doesnt matter if they are half seasons, they are excellent *puts on sunglasses and places hands on hips a la horatio kane*

Yeah I saw them in xtravision stillorgan, cant rember off the top of my head what the main offers are, but all the "big" american tv series have reductions on their regular prices. Their are reductions on games of all systems, but i think they are flogging off the newest pc ones especially. They also have a buy 3 dvds/cds for €25 offer, but most fo the products in that are fairly old.

yeah the "pick n mix" thing has a lot of older titles, but there's some absolutely fantastic gems in there. i'm going to be buying loads of it...

They have Clerks X, Chasing Amy and Jay and Silent Bob together for 18 euro, not too bad.

Thinking about that camera/printer deal for a present.

I'm assuming the Canon will be much better quality than the HP one?

Are you sure the Canon one in Xtravision is 199? It says 250 here:( http://xtravision.ie/xvElectrical.asp?id=373

Can't find much info of the hp one online, in comparison to the Canon one anyway, it's not on dpreview.com

Does the HP one record video+sound? Is the quality good?

I picked up a 4 mega pixel Canon Powershot A420 & Selphy printer bundle from Argos for €150 before Xmas (The camera wasn't for me so I can't tell you how good, or bad, it is).

The A430 is slightly better but I really wouldn't consider the Xtra Vision offer a bargain... even for €200.

Amazon.co.uk has been selling the camera solus for some time for < €120

Here be a technical comparison between the A420 and A430 for you to decide if its worth the Xtra: http://www.dpreview.com/news/0602/06022107canona420.asp

Hope this helps you decide. :cool:

There was a thread on it a while back and I posted a review on it. I'll try and dig it up again

This was for PC World. They may have a few left but I saw a stack of them in Power City on the Fonthill Road yesterday

cormie

Ok thanks, mightn't even bother with the printer package and just go for another camera for around the same price because it's for a gift and the person it's for is a bit of a technophobe so it would be much easier for them to just hand the card into a shop to get prints than have to deal with cartridges and everything like that:o

Anyone know of any good sales on cameras for around the same price?

the corpo

The box I brought up to the counter looked worn, but the guy came back out with a new copy wrapped in plastic. Lovely.

Time Magazine

You can tell if a game is previously owned/previously played by whether or not is has the distinctive (read "stupid") orange stickers that wrap around to the spine. If they have them, they're old.
