A guide to selling to CeX and making money

OH thanks. Think ive messed up as i have split them into 3 x 2 and a 3 order with cex. So a total of 4 orders if you see what i mean. Thought that would be better for insurance purposes. Will that cost a lot more ? Thanks in advance

2 options if you've split it into three orders to Cex:

1) Put all four orders, including the paperwork, into one package (I normally also put a covering note saying which order numbers are enclosed) and send special delivery. I've done this a few times and never had a problem. Should cost around £5.40 for this particular order.

2) Send as four packages by recorded first class, as they insure up to £39 which should be adequate for this order.

Personally I'd go with option 1 as postage will be £1 cheaper and its guaranteed next day. You could e-mail Cex to advise them you are doing this if you are concerned they might not process all of the goods.

Thanks for the help. Was thinking if the price holds at cex, might take into store

That's always best if the price hold as you save on P&P. If the price is still the same on Cex you could always place a new order for 9 copies.

The price has dropped at cex now

CeX stores buy for cash: £4.00
CeX Stores give exchange value: £7.00

I sent 9 copies of this game in on Feb 09th, do you think it will be a problem when I send in another 9 in the next week or so ?

shouldn't be a problem as it's not in the same month.

Edit: or within a month, whichever it is they go by.

Not true, the exact rule is 31 days - i.e. you cant send on the 31st, then send on the 1st (the next day)

Its not calender months at all, I beleive the rule is something like 4 weeks or 31 days.

So, if I send them in after the 12th March then it should be ok ?

Have a quick scan of the site - if not send them an email.

Im a bit out of date with my rules - as I only check them as and when they affect me... But Nina I beleive knows the low down...
