Store Experience
Pros:

"Interesting titles and even some rare finds."
"Happy customer highly advise this store."
"The staff in this store where absolutely amazing."
"It has a really big variety of games and consoles. Many parts that you might need for your retro consoles and really good prices both in New games and used ones."

"You can become a member and earn points to get you free games or money off."
Cons:
"I didn't argue with the member of staff because I don't care to make their day difficult, but their system is really appalling and they need to sort it out ASAP."

"It was frustrating that I had to visit twice to be able to process the order."

"They definitely undersell you. You can sell something to them for a quarter of what they're going to resell it for and I think that's not great."
"Prices ridiculous and try and get a card for selling if you don't have photo I'd is a disgrace, plus they keep you waiting while they decide to serve you ...."

"2yr warrantee for electronic equipment!"
Cons:

"DO NOT try to trade in your phone here!"
"The prices are a tad on the high side for second hand items tbh and for some reason the second hand games are more expensive than they are brand new :/"
"I was sold a defective product."
"I went into this shop bought a DVD only £1.50 Oliver brought it home put it on and it kept on pausing so did not play I had a look at it and it was covered in scratches."
"Bought a HDD from here, it didn't come in an anti static bag and was just placed in a normal bag, the drive makes a clicking noise when I connected it to my computer and is very loud, it does work but does not seem stable."
"Avoid buying a second hand electronic item from here as it won't be checked properly and the warranty will be worthless."
