    i buy most of my games online so i have a bit of experience

    www.videogameplus.ca
    for american ps3 games
    games are shipped wednesday
    delivery takes 3 days maybe 4 if your unlucky
    customer care is brilliant

    play.com
    cheaper than the high street shops
    reliable
    can have slow postage
    can have special deals on the games they sell {includes t-shirts etc sometimes}
    postage is free

    playasia

    never used them but iv heard good stuff about them
    opinons are welcomed

    TheHut.com is pretty good.

    Good prices! Just pre-ordered Resistance 2 for €48

    Sadly they don't ship Sony products to PAL territories, great for region free 360 games though!

    Movietyme are always worth checking out, they usually work out about the same as VG+ or even cheaper (but the shipping can take at least a week)
    Shipping is free

    They look pretty good. I normally don't care about how long shipping takes so I don't mind waiting if it means saving a few quid.

    I second videogamesplus.ca great site and usually fast delivery. Games usually work out round 42 where they could be 70 over here and come out about a month later with games like socom and resistance.

    In no particular order;

    videogamesplus.ca

    play.com - great prices occasionally; like FIFA09 for €27.99 last week... :D

    sendit.com - usually a few cent cheaper than play.com in my experience

    and last but by no means least

    gamesnash.com - Irish business - free, fast postage. maybe not quite as cheap as the big players, although some things are actually cheaper. good for pre-orders as you are more or less guaranteed the game on the morning of release.
