It's kinda difficult for me to get away with this with the same staff being there and being the tallest Chinese person in Yorkshire :D

one in leeds seem to have stopped taking in footy games, they told me that the manager of cex went in with a stock of old crap stock to try and trade in, they politely refused as they had left their cex name badge on :lol:

yesterday i managed to buy truth or lies and your in the movies and beijing 2008 for a quid each in the charity shops and bagged myself another 13 quid.

still cant believe they gave me £15.40 trade in on the band hero solus game, only paid 98p for it from them and they only sell it for a fiver. Chap said its like they are actively wanting to go back into administration.

i've had nearly £250 off them now, made a good profit too :D

Thought id give it a go i traded Bionic Commander and 2 Fifa games for £9 credit i would have got 12 but the guy took £3 to clean the disks can't moan though the 3 games cost me like £2 max lol... :lol:

Personaly id say get the 360 i only recently bought the slim or i would have snapped up a Starwars xbox :( The xbox may also become a nice collectors piece and will most likely rise in price over time.

Be careful y'all, they're being picky today....

Went to CEX and stocked up on £2.00 games. Offloaded them all bar two. they were FIFA 08s. The assistant gave me a script about not accepting sports games older than 2010.

I can't complain, as they've accepted my other 100+ games.

There's a fine art to this. Don't get lumbered with a pile o turd :D

half a grand! :D

(and I've picked up a few games as and when I spot a decent title when I'm knocking the games in)
