      They were bought out by Frasers Group (owners of Game). All of the stores were either closed altogether or rebranded to Game if there was no Game store already in the area. I loved the Gamestation store in my town (Bridgend, S. Wales) but sadly they were within spitting distance of the Game store that had been there since the Electronics Boutique days.

    I am a person who has a slight issue with CEX.
    Well, with my local CEX.
    My local used to be very dodgy with trade ins. You could take in a fully boxed and never used limited edition console and tbey would offer you a category B trade in.
    They'd use the smallest excuse to downgrade your trade.
    Then if you took it, you'd find said console on display a day later at the fully boxed and mint price.
    Not the grade they bought it for.
    To me that's pretty scummy of them.
    If I traded I went to other stores further away to get a legit value.

      I know they invested incompetence at my local one after employees were taking boxes at face value and nor even inspecting the contents. A friend traded in a copy of a WWE game for a copy of Skyrim. When he got home he realised the game was still in his console and the employee had paid for an empty box. He took the game disk down later that day...but was horrified he wasn't challenged or had the quality of the disk inspected.

    My biggest issue with CEX is that the controllers they sell are often dirty and malfunctioning. I bought 3 DualShock 3 controllers and 2 DualShock 2 controllers from them and each one has some sort of ghosting issue, making misinputs, and each one was caked in dirt. My DS3 controllers all are unable to connect wirelessly and don't hold power unless I plug them in.
    They knowingly sell them in such a state. It's not right for them to ignore the maintenance and refurbishment of their stock, especially considering that they are a big company and can definitely afford to do so. You'd think the controllers being sold for upwards of £15 would be refurbished and cleaned to better justify the price. DualShock 3 controllers cost around £25 and should definitely be properly cared for.

    My issue with cex is how they muscled in and basically created the downfall of independent stores. My home town only has 1 indie store left due to the aggressive stance that cex took. I would rather put money in the pockets of people that contributed to local economies rather than the suit wearing wallet stuffers that own cex.

    @JJAkihabara94 Місяць тому

    I used to buy and trade in at my local CeX all the time until one employee kept accusing me of bringing in damaged games which had nothing wrong with them. I have to travel to another CeX a few miles away to actually trade in nowadays. I told this other store about this guy and even they told me they had people complaining about him too. Unfortunately I now actively avoid my local if that one employee is working there, which sucks as the other staff are not too bad. Even reported this guy to CeX and they chose to side with him even after telling them what the other store said. The CeX customer service is absolute garbage and literally anything you tell them, they will tell you you’re wrong they’re always right.
    Of all the gaming stores I’ve shopped at in the UK, CeX is by far the worst. If they did shut down I wouldn’t miss them at all as they have too much of a monopoly on the market nowadays and more than 80% of the time I go into them disappointed with over market pricing, reprinted covers and horribly damaged games.
    It’s that bad that I actually prefer eBay and Vinted. At least with them I know I get what I see in condition and I can return it with no major issues unlike CeX.

    CEX haa sort of picked up where Cash Converters left off in Belfast - used to be CC was the place I'd take games, DVDs etc. That said, the CEX has at some point in the past few years gone from two floors to one - that seems to be purely about the decline in DVDs (or not being able to justify charging much for most of them) as they now just have a small section for those on the ground floor. Wish me luck folks, I have a whole load of stuff to take to trade in one of these days...

If these Indy stores all had decent websites and online shop fronts that would make things so much better for those of us who would otherwise have to drive hundreds of miles just to visit their stores.
