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

I doubt 40. I read that you can only use the code ONCE per paypal account. And paypal verifies and checks for duplicate accounts via CC number/account number. So you would need 40 creditcards for that to work.

But yes, douchbags abuse such things sadly. I was really happy to get 5pounds off. Of course other people think that they are entitled to 50pounds off :\ That's why you also need to use "quote-to-reveal" here, otherwise codes get stolen. Same is true for scalpers. Buying 10 to sell them all on ebay for inflated prices.
 
Preowned steelbook of Vanquish just went down to a fiver on Gamestation. Must be all sorts of bargains popping up if you can find them before the HUKD crowd.
 
My AAI 1 order was just cancelled at The Hut due to no more stock anywhere :(.

On the upside, the tales of abyss 3ds order is still alive. I would assume that that one would have also been cancelled by now. Perhaps they're getting some new stock from the same source as amazon.
 
Gears of War 2 - £1.98
Op. Flashpoint: DR - £2.98
Stranglehold - £0.98
Bulletstorm: Epic Edition - £2.98
Crackdown - £2.98

Good prices at Gamestation..
 
Xbox LIVE 4200 Microsoft Points (Xbox 360) Import - £29.99 @ The Game Collection

Hmm, I was looking for this many points for this price...not sure about this Russian/Polish business. Anyone have any experience?

I've bought points from Europe before and they've been fine on my UK account. Saying that, there's always somewhere selling them in the UK for around £15 for 2100 so you could easily just get some UK points.

Yeah I thought this until I looked the other day and they were £16.49 everywhere? I've ordered the thing now, worth a go I guess.
 
About to preorder the US version of Tales of Graces F and want it to arrive as soon as possible. I usually use videogamesplus.ca but sometimes it can take a while to arrive from there. I've heard good things about planetaxel, is this a good choice or is there a better alternative to get it to the UK quick?

My last order from planetaxel a week ago arrived within 4 days. Previous ones have usually taken arounda week.
 
Would it be frowned upon if I aksed whether anybody had a spare Gamestation voucher from the Gameplay closing-down thing? I didn't receive one even though I have bought from Gameplay many times, and I don't see anything really cheap that I want to use the couple of quid on my reward balance on... thanks in advance

I didn't receive a voucher either, bit annoyed with that!
 
they sent me a £5 off but the terms are you need to spend £10 to use it
 
Would it be even possible to have some crazy deals on the newest SSX? My fingers are craving for some snowboarding. PS3 version. Just checked around the usual places in Finland but all are out of stock at the moment (the cheap ones that sell tax-free)

Now it's the worst time to search for a deal unless the game completely bombed which is not the case.

And from what I've seen this year so far, it might be a bit longer than usual for prices to drop. Prices are even higher than they were in December, which is definitely odd.

Shit. Well one shoppe here is selling it for 41€ (53$) including shipping so I guess I gotta use that. Out of stock still but.. can't wait much longer :d
 
DJ Hero 2 (360) is £2.98 preowned at Game.co.uk and Gamestation.co.uk. It keeps going out of stock and then back in stock again, I set up a stock alert and managed to order just in time so keep checking if you want it.
 
Do not forget shipping of ~7EUR + the cost of a UK->DE power plug or a DE power cable.
But yes, UK is much cheaper for almost everything.
 
@Sphinx
Both expensive. MM/Saturn got the 250 gb slim for 199 with 2 DL games (Crysis 2 and Forza 3)

well, that's a good deal if you care for crysis and forza, which I don't :), not to mention I hate DD.

Do not forget shipping of ~7EUR + the cost of a UK->DE power plug or a DE power cable. But yes, UK is much cheaper for almost everything.

7 EUR is already included in the number I gave, and the power plug, you only need an adaptor, not the whole power brick, it's a couple of euros at most.
 
Not really, got my 360 arcade for 112 Euro at Amazon.de. Consoles are cheaper in Germany.

the old model? did you get it at a clearance? sounds like a great deal, I have never seen any console at that price in amazon.de or other places in Germany.
