the worst thing is when they put they put the disc for the platinum/ greatest hits version in the case for the normal version. Also putting stickers on cardboard sleeves for games, I had it today with halo combat evolved anniversary
11:33 i bought a game from oldham cex a few weeks ago and not only did they put a thumb on it, they aggressively wiped the disc in circles with a cloth
I bought DragonQuest 5 on the DS for £120 from cex and when it showed up it was so brown and stained, even had crumbs inside the case. Literally paid 120 quid for a coaster
I bought The Lord of the Rings Return of the King from CeX the other day and a previous shop had, for some reason, gone to the effort to take the cover out of the case and stick their "pre-owned" and barcode sticks directly to the paper! Thankfully the sticks came off without ripping anything but honestly, it's not even carelessness, some people just don't care about the stuff the game comes with.
I'm with you, I hate waiting for deliveries. My whole day will revolve around the delivery even though I could probably do 50 other things before it arrives.
The Resident Evil Chronicles games for the wii are surprisingly fun but not essential. However i strongly recommend playing the Revelations games! (noticed you got them recently) because theyre awesome, especially Revelations 2, plays very similar to RE4 / The Last Of Us
How many games can you fit on your small billy shelve with the spine showing? I'm looking in to getting one thanks for you inspiration to upgrade my setup. Don't know if you'll see this comment.
@@theunexplainablecrumbs4387 I really wish they would introduce "PlayStation 3 Rarities" and "Xbox 360 Rarities" sections... Just like they did with PlayStation 2 and GameCube etc. That way I would know if I'm getting a manual when buying expensive games for those systems.
@@theunexplainablecrumbs4387 yeah it sucks. U do now guarantee it with retro games separately listed with and without manual.. however ps2 and ps3 unless the game is about £80+ they don't specify! So stupid. It should be any old game over £30
I don't know if you have a label remover, but they're useful when removing annoying labels and stickers from retro cardboard. I use something called labelclene. It generally works OK but some stickers are just too thick/resistant for it to do its job.
Great vid and pick up! Just an FYI as you mentioned cases being swapped out when looking at your PS1 games. Your copy of Resi 1’s case has been swapped out, or at least the front case has been. Resi 1 didn’t have a holo sticker on the front, it would also cover the Capcom logo in the corner too. The platinum version did though. ..Yes, it’s sad that I know that.
I'm not doing cex online as last time I did it I bought pokemon ruby which ended up being a fake and they refused to refund me so I've been trying to get help from citizen advice
Interestingly there was only 4 ps1 games that released in a cardboard sleeve, tekken 1, nba 97, warhawk and MK3, nice little collection to complete as there is only four. Also godzilla was £260 two weeks ago so im surpsied to see that drop to £195 over the past week or so!
Very nice pick up mate, I’ve recently picked up the ps3 Godzilla game factory sealed from eBay, I know you pay a bit more but at least you know you’re getting a decent copy!
Resident evil 2 is my favourite of the resi franchise! Haunting ground is fantastic it's definitely a lost gem capcom could of done more with as it's the spiritual successor to clock tower great survival horror of the PS2 era 🌟♥️
“The cex lottery, as i like to label it” 😂. Fella, the cex lottery has been called that for years.

The worst is when you spend big money on a game and they don't even include the manual
What shelves are you using for displaying your games?
The ones in the background displaying many cases.

I’m not into vintage video game collecting at all but for some reason I just love watching your videos 😂
Great vid lad, btw that Godzilla game for the ps4 is quite good imo, I know the reviews are shit but if you are a Godzilla fan it’s honestly not bad.

I lost the lottery today... Ordered Silent Hill Downpour(£55 game) for PS3 and it got delivered today without a manual.
This is my only issue with cex, I wish there was some guarantee you'll get a manual with certain orders

And did the game work? I’ve had CEX games arrive and they don’t boot.
It's worth getting used to a hidden taskbar
Great video hope you get 10k soon🎉
I'm grateful to you for showing me your video games you always been honest 💯
Bedford is near me😂 I got there by train as I don't have a car every couple months or so to meet my older brother and go to cex there

Got Godzilla on ps4 recently 😅
Im tempted to do content like you man ngl. I also collect games like a madman
You where lucky with your silent hill 2 game I ordered one about 6 months ago and it looked like a dog had chewed it
take the inlays out and clean your RE3 case with IPA and a cotton pad bet most of it is just dirt
Great content I just subscribed.
bedford is between birmingham and london
Hahaha I lost trying to buy forza 3 on cd keys, that support is giga trash. I’m gonna try on king in if that doesn’t work it’s over 😂.
I hate platinum games got gt3 normal case disc was platinum so didn't have the cool gta pictures
