just a heads up for anyone in newcastle....theres some nikon gear (used) in cex. not too sure on the prices of it all but they had a sigma 24-70 2.8 for £250, didn't seem too bad a buy and had a pro-1 filter on it.
 
my local CEX currently has a 1dsmk3, a 40d w/grip, a high price Sigma and Tamron lens, a L glass and 2 flash's, all taken in by the same person.. it was £2500 buy in the shop lad said, biggest they had done.

I asked them if they thought it a bit dodgy someone bringing all that stuff to CEX when they would have got better prices from the likes of eBay and togging forums and the shop lad says

'to be honest I don't think the bloke was too interested in photography'......

now that i think about it this stuff seems a bit suss.....who would sell a lens to cex for nowt, not even bothering to take a pro-1 filter off first?

i thought about offering them a tenner for the filter on its own (i could do with another for my 24-70), but i think i'd probably get a sales assistant who doesn't realise it's seperate from the lens...
 
desperate times maybe

be a shock to see it in places like cash convertors etc.
 
just had a quick look
they have quite alot of nikon gear, non which are at bargin prices i hoped for
 
CEX tend to be quite pricey when you are buying from them, but the cash values tend to be higher than other places when you are selling, although my experience is from DVD's, XBOX360 games and the like, not dealt in camera gear with them, although I've seen several bits in there on my travels.
 
to be fair part ex deals aren't bad, which make up the higher selling prices they have.

i have traded in phones before to upgrade and buy a wii and ps3, all come with 12months warranty.
 
i bought a few hd dvds from them...to be honest i look in there but never end up buying anything nowadays. might be because i can check prices on my mobile...so i can see that half the time they sell used blurays at new prices :-p
