I was in the Tesco in Liverpool ONE over Christmas and they had a basket full of plastic instruments on the cheap - DJ Hero 2 for £30 (all 3 systems), RB3 with Keyboard for £20 (all 3 systems) and RB3 Stratocasters for £15 (360 and Wii only)

If anyone can find a 360 RB3 Keyboard at their Tesco's for that price (plus strat if there's one around) I have gratitude (& money) waiting

Hey guys, just wanted to ask if anyone know of any good places to get NTSC wii games. I'm currently looking at Amazon.com, Videogamesplus.ca and Play-Asia, so i was just wondering if i had missed a good website.

Amazon is probably my best bet, even if shipping is a bit expensive.

Gamestop.com could be an option. Shipping is kind of dear ($15-$25 depending on where in Europe you are; it is UPS; here in the UK for the 2 orders I did I had the items in less than 48 hours) prices might not be too good and used games have a risk of coming without manuals or boxes (maybe not even working in some extreme situations) due to daft policies.

I've never made any orders that breach the £18 (excluding shipping) level (so don't know how badly UPS hit you with customs, i.e. are they worse than Royal Mail).

You pretty much always get hit with UPS from my experience. Especially now that it's gone down to £15, you'll be pushed to buy a game with UPS shipping for under that(Some places include shipping in the total value, even though they shouldn't). It's why I avoid courier shipping. With USPS, Airmail or SAL I rarely get caught unless it's big. I can wait if it means I'm not paying through the roof for import tax.
 
Anyone have any free temporary passes for XBL Gold, friend of mine is using his mates 360 and wants to try out online. PM me, thanks.
 
Hi guys, I am looking for a Nyko Wii Perfect Shot gun shell, So far I've found a couple but most seem a bit expensive, specially when shipping fees are added.

What should be the lowest I could buy it for and where? (gotta have it shipped to Germany)

This generation with it's low prices both depresses and entertains me. I love paying so little for games, but can't help but feel we're doing long term damage to the whole industry... Doesn't mean I'll stop, though.

Maybe we'll just end up pulling prices down across the industry with the quality of content and the financial health of developers remaining unaffected. Maybe.

But already they are charging more with a different way. on disc DLC, DLC, online pass, community membership (that CoD thing).
At least they 17.99'd ultra fast this gen.
19/20 of the times I don't care or plan to buy the above mentioned extra supplements

This generation is the first time games have actually been priced correctly to the value they offer, in my opinion. Publishers need to take note and budget accordingly.

I think it's also cos games are sold all across Europe and not just the UK. Sothey can sell to places like France, Germany etc. I mean look at the people in this thread, theya re from all over Europe but how many times are offers posted from other European countries. hell people from Australia order from the UK.
 
It sickens me to potentially send any business their way, but Sh*pto have the premium digital version for £22.85, which is a couple of quid cheaper than the regular one seems to be anywhere else.
 
ShopTo get way too much shit. They've been one of the most reliable stores I've used next to Amazon. It's shit they had the credit card issues but I don't think as a company they've done anything to justify hate.

They handled the situation in the worst way possible. I don't know about others but they never informed me about the situation, which is very shady. I got hit for the first time ever in years of using CCs. Could resolve it with my CC company while some could not. So I got lucky in the end but they lost my business there and deserve all the hate imo.
