Surely if you have an interview at Game and they want you to sell them a pen, you say its 2 quid, but they can buy scratch insurance for 50p. Upsell.

However dont ask about a trade in price as thats only 5p...

Pretty much. It got to the point where I'd get other people to take my console sales, because of the bking I'd get if I sold a console without insurance. They'd prefer you not to sell it at all, than sell it without insurance.

Not to mention the 'manager's special' bundles that were, inevitably, the sum total of the RRP of the constituent parts.
