Located on Liverpool's Lord Street, this branch of CeX is a decent sized store, albeit on the first…read morefloor you enter the store on it is slightly small. It specialises in selling second-hand technology such as consoles, games and even phones, where it buys from the public and then sells on. From the outside the store looks nicer and modern modern than other CeX stores, ditching the standard red sign and simply writing Entertainment Exchange with the CeX logo on the side, makes it has a nicer, more modern and higher class feel which is a smart idea I hope to see at more stores as that is simply what CeX stand for, to the point where it is one of my favourite parts of the store where it ditches its usual branding which I find hideous to something cooler. Going into the store the modern vibe seems to disappear, it is located up a large step and there are no lifts once you get into the store, so that's worth noting if you have trouble with them. The range of products available was decent, yet the store inside had more of a slightly cheap and more of a typical CeX vibe, not too modern, the overall cleanliness of the store also could have been improved drastically. Prices can be a little hit and miss, with some prices often costing the same to buy "new" elsewhere, CeX argue this is to give the person trading in or selling their used product back to them the best price, but in most prices one of the two prices isn't the best, so it is finding the balance to that. The store looks nice and inviting from the outside and it is in a good central Liverpool location, yet as you go into the store it doesn't scream a modern city centre location which I feel my closer branch Manchester Arndale in a way does, so I feel CeX on Lord Street only deserves a two-star rating due to the issues discussed.

CeX is a store where you can trade in your unwanted electronics goods (as long as they are in full…read moreworking order and in adequate condition) to be resold at the store. All items you trade in are fully tested to meet specific criteria, so there are no shortcomings when buyers decide to purchase pre-owned items. If an item you buy is faulty, there is a refund policy as long as you return the item with the receipt. I have been a registered member with the store for about 3 years and ever since, I have traded in many items (mostly dated mobile phones) as I often like to keep up with the trend when it comes to anything technology related! Once trading in, there is the option of 'exchange' or 'cash' but whichever you choose, there is not much difference in terms of value. It all depends on your preference. It's an ideal store for those who are into gaming, mobile phones, computers and mp3's however it if you decide to buy any of their goods, items will usually be more expensive than the RRP which in a way does not make sense because products are pre-owned; this is actually their way of making profits so be warned. Personally I would suggest this store if you wish to trade in for cash or want to buy second-hand games (these are always cheaper) but everything else is has a bigger price tag.

Unlike a few other CeX stores in Merseyside, this one has a decent selection of games for older consoles and for reasonable prices. The shop is very small and generally not too busy. During holidays it'll usually be a little bit busier, but that's to be expected when everybody's off school. The staff here are very nice and helpful, I don't think I've ever had to wait too long to be served here as the queues are typically very short. I wouldn't recommend selling to CeX in general (like many people have said elsewhere), because they're known for offering an incredibly small amount of money for what you're trying to sell and then selling it off for a lot more.

Indeed, let's hope that Level Up continues along its current course of becoming the spiritual successor to the sadly-deceased Chip Shop 2000 (except with actual fair prices and slightly less snarky staff). Keep up the great work!

I've never been refused cash or store credit exchange for items, and the process was easy and unintrusive to bring things in to sell. I have also been able to find some interesting and good music there, although it involves a lot of luck, rifling and dross. You can also ask them to show you the CD/DVD/game before you buy so that you can check for no scratches. I bought a CD once which skipped and they refunded it with no questions asked. They're willing to demo any item for you, too so if you're nervous about splashing out money on a games console for example, youcan try before you buy. Queue tend to be long at times though so be prepared to wait!!
