Hi Callum 👋 Me & my son went into Burton CEX last week & the manager served us. He's such a lovely guy! He knows that my son is a massive fan of yours & I was telling him that my son was in CEX a few Sundays ago with his Dad & they saw you in there. My son really wanted to come & say hello to you, but he was too shy! I was telling the manager & he said that he'd show us what you'd bought in. He showed us the Spongebob box & the Nintendo Switch box. Fair play to you, matey! You certainly earned that £500+ credit with all the running around you did! I've told my son if he sees you again when he's in there with his Dad to come & say hello. We love watching your videos & this one was definitely our favourite!

[@RetroGhetto]

@Melonie54 love that! Thank your son for supporting the channel, and tell him to say hello next time! I'll make sure there's some Retro Ghetto stickers behind the counter, next time he's in ask the manager to pass him one! 🙏 *** I'll make sure there's a few if any other parents are reading this.

[@vml8419]

Morally, I have no problem with this. I remember when the PS5 was released and CEX was charging £815 when the RRP was £449. A big win for Retro Ghetto 👏

[@dooleh84]

But what about poor amazon?! D:

[@BeeRad8090]

So sick cal mate, fire play. Nice chunk of credit to play with there 👍👊

[@RetroEli82]

Hey Callum, my first time commenting. Love the Channel, great content. I love Old School video games(from the Atari 2600 to the PS2), I'm also Subscribed to Scott's Retro Collectables, Ed Hunt's, Dan The Games Man, Retro Rummage, Gentleman of Games, Fully Playable Games, Bin Boot Sale Pickin, TheGebs24, BeeRad and Collectors Quest. Keep up the great content, much respect from the Western U.S. 👍🏽😎👍🏽🕹️🎮

[@Oswoldo]

Something pretty sad about seeing brand new stuff opened up by Cex. But on the other hand I imagine these collectors editions have been available for ages - anyone that bothered surely would have already picked them up.

[@TheChipAdvisor]

Shame it no longer works.... I suppose this is another good reason to join the ghetto gang. Well done my friend, another top video. 👍

[@Shadowmancer88]

Nice one, nothing wrong with buying cheap for a large trade in 😊

[@jordanlee5183]

Stumbled across your channel recently makes me want to start collecting again i do miss it sweet deal though pal

[@sneshead3326]

Always enjoy watching the Retro Ghetto wheelin’ n dealin’ in Cex

[@Wizbitsrandomgaming]

Well played sir 👏👏

[@antonydarcy436]

Sad to have missed this for myself, but very excited to see what you do with this. Heavy hitting snes game!? Loads of switch or a mix of everything. Next few vids will be interesting🤣

[@Ste_365]

Nicely done matey!

[@MrClungeHead]

What a play! Smashed it. Love a come up like this. Good work man

[@kasstro10]

This video was really enjoyable and inspirational. As a collector who is encouraged by your videos I absolutely go out with the idea of, if I get a bargain with sell on value I’m absolutely cashing in or getting vouchers. Love it Callum quality bit of business & a fun vid 🔥

[@IOSALive]

Retro Ghetto, cool video I loved it

[@jeremy1078]

Awasome deal Callum!!!😂😂😂

[@redheadnerd96]

Great profit bud. But this confuses me, because how would one know to get a deal like this on a certain game. Like do you just have to find the specific game that you want in particular and then see if they have (get any 3 for £45) listed on it??. Or is it only for certain games?

[@RetroGhetto]

I have no idea how you would "find " these deals, I was fortunate to of been sent them

[@leeb2288]

Another great video callum keep bringing them mate

[@goatbone]

Crazy deal. Once upon a time my mate showed me that a big online book retailer had a bunch of reduced stock for around 90% off so we ordered a bunch of books. All of them were cancelled except for the most expensive which was this huge $400 book which i got for not much at all.

[@luketravis9303]

Del Boy of the north!! Good find and what a mate to share that find. Have fun spending your winnings. Spend money to make money!! 😂

[@themattmanera]

CEX needs an Amazon account! Lol. Nice job!!

[@ReviewsWithRich]

My genre of videos bro! The hustle is strong! I managed to get a series x from saving vouchers (car boot games etc) over a few months.

[@leeabrahams9342]

So what was the name of the seller on Amazon?

[@tomdarbyshire1703]

I just appreciate you tried to let people know could get some people some amazing games with those vouchers ;) 🎉

[@Bungle06]

All these crybabies for a company that are accused for not paying there taxes. Get on mate I say

[@sewandsurf4778]

Ignore the haters bro, if its there to be done then enjoy it and carry on with your awesome collection

[@alliekittiekat]

That's crazy! Looking forward to the future CEX lottery! 😄

[@atomiswave1971]

The last time I had vouchers the ink came off the receipt or the value expired. Which seems like a scam to me. Is that how it works still? You get this card why don't they add the credit to the card and let you spend it like that?

[@mattyfowler2k13]

It should never expire they put a thousand years of time for you to spend it. I’ve personally never had a voucher lose its ink.

