Never have a bad experience buying from cex. The only reason I don't give 5 stars is excessive postage costs. Even more when multiple items are shipped from the same store and they don't combine posta... See more

Substandard service from Cex!!!
Imagine placing an online order for items that are in stock in multiple stores and only recieving part of that order.
And when queried why I didn't receive my full order I was told there was a system failure while processing my order
But if I'd like to reorder and pay additional postage Cex would only be to delighted to send me the rest of my order.
The great thing about been a customer is I get to choose where I shop and if a business can't be bothered to fulfill orders or rectify situations where they have provided substandard service then I'll choose to take my business elsewhere to a company that is capable of running an online store and not have to deal with bunch of muppets

Hi Dara,
Thank you for reviewing us.
I am sorry to know about the item cancelled in your order and I fully understand your disappointment.
Our stores make every effort to fulfil customer orders and we have guidelines in place to check the product specifications while processing them. However, at times, the stores notice that the item is incorrect or unfit for sale, thus, to avoid the inconvenience of returning the item to us, such items are cancelled.
With the way our system works, we try to assign this item to another store; however, this is not possible every time.
As you had contacted us via email, I will be replying to it to assist you further. Feel free to write back on the same thread for more help.
Regards,
Ramson.
Very fast 💯 recommended 👌👍👍👍

After a week delay 2nd try was ok...
As usual the first delivery was for an unchecked product that was far below expectations, (covered in greasy fingerprints and a cracked screen)
The best thing I can say is that returning the faulty item was free - even if it added a week of extra delays, due to the shoddy and despicable service of cex.
At least this time, the second attempt seemed to be ok, but I have yet to check the quality of the item I received (battery health etc, but at least that is covered by warranty, unlike the cracked screen I was originally sent)

Hi DP,
Thank you for your review.
I am sorry to hear about the condition of the first item you received. A cracked screen and visible marks are not acceptable, and I understand the disappointment this has caused.
I have shared your feedback with the store management so this can be reviewed and addressed with the team. We take product checks seriously, and this should have been picked up before dispatch.
I can see that a replacement has been arranged, and I hope this unit meets your expectations. I have now taken over your ongoing email thread and will continue to assist you directly. If you notice any issues with the replacement, including battery health or overall performance, please let me know and I will help resolve it promptly.
Thank you for your patience while this was being sorted.
Regards,
Nikita.
Great service and fair evaluation
I love how when they explain an item in good condition, it is. Also fairly priced items for the market.

Sent wrong Phone
Sent the wrong phone. Same brand but very much the wrong phone. Thankfully recorded the whole packaging opening as would be very easy to claim I switched phones without it.
Brought back to local store in Cavan, they were extremely helpful and processed the refund a d were really apologetic. They were fantastic

They threw away my property during a price evaluation
I took an Apple Watch in its complete, original Apple packaging to the CeX in The Square, Tallaght, for a price evaluation on April 12th.
When I returned to collect the item April 18th, having declined their offer, the staff could not find the full packaging. After checking CCTV, they admitted an employee had simply thrown the outer box in the bin.
This is a complete disregard for customer property. As any tech enthusiast knows, original packaging is vital for the resale value of Apple products. By destroying the "Full Set" integrity of my item, they have actively devalued it.
It is disgraceful that a company built on buying and selling used goods has so little respect for the condition of the items entrusted to them. I will never do business with this branch or the brand again.

Hi Adilson,
Thank you for your review and it is unfortunate that your trade-in experience didn't go as planned.
All items are tested by us and the final price offered will depend on the grade under which they are purchased. In case our customers are unhappy with the offered price, they are welcome to highlight it to our staff and we can arrange to set the item aside in its current condition, along with any packaging materials.
To assist you further, I have sent an email to your registered email ID. Please check your spam/junk folders in case you are unable to locate it in your inbox.
Regards,
Ashwin

Hi Eimear,
Thank you for your review. I am sorry to hear about the issue with the console you received.
For items graded as B or C, minor screen pixels can be present as long as they do not affect the overall functionality of the device. That said, the condition should still meet our grading standards, and I understand your concern based on what was advised in store.
I am glad to know that the return process was smooth and resolved quickly for you. Your feedback has been noted and will be shared with the relevant team to help improve our checks.
If you are planning to purchase another Nintendo 3DS, feel free to reach out http://bit.ly/2WDil7r with the details and we will do our best to assist you further.
Regards,
Nikita.

100%
Bang on, 100%. Was a bit worried when only two of 3 items arrived.
But I was assured everything was OK, as items ship from different locations. Sure enough it arrived two days later. Will be back.
