Some features...
Create/setup trades
Keep a "collections" list where you can see what you have, want and had
See stats on games (metacritic scores and user scores)
Review/comments on games
Rate otehr users and comment on them - usefull to see if a person a good to trade with.
Search for certain game offers
still todo: list top rated games, and users
 
This is indeed a good idea. I tried something like this on teh forums ... worked great for a while but has died down.

Some suggestions:
People like to trade face to face. Maybe set up location based trading. Like if I am in Centurion and would like to know if others in Centurion has something to offer.

Or a 'sort' function by location.

Some people have offered me 'OEM' versions of games (if you know what I mean) ;)
 
sdd, good idea about listing only offers from your area or town. I will put it on the list of todo put not high priority since there are not much listed yet so its stil leasy to go through the list to see who is in your area.

gdiza, what do you mean? Anyone can register for free and use the site's full features.
