Think of it this way...
If you don't like the game after playing it for a month, then sell it back or trade it for something you do like. That way, you can at least get most of your money back, or possibly cash and a game that you do want.
It's really not that much of a risk once you think about it. $325 for a game is steep... but the price of this game isn't going to drop considerably within a month's time. So, there's really nothing much to lose.
Excellent news, it is a good game... I wouldn't be surprised if this becomes one of those rare sought after titles! <hr></blockquote>
I agree

but i only got 1 rotd t-shirt - the other was a kof t-shirt
did anybody get 2 rotd t-shirts</strong><hr></blockquote>Customs charge was roughly £25 when I bought mine from the NeoStore. So the total cost was only £5-10 cheaper than normal Prices from VGI.
And how did you manage to get yours VAT-free??

I live in Gibraltar
Not a full member of the european union - so all my stuff from the uk (normally) is vat free
But because we are still part of the Uk - all the stuff i get from Lee comes here via Uk special delivery

Last time i was in town, I had some good challenges in KOF 2001. Everything went fine, until I beat someone with Team China. Then, they selected Lin and wiped the floor with me. Sh*t happens.
I'm going to be in town next weekend as well... one of my friends is DJing at Avalon on Saturday Night, and I'm going to be visiting friends and family. I'll be bringing my copies of KOF 2001 and ROTD on home cart with me in hopes that I can hook up with my old crew for a few hours and play.
