On Amazon you could buy the same games for similar prices but CeX happens to have lower if you can visit one of their stores, which honestly is better than ordering online (unless it's the only method to obtain that one item).
There are loads and loads of very reasonable priced games (albeit they might be missing the manual or the cover might not be in the best condition which is why it's better to check in store). I've recently got into buying PS2 games because they're so cheap and worth it.
problem is for cex to sell a ps2 game at say £1 they will buy it from the previous owner for ridiculous price like 20p. so is some on comes in with say 10 games they would only get £2. So the person will just walk out with his games most of the time. hence cex have far less ps2 games in stock on the shelves :disappointed:

Cex are the biggest rip off merchants by far, when it comes to buying your games. You can go in store & come out feeling like you just got mugged. They buy for pitiful amounts & sell for extortionate prices in comparison. For example, & this is for timesplitters 3, they buy for cash £2, buy for voucher £4 & sell for £22. Seriously??? Who in their right mind would consider that transaction? I remember when they were new in my area, you got £5 less than they sold it for back then, at least it was fair, now? no way I sell to them!!

Ordered another batch:
Killer 7 (PS2)
Vexx (Xbox)
Gran Turismo 4 Prologue (PS2)
Intellivision Lives (PS2)
The Italian Job - L.A Heist (Xbox)
Tenchu: Return From Darkness (Xbox)
Prince of Persia - The Two Thrones (Xbox)
Just hope they all come with their respective manuals and in good condition. Especially Killer 7 (can't be hassled to pay £20+ for the GameCube version).

Think I've seen the 60GB PS3 going for £50-60 on CeX and I'd say that's a steal, even moreso if it has the OFW 3.50+ to allow "bonus" features. I bought a 60GB PS3 around 2013-14 via Gumtree for £80 with Battlefield 3 (never bothered playing due to the trigger being the shoulder button than the analogue trigger), one official DS3 controller, TV/Power cables and the console itself. The guy who sold it to me replaced the original thermal with a much higher quality one (he showed me the inside of the PS3) and to this day I've never had an issue with it.. other than the thing being a ****' heavy beast! :stuck_out_tongue:

I want to give this deal heat, however my recent experience with CEX online would have me turned off this deal. I ordered £50 worth of tat from them. About £20 worth of it arrived, what arrived is not what I ordered... Now I am the mercy of their returns process - seriously, how can I return something that didn't arrive? It's even listed on the invoice I ordered 2 items, the invoice lists 1 item. I have to return the defective item and the item that wasn't shipped to obtain a refund? WTF? Also I put a deal up here earlier for a wireless Xbox controller @ £15, bought in store so no issues there. Of course a week later they are now down to £12, rather than visit the store I added them into my list of purchases, they didn't arrive.... Not happy, don't know where to go from here - or why I felt the need to post this (Sharing a tale of caution I suppose)...

Some weeks ago I ordered Star Fox Assault and I received instead Black Ops so as I was pretty upset with that, I went down to the nearest CeX, showed them the game I got + receipt then I got my refund. Maybe it's a good thing that happened because I decided to spend that on 11 other games instead of just one.

GT4 was the pinnacle of the series. I absolutely hammered it. I couldn't get enough of the amazing Formula GT cars.
Shame the series took another 6 years to get a proper sequel and then it was like a gameplay relic by the time it even launched, rivals had raised the bar so much.

My experience is that its hit or miss, so what I do is order 2 of everything online and then pick the best version and take the other back to a store for a refund. I also buy replacement cases from ebay.

That's a tough one. CeX has Mario Golf: Toadstool Tour for £10, Resi4 for £10 too (both of these games can be bought for said prices anywhere else though), Killer7 for £20 and Star Fox Assault for £40. Well, whenever they're in stock at least (Killer7's GameCube version is much better than PS2's).
As someone who likes games in their complete form it bugs me that sometimes they're missing the manual and the reason why I have to visit X store to see if they have it.
Btw, Desperados for 10p is an awesome deal when it's in stock that is.

I usually go on the cex website and set myself a limit of say £20 then try and buy as much stuff as possible, PCs games, ps2 games/accessories. Normally I end up with 100+ items. Good prices on the games, if your a pc gamer you can literally have hundreds of hours of entertainment for a few ££. I'm tempted to pick some of these games up but I've gotta resist
Spasho
13 Jun 16#13
Yup. That's what I kinda love about CeX Online is that £2.50 is the price for the entire batch but it annoys me when a game arrives without manual or what have you.
It's a shame that the Mega Man Legacy Collection was never released in Europe. :disappointed:
They also have some really good deals for Original Xbox games too. GameCube too but not too many and their prices are almost identical to the ones on the eBay/Amazon (they do sell Killer 7 for £20 whereas anywhere else it could go for £30-40+).
Oh yeah, they also have PS1/Dreamcast games in stores but that's rather store-specific.
Per order, regardless of number of items ordered. Items may be delivered/arrive separately, pretty much depends on whether your item comes from their warehouse (the bulk of items) or one of the stores (when a store has an item that the warehouse doesn't.)
