If you want to get a bit more cash or trade in value for your console games, heres what to do,
go to the CEX website, click on the top right hand corner "sell" then look up the items you want to trade or sell. Add them to your basket. Once you have listed all your stuff go to "View Basket" then print of your basket list.
Take this along with your Games & Console, or Ipod to Gamestation and ask them to price match. They should do this and give you an extra £1 per item to what CEX would give you.
They used to do this for you, but CEX have banned all Gamestation IP addresses, so the customer has to do it for them.
And hey if you do it for store credit, jus tthink you can get a better price on the games you want to buy as they are not as expensive as CEX,
so quids in all the way
Does getting prices off the cex website and taking them to Gamestation actually work? I want to get rid of a load of games that are gathering dust not being played. I want to get a wii and since a most places have the console around the £175-180 mark I might as well get money off and trade in some old games too.
I offered the following 6 games on PS2 on our work internal selling for £3 each or £15 for all and someone is interested in them
Cricket 2004
Hitman 2
The Getaway
Formula One 2003
European Tennis Pro
Trivial Pursuit Unhinged
I was looking whether I'd get more trade in and have got these prices from CEX.
Cricket 2004 £0.40 £0.80
European Tennis Pro £0.90 £1.60
Formula One 2003 (Sony) £0.90 £1.60
Getaway, The (18) £0.60 £1.00
Hitman 2 £0.70 £1.30
Trivial Pursuit: Unhinged £1.00 £1.90
Would Gamestation price match the Trade in price rather than cash price and add £1 each?
What about Game and Blockbuster?
Thanks
