I found some Zavvi vouchers while browsing through my old mail. Two 10% off vouchers and one 15% off voucher, expiring tonight. I'm posting them here because the dedicated thread tends to drop off the first page fast, which makes it easy to miss.

You can now... for around €23. ;-)

lol, they've not only fixed it but also almost doubled the original price... Obviously they've gotta recoup those 12€ they've lost with my order XD

Btw, EVERY WOWHD store has 15% off on everything (bar Apple stuff) from now till tonight.
There's just a couple decent ones, thinking about getting The W101 since I've missed it whe it was £27 on Zavvi.

Or maybe preordering DKC TF WiiU for less than €35 (£29) shipped. Watch Dogs is also £31 on preorder, plus a bunch of Resi games on sale.

Does WOW HD (formerly CD-WOW) immediately charge your card/PayPal for preorders?
edit:
reading here it seems they charge you right away for preordering? Fuck that noise

So Saturn's (Germany) "Buy 3 pay 2" promotion on software, games and music starts today at 19:00 offline AND online. The offline part doesn't make that much sense today and tomorrow obviously. Promotion ends 11th of January.

I always end up buying 3DS games during those promotions. Here's Saturn's online 3DS section. So yeah, offline it is.

I cannot answer for sure, but I think it would make little sense in terms of manufacturing. They produce those items on such a massive scale, having separate chips for separate platforms would overly complicate the production line.

But as I said, this is just a theory based on logic. Don't go buying shit just yet - hopefully someone else can provide a definitive answer.

The problem I have with WowHD is that they may send the package from outside EU even if you order from a EU shop.
Not worth it if you have to pay the custom fee IMO.

That's why they're so cheap. I've never had to pay a custom fee myself, though the shipping takes a long time and the customer support is pretty terrible. It's not a safe store but god damn those prices.

Not only that but with some games in the several weeks it can take to arrive you can get a better deal elsewhere.
 
Yeah WOWHD are cheap until you get slapped with customs and they wipe their hands of it. Only ever ordered one item from them Lego Undercover on the WiiU, think it was £32 but then got £11 custom charges on it. Never bothered with them again.

Yeah, it took my rayman legends 6weeks to arrive, they gave me a voucher/refund in the mean time so I ordered another game for free.

Oops, forgot to inform them that rayman arrived ;)

I ordered Dragon Quest V from them years ago and waited for months. Even sent them multiple messages and was always given a stock answer "we are waiting for a restock from our supplier soon".

Needless to say, the game had been out of print for a while when I ordered it. But they were selling it as "in stock".

Also I wouldn't put the word "honor" and Zavvi in the same sentence. Just read through some pages in the thread.

Never had any problems myself. I know people aren't too fond of zavvi around here but dayum! Oh well, paid with credit card so banks problem now..

Wasn't supposed to be 75%?
Thanks for the heads up though, just finished Bioshock Infinite and some additional content is welcomed

The DLC itself isn't on sale (Episode One is £11.99 alone), only the season pass is. Pretty sure it's a mistake.

Also the same now on Amazon UK's online store.

Interesting, I wonder if Amazon have some automatic price matching in place or something?

Seems like they've just decided to run with the mistake from the other day. It was mispriced the same way when BioShock Infinite was a daily and quickly corrected, but they seem to be leaving it up this time, since it still is.
 
Scribblenauts Unlimited (PC) - £3.74 @ Steam

That's great IMO, Think it would be a more compelling game than Unmasked - which is selling for much higer. Bought!

BTW, I am going to keep track of all 2014 purchase in a google Doc. Hope it results in a nice total come the end of the year. £3.74 added!
 
Keyser Soze said:
It was £14,99 @ The Game Collection. This is not that great IMO. Price has collapsed in the UK, so I think it would be best to buy a version you could trade.here isntead of been stuck with a alternate version.

also £15.85 at shoptu just incase you have any of their points

Wow! And i'm not wowwing at the price, but at the amount of copies they ordered. Holy shit! More than 10.000 copies sitting in their warehouse? This game bombed hard. The price has been slashed around the globe. And like Keyser Soze said, price is not great. With the amount of copies they have, you'd think they REALLY want to get rid of it and FAST. I expected something like, at least below $20.

It must be a good deal, because quite a lot of people already jumped on it.

Ends in 20:29:23 or when the item is sold out. Limited to 1 pcs per customer. We currently have 8989 pcs left.

If anyone happens to be browsing and finds the Limited Legend of Zelda 3DS XL for a cheap price anything around £ 135 to £150 please let me know or post a link, will probably cave in at £160

Many thanks in advances
 
So when can we start seeing some serious price drops in Ireland/UK on PS4 games?

I presume when the second round of launch window games are released?

I'd love to pick up BF4/NFS/Knack/Marvel at ~€30
