You can sell this stuff, it just takes time & patience to get the right people willing to pay for it. Just look on ebay at the completed auctions. I have sold stuff to the guys around town. One dude give me $20 for a big Black Ops 2 poster, not to mention the $20 I made from the gamecube gameboy player disc I found, & the $250 I got for the Keldeo distribution cart I found, all in the dumpsters. So forget the naysayers, & KEEP DIVING MY FRIENDS!!!!
i hate you for finding that keldeo cart....you always find the best stuff out of all of us regular swimmers
You know, instead of diving into dumpsters, you could just ask when they're throwing away their display materials. I've had good luck with this. No need to be fetching stuff out of the trash when they could just give it to you directly.
(Also they throw things out on Sundays, specifically every third Sunday)

Where the hell's the fun in that?
They give the stuff to you in a box, clean and pristine, they won't try to flip you off, and you don't have to risk getting a handful of some teenage clerk's old nachos.

This bit of info proved beneficial for me this past sunday. I found 2 boxes of posters and such. All of the Wii-U Acc display boxes, about 10 of the Paper Mario sticker sheets, Star Wars 2 PSP CIB, etc. It was def a good find.

Is this legal in Australia? May hunt in EB Games dumpster.
From what I know, it is. Unfortunately all the stores in my area are in shopping centres and their dumpsters are behind those locked gates that you can't get past.
How hard is it for your guys to get rid of these things? Haha it's just that it seems that what you guys get is mostly posters, and I doubt you keep them all.
I sell alot of the posters quickly, especially the stuff like Halo 4 & Black Ops 2. Kids love that stuff. The really good stuff such as gameboy player discs, pokemon distribution cartridges, & unopened players guides I put on ebay & make some nice coin. Here is an example. Enjoy.
Found a promo box for Pokemon White 2, Gears of War Judgement, and GTA V tonight along with a HUGE poster for Bioshock Infinite tonight. Was hoping for the Paper Mario display but was quite satisfied with what I got
i thought about this but then i went inside and talked to my local gamestop manager and he said no one takes anything home and they just throw it all away so he told me when they switch stuff out and said just let him know what i want and i can come pick it up
