Cheers used it to order that old pirates of the Caribbean game (don't judge me I always fancied playing through it but never wanted to pay)

My mind went blank even though there's stuff I need
 
lol when it's my money I can think of hundreds of things to buy for <£5 but when it's free, ahhhhhhhhhh. I'm now going to look for some blu-rays.
 
I could not hold myself back, had to make a new paypal to buy more cheap points!

Outside of the 53p transfer fee from paypal to paypal i've saved like 30% on points.

Can I use the code in, let's say 800MS but the code being sent by email avoiding shipping?

Never used ebay =/

yes I did so with 2100 points, just make sure the seller is a well known one with high feedback.
 
Bogged it down to Wave Race GC and Speed Racer Blu Ray. Went with Wave Race since stuff like the new SSX has me reminiscing about those days. Mwahaaha
 
For those looking for inspiration may I suggest this

Me, I bought this, its ugly as all hell but hopefully it will stop my massive hands from cramping up after an hour or so of play.
 
I used my dads and brothers email to use this code to buy points before it expires, since I am still spending money and the seller is getting paid in full I thought it was ok to use a few times over.

Would have spent £47.96 overall, but only being billed for £27.96, a good saving on 5800 microsoft points there.

Play.com are selling the "Aperture Science Handheld Portal Device". Official merchandise, only 5000 made worldwide for £99.99..whether they are worth it or not is upto you. They are 1:1 scale though and look cool as hell.

If it's a play.com exclusive, how come they're offering a discount? What's it a discount *relative to*?

Some guy on HUKD reckons he used 40 of the codes, this is why we cant have nice things.

I saw this, pretty awful, greedy behaviour. The whole point of 1 per account was to spread the benefit to the maximum amount of customers. I would've liked 1 code to pick up a 4200 points card or something but they were all gone by the time I noticed the deal thanks to that poster and others like him.

Standard HUKD fare, then :P
 
a funny thing though is that most of the people on HUKD were buying a £5 memory stick with that ebay deal, the guy they were buying them from had 5000 in stock when it started and sold out within an hour. He probably woke up this morning to find that he needs to write out 5000 envelopes and has £25,000 in his paypal.

This makes the whole thing even more ridiculous. Best/worst day of business ever for that seller!

Amazon have pricematched Play. This one seems like a better deal outside UK - for those countries that get free P&P anyway

(Preorder) Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance (3DS) - £24.99 @ Amazon




I think reviews says it was a good controller replacement, but it not near what you would get by buying a decent quality wheel.

Amazon deleted that and now they have this....even cheaper (23 pounds)

I doubt you can do that, if you've commited to buy its not the sellers fault if you wanted to pay by a code :(

I'm sure that's nonsense though. On any popular thread on HUKD, there's always someone saying 'I bought 50 to sell to CEX loll'. They just do it to wind people up.

I used the code to buy the Space Quest compilation for 48 pence.

Feels good man.
 
I'm glad I used the code when I did, I was thinking "should I wait till morning to browse ebay some more"...then I remembered about those HUKD wankers. They manage to spoil every decent offer/promotion that comes up; worse then flippers.

btw I noticed that Zavvi have the collectors edition of Rayman up on their ebay outlet for about thirty quid:

Probably shifting the last of their stock.
