Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers had a great experience with this company. Customers frequently praise the delivery service for its promptness and efficiency, with many items arriving quickly and even earlier than expected. The pricing is consistently highlighted as competitive and affordable, offering good value, especially for second-hand items. Additionally, the service, both online and in-store, is often described as excellent, with staff being helpful and the overall purchasing and selling processes being easy and stress-free. However, some people were dissatisfied with the product quality and condition, noting issues like burn-in on displays, low battery health, scratches, or items arriving dirty and uncleaned. There were also instances where products were faulty or not as described, such as games not installing, controllers with peeling grips or stick drift, or missing components.

Another great purchase from CeX…

Another great purchase from CeX Australia at a good price! I just purchased an Apple Watch Ultra 3 online from CeX in a mint condition including the Apple charger in original box, exactly as described (Grade A) for the item on CeX website. The purchased watch is still under warranty until December 2026. Delivery was prompt, received a proper Tax Invoice immediately after dispatch. CeX also provides 5-year warranty on all purchases. I highly recommend CeX for purchase and sell of tech items.

Hi Bazza,

Thank you for your review.

We have quality standards in place where along with functionality, items are checked before dispatch to ensure they are correct as per the order/grade and are in a clean, presentable condition. It appears that these checks were missed, and we extend our apologies for the disappointment caused.

Rest assured, I will be forwarding this review as feedback to the store management so that their measures can be reassessed and such recurrence is avoided.

To work towards a resolution, please return the item to us either via post or take it to any CeX store near you - https://tinyurl.com/yc5br76c

Should you need assistance with the return or have any other concerns, please write to us through our support page www.webuy.com with subject "TP - Ordered a elite series 2 controller in…" and I will be happy to help.

Regards,
Ramson.

Real people, with the same interests

Both in-store and online experiences have been pleasant, enjoyable, and easy.
In-store, the staff have always been happy to answer questions and help out where they can.
Online, the site is very easy to navigate, and split payments (voucher/s, Mastercard, ApplePay) are very easy to incorporate.

Dear Steve,

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We understand your disappointment upon receiving the TV box in this condition. We want to clarify that all products listed on our website are preowned, and this is also clearly outlined in our About Us section to ensure full transparency for all our customers. As preowned items, they may show signs of prior use, including arriving without original packaging. That said, we do make sure every product is fully functional before it is dispatched.

Could you let us know if the item is working as expected? If you are not satisfied, you are welcome to return it for a refund or a replacement within 8 days of delivery as unwanted. You can bring the item along with your invoice to any of our stores, or send it back by post to our warehouse using our free postal services. For full guidance on the process, please refer to our returns policy: https://bit.ly/3hhqLBF

Should you need any further assistance, please feel free to get in touch with us through the contact form on our website and we will be happy to help.

Used SSD hard drive

The hard drive I bought was as described, and was shipped quickly, but it requires a cable to work which wasn’t included and wasn’t noted on the ad, I feel like this would be buying a laptop with no power cable or a TV with no power cable, I understand Not every item comes with every accessory, but it would be good practice to note that

I purchased a new remote for my Apple TV 4K. Works perfectly. I always suspected the remote I got from Apple with the Apple TV was faulty. This replacement from CeX proves it. So I finally have a functioning remote for a fraction of the price and it arrived in no time!

Quicker than average fulfilment

Quicker than average fulfilment; sub-par protective packaging for such a fragile camera product.

Hi Greg,

Thank you for your review and it is unfortunate to hear about the issues around the packaging.

We ensure that items are packaged with appropriate packaging materials and then sealed to ensure a safe transit. In case of any discrepancies, our customers can highlight them to us so we can work towards a resolution. Feedback will be shared with our store so they can review their packaging checks going forward.

Please consider this as an isolated incident and I hope the item is in working order.

If you require further assistance, please contact us via our support page and we will help you out.

Regards,
Ashwin
