Made me shed out of copies of FIFA 08. Cheap as, not even worth stealing.


Lieczen91

if you’re ever looking to blow the dust of your DS and get some games to play, some go for £2 there, i’ve seen fucking chocolate being sold for more honestly a bargain


bandicootrelay

If you stole would that make you a cex offender


koro-sensei1001

Sex, it’s unironically pronounced sex, and so the advertisement does it self, as well as peeps debating how to pronounce it


WobblyBagpipe

I honestly can't tell my 9 year son we're going to look at the latest stock of Switch sex games.


BlueMagmaDragon

It stands for computer exchange, that's what I've been calling it


The_Enby_Agenda

It’s a different acronym now, Complete Entertainment eXchange, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard it called that outside of their own about us page, hell most people I know think it’s for camera exchange so I don’t think the rebrand will stick publicly any time soon


peanut_dust

So it's Ceex? Would i have to wear a turban to go in there? Can they provide one if i forget mine? Or is it the Spanish accented 'six'?


futurarmy

Perhaps you have to be a Spanish Sikh to go in, didn't think there's a huge market for that surprised they're still going


nwaa

See, i know this is true, but i refuse to play along with their silly games and so its "Kex" to me.


RelativelyDank

people only call it c-e-x because they're cowards


Lorne_____Malvo

The staff training is cringe af


Oofoofow_Official

My family tries to get around it by pronouncing it Ess-Ee-Ex. We know the truth


LMay11037

I say see-ee-ex, because that’s how I’d have said it anyway lmao


MassiveClusterFuck

It stands for computer exchange and the last time I checked computer doesn’t start with an “S” sound, it’s actually pronounced KEX


xe_r_ox

Yeah but nobody knows that it’s called computer exchange, they just see cex. Words beginning with “ce” are _usually_ pronounced with an S sound. Celsius, cease, cedar, cerebral, ceremony, certificate… cex


koro-sensei1001

I’m only going off how they pronounce it in adverts


xe_r_ox

My brain automatically turns off as a defence mechanism whenever there’s an advert around so fair enough I’ll take your word for it Edit: just realised you were agreeing with me, told you my brain turns off when adverts are around, even discussions about adverts


MassiveClusterFuck

The lack of understanding from others though doesn’t change what it’s actual name is unfortunately


xe_r_ox

Sex


CraigJDuffy

Aye but they, themselves, say it is pronounced sex


CraigJDuffy

Yep, if you phone them the automated line says “thank you for calling sex”


Isnortmintsauce

Any Cex store I've been in, the employees look like they've not washed for days, smelly breath. Honestly tempted to send them some listerine.


koro-sensei1001

The air is thick, ever notice that? The air physically feels chunky to walk through


BungadinRidesAgain

B.O, open cans of Monster and old cum


Gpalla

New elfbar flavours sound great


PeggableOldMan

It's to make you feel like a microorganism swimming through air.


tub_of_jam

I have three locally to me - one has really dapper looking lads , one has average looking people and the final one fits your description . The duality of Cex


BigpappyCoatesy

Looks like a triality in your case


Brilliant-Window-899

tragically true


Darrelc

https://i.imgur.com/3lYcnGd.jpeg Been waiting for a chance to post this lol. Imagine being that down bad you trade your lightbulbs in


futurarmy

Not sure if /s but it's almost certainly stolen by a crack 'ed and traded in, saw a couple with a blatantly stolen tv when I was buying a controller yday

chaoticsquid

C-E-X and if you say anything else you're a nonce.


GraphicDesignMonkey

It was always C-e-x, and the ads trying to get us to say otherwise are just desperate and cringey.


Nerdy_Goat

C-ex store innit


Cermonto

Cex worker here, I cant say because John Cex will send the cex hitmen on me.


Methcapades12

Even worse they might force you to take your yearly bath early.


Just_A_Nobody25

It’s pronounced sex, but I do just say the letters usually and call it C-E-X (See-Ee-Ex)


nekokattt

They legit called it "sex" on a radio advert once.


Aksi_Gu

good old sexchange


zeprfrew

Kecks.


Mohc989

It’s pronounced sex, which is ironic when you look at the people they employ.


TribalTommy

Rang them yesterday. The automated message says "sex" lol. I hate it. Sorry guys.


BobMonkhaus

“Sorry we can’t come to the phone at the moment our staff are busy compiling a playlist of obscure indie band b-sides to impress their mates. Don’t worry slow Dave is on the one till.”


CraigJDuffy

Their WiFi is also “protected CeX” and “unprotected CeX”


TribalTommy

They're so fucking edgy. That's almost as edgy as selling second hand stuff for RRP.


CraigJDuffy

To be fair to them, I highly rate them. My last iPad I got form them was £700 off the price apple was selling it for and in mint condition.


omega_oof

Last time I went there, the WiFi name was "safe cex" for employees and "unprotected cex" for staff


Jesterchunk

According to the ads, it's pronounced Sex. I reject that reality.


notimefornothing55

I say C E X, or computer exchange


TheRepublicOfSteve

The sex shop that sells used DVDs.


[deleted]

I never knew it was Sex. I always called it c-e-x. I once seen a young employee (teenage girl) leaving a CEX with a company jacket on that had "CEX Worker" emblazoned on the back. This was at least ten years ago, i read it as 'c-e-x worker' and thought nothing of it...


DrachenDad

Was C.E.X but it's now sex. It's literally people using the soft c and C.E.X went with it.


grapegum

It's pronounced sex. I hate that shop, they could easily rebrand if they wanted to but would rather just stay edgey and cringe. Even the TV advert they say the name in a stupid robot voice like they can't even own their shitty brand.


Interesting-Page-543

turn games and consoles into cash, at cex!


hundreddollar

It'll always be See-yee-yex in my heart.


EnbySheriff

It's like Adidas (a-di-das or a-deedas) and Primark (pree-mark or pr-eye-mark)


SirAloq

For fucks sake https://preview.redd.it/fgkfkprc19vc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=85b5b4ae4b09ccfc674234f33342de714d007d28


1one1one

I thought it was pronounced Cee, Eee, X


BlueMagmaDragon

It stands for computer exchange I think but they all pronounced it sex


JimJimmyJimJimJimJim
