jesus christ just skimmed the thread and it tilted the [censored] out of me.

the policy was not made with your particular situation in mind. they buy games back for that amount because that's the amount that they have determined to be the most profitable. obv its probs off a bit, but it should be pretty close. they dont determine prices on a situation by situation basis just like you dont negotiate the price for coffee when you go into a cafe. coffee costs $2 regardless of whether you will pay more for it, and they buy games back at $20 regardless of whether you'll sell yours for less or refuse to sell it unless they offer you more. the guy you talked to works at the store. he didnt make this policy, he doesnt have the ability to change it, and he probably doesnt really give a [censored] either. big companies have blanket policies in place because its easier / more profitable than evaluating individual events. i cant believe i wrote this out.
