It's a CEX thread, lads.
Post stories and experiences, deals and ripoffs.
Discuss this hive of fucking scum and tramps.

They CEX stores in Sweden?
>>320621003
They opened one in the town near me recently.
It already smells like piss and looks like it's not maintained.

Bristol
>>320623280
>>320623542
See, now I feel bad for complaining that Demon Souls is still like £10-15
Although it's still fairly justified seeing that I saw GTAV in there the other day for like £7
>>320625216
Used to be 20 7 is the best I've seen.
>>320621003
What kind of name is that? It looks like it's pronounced 'sex'
>wanna pick up some dvds at the cex store?
>>320621003
I bought a copy of GTA then swapped the disc with a broken one to get a voucher.
Am I a bad person?
>>320624943
I live near Bristol anon, wanna hang out and lend me all your games so I can steal them?
P.s. I'm a muslim so if you say no I'll have you arrested.
I bought COD:AW from there, step out of the shop, looked at the disc and it looked like someone had sanded the thing down.
I took it back in and was served by someone else, who gave me the dirties and questioned me to high hell about it. I got a new disc though.
Still quite cheap and good to trade in sometimes, get an okay price if you cba to sell on ebay that day
>>320621003
Ask a CEXAmericaemployee anything.
>>320627276
wats cookin gud lookin?
>>320625653
Their wifi is called "unprotected cex" that's literally the joke. Meant to stand for customer exchange. I guess they thought it was edgy like FCUK
>>320627276
What game are you playing right now?
>>320626131
>Muslim
>On the internet
Aren't computers like Jalal for you or something?
>Skate 3 still £17
Fuck cex.
>>320628030
Oatmeal
>>320628313
Xenoblade Chronicles X. Got it real low cheap from a guy that sells us stuff in bulk.
>>320628680
They base their prices on eBay. You're never getting a deal you couldn't have got online.
>>320628779
It's why I barely buy games there anymore, and if I do it's usually ps2.
bought a PS3 from their online store last week for £80, the control pad has the usual second hand grime on it but apart from that I can't complain about it
>See Zelda Wind Waker on Gamecube for £15
>Ocarina of Time included?!
>Buy it and walk out
>Check the discs condition just to be sure
>Zelda Ocarina of Time is in there though no Wind Waker
>Go back and ask for Wind Waker
Holy fuck, they did this to a friend who purchased the RE remake on gamecube only including Disc1. What the fuck is up with that?
>>320629057
They don't check properly and sometimes not at all. My friend sold his dragon age goty (sometime ago now) with only the dlc disk because he accidently left the full game in the Xbox. I've traded in an empty box before after I did the exact same things.
>>320621003
They refused to accept my sealed copy of Witcher 3 for trade in and accused me of stealing it. Never given the smeg of society a penny of my money since.
>walk into cex
>PES 2012 for 20 pence
>buy 5 copies
>push a few copies into m8's their mailboxes
fucking worth it
>>320621003
>Picked up Tropico 5 for 15 quid, with postcards and DLC included
>Same trip, Shadow of Mordor GOTY edition for 22, Christmas shorted
Not a bad deal at all, but who the fuck labels their signs 'Buy here' and 'Sell here' for their separate ques, surely 'Sell your items here' and 'Buy your items here' would have been betterYes I did wait 10 minutes in the wrong line, i thought 'Sell here' is where the shop sold you their good for fucks sake
>>320629471
OK, that makes sense. I started to think they were doing it deliberately
How does every CEX smell the same? It's not that they all smell of piss and cheap weed it's the same piss and cheap weed. Do they pipe it in like at Disney World?
>>320630352
My store gets a lot of homeless people trying to sell stuff. We spray air freshener as soon as they leave.
How do you pronounce CEX?
Keks? Sex?
>>320630810
It's pronounced CEX
>>320630810
I've always pronounced it as the letters C-E-X, though I'm not sure if I'm right
>>320621003
I honestly think they're great.
Sure, they might only sell used shit, but at least they aren't complete kikes like Gamestop.
Just yesterday I bought Dark Souls 2 for €8.
>>320630810
I go with "Current Exchange" if I don't want odd looks in public.
>>320631321
Agreed. Prices are excellent too for anything on last-gen. Also helps my CEX has some real qt's working there who actually know their shit.
Anyone here who works/frequents the wembley or harrow store?
how do you pronounce cex? i always thought it was like sex.
bought bloodbourne on ebay for £30 when it first came out, played for 20 minutes, couldn't take the constant drops below 30fps even when just in corridors etc, was like fuck this shite, got on my motorbike and rode into town through the rush hour (took me 10 minutes - suck it carfags) went to CEX, parked up outside, no lock.
Walked in, exchanged Bloodbourne for £28.
But instead had Smash Bros for the Wii-U in my hand, bought that and took my change from the amount left.
Rode back home on my bike, the summer winds flowing over me, a raging hard on because I was about to smash my gfs pussy.
>>320621003

>>320633763
>Buy DMC3
>Got DMC3 special edition
That's not all
>Buy Cold Winter on PS2
>Open case and instead got Cold Fear
If it wasn't for that, I would've never known about that cool horror game.
I picked up a PS4 for £150 at CEX, with only one broken USB port
DOn't fucking trash talk CEX. They blast out early days Oasis every day in my local so I respect them for that.
