Great Cheap 'Games Console Package' Hunt

I bought a nintendo DS lite (pink) with nintendogs for £109.99 from Gamestation. However, I traded in my daughter's old console, couple of games etc and got the package for £74.
The moral is: keep all the old stuff; it gets you money off the new stuff!

Pardon my ignorance (I'm new to the forum) but what does OOS mean?

It means "Out of Stock"

All this talk of Gamestation, Amazon, et al, please remember to try your local independant retailer, if you have one of course.

Although sometimes not the cheapest they will have a wealth of knowledge and the good ones will only sell you what you need and not talk you into a 'bundle' with a load of cheap accessories that you don't really want.

Some of the multiples are tasked on selling a particular product, which may not be the games you particularly want.

Its not all about price you know, sometimes it pays to get a decent bit of customer service

I admit I am a bit biased because my husband just happens to run one but it is a valid point I feel nonetheless!

Does anyone know of any good deals on PS2 bundles? My son's PS2 is getting slow and noisy and I don't want to wait for the PS3 as it's likely to remain too expensive for too long, when it (eventually) is released.

My daughter is keen on a Nintendogs package (on normal DS not the light one). I know I should really buy them something more outdoorsy, but they haven't outgrown last year's mountain bikes or the previous year's trampoline yet!

The CeX Concept - Buy/Sell/Exchange
Our business model is based on buying and selling from the same source, our customers. To succeed in such a business and overcome stock shortages or stock surpluses, we aim to achieve two optimal positions on all our products:

1. An optimal selling price which is competitive by comparison to buying the same product new. A price at which the product will sell.
2. An optimal purchase price, which the consumers are willing to supply the product.

We constantly look at product demand and supply curves and change our prices using the experience and sophisticated tools we have developed over the last 15 years.
