Paid Members Big Benny HG Posted March 26, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 26, 2012 I made sure to head to GAME and hastily convert all my unspent Christmas gift vouchers into Microsoft Points on Saturday, in light of the news.  From Facebook Dear GAME customers,  5.Gift cards: We have also had to suspend GAME gift cards. The value on these cards cannot be redeemed. If this changes, we will let you know. We apologise for the inconvenience this causes. Phew, just in the nick of time.

Smeg_&_The_Heads Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 The local Gamestation closed down about a hour ago and there is a notice on the door of Game saying they are closing down. Â I spent all my points from both shops about a week ago as the staff warned me to spend them ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phew, just in the nick of time.  I had a good chunk of money on a Reward card and Gift card but couldn't see any games I wanted so at the beginning of the month, I gave them to my sister. I told her to spend them ASAP with GAME's problems and she fortunately did on Friday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Posh Posted March 26, 2012 Author Share Posted March 26, 2012 The Peterborough Game Station is still going strong though I suspect most of them are emailing CEX begging them to open a Peterborough store so they can work there. Â Both Games are also still trading I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if places like CEX are contacting Game/Gamestation to try and pick up some really cheap stock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Dent Posted March 26, 2012 Share Posted March 26, 2012 Spent all my reward points on an Xbox live sub last week. Hope the ones near me stay, I like to trade stuff in and would always rather go buy a new release in store for a fiver more than it is online than have to rely on the postal service. Can see how the business model isn't the most profitable the way it is though, it's no massive surprise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted March 26, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 26, 2012 I've never even heard of CEX. Is it another chain store selling video games? It's a Cash Convertors type shop, converts stolen goods into crack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
