Sell laptop on CEX

I want to sell my laptop on CEX but I am stuck on how to do it, who has sold on there as I can not see how to do it.

Have you followed their guide? Which part are you stuck on?

I thought it would be like mazuma etc, just type what you have and it does. Can’t see where you enter what you have to sell

I’ll give it a go, it is a horrible website tbh. I can navigate most things but this… nope.

So having never looked at the website before I thought I’d have a look, quite literally type in what you want to sell it brings the items up you add it to the basket using the I want to sell option and check out.

What I am saying is though where does it say here

That you have to type here?

If it is there I must be blind

I’ve sold quite a few things in store and I have to say their website is pretty horendous unless you know EXACTLY what you’re looking for.

Also if they don’t have stock of what you’re trying to sell then good luck because without a product to click ā€œI want to sellā€ there doesn’t seem to be any way of selling to them without going into store

The CEX website was, and clearly still is, horribly old-fashioned. But given that all the results have ā€œI want to sell this itemā€ buttons underneath them, and the bar says ā€œStart a new searchā€, then to me at least is is clear that you have to type in there.

I’m quite sure that @Venomx can offer some help and advice. They’re expert at this sort of thing. More experience with CEX than I. :+1:

It quite literally tells you in the selling guide, I was on the website for 90 seconds and managed to do a I’m selling thing on 2 items just as a test

Why should I have to go through the hassle of reading a guide?

Does Mazuma have a guide? Nope it is right in your face

Same for Music Magpie

2 sites that are simple to navigate without the need for reading a guide.

First thing you see is the search, that to me is buying and then you see on the right sell but you can’t click on it.

I will probably wait.

SellMyMac are quite good.

CEX arent the most competitive price wise.

You can email them and ask them to produce a quote. They respond in a day or two in my experience

The ā€œI want to buyā€ button is right next to the ā€œI want to sellā€ button in the results. That tells me the search is for both.

In addition to this, simply Googling ā€œselling to CEXā€ gives you the article I posted in the first comment - which also tells you what to do :see_no_evil:

Why is CEX so prominent on this forum? Seems like there’s a daily post on it.

I blame Charlie Brooker.

(He says, hoping he isn’t so old that no-one remembers Toby any more…)

Do you mean cash or voucher sale?

Cash I agree, but I tend to find CEX voucher sales get me more than I would get elsewhere, apart from selling privately.

Manually search for what your looking to sell, click " I want to sell"

Then go to the basket and click drop n go.
Enter your details and whether you want cash or a voucher.

Write down the order number ( you’ll also get an email with it) then take it to cex when they open ( check the new opening hours )

Trade it in in store then wait for the money to come in
