Some of the offers are quite good.
I found rude staff, intimidating, poor trade in prices
I'm not a typical gamer, I play a limited amount of Nintendo DS games and also play a limited amount of PC games so I can find this shop really intimidating. Normally you've got large groups of teenage boys hanging around making it hard to get around the shop and once you've found something you want to buy you take it to the till and are served by a grumpy sales assistant who would rather read some gaming magazine than serve the customers, they mumble the price at you, don't say please or thank you and then dump the change in your hand before going back to reading their magazine. It's not the kind of shop I'm at all comfortable in.
I think the prices they pay for trade in is poor and I've frequently got better money from Game. There was this one occasion though where I wanted to see if they'd do a trade-in on a game I bought for my cousin (Strawberry Shortcake) which she'd finished playing with and the sales assistant took one look at the game and said we won't trade this in. No sign of any politeness from them just a smirk. I took it to Game and got about £6 for it.
The only good thing I can say about this place is that they recentely did a buy one get one free deal on Pre-Owned PC Games which meant I could buy two Sims 1 Expansion Packs for about £4.
