so you make a penny and but the time it arrives from amazon and you go to cex, its changed price ?
even if its sold to them online at fixed price... its a penny ?

bad example to use but not a new one either

this has been posted before
Ive bought mw3 for £25 and sold it for £44.. a much better deal

Of course, this only works if the P&P is free.

assuming CEX has the cash and does not offer you a voucher (happens later in the day )

I have previously bought COD MW2 at Sainsbury's for £25 and then resold for £35.

I bought 10 copies of Just Dance at Argos for £12 each and then resold them for £18 each.

I recently bought COD MW3 for £18 and sold for £30.

I had things to buy at CEX so occasionally have taken the voucher for a bit more.

Where the hell do you find these games at such a low price?

I'd never thought to do this before. Great ideas!

Do you think you could actually make any cash out of this though on a regular basis? I've just done some searches on hotukdeals, and what seems like a really hot offer on there, like a dvd for a quid, cex will only offer you 20p.

You're right. It's not a regular thing and CEX aren't the only people to sell to. Amazon do trades etc.

I'd never thought about it before seeing this but now ill just take 5 mins in work to check the hotukdeals page quickly and compare against elsewhere.

If you find something you can make 4 quid on buy 10/20 of them Especially when you get mis-priced items
