It won't work anymore. I saw it as 4pounds and left it open. I then posted and watched the review. I then read that it said 30pounds. I then clicked order, logged in etc. and it still said 4pounds everywhere. After ordering I searched for it again and it said 30pounds for me as well. So I guess anyone that managed to get to the page when it said 4pounds would have been able to order it at that price.

Thinking of trying out this Flubit thing with Deadly Premonition if I can get a good price. Looks like someone is astroturfing it over at Hotukdeals. Last game I'll be buying for a while I think.

Anyone know of the cheapest black 3DS XL? After yesterdays conference I've got to get one.

Tried using flubit the other day but was disappointed by it. Put in a request, and it told me it would take up to 48 hours.
Checked my email last night and had missed a solitary email from them, telling me I had one hour to make use of their offer. I'd missed it by 3 hours. There hadn't been any emails before that one so I missed out. Although to be fair the saving wasn't amazing anyway.

Anyone had experience with amazon shipments to Sweden? How long do they take roughly? I ordered FE with them and got mail that it was dispatched this morning.
A week or so at the most.

For just the XL on its own... no pack ins...
£130.00ish @ Amazon Italy (€149.00) Red | Blue | Black
Items is on Backorder currently, but if you don't need it right now, and cna wait til early May, this is by far the best price. Postage should not be too big either. Was around £5 for me when I checked, which still keeps it signifiganlty cheaper than elsewhere

With free delivery it could take up to two weeks. My orders usually arrive in a week and a half or so, I believe. I've purchased stuff from Amazon many times but I never really keep track on delivery time. If such things are important to you, then I'd recommend paying more for shipping or buying goods from Swedish stores.

Ofc. I bought this game on a tight budget so price was more important than the shipping time. Was just curious at how long it would take. Week is perfectly fine by me

It also happens every now and then that an order from the UK gets lost, by the way. Amazon offers full refunds in such cases, although you have to wait like 30 days, or something close to that number.
The 48 hour thing is the standard timescale for every request. I've put in a few and they've taken just over a day however. Go read how it works on their website if you want to understand why.
I didn't get an email for any of my offers either, just had to remember to check it. Which is admittedly a bit weird. Hopefully something they'll implement in the future.
Should have added clothing to my order like Keyser.
EDIT: strangely the order is still active "awaiting stock pick"

Are 3DS the same across europe? Would anything be different about getting an italian one rather than a uk?
Thanks
What? Is it available still?

You mean 20... right?
I pre-ordered it some time ago. Think they've all gone now.
Hah! Yes. Typo! Or wishful thinking.

Sadly not. They stopped offering it about a week ago.
Pics here. Could swing either way I'd say...
Edit: There we go...

Thinking of buying a PS3, just can't afford one without having to sell most of my 360 collection of titles that I own
any ideas of when a price drop may happen or when it may be a good idea to buy one pre owned? I know the PS4 is not far off but have seriously been considering a PS3 lately for things like GT5, Killzone and other great titles

Since we're talking about the XL version there's nothing to worry about, it should be exactly the same (stock 3DS would probably have a different power supply plug)
E3 should be the best next place for info on price drop I'm guessing.

I think there was something about Nintendo starting to limit manuals to certain areas in Europe for hardware - so there might not be a English language manual in the box. However, the handheld itself still has all the usual languages to pick from during initial setup.
The PDF of the English manual is available here anyway - if for some reason you ended up needing to reference it.
I wanted to say the plug on the charger's plug would be different but then I remembered...

I've just noticed that the black version of the 3DS on the amazon.it is just the grey one. It's stupid but I just want an all black one and You can only get that with the Monster Hunter bundle at the moment. I'll keep an eye on it though.
Thanks guys and gals.

Why is the white one so expensive? Such a shame.
Takes around the same time for me as well. I'm pretty patient with these things, but if you were to find a really good deal and it goes out of stock the next day, they wouldn't be able to give you an offer as the item has to be in stock when they check it themselves. Actually dispatching items seems slow as well, I submitted payment for Persona 4 four days ago and it is still marked as "processing". Hopefully if the service becomes more popular they can employ a bigger team for a faster turn around.
Speaking of Flubit, They gave an offer of £4.26 for Shinobi to beat the already low price of £5 from Game, has to be worth a go at that price!

My first Flubit purchase has arrived, ordered Far Cry 3 for £18.64 on the 16th, and it's here today the 18th.
Needless to say I'll use them again.
True test might be my Soul Sacrifice pre-order, will it be early, day 1, or late?

Just wanted to say thanks for introducing me to flubit! Managed to get a copy of Devil Survivor Overclocked 3DS for just over £25 thanks to the offer system a day after my Game.co.uk order was cancelled due to lack of stock.
Didn't actually get an email through about the offer being made until I'd taken them up on it - it was just by checking on it at random that I found that there was one.

Where from? I need FC3 for under £20.
My Rising order came from Zavvi via Flubit. I still got a free Mario case!

any deals on a Vita at the moment? I've got money burning a hole in my pocket.

eBay, I managed to get a near new Vita and 32GB memory card for 135 quid recently.

Sony HAVE to do something with Vita soon to try and save it.
I see no reason to buy it now if you are still Vitaless, when they could be stuffing a whole bunch of free games in soon

Well you can get the White one for £159 with a game at least there is that.
PS+ is their start. Their hope will be PS3-only owners will get the two "free" games a month then eventually think "I have all these Vita games and nothing to play them on".
If they don't announce a price cut at E3 I'll be amazed.
Got one for £105 from game second hand, mint condition with everything, £19 PSN+ for the entire year. I learned from the best...thank you T_T
Yep, PS+ is going to get me to buy one. After the price drop of course.
Finally, my Game stock alert was triggered and actually managed to get the item. Usually any alert I get is out of stock again within 5 minutes. The item I got was the Tales of Graces F Special Edition for £20. Get it while you still can.
