Edit: And leaving aside stolen goods for a moment, I did enjoy Switch launch-day, when I saw their staff carrying two Switches each out of the local Game and back to their own store (putting their staff badges back on as they went back inside).

Wind your neck in a bit huh...
Great to see the EG forum snobbery is alive and well.
My local one is a good spot, one of the busiest shops in the town center, the staff are all sound, most of their customers are fine too and I use it myself (both for selling and buying). It's the only place in at least a 100km radius where you can buy PS2, PS3, Xbox, Xbox 360, PSP, Vita, DS, 3DS, Wii and Wii U games, accessories and consoles (not to mention the random bits of 90s stuff they occasionally get). If you're inclined towards any sort of retro action, being able to inspect the games and consoles before you buy is a real boon.
I think the only smell ye're getting is the one that inevitably happens when your holier-than-thou heads are jammed up your arses.
Who were you before you were banned btw? -

Registered 5 years agoAt some point, every game shop I've ever visited has had a bad odour. It feels horrible to say this, but it's not uncommon with video game fans. Especially younger males. I've had to evacuate a store on a number of occasions because somebody is wearing an incredibly thick odour that you can pretty much taste. The kind that comes from being unwashed for weeks at a time. They're oblivious, themselves, but it's strong enough that everyone else in the building suffers. -

What is it they say about people who can't smell a bad smell? -

Registered 3 years agoBest thing I’ve seen is at a board game expo where they had a freshen up stall with deodorant etc. Is it that difficult to wash everyday? -

Registered 1 year agoMy other favourite hobby outlet, Games Workshop, has suffered similarly, but lots of criticism and a corporate approach to selling (actually beneficial in this case) which dictates if shops don't ming, sales go up, has resulted in change for the better.
CEX do have it doubly tough, a lot of their stock has cardboard and paper packaging and has probably been in a box in a cupboard near / with smelly trainers in it for some considerable time, so there will be a bit of musty puther before they even open the door.
All the more reason to address it though. -
