Not really a gaming deal, bu you can get at Zinio $50 Coupon. Then go here, and enter the code, then get some mags digital mags

...there are some gaming mags (like Edge) to spend it on. Sadly they limit of subscription for each mag, so you cannot splodge on just Edge alone.

Thanks man.
 
"Offre limitée à un seul remboursement de 50 euros par foyer, réservée à la France métropolitaine, la Corse et les DOM. "

Metropolitan (the part of the country within Europe) France, Corsica and Overseas France only.
Sorry, it was clear to me that mail-in rebates were strictly national affairs.

Isn't that essentially a prolongation of the 50€ Sony rebate from the end of last year?

I snagged one myself when all these Game stores were being pillaged a couple of weeks ago.
Yes, same principle, I guess sales haven't taken off...
 
got the Tales of...from zavvi, not the one I paid for but well... The price was great, but I'll try to get my money back through PayPal, without sending it back.
 
I wish Amazon.co.uk had a better price for the regular edition. £39.99 is more than I want to pay. Zavvi is the cheapest option but I don't wanto wait 4 weeks until delivery.
They've dropped it down to £35.99 now. Still a fiver more expensive than Zavvi though, taking the 10% coupon into account.
 
I had the Ni No Kuni book in my hands and I did not like it at all (assuming it is the same book that came with the DS game in Japan). That is why I've passed on this expesive edition and will wait impatiently for the price drops for the regular edition. Had it been a nice thick artbook or a nice guide I would have probably preordered.

Cheers, got the code activated. Only "redeemed" Edge for now, but it seems for most mags it's better to just choose "single issue" as you get either 18 single mags or 6 subs - but most of the subs like Edge are only 1 issue anyway, so presumably they're the same.

What was wrong with it?

Nothing in particular, it just did not feel like a nice item I would like to pay a respectable quantity for. No nice content to look at imo, and I did not like the overall feel of the book either. Felt more like a gimmick than a real book. It was just probably a very personal thing, I guess it will be in many gaffers hands in a matter of days and they'll probably love it.
 
Holy crap. My Looney Tunes Limited Edition was dispatched last thursday (from Canada!) and arrived today lol no idea how they managed to do this. And it's-beautiful.jpg

Yeah mine arrived yesterday. Really quick and wasn't expecting it for another few weeks. It's a nice edition. Not quite sure why I bought it lol but it's nice all the same.
 
Ok this is incredible. I have pre-ordered Ni No Kuni Wizard Edition from Shop2. I am not in the UK, for some strange (technical issue?) during the checkout process I was not asked to select shipping option, as usual. I still received the pre-order confirmation.

Following this I emailed them asking about the postage cost and they said that they will check about it and get back to me.

Instead of doing so they have deleted my account, without even saying a word about this, and obviously I have lost my pre-order.

Fuck.

Some people said in the other thread they couldn't ship them out of the UK anyway. Apparently it's too big for royal mail, and they haven't got a deal set up with a courier for international shipping.

They deleted your account? That's one messed up store...

Really?!
Wow that is pretty sucky.
I'm glad Amazon does ship large package, it really surprised me when I got the box for the Guild Wars 2 Collectors Edition, I almost thought there would be 2 editions in it.
 
Anyone ever got problems on PlayTrade (play.com)?

I tried to contact the seller some weeks ago. Didn't reply at all. And last thursday I contacted play.com support about not receiving that one order.

I then received an email stating "FairPlay claim raised" and:

The seller has been asked to contact you to resolve this issue. We need to
allow the seller 3 working days to resolve this claim. If the claim has
not been resolved by the 4th working day then Play.com will resolve the
claim for you.

And since then nothing. I'm not sure how they count. If they include Thursday in their calculation, even 4 working days have passed now. I could theoretically also call up my creditcard company and get the money back that way, would have to check how much time I got left for that. Am I supposed to contact them now again? They should actually see that the seller hasn't contacted me at all.

Should have ordered it from zavvi :(

EDIT: Just contacted them again. If I only knew, if they would refund me. I guess that's the only option now, seller doesn't reply at all. When play.com goes PlayTrade-only, I will close down my play account - I'm really sick of this shit.

EDIT2: Got a reply now.
"In regards to your order fairplay claim: xxx a full refund has been processed and will appear on your statement within 3-5 days"

I read all sorts of horror stories about PlayTrade yesterday, I guess I'm lucky. If anyone has such problems, contact play directly via http://www.play.com/en/Helpdesk/Contact_us/PlayTrade_issues.aspx it's a bit hidden. Everything else seems to get ignored.

Zavvi had the BluRays on sale the last few days. They changed the price back up today :( Such a shame.

i dont know guys but amazon.de is still seling the wizard edition for arround 80€
Yeah and I just had a chat with one guy from their customer service who assured me "if you ordered it, you'll get it" (which isn't always the case with amazon.de pre-orders). 'Cause I was getting a little nervous there, with it being still available and stuff.
 
After reading he Ni No Kuni WE thread, and bits of this one, I have decided there has been enough fuck ups by various companies with the WE to result in some stock going unsold.

...I have decided it will get cheaper and some point, and I will wait for that to happen.

This may be a mistake
