I hope this isn't another re-run of Tales of Graces Limited Edition...for those of you unaware, Zavvi had a deals on Tales of Graces Limited Edition, only the standard edition was sent out instead.

Well, they dó have the regular edition for sale as well. And it's more expensive. :-)

The difference with the Tales debacle was that they sold the regular edition as if it were the Day-1 edition (which, by definition is only supposed to be available as a preorder.).
 
I think the best one is from Amazon for £149.99 with New Super Mario Brothers 2 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/feature....rd_t=201&pf_rd_p=406625947&pf_rd_i=B008DS4MEQ or £140 for silver, but oos.

It was cheaper a few days ago, but they were price matching Tesco. Don't think it will go that low for a while.

GAME has £40 off the editions with games. https://www.game.co.uk/webapp/wcs/s...reId=10151&cm_sp=deals-_-espot-_-3dsxlbundles

Yeah it was £119 with NSMB2. I'm getting mine in the mail this week.
 
Quick question about the 3DS too many games promotion.

Do I actually need to own the 3DS right now to take advantage of it? I can just buy the games and activate them on the Club Nintendo website right? 3DS might not arrive in time for the end of the promotion.

You don't need a 3DS right now, just to redeem the code at the end on the eshop.

Most of them are out of stock though :(
 
Fuse (PS3) at Play Asia: 25 euro (deal ends in about an hour)

ItalyGAF: if anyone's interested Super Mario 3D Land and Ocarina of Time 3DS are 30€ each at Feltrinelli, only in physical stores though (not sure if it applies to every store in the country but I think so). Sweet price even compared to UK online offers.
 
My Tomb Raider Survival Edition from Zavvi just arrived and it came with some Sainsburys voucher code. Seems like it's £12 off when you purchase items for £60. Only works for new customers. Send me a PM or quote me if you're interested in it. They only ship to UK and N. Ireland I think.
 
Got TLoU from shopto, I don't usually receive stuff on monday if it's from amazon (private courier when the package passes the border, not sure what they use before that) so I am very satisfied, will preorder from them again.

Where do i get the best price for the last of us? Shipping to mainland.
The cheapest is probably zavvi right now, although for a mere 1£ more you can get it from amazon which is much more reliable with shipments and timing.
 
Ordered Luigi's Mansion 2 from Flubit on Thursday, it still isn't marked as dispatched, but processing. Any chance I could be getting it tomorrow and they're slow at updating the site, or am I being too hopeful?

For what it's worth, every order I've made from flubit has had the site tell me it's been dispatched after I've already received the item. It's hard to say for sure though when you'll receive it.

Amazon always adds VAT:

I might be too late, but I'm interested if you dont mind LonelyGreyWolf. Is it valid for home grocery deliveries?
 
Germany, closer to uk than italy.

Oh, my bad, they ship for free to Italy for orders over 25£.

How far away you are is somewhat irrelevant in regards of mainland Europe. It's just as expensive for Amazon to ship to Germany as it is to ship to Italy, however it is of course cheaper for them to ship within UK and more expensive for them to ship to another continent. Anyway, Amazon does not have free shipping to Germany. As far as I know, they do this because there's a German Amazon, and Amazon don't want to compete with themselves. That's just my understanding though.

Also, Tomodachi, I'm pretty sure Amazon UK no longer ships for free to Italy. I think they stopped doing that on June 11th (a week ago). Same goes for Spain.

No worries, you're not too late. I don't know really, all it really says is "Save £12 on your first £60 Sainsbury's online grocery ship". It also says that it excludes shipping fees, so you have to add that on top I suppose.
 
What is the cheapest I can get a PS3-controller with recharchable usb-cable? Preferably official?

Also, whats up with the Uncharted trilogy that was announced last year, did it ever come out?

it did come out when uncharted 3 was released in 2011.
and it did cost 99€.

i never saw it after the launch of UC3, so i wouldnt expect to get it somewhere cheap because its basically just all 3 games wrapped up in a slipcase, so buying them one by one will be cheaper...

That's a good sign at least. I'm pretty much waiting on two games because I need my third code from LM2 to get Animal Crossing in the So Many Games promo. D:

I think I'm going to wait until about 2pm and if it still isn't here or marked as dispatched, ask to cancel the order and buy from shopto.
 
Also, whats up with the Uncharted trilogy that was announced last year, did it ever come out?

Yeah, I own it. It's just the three regular games in one larger box. You even get the platinum version (or whatever it's called, sorry I forgot) of the first two games, which kind of sucks. I got it for a pretty sweet price, so it was cheaper than buying them all individually.

This is what it looks like:

As far as I know, they do this because there's a German Amazon, and Amazon don't want to compete with themselves. That's just my understanding though.

It's also because they somehow ship all their stuff through Amazon Germany which makes ordering at Amazon UK just as fast as ordering from Amazon Germany (so basically it arrives in 1-2 days). As far as I know the free shipping method for other countries takes a lot longer.

Free shipping to the Netherlands can take 1-3 days until shipment (for items that are immediately available) and 3-4 days of actual delivery time.
 
Speaking of fuse where are the super bomba uk special awesome prices?

I'm not sure we're getting this, not in the way we might expect. They shipped such low numbers of it - good luck finding it in a branch of GAME, for example - that this might actually do a Neverdead, and hold its value for a long while.

Sigh, you're right. I knew this would have happened at some point with amazon italia thriving :( Thanks for the info, saves me the heartbreak next time I would have ordered from them.
 
Quick beg, but I'm absolutely itching to play New Leaf today, does anyone have a spare valid Club Nintendo code from the So Many Games promo? I already have two physical codes from Fire Emblem and my gf's copy of AC. I'd be super grateful.


EDIT: Got one, thanks. :)
