No completely true. The 7.99 games give £3 because they are also in the 4 for £20.

A general rule of thumb is 60% of lowest sale price. so 7.99/4for20 games £3, £12.99/2for£20 games £6

This doesn't seem to apply the same to retro titles and the bogof deal. I've traded in a few DC titles recently for £2 to £3 that are on the shelves at £4.99 BOGOF.