[@atomiswave1971]

@@mattyfowler2k13 I have a card for cex. It should just have everything on that. Pieces of paper is not a good system. You could lose it easily

[@TGWWUC]

Nice to see someone actually making some money from CEX haha nice one 😊 and good vid m8 on a side note I went on Amazon and couldn't work out how to get that offer 😮

[@user-cn5xy2bn2j]

Be careful, cex will put a note on your account selling too many similar and will be bulk discounted

[@tsu177]

yeah i have 40 copies of truck racer that i have to sell online because i dont think they will take them lol

[@mikesmfc]

Well played sir, funilly enough my CEX has a few of these spongebob collectors editions in for a while now, so I knew how big they were going to be as soon as you mentioned it.

[@badblood1644]

That’s one way of getting to the goal you need nice one dude 🤙

[@krisorgan]

What a result, absolutely insane, ya lucky bugger. Fair play. I really don’t understand how the hell this happened but I’d do it in a heartbeat. There’s absolutely nothing morally wrong with this. It’s not as if you’re a scalper, you are not selling it to people for an inflated price.

[@jamiemoet9091]

I think they may have stopped the glitch in the matrix, I wanted to see if it was still available to do but when I choose switch or even xbox and then click buying options....only one option is available, the expensive one 🤣

[@Corfield81]

I worked at CEX and there was no "head office" ? lol odd

[@Hulmeloonz]

Wounded i would have been all over this not available now 😢

[@devriak4263]

Your cex account will probably get flagged as a trader now

[@pedroelkillio84]

I haven't caught a deal like that in a dogs age. I think last one I got was a guy at a Sunday market selling Skylanders swap force starter sets for the Wii for a fiver and cex were giving 18euro at the time so I bought 20 in total over 2 weeks and kept dipping into a few CEXs to trade them in.

[@ryanthecollectorkid]

Man what an incredible profit to get well done 👍🏻

[@Retrosteve81]

Well done, the hustle was well worth it 👌

[@RetroRewind77]

Wow that’s some sweet deal

[@gashmcnash3537]

Del Boy vibes 😂

[@ajc1888]

Just checked Amazon, the game is up in price to £187., that's a great friend you have 🎉🎉

[@tradingcardboss]

Great Vlog 🎉🎉

[@lobi8655]

If you can’t get into CEX and are worried about a price dropping imminently, raise a drop and go order online and the price is valid for 2 days I think even if it goes down..at least that’s my understanding of it.

[@CragusMaximus]

I better see some sweet, insanely rare Nintendo cardboard being bought with those vouchers! Or perhaps a mega drive game😍👀

[@AronGunningham]

Feel bad for the Amazon seller who obviously made a mistake in their listing. Remember it’s not Amazon selling, it’s usually individuals or small companies

[@gloverdragon6854]

It is Amazon if they states sold by Amazon and fulfilled by Amazon. Amazon will always tell you who’s selling what.

[@TomColv]

Offer gone lol

[@gregc7699]

Always hate that they open sealed products i always thought CEX could sell things for more if they were sealed and less if they were open much like they do with the manuals bit silly in my opinion but hey ho

[@mattyfowler2k13]

I agree they don’t seem to care that they could sell things for a lot more if they leave them sealed l So 😂

[@gregc7699]

@@mattyfowler2k13 was in a CEX few months back geezer in there had a controller they opened it and offered him some silly amounts he was pissed as he didn't get as much as he wanted but had to sell it to them as they had opened it and he couldn't sell it on as new elsewhere it's ludicrous tbh

[@BeardTheGamer]

I'm just jealous, unlike others no bitterness my end. I did it a few years ago with a Blu Ray boxset but CEX were quicker to shut that down!!

How does one join the Discord? Loving the channel mate, I am happily satisfying my collector bug vicariously through you. Sick to see you're a fan of trainers and clothes too - can we see a little bit more of the crep collection? I really like the AF1 vibes - have you been checking out either the OG colourway "Big Bubble" ones released over the last 2 Air Max days, or any of the Patta collabs? Keep it up bro.

[@RetroGhetto]

This is why i honestly don’t understand why people buy collectors editions cause they pre order it then when they get it t they take out the dlc then just sell the collectors edition and just buy a standard edition of the game

Give some of the ghetto gang a heads up sometimes eh 😛😅

[@dooleh84]

You forgot that you spent like 180 pounds on that 500 store credit. I mean you sure made a nice profit, but you didn't really make the whole 500 pounds with it. Sadly I can't do anything like this in my country, and even if I could, my local GS gives vouchers for ~1/3 of the price they charge for those same games, and they expire in 3 months.

[@chugginmyestus5024]

What a deal that's a joke haha

[@Groupon_Code]

🏆

[@KevinDunnaew]

Not cool! This is pretty much Scalping for profit!

[@jamiemoet9091]

Kevin = the male counterpart to a Karen, they are everywhere!

[@Wizbitsrandomgaming]

No, scalping is buying new releases and selling them to the public for ridiculous prices It's completely different

[@jonathantravels]

That's business and the real world.

[@RetroGhetto]

I understand that view point. For me personally as a collector this is essentially selling games to buy games, I am morally ok with it, it's just a shame the links had been removed from Amazon, as this video was supposed to be making people aware of this deal. Thanks for watching

[@gregc7699]

What do you think CEX do then it's business mate it's exactly the same as them buying stuff for cheap and selling it for profit no difference
