It will help you out in the end. My overall review to the store is decent. It had good costumer service and I can guarantee that they are not just chancers. Just make sure you ask them for a preview or test of the device you are buying as most of them are likely second handed or used by someone else before.

When you have the Liffey Street and George's Street stores on offer, you don't need to bother with…read moreweak alternatives. With surly staff (the worst of the many Cex stores I've visited), insanely loud music playing in-store (thrash metal and F-bombs galore, just what you want to hear on a Saturday morning while kids shop with their parents), as well as having items on sale that are not fit for purchase, I cannot stress enough how negative of a shopping experience it is to visit this store. Comments to their customer service are without value, as Cex outsource all of their complaints to a call centre in India, and the people there are not directly connected with the antics of the store. That said, be sure not to lodge a complaint, as the store management in Westmoreland Street actually do take it out on your statutory rights. Stick with George's Street and Liffey Street, and steer clear of this disenfranchised franchise.

Having found a really funky activity-centre I went to the square and filled out my argos form but after queuing for a while I was told there was none in stock and none of the other Argos's had one either! This despite the online catalogue saying it was in stock. Bummer. So, not one to give up easily I headed across to Smyths. What a difference!!! Not only was I met straight away by an extremely smiley young woman who brought me straight over to the display model it was on sale in smyths for €30 less! Cool! As the afore-mentioned young woman went to the stock room had a look around at the mountains of toys. Kind of wish I was a kid again! To top it all off the lady when handing me my item gave me a voucher for a further €5 off! Now that's service! I will be returning, again and again. Argos be damned!

I give this review a 3 star because I do enjoy going there but no more because of the condition the consoles/controllers are sold in.

I'm not saying it has to be immaculately clean but the consoles I received has dust, hair, grime and stains all over the controller and console.

But as far as video game shops go, the Game Stop on Henry Street is la creme de la creme. Like the other Game Stops in the city, it offers some amazing sales. It has stacks and stacks of games for all consoles. It will give you money for your old video games or you can exchange them for a new or pre-owned game and pay the difference. Game Stop has the same scheme for DVDs which are located upstairs. You can exchanges your old movies for new ones and pay only two Euro. This deal beats any DVD rental place.

I have always trusted CeX as I've sold a number of phones over the years. I liked the way the were…read morevery thorough in ensuring it wasn't a stolen phone and always received a reasonable return in cash. This all changed yesterday, 7th September. I was looking for a simple Nokia replacement for my elderly father. For €45.00 I purchased a rather worn Nokia. However because it comes with a 2 year warranty I thought, well it must be a good phone. To my utter disbelief when I went to put the SIM card in I learnt those purchasing aren't getting value for money. I opened the back, it was absolutely filthy. They hadn't even bothered to clean the inside. Upon turning it on the phones memory hadn't been wiped either. Nobody bothered to set the factory reset button. I returned it immediately, I got my money back but I will not be going anywhere near CeX again. Honestly I thought you had a good reputation. I was able to buy a brand new Nokia 610 in a store a few hundred meters away. AVOID

Good store blighted by several issues, so without further ado, let's begin…read more The pricing here generally whips Gamestop's so-called bargains, which means that this store generally attracts a crowd. The best way is to get in early, and browse at your own leisure. Second-hand phone prices are insanely expensive, especially for anything with an Apple logo on it. Even someone with not a lot of money can find something here, as their game prices start at just 20 cent! That said, the issues are a problem: 1) Opening hours. Despite the fact that the staff members are often in the building 10-20 minutes ahead of time, they seem incapable of sticking to their 10am opening time. 2) New arrivals of stock are often not placed on sale until the following day, which renders the "check stock" function of their website pretty useless when you can't find what you're looking for. 3) Disorganized queue system. There could be as much as five people behind the counter, and only two of them will actually operate the registers. 4) Disorganized stock. Shelves can go for more than a week without being alphabetized or cleaned. Recently, a chocolate bar was left on one of the shelves, and two days later, it was still there. 5) Suspect buying practices. Three times now, I have been witness to staff members accepting shrink-wrapped products. True, the seller was asked to open the seal on these items prior to the purchase being made, but 18 copies of the same new release DVD, from the same seller, under these conditions?? 6) Price changes. This happens constantly, but the staff never seem to update the price tags, which confuses a lot of people. 7) No phone number on their website. Imagine this; you're travelling from Cork to Dublin and this store has something you're looking for. How can you reserve it when they don't provide a phone number? They have one, they just won't give it to most customers. So in closing, definitely visit here, but do it before noon because the stock will usually be in a jumbled-up state!
