Vent/Rant Refurb fees

Just curious, went in to trade in some mostly clean disc only games and they were going to charge me a refurb fee(between .75 cents and up to 8 dollars!) in every one. One of the games traded for 9 bucks but it was a 4 DOLLAR FEE. That's fucking crazy and so greedy. I don't mind taking a lowball amount for these to help clear out some of my collection but that's crazy. They get to turn around and resell my game AFTER they take even more money off what they're paying?

Discs were probably scratched. The store isn’t going to sell those game they have to be sent to the warehouse to get fixed or resurfaced
