Getting games

Jack burton

Right so basically im getting kind of pissed off always paying a ton for postage for games i get off ebay. So can anyone recommend me a good site or place to get my retro games fix.

Ebay.

Oh wait.



If you're using ebay 'buy it now' you're doing it wrong.

If you're also bidding before the last 10 seconds you're doing it wrong.

Best thing to do is to use ebay and only bid low amounts. You'll get games for cheap eventually.

Oh yeah i usually message the seller and see if we can work out a deal. but usually the shipping costs more than the games, but i suppose I'll just have to take it

What makes it even worse is that if you live in the UK shipping on games is now free!

Although it did mean that the price to Ireland was dropped a small bit.

There are a few good game websites out there, but the postage would be the same.

The only 'cheap' option is buying stuff in Ireland. And you pretty much have access to the best spots with this forum and adverts.ie. That really is the height of it.

yeah i know, the free shipping thing is great, I wish we had a game deals or somthing here, I'd have no money for food but at least a crap ton of games

When it comes down to it, if you really needed to, you could eat the games.

You can't put sandwich in a playstation though. Well, you could but it wouldn't be much fun :pac:

Sure i can cook steak in my 360, that thing is hotter than my oven!

Mostly I'd be looking for megadrive games, I wouldnt even ask you o1s1n because I've seen you MD collection, but anyone else here whos not that into megadrive games, I'd be willing to *cough* trade some stuff for those.

Have a really bad cough lately

keep your instincts and shop around,look on other sites like amazon uk you can get games for pennies,also try the local ebays and email the seller sometimes they will ship overhere,also just have patience some games that you where always after sometimes come up cheaper,oh and if possible try stick to the euro countries to avoid the change over rate,i picked up a snes today *yes i joined the snes side after all these years..
