They do have a lot of stock and loads of accessories to offer for mobiles but some of the prices can be a bit extreme for such a little shop and especially when you think you will save yourself some money in here.

NJ Mobiles is a "family business" who mainly specialise in mobile phone repair, selling accessories…read moreand buying second-hand phones, I called here a good few months ago now, towards Easter of this year and I'm shocked I've never actually had chance to review here yet, it is located in a good location on Albion Street in Oldham town centre. The store staff seemed rather friendly, albeit inside the store was quite small, he seemed to work with some of his family, wife and younger children besides him as it appeared the children had just returned home from school, or something of that nature when I called in. NJ Mobiles offered me a rather generous quote on my old phone, which I accepted as it was considerably better than what the likes of CeX and Game were offering me, and the amount was perfect for me as it matched the amount that I would have to pay Tesco Mobile to terminate my contract early, by paying off the usage of my phone, ahead of getting the Iphone 7 Plus with O2, after O2 offered me a much better deal than Tesco. The selection of phones here is average, but that is the trade in a way, reliant on what people bring in and of course, unlike the likes of CeX, Game and Cash Converters, it isn't a large chain which can rely on the big company to help in terms of stocking things. Overall, good staff and generous offers to trade-in old phones earn this place a solid three-star rating, selection of phones to buy and other slight issues such as the overall size of the store, do slightly let this place down.

Review for CeX Arndale Manchester - A Wasted 24 Hours and a Damaged Device…read more I regret to say that my recent experience with CeX Arndale Manchester was not only deeply disappointing but also a telling symbol of why this company may not exist in the next 20 years. I handed in a pristine device, expecting a straightforward evaluation, only to have 24 hours of my time wasted, only to be told that my phone was "not sellable." More disturbingly, the device was returned to me with two fresh marks/scratches that were not there before. The damage was done, quite visibly, and the person who returned it to me a female staff member seemed unaware or indifferent to the fact that the device had clearly been mishandled during their assessment process. This kind of carelessness is not just unacceptableit i s corrosive to any customer-facing business. The irony here is tragic: the very company that prides itself on being a marketplace for used electronics seems to be accelerating its own obsolescence by treating both customers and their devices with such disregard. If this is how CeX treats the people it relies on to sustain its inventory, it's no wonder many consumers are moving toward decentralized tech trade-ins and platforms that operate with transparency, speed, and respect. In an age of intelligent automation, blockchain-based transactions, and next-gen peer-to-peer resale models, CeX's archaic and inconsistent service model epitomized by the careless behaviour I witnessed today is writing its own demise. It's no longer just about product margins; it's about trust, precision, and a future-ready approach. On all of these, CeX failed. This experience has left me unhappy and disillusioned, and unless there's a radical shift in professionalism and process, this may well be my last dealing with CeX.

I'm not the biggest fan of CeX, however, this store is okay, it is quite a large store, located…read moreinside the Manchester Arndale, close to TKMaxx and the new Halle Place Dining Quarter. CeX is a second-hand goods chain, of course, that means the products you are buying are used, I do find most of their prices to be a little expensive, especially on newer releases, CeX defends this by saying "They are trying to combine getting the best possible trade-in price and the best possible sales price", but I just think the trade-in price is often too low, and the sale price is often too high, on some newer releases in games/phones, the price can often be the same OR more expensive to buy the game from here, compared to a new version from a different retailer within the shopping entre or Amazon. Although the queuing system could be dealt with better and seems to be a little messy at times, the staff seem friendly enough. They do have some cheap hidden gems here of older games and DVD's which is pretty handy, which is probably the only reason I use this store for now. 3*
