Megatron:
Price charting also has a mobile app for android (not sure about IOS).  Really comes in handy when in the wild and unsure whether the seller is price gauging - which happens a lot in DC.

What I like best is that it's an updated average price.  Not sure how often it updates but it seems weekly.  Prices based on sell points on eBay and Amazon I believe

And game gavel\half.com too. I hate buying from half.com though, people normally ship media mail, and games can not be shipped then, so the post office may hold your package.

You lost me there.  Why would the post office hold your package?  (no, not that package, the package that was sent in the mail..... ;))

I WISH that was a service they offered.  They always get offended when I put my package on the scale.  Not MY fault I'm proud of it, you would be too.

Anyways media mail is for educational use only.  https://www.usps.com/ship/media-mail.htm

If the shipper sends something via media mail and they think it's video games, they open and check.  If they're right, you have to pay to upgrade it to first class mail. And if your name is "Videogames4Less", they're looking.  I think they may open most of them anyways, I've had a lot of them held for payment.
