| I think this is like some equivalent of this site Neo just told me about the other day. http://www.ozgameshop.com/Looks pretty amazing. Free shipping, awesome prices. | |

| Well shit, this is awesome. The only thing that's going to keep me from buying all of my games there is pre-order bonuses and newer games look to reach into the $70+. | |

They're not all cheap, of course but hell if I can pay a good few bucks less for a game without paying for shipping then why the hell not? | |

| I save quite a lot. The RRP for games here is around $100 AUD. I'd be paying like $60 for new games from that site. | |

| Oh i guess free international shipping could get you a few potential amazing deals, our game pricing is weird here, they're all over the place. You also get a lot of one day or one week offers. | |

| Yeah, it didn't make much difference before, because shipping was expensive and our dollar was slightly more than half the USD. But now it's hovering at around 1:1, so there's really no point in buying games here, aside from DLC compatibility. Just too expensive and all. But now that site has eliminated that, so it's awesome in my eyes. | |

| 365games owns Ozgameshop. Awesome site though, I ordered AC: Brotherhood for $61 (price at a retail store here would be at least $100) and a new controller for $57 instead of $80-$90.
For the record, when a game goes into the Platinum/Greatest Hits range in Australia the price goes down to around $50 from retail stores. | |

| Yeah, when it would be about $30 in the US.
So you ended up getting that candy pink controller? Champ. I'm going to get it eventually, when I finally buy a game and set up a paypal account. But I cbf as of yet. | |

Hell yeah, I looked at all the other controllers they had and they were all a bit more expensive for some reason, not that having a pink controller bothers me. | |

| $35-40
either way though look at that site you posted earlier, and add on the 5 pounds for P and P and this site is cheaper. Also its a reliable vendor as its the biggest chain in this country. | |

| Its worth checkin back every few days ago as games price crash and shoot back up, castlevania was 40 pounds yesterday and its was 23 pounds on the day i bought it but it then sold out and went back up to 40.
I check it regularly enough though so if you get any games you been thinking about in particular let me know and i'll keep an eye out. | |

| Got my first delivery from Ozgameshop today, came in the original shrinkwrap inside a bubblewrap envelope. The disc had become loose inside the case, presumably at some point during the shipping process, but it was in perfect condition. Saved myself $50 off the local retail price, I'll happily order from them again. | |
