What is the cheapest option available to me in replacing a DS that broke on christmas day and made a little girl cry, I don't care if it's used.

And when I say cheap I don't care if it's another DS phat, although a DS lite with the better hinge would be preferrable.

I've had a quick look and the cheapest seems to be hovering at £100 for new. Amazon has a good variety of used ones from third party sellers available at around £70: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B000FTQR8K/

Is SendIt.com reliable? I've never used it before. So long as the name isn't starred out when I post this, I'll feel a bit assured.
 
Rayman is still not charting at these super low prices... it will be £4.99 mid-January... I will buy it then, and then demand BG&E2 from Ubisoft.

I thought sendit were just TheHut (like Zavvi etc) but with prices sometimes £2 cheaper to make up for charging £2 delivery.

Yeah, it's another Hut Group front these days. It wasn't originally, but they took it over much like they did Zavvi and so many others.
 
Merry Christmas all!

So I got a PS3 for Christmas, I have since added a £25 PSN card I got from cheapxboxlivecodes. I'd like to put a little more on there but only like £10-15, are there any other sites that do the instant email thing but have lower value cards?

I think the lowest amount is now £25, used to be £20.

If you are brave, use your credit card to fund your wallet but Sony may end up stealing your details and putting rootkits in your cereal.

merry xmas

Ah, that sucks. Yeah after the whole hacking thing I'm wary of putting my details on there, even if it's unlikely to happen twice. Shall have to ponder whether to just get another £25 then. Cheers for the reply. :)

You could always look at our site, or check out the threads people have made on roughly the same subject :) Usually some good advice in those :)

Game has £10 PSN codes and £15 PSN codes and it seems to be an instant email code, but is not discounted. Assume they're reliable but have never used them.

If you haven't ordered a replacement already, check out this guy's shop on eBay:

http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/thegamedoctor/?_trksid=p4340.l2559

(no, this is not me nor do I have any affiliation with him)

He sells refurbished DSLs (fits them with new cases). You can even send in a broken DSL to get money off a refurbished DSL from him.
 
Bulletstorm (360) - £7.99 @ Play

Probably not top of most people's lists, but the cheapest I've seen a new copy for.

Deserved thanks to Keyser and thechemist for the continued deal posting :D Hope everyone's enjoying their Christmas. I still have that cosy satisfied feeling from Christmas dinner yesterday.

Oh, and everyone buy Rayman, it's awesome!
 
Today I managed to find Kirby's Epic Yarn in Blockbuster new (gutted) for £10. Might be worth checking your local branch. My medium-large sized one had 3 copies.
 
Got myself kirby for a tenner, didn't see a great deal else worth shouting about. Only some guy saying "i don't care about graphics, otherwise I wouldn't play cod, would i?" Made me smile :P

Battlefield 3 was £16 on Amazon. I hope some GAFers grabbed a copy.

I was 5 -10 minutes late, and it went down as 100% claimed. :<

Secretly I'm glad because I shouldn't be getting more games, but damn is the only reason I don't have BF3 already is because the shops with the offers keep selling out, not my self restraint.
 
Ordered it already, I was hunched over F5 the minutes before the offer started.

Is it bad that 29€ instead of 25 made me think about getting it or wating until it has a more reasonable price?
 
Well... I am waiting for the expansion to come out. I still haven't played Fallout 3 and New Vegas, so I have a somewhat better excuse, I suppose. But I did think the same thing.
 
Does the Hut ever price match amazon and game?

I see amazon still has dark souls LE ps3 for 23 quid, it's 30 at thehut... unfortunately I'm not in the UK so I get the middle finger when it comes down to affordable shipping at amazon.

(also Play doesn't ship to where I live - Slovenia). Any other decent stores have a good deal going and about 1gbp per item for postage?
 
I thought Amazon UK gave free shipping to international customers with orders of £25 or over? Just grab some, I dunno, Real Triggers with Dark Souls and you're set, no?
