Stopped here recently while on Vacation in Derby. I grew up here but have lived in the USA for…read morealmost 20 years and as such jumped at the chance to check out some retro goodness. I could have spent an hour in here. There were items I haven't seen since my teens and even though I don't currently own a ZX Spectrum I still bought a couple of games to display. Really nice owner and enjoyed chatting with her. Glad to see they've found a suitable new home and I encourage anyone over the age of 40 to spend some of your hard earned cash in here

This is a very small store but it often has some great bargains that cannot be found in other…read moreplaces. If you are looking for a particular game then this is probably not the right store for you but if you are looking for a general bargain than it is definately worth checking out. Whenever we have been in the staff have been really helpful if we have needed to find something or needed help. The store stocks new and second hand games.

The big reason to go to Playtime is their policy of buying PC games. They offer a small selection…read moreand their newer game prices and bundles are nowhere near as good as Game. But the value of trade-ins are slightly better. The store staff are not very helpful. I would not recommend this store unless you want to trade in old PC games.

CEX is a great place to pick up some good deals on preowned music and DVDs, i wouldn't buy any…read moreelectrical goods like phones etc. from them though as they tend to be over priced, especially considering they're second hand. The Music in the store isn't exactly to everyones taste mostly being heavier rock numbers but if you can put up with it for a few minutes you normally pick up some good deals. The staff are often helpful and will normally replace cd cases etc should they be in poor condition, the only thing being that you do sometimes get the occasional that seems like they would rather be sticking pins i their eyes then serving you.

So today I went to trade in my netbook, had to make two trips as I wasn't aware you had to bring in…read moreID, so once I finally got everything I needed I was told 'testing' would take 2 hours, I waited two hours in town then went back expecting the testing to be finished, but no it hadn't they said the charger cable which I had used the day before and they checked before it went into there hands was now broken, they said it was my fault but how as the cashier checked it before they denied any accusations as the cable has clearly been cut, they said it must have been damaged in transport but I think I have enough intelligence to not store a netbook and cables with sharp objects. Completely wasted and ruined my day never returning to cex which smells of sweat and urine, which is also the most disorganised shop I have ever seen, Yours sincerely Lost customer

TradeMeIn is one of the few, independent stores which buy and sell games, mobile phones and tech…read moreitems, it's most similar rivals include CeX and Game, both of which have stores nearby, for me this store is much more modern and vibrant than other trade-in retailers with a blue theme, it just felt clean and modern inside which you generally don't get with CeX. The location is in Leeds centre, although being in St John's it is a little isolated and doesn't get the footfall which the main city centre and the likes of The Trinity does. The quotes here for trading in items seems rather generous, although for my phone I had been quoted higher from both Mazuma Mobile and Music Magpie, the quote I was given was much higher than any mobile phone networks recycle scheme and their nearest competitors, Game and CEX. The store was a little small, so the selection could have been better. There was a large selection of more older games and DVD's compared too new-ones. I don't like their website, it makes it rather difficult to set up an order and the database just doesn't work online, for example, if you searched for an iPhone it would come up starting with 3GS first, with around 20+ pages, and if you search the iPhone name and model exactly, it doesn't come up so this filtering system just isn't working and needs work, to improve the customer experience before coming into the store. With trade-in prices on average better than its closest rivals, yet not the best overall and a good store feel which is how a trade-in store should be, of course, it can improve based on making sure it is easier to get a quote, and perhaps the size of the store and location to a certain extent, it still is a slightly above average store in general and anything less than a three-star rating would surely be an insult for a store which I see high potential in to be upgraded in the future.
