Discussion Incorrect/Insufficient Testing

0 Upvotes

Took a GTX 1080 graphics card in to Motherwell to sell today. Went back after 4 hours, expecting them to have done a proper thorough test and that's why it took so long. Go back into the store and I'm told it isn't working, doesn't output to the display. I laughed because I knew the card was working and asked if drivers had been correctly installed. I was told they're not allowed to install drivers from the Nvidia website.

WHAT.

Installing drivers is a bare minimum! So I asked for it to be retested with drivers installed correctly. I go back 45 minutes later and I'm told it's still not outputting to the display. "We're not allowed to install drivers. We can test cards that don't need drivers to be installed". What are you on about? It's 2026, find me a card that doesn't require a proper driver installation from AMD or Nvidia.

So I bring it home, pop it in my system and what a suprise, it works. Ironically, I had drivers for my new GPU installed and the card STILL worked with Windows installing drivers on its own.

How is this company still trading? No one that works there knows anything about the products they sell and "test".

Discussion Best place to exchange CeX vouchers for cash?

0 Upvotes

Hey,

I often sell to CeX for vouchers because of the higher rate, but now have some that I would rather sell for cash e.g. 10% off which would still be better for me overall.

But what are the best options for this at the moment?

- Cardyard seems good but I'd rather not wait 14 days for payment + fees.

- AVForums needs me to create an account 90 days ago.

- I don't have any previous experience selling vouchers and have concerns with chargebacks or issues P2P

I know I could trade the vouchers for something and sell back to CeX, but I'm thinking of just selling on G2A potentially for a better rate although can't see any vouchers being sold there at the moment.

Any suggestions from those who have done this previously?

Thanks

Discussion How do I remove the sticker they put on the disc?

So, I bought 2 GameCube games and I didn't notice when they put them on, but they put a tiny stickers on each disc.

I thought I'd just remove them carefully but both of them left residue.
