Argh, got an email from shopto to say my card had expired when they tried to charge me for Ni No Kuni, which makes sense since I probably haven't used them in years.

Tried to add my card to my account, "The Authorisation has been rejected by the Vendor due to insufficient authentication. Please try a different card."

Tried to just buy the item outright, "The Authorisation has been rejected by the Vendor due to insufficient authentication. Please try a different card."

Tried an entirely different card, "The Authorisation has been rejected by the Vendor due to insufficient authentication. Please try a different card."

WTF is this website? Money has been earmarked on my account (from the second thing, no doubt) but as far as I can tell, the game is still not paid for as far as Shopto are concerned.

Got this sorted now, turns out it was because my address has the word "Flat" in it, haha. I hope they ship today now, pleeeeeeease

It's a Steam game.

BTW It's a crazy price drop. I paid 30 euro for the digital version less than a week ago .... (Good game people, buy it for this price!)
 
Anyone have any info on Greenmangaming planning to start selling PS3 and 360 games? If they offer discount codes like their digital titles, I'll be set for the rest of the year~

Oh and can someone help me with some US Vita games please?
Where's the cheapest to get the US P4G and VLR?

That's $20, for a newly released game that sounds OK but...I expect it to be cheaper down the road.

They already offer them but their discount codes don't work and they don't notify you when they dispatch, which is annoying. There's some decent prices on there even without vouchers.

I've bought from them a couple of times, since they were the cheapest price. Though you have to pay extra for delivery or you won't get them anywhere near release date. And as mentioned above they still don't notify you of dispatch, still a ways to go.
 
I forgot to post that Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen preorder was £14 on Amazon, with price protection. It's gone up to £17.86, but I'm sure it'll still rise before release.

Amazon.co.uk has Assassins Creed and Sonic & All-Stars @ the same price (if anyone outside UK does not want to pay postage).

You can also try to send ZombiU and Rabbids Land to amazon and they will price match it (i did it for AC3 and Sonic).
 
Zavvi customer support continues to makes me go... just wow...

Their support really does not seem to know how to handle this. I made two queries about my order and have now received another answer for my second query.
The first query states I will get a refund of £6. The second says that I won't get a refund. ...

What's wrong with it? Sounds like the same response you'd get from any customer support. They're offering you to get a £6 refund or to return it for a full refund. Why are you still complaining? I'm sorry but you're not going to get your £70-or-so that you requested. No store would ever give you that.

Also, not sure if this is the right place to post this (Is there an active UK/Euro Sale thread?) but I have UK 3DS eShop download codes for Super Mario 3D Land<SOLD and Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask<STILL AVAILABLE from the 3DS XL promotion. which I would like to sell for £15.00 each? I was going to use them myself but after debating for a while I have decided i'm more a retail/physical copy kind of person. Please PM me if interested, first come first served and I accept Paypal. Remember, the codes must be redeemed by the 31st January, and I dont know if they can be used on European eShops.

You may find a better luck selling the codes before expiration by posting here.

You really do continue to amaze me...


If you read my text and quotes properly you see that one response states that they have done no mistake, they won't give any refund for the game unless I return the game because I paid for the standard edition (which is a lie) and that was the only edition they had in stock (but advertised, described it, and sold it falsely as a special edition).

The other states that they had made a mistake and offer a partial refund.

I had already agreed to the partial refund several days before they sent me their next email stating that I would not receive any partial refund. And they also answered to my response and said they would refund me £6 after I received the game. That was two days before I received their no-refund statement.

Thanks, i'll try posting them there once I have fully read the first post, although the thread does look a bit US centric :/
If I dont manage to sell the codes before the 31st I will redeem them on my original 3DS before they expire, then at least my old 3DS might actually get some use!

Hm, I would be interested in Mario 3D Land but only at around £10ish to be honest. Guessing you wouldn't want to go that low, though...

As for Layton, I know a guy who wants the game so I'll ask him and see if he's interested in your £15 offer and let you know.

Edit: Ah, no, he wants a physical copy, so he's out.
