Bargain Bin!

Archive: 18 posts


Use this thread to tell us about your bargains!

I bagged myself a Vita Wifi for ?166 today by registering a new account at Zavvi (5% Off) and using code NEXTDAY for a further ?4.95 off. Pretty good I thought, especially since Amazon have now upped their Vita prices by ?30 and ?40.

Also chucked in Uncharted and a 16GB Memory Card to take advantage of the 5% off, whole lot came to just ?225. On top of that I'll get 2% cashback from Quidco and a tidy 419 Rewardz Points to go towards my next purchase. Snip!

Frequent the above site pretty often. Picked up Catherine for 20 euro a while back from zavvi.com while its still 35-40 euro everywhere else .

Main sites I use are:

amazon.co.uk
zavvi.com
thehut.com (same site as zavvi I think but better pounds to euro exchange rate)
base.com

Also I would highly recommend this controller for 14 pounds. Actually prefer it to the PS3 controller and its a hell of a lot cheaper:

Also recommend the humble indie bundles for anyone who games on PC and likes good indie games .

Don't buy from zavvi unless the savings are substantial, or you can wait!! I ordered some DVD's there for helping with my exams and they took over a month to arrive, as did my copy of dark souls, and some CD's took 2-3 weeks.2012-06-11 07:58:00

I've had the same problem but the timing has been closer to a week.

On the plus side if you don't shop there for a while they send you a code for 10% off to try and tempt you back.

I also had some waits from zavvi but their prices are often worth it. And they seem to have gotten better lately in terms of delivery time. I've found the hut to be quite quick. I live in Ireland and they use Royal Mail so can't really expect them to be as fast as amazon which uses An Post.2012-06-11 09:40:00

Does the Escape Plan DLC count?

I dunno about Europe, but it's only $0.25 in the US store for two weeks! I don't even have the game, and I STILL got the DLC!

Motorstorm R/C is also a freebie on the US store. I dunno how long the deal's going for, though.

Steam holiday sale has the THQ Collection (http://store.steampowered.com/sub/18778/) for only ?19.99.

Not bad for 22 games. Poor THQ.

Phenomenal sale on PSN EU. Though not really a sale as it's a permanent drop due to the THQ bankruptcy!

Darksiders 1 €4
Darksiders 2 €10!!!
Red Faction Guerrilla €5
Red Faction Armageddon €6.19

Also on sale (not permanent)

Batman AA €10
Batman AC €12
Dishonored €24
Sly Trilogy €10!!!
Twisted Metal (PS3) €15

Extra 10% off for PSN+ on the bottom 5.

I highly recommend the Batman games, Sly Trilogy and both Darksiders. Darksiders really really deserved a better fate .
