    Hi there...

    Trying to get a sense of how much I should expect to pay for a DS Lite in shops in Ireland. The only price I've seen so far is in Zavvi, which is around €210-€240 for the DS Lite, an 'Accessories Pack', and 2 or 3 free games. Does anyone know how much just a DS Lite on its own should cost, and where I'd get a good price? Thanks...

    A DS on it's own will cost you about €130

    That's more what I had in mind, the €240 price took me a bit by surprise. Are those 'Accessories' and 3 Games worth the extra do you think?

    Accessory pack.....i dont think so. But it all depends on what is in it!
    Games....well it just depends on what games you get. Most places only give you a choice of certain games!

    No problem!

    Your best bet is to check as many shops as possible, because each shop has different deals on offer

    That was my plan, but it's so hard this time of year, there are massive queues in the shops and no-one around to actually ask for advice / prices etc, unless you queue and then when you get to the top ask them. I guess I'll just have to be more patient! :)
