After owning an SS, I don't think I could ever go back to the sports

I find CEX expensive; plus, their B & M shops smell bad.

CEX seems quite well priced for most (not all) things. Stick to their Grade A stock and you'll be fine

I haven't noticed a smelly one yet, only a dirty one. Although certain stores are cleaner than others. Where I live 3 out of 4 are really clean and spotless and the products are mint and look new. The dirty store also had dirty products. So if the store looks clean, chances are the products will be clean. If the store looks dirty, dirty products!

Also they provide 2 year warranty on all items. Buy an Apple Watch 1 year later at half the price and get 2 years warranty. If it dies after 23 months they either replace it or refund the current market price.

You can't go wrong

The CEX in Milton Keynes stinks of smelly people... Urgh!

Both CEX stores near me absolutely stink of BO, it's so bad my girlfriend refuses to go in anymore and either waits outside or goes in a different shop.

Yeah, proper smell! Same smell that used to be in the old Blockbuster stores! lol

If the people that frequent the store have such bad hygiene there is NO WAY I'm buying a watch band from there!

I must be lucky! Luckily the stores don't smell. One just looks dirty. There was a stinky guy in front of me before but after he left, the smell went with him! If I bought the watch he used to own, well, I think it's not a good idea to think about stuff like that when you visit CEX

Exactly, I only sell stuff to CEX or buy if it's A Grade sealed (bought a couple of sealed watch bands and iPhone cases last year) otherwise in general I don't buy used tech anyway. God knows what the previous owner has been touching then touching the tech.

Wow, if I visit England, looks like I need to visit a CEX! Popular place.

Or if they are really lucky, at a third of the price with 11 months AppleCare+ remaining.

I don't know how many times you bragged in the forums about how little you paid for your AW already. Give it a rest.

So OllyW saved some money by purchasing a used Apple Watch and he mentions it in on an Apple Watch forum, doesn't equate to bragging. I'm on the Apple Watch forum quite frequently and I never saw a post he "Bragged" about a used Apple Watch.

Another forum member sharing their experience(s) isn't equivalent to bragging. Many forum members have purchased used Apple Watches on here and discussed their thoughts frequently, should their posts be construed as "Bragging" as well?
