More Mass Effect 3: N7 Collector's Edition (360) at Amazon, but a bit more expensive.

Those people that bought in bulk to sell on eBay are probably not too happy right now - although they made some money over the weekend :/

this will be a very valuable CE, no matter (same as ME1 and ME2).
I don't think they overproduced it (which, unfortunately, is a trend these days with various CEs).
It will only go up as time goes by.
 
Wow, I can't believe i missed that, it was most likely in mint condition. How often does amazon warehouse post deals like this?
Whenever they get a trade-in (not many for hardware as the rates can be kinda low and I think Amazon actually have standards*), returned unit or just unit damaged at the warehouse (so like the box dented). The product description can give you clues as to which one it is ("All purchases eligible for Amazon customer service and a 30-day return policy." tends to be the latter).

The prices are also highly variable (though less so than the past).

*-i.e. they'll reject bad condition items.
 
Anybody not in the UK who missed out on the Game / Gamestation
liquidation
Spring sale, would be well advised to look on eBay.

I snagged a few things over the w/end, and I've noticed that people are buying up most of the cheap stock and then selling it for 50p more on eBay. You should still be able to get some bargains given that eBay will be flooded with cheap games at the moment....

Yeah this is what I thought would happen which is why i'm not in a hurry.
 
Anything better than £34.97 for Ninja Gaiden 3 at Asda? Some kind of discount code like we had for Mass Effect 3 would also be appreciated. If I can get the game down to around £30 then I'll bite for day 1.
 
Why every online shop gets stock of Tales and the Abyss, but not the TheHut group? Ordered at the 25.1 and they cancelled my fucking order today... Damn. And yeah, 35 IS expensive. Euroland price :/
 
where's the cheapest place for a 3ds? Can find them on play.com atm for £134 atm.

UK or EU? I'm asking cause of the power charger, if you're ok with EU the best price afaik is €134 on Amazon.it (only for aqua blue and black tho) and you get free delivery depending on where you order from.

Yeah I got the cancellation email too, feels bad man.

That sucks.
Im glad I went with amazon since I don't trust theHut for a bit.

While 35 is pricey but it is worth every penny

Similar price to what you can find new here.

Oh, too bad.
£23 less for an aqua blue unit was not too bad (£111/134€ on Amazon.it vs £134 on Play). However, now it's already up to €138/£115).

As for Tales of the Abyss 3DS, it is €36/£30 in stock and without the horrible USK logo and it qualifies for free shipping depending on your Country.

Thanks but shipping is 7 Euro. I dont understand it why they charge higher rates or no free shipping for countries with their own amazon... In fact its amazon.de and not for Austria...
 
I'll check out my local indie gamestore tomorrow. If they have the game I'll pay the extra cost and I'll have the game. Else I'm ordering on amazon.

It really depends on the country. We have Amazon.it but nontheless I still get free delivery for orders >£25 on Amazon.co.uk.
 
Just a heads up for 365games.co.uk: Shipped on the 6th and arrived today on the 14th. UK to Austria. UK to Portugal was 2 - 3 days. So they are faster than Zavvi (TheHut) and Play and as fast or a little slower than VG+.
 
Anywhere to get a PS3 for cheap? How much longer is the GAME closing down sale due to continue for, and will they drop prices any further as it gets towards the end?
 
Still not cheap enough. The game prices and selection on PSN is horrendous.

And honestly that thread on HUKD for this is awful, everyone just 'PM if you wanna know how to pirate!!! LOL' Ridonk.

Well, to be fair, it's perfectly reasonable to rip your *own* UMD games to run on it... unfortunately, that requires access to a hacked UMD PSP. If you do, though, it's a great buy, without actually resorting to parrots and peglegs.
 
PSN has some things on sale.

Title Price(£) Price(€) Price(AU$)
ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Classics HD 15.99 19.99 29.95

The Sly Trilogy 9.99 12.99 19.95

Are these in particular cheaper anywhere else in disc form? I think I've never seen Sly cheaper.
 
OK, that ICO and Shadow of the Colossus Classics HD price is too good to pass, where can I buy UK PSN 20 code for a good price?
 
I use US PSN+ (got the year subscription due to Target price glitch), hope US PSN will offer the same discount for ICO & SOTC.
 
For those of you with Android phones, play.com are clearing out their stock of live view devices. A one inch touch screen that you can wear on your wrist like a watch or clip to things, and it pulls data in off your phone, stuff like tweets, emails, blah blah.

You can use it on any Android phone after downloading the liveview app from the market, and you can see a full scale representation of it here--> http://pective.com/pic/sony-ericsson-liveview

Nice. Bought.

Also, I cannot resist that ICO/SOTC HD price. Weird question: Does it have trophies?
