Worth checking out Tesco and other places if you're looking to give these as gifts.
They can be had new for a few quid more (Or the same price once you factor in postage)
Just added all the reduced ones Alien is also cheaper at game £9.99 brand new but handy if you got some games to trade in or items to get rid of at cex!

Noticed earlier The Order 1886 has dropped from £18 to £15 as well.

Never had a problem with CEX, ever, but I use my brain and use the stores where games can be inspected and nearly all have looked unused and a friends staff discount helps....
There are plenty of people who use CEX without issues just as there are as many who use Tesco/Amazon with issues, it's swings and roundabouts, no company is perfect or ever will be.

Because the day your order doesn't turn up or you have an issue with it, you know Tesco/Amazon will refund you and take care of you promptly. That's gotta be worth a couple of pounds.

They do give better trade in prices than CEX. They beat them by a quid if you go in armed with the website loaded up on your phone. In fact last time I went in they whipped out an ipad and checked for themselves.

I get them to price match all the time. Getting them to price match the trades helped pay for my Pipboy. I have traded games for more than I bought them for, when you can get more trade than you can sell a second hand game for helps absorb some of the overcharge game add. Also trade in instore and buying online also helps.
One thing I want to know does anyone ever play CEX's stupid prices on newish games? I mean £48 for for Black Ops 3!

Battlefield for £12 is decent. As the premium upgrade can currently be had for £16 on PSN (down from £39.99) until tomorrow. So your effectively able to buy the full Premium Battlefield 4 currently for £28 which is an absolute bargain.

Not really any deals here unless u got vouchers most can be found new for similar prices.

Its hardly in stock in any Argos stores however (within 25 miles of me anyway) so postage has to applied on top for a delivery. Amazon is in stock agreed for £13.99 but again, postage on top in most cases as its under £20 (bringing it to £16. So CEX is still a decent deal.

I thought the same until I had to deal with the CEX customer service team. Rude, unhelpful, misleading, ignored several emails. Look deeper into reviews online and you'll see how bad they are. Wish I'd used anyone else even if it cost more.
saying that I truly hope you never have a bad experience with them. :sunglasses:

They also tend to charge more... but hey. And sell fake goods (yes I was stung by this - bought Adobe photoshop there and Adobe wouldn't activate it saying the code didn't exist - told CEX they weren't that concerned or bothered about it!).
A deal page for second hand goods? Do we need a cheap ebay prices thread too?
Only one thing they are good for and that's getting cash for some goods they give over the odds for. IE buy something from amazon for £15 and sell it to CEX for £20.

I used to buy second hand goods from CEX for previous gen consoles (Wii, XB360 and PS3) as the games were pretty cheap in comparison to them being brand new, and because I used to enjoy browsing through their shelves. But at some point I realised, and especially with current gen (Wii U, XBOne, PS4) that I was paying just as much for a second hand copy as what would have cost for a brand new version of the same game - and in most cases the brand new copy was cheaper.
That's the beauty of HotUK... If you keep your eyes open and check back regularly, you can often find brand new copies for less than what CEX charge for second hand. I honestly think that if you come to this site often enough, at some point, you realise that CEX doesn't even factor into your buying equation as an option.
Sure, if I decide to buy a game brand new, it MIGHT be slightly more expensive than what CEX charge, but at the same time I'll always know that it'll be brand new, the disks will be immaculate, and the package won't be missing any manuals or extra bits. I'll also be assured that I'll be supporting the industry and that my money will be going towards developers who'll be incentivised into making more games.
Nowadays, if I have to sell a game to CEX, I always insist on taking cash. I'd rather take the cash (and walk away) than be tied down into their ecosystem.

"If you have to sell a game to CEX" .... who is forcing you to??
End of the day they would not still be in business if they were not popular. They would not be in business if they openly traded in stolen goods. They would not be in business if their business model was so bad.
I and many others have never had an issue with them.
I agree their prices can be more expensive than other places, but it's swings and roundabouts.

They charge more because they're pretty generous with their tradein credit.
prankster101
2 Dec 15#80
I didn't post an opinion in order to engage into an argument. Also, popularity is no barometer for quality. In my opinion, the price differential between CEX's second hand prices and what the game can be obtained for brand new isn't worth the hassle in most instances.
Case in point: I bought CoD AW (PS4) for £9.99 brand new a few weeks ago. Via this very site...
